The public school .system must he

these things can be done with little
outlay of time and money. Tho ques
tion is, why nre thoy not dono?
The answer must lie in tho charac-

the Colorado, preparatory to tho con
struction of reservoirs and digging
of main canals. The Colorado river
will be the Nile or America. From
that stream will be taken water
enough to Irrigate a region that will
support a bigger population than Cal
ifornia now lias. Luckily, too, the
Colorado Is fullest or water In the
summer time, when the crops need
moisture.
"It will be a work of years to carry
the undertaking to completion, but it
will lie the greatest benefit ever con
ferred on the Western people. Once
they get the water on th-MO lands,
which are or great fertility, abundant
crops can be harvested for centuries
and failure of harvests is impossible.
Tlie section I speak of will produce
the finest tropical fruits and choicest
vegetables, and can put them on tho
market fully a month enrller than
they are now gathered In any part of
