Farm Unit In Kaon Government Ir
rlgatJiMi Solicnw for Sofriitiflo Pur
Hw idea Wan Origiitatud by
Agricultural Ifcitartmcnt and Has
. 1tomhI Highly Sumnrfol.
Th.it the. Ka.it Umatilla irrigation
project wtll be the scene of a tO-acre
government experiment farm. Is very
probtihle.
While promoting Irrigation In a
general way It is the desire of the
government to directly assist every
farmer who ukes up land. In reaping
the fullot and most complete' reward
from hla labor and with this end In
view the department of agriculture
haa Joined with the reclamation serv
ice. Westvrn men in congress intend to
take up the recommendation of the
secretary of agriculture, requiting
that one farm unit In every govern
ment Irrigation project shall be re
served for use as a national demon
stration farm, for the benefit and In
struction of Eutllers on the respective
projects.
The Idea, Is a good one. and meets
with the hearty approval of the re
clamation service, particularly as It
has worked great benefit to far
mers on large projects which have
been built by private enterprise under
the Carey act.
The Idea of the secretary is to
maintain an experimental farm on
each project, where farm and Irriga
tion experts of his department can Ir
rigate lands, plant crops, and deter
mine what crops are best nulted to the
peculiar soil and climate of each and
every project Furthermore, these
farms will be beneficial In determining
the amount of water required for
various crops, and will serve to dem
onstrate the Inexperienced farmers
how tho w-ater should be applied to
the taod.
On the Twin Falls tract In southern
Idah'j, an experimental or demonstra
tion farm was established last spring,
and it not only served to aid the
farmers on other lands of that pro
ject, but it proved to be the very best
advertisement of the Twin Falls land.
It was a working example of what
those lands would produce under
proper cultivation; It was an object
lesson for every visitor to Twin Falls,
and the experiments conducted on
that farm served not only as a guide,
but as an encouragement to every far
mer In that vicinity.
The government has been quick to
.appreciate the benefits of such farms,
and there is every reason to believe
the secretary's recommendations will
be carried out this session.

Now Traffic Arrangexnont WOl AUow
WlikT Silvio lor tlie Orraxxi Road.
A dispatch from Spokane says In
regard to new traffic arrangement by
which tho O. R. A N. will be able to
reach Into Canadian territory over
the lines of the Canadian Pacific:
What Is Interpreted by railroad men
as an official confirmation of the
story that the Canadian Pacific haa
been accorded traffic privileges with
the O. R. A N. Into Portland la the
announcement of an Ottawa railroad
journal that this deal has been con
summated. This journal stands close
to Canadian Pacific authorities and
Its announcement is that the Canadian
Pacific will share In the Columbia
river busln traffic. .
As local Canadian Pacilfc officials
understand the denl the Canadian has
an agreement with the O. R. A N. for
the transfer of traffic at Spokane.
This would give the Canadian the haul
on business originating in the middle
west. In territory now served almo.t
exclusively by the Hill lines, to the
transfer point at Spokane and would
contribute to the O. R. A N. a share
In the business It has never had.
The Cnnn llan Pacific's Spokane A
International will be opened June IS.
The line from Spokane to St. Paul Is
22 miles shorter than the Hill lines
and the highest point reached by the
Canadian Pacific In crossing the
Rockies is 400 feet below Hill's roads.
