(Continued from page 1.) shown Captain William P. Burton, of I . has been done at Boardman. About 150 farm units were opened by the government three years ago. - All were occupied at once and all have been ex ceedingly successful. It would require many columns to describe the factors that have contributed to the success of that community. The - government built concrete linod canals and later- ils. This had not been done previous ly on other projects, but the lesson had been learned- In the combat with sandy soils. The government. gave the settler 20 years without Interest to pay off the cost of constructing the sys- em. Only a few years ago it requir- 3d the settler to nay In ten install ments, a practical Impossibility. The rovernroent before opening the lands to irrigation gsined control of the price of the private lands and elimi nated speciularton. Public land was rre to the sutler nnrt private lands were held down to J5.00 to $20.00 per icre on ten to 20 years' time. Instead ii being permitted to soar to $500 per ere in the raw. wild state. The bor- i ler method of Irrigation has been re- ently discovered and an agricultural mutton herds In winter seasons Thi angineer was supplied free of charge lis another scientific fact of great vl- o aia the settler In preparing his land ue to both localities that has been en ures and tribulations. Tho new com munity got the benefit Just as the John Day will profit thereby. Alfalfa and other crops of quick return. In stead of the red apple at the foot of the rainbow ten years hence, had been well established as the only crops for new development In this locality. The people of the nearby communities were insistent on these facts and the new comer scarcely dared to attempt new and untried fields that were In vi olation of the well established prin ciples and threatened ruin to the smart one and injury to. the whole community. AH these very funda mental facts have become embedded in the life of the people! of these con tiguous irrigat'on districts. To have opened the John Day ten years ago would have cost the settlers who at tempted Its development hundreds of thousands of dollars more than It will cost them when that event takes place. SiHromful Men Wanted The ultimate object of such devel opment is a successful man on the land and a productive farm. As to the attainment of these ends there can be no question. The land will be worth when developed from $200 to $2S0 per acre subject to water charges. The cost of the water has been estimated at $100 to $12G per acre. Under pres- j eni nign costs this would be greater. No land should be sold to settlers at over $10 to $20 per acre. Both water and land should be on easy terms and government charges would be without Interest. These lands are easy to de velop because of their smoothness and good poll qualities. Changing condi tions would cause changes in our fig ures, but not, relatively, important. OuiHUtlntis Arc Ideal. The climate Is the very best. The district has long growing seasons, short and mild winters, and as It be comes lined with trees and covered with verdure tho usual desert condi tions disappear. The altitude Is low and being In a dry climate, healthful advantages are great. It should be re membered that this- is part of the small area or the Upper Columbia, which is the only locality In this lati tude in the United States that has a low nltltuile and a dry climate. Italy nas mo oiuy similar condition In Eu-. rope. As to markets, rbis region Is tho only possiblo alfalfa district that can be dovcloped so near to Portland and the coast which Is mo rapidly becom ing a great consumer of alfalfa hay ana us products, western Oregon has pasture grasses but needs the feed val ues of alfalfa for its dairy, beef and passing, through the desert stretches along the Columbia Highway otien wonders why people live in this desert when the world is so large. They do not wonder when they reach the highly developed areas. Tey may still be doubtful about the original dosert condition of beautiful fields and pretty home lands and gardens. They do not readily believe In the transformation. To convince the public of the possibil ities of the burning sands of a west ern desert is one of the problems not suits, present and future, of these la boratory experiments will bo suinmar- 'pushed, ! not so easily solved in our laboratory. . There Is nothing resembling the la,' of luxury tinder a sage brush: It It this problem chiefly that the director! of the John Day must meet before they cun realize their ambitions. The public must become Interested' In a large dngree before an' enterprise of. such proportions can be put over. Th merits are beyond question.' The facts for construction are available and the methods pf development well known. Tho work of bringing all these Into ac tion, is t lie tusk that must be accom- MISS ELLEN CASSATT'S PRIZE WINNER GOING OVER THE JUMPS AT SOCIETY HORSE SHOW ' "e Din""- Burnatall.
