In a general review o f irrigation In vestigations in California Elwood Mead, the expert In charge, makes a Btriking exposition o f the value o f irri gation w ater aiul the effect o f irriga tion on California laud value*. Land in southern CallftNjia, which without water for irrigatuja was not worth $5 an acre, is showd to have sold, when irrigated and plashed to orange trees, for $1,700 an acre, and instances are given where a water right o f fifty miners’ inches recently sold for $50,000 and where $3.50 an inch was paid last year for a twenty-four hours’ flow. Speaking o f the great Interior valley o f California, Mr. Mead dechtres that the water supply available there for irrigation without Injury to navigation ought to make of it the E gypt o f the western hemisphere. "W ith in a radius o f five miles,” he says, “ I saw every product o f the temperate and semi- tropical zones which I could call to mind,” and continuing he observes that there are more acres o f irrigable land in the San,Joaquin valley titan are now watered in E gypt from the Nile, where agriculture alone supports over 5,000,000 people. The irrigated lands along the Nile, lie says, support 543 persons to the square mile, while on a thirty-five mile drive in the Sacra mento valley, over what is potentially one o f the most fertile and productive agricultural districts on this continent, he saw only tw o schoolhouses, attend ing which were only fifteen children. The law places absolutely no limit upon the amount c f w ater that any in dividual may claim, and, as a result, more water is claimed from the nine streams studied than could be found in all tlie streams o f the entire ar'd west. In Honey lake basin, where the ordinary spring flow o f all the streams is only about 10,000 inches, the enor mous amount o f 28.000,000 inches Is claimed, which, on the present duty o f w ater In this region. Is enough to Irri gate over 200,000,000 acres o f land. T lie tilings on San Joaquin river amount to over eight times its greatest flood flow, and those on the Sweet w ater river call for 5,000 times the ex isting supply. “ One of my daughter* had ■ terrible case of asthma.
