DALLAS, OREGON, JUNE 9, 1911,
' The way to build uf Dallas is to pat-
rottizt Dallas ptopl.
While opposed to an occupation tax
on general principles, the Observer Is
rather inclined to commend the Dal
las council for passing an ordinance
that will compel every business man
to contribute to the night watchman
and street sprinkling fund and thus
equalize the burden of expense among
those directly benefited. Heretofore,
a few enterprising merchants have
been obliged to carry the whole load.
The only reasonable criticism of the
new tax measure that can be offered
Is that It does not sufficiently discrim
inate between the small business
houses, carrying light stocks of 'goods
and receiving a comparatively limited
patronage, and the larger concerns,
with their enormously valuable stocks
and enjoying a business amounting to
thousands of dollars each month.
This objection,' however, might be
urged against any form of taxation,
for we think all will agree that an
absolutely Just and equitable assess
raent of property for taxable purposes
has never yet been made. Realizing,
therefore, that the cduncil must deal
with conditions and not with theories,
it is probable that the business men of
Dallas will abide by the new law with
out complaint so long as the revenue
derived therefrom Is sacredly used
for the purpose for which they were
given to understand the ordinance
was being passed.
The Dallas business men who are
patrons of the Observer's Job printing
department are getting a class of
printing equal to that produced by
the best offices in the large cities. The
merchant who sends his orders and
his money to' Portland or Seattle does
so because he prefers to do business
with the foreign concerns, and not
because It la necessary. Happily,
such business men are few In number
here In this Uve valley town, where
the slogan 1b "Build up Dallas by
patronizing Dallas people."

The follwlng Is an address recerftly
delivered before the students of the
Oregon Agricultural College at Cor-
vallls, by John H.' Lewis, , state en
gineer: "Actual construction work Is now In
progress oh the first irrigation pro
ject of any magnitude to be undertak
en In the Willamette Valley, at West
Stayton, and the day Is not far distant
when each stream which enters this
valley will be diverted for Irrigation
purposes!, .
"That Irrigation Is necessary and
will pay, has been demonstrated be
yond any possibility of doubt, and the
fear that the soil will bake and re
fuse to yield readily under the new
treatment Is rapidly disappearing.
"There Is approximately eight mil
lion acres in the Willamette Valley
watershed and three million acres In
the floor of the valley. Including adja
cent low foothills. To say that one
million acres In this valley will be
under Irrigation In the next 20 years
Is not an extravagant statement. The
project under construction contem
plates the Irrigation of 20,000 acres
in Marlon County, and there are five
o'her projects in contemplation which
will be undertaken If the first attempt
Is successful. Knowing many of the
men behind the enterprise, and being
acquainted with the lands, I have no
fear as to a successful outcome.
Plenty of Water.
"The Willamette Valley Is better
supplied with water for Irrigation
purposes than any other valley In
Oregon, and there are practically no
natural obstacles to overcome In the
diversion of this water. Where stor
age 1b not required, land favorably
situated should be irrigated at a cost
ranging from $15 to $25 per acre, or
with storage from $5 to $10 in addi
tion.
"It will not be necessary for the
farmer to await the construction of a
arge project to supply water by grav
ity flow, for It Is believed that an
abundance of water can be had by
sinking a bored well to an under
ground water stratum, which has
been tapped In places ranging from
100 to 160 feet below the surface.
This water Is Bald to be under suffi
cient pressure to bring it within 10 to
25 feet of the surface.
Drainage Necetmary,
"Drainage in some districts should
go hand in hand with Irrigation. The
quick removal of excessive spring
moisture would prevent waterlogging
of the ground, and Increase by several
weeks the length of the growing sea
son. In other districts the drainage
through the porous, gravelly subsoil
is so perfect that the lands are con
sldered of but little value under pres
ent conditions. These lands, when Ir
rigated, will become the most value
ble.
"For many years grain growing has
been the leading Industry of the val
ley, all of which is In private owner
ship. The average farm is probably
820 acres In extent, the tendency be
ing to Increase rather than to dimin
ish such area,, because of the decreas
ed yield, due to constant cropping.
Diversified farming has been urged of
late as a remedy, but this is possible
only on selected lands which are re
tentlve of moisture, or those which
receive moisture through sub-Irriga
tion. It Is not contended that Irrlga
tlon is necessary for all crops, for
deep rooted plants, such as orchards,
are not affected by the long, dry sum
mer. But for truck garden, alfalfa.
clover, small fruits and vegetables,
Irrigation In reasonable quantities is
absolutely necessary for, the highest
yield.
Dairying Important.
"Dairying Is destined to become'
the leading Industry, because of the
mild, open winters. The most serious
obstacle, however, is the long, dry
summer, when It Is necessary to carry
the herd on dry feed, the same as
during the winter months In the East.
This condition, however, can easily
be remedied through the artificial ap
plication of water. It has been con
clusively proved that three full crops
of clover, together with fall pasture,
can be produced with Irrigation
where only one crop, with pasture. Is
available under present conditions.
Also, four crops of alfulfa, with pns
ture, can likewise be produced.
"Less than 7 per cent of the total
precipitation In the Willamette Val
ley falls during the summer months.
During this same period In an Irrigat
ed country the equivalent of the entire
annual precipitation Is applied to the
growing crops. It may be surprising
to know that the summer precipita
tion at Denver, Colorado, Is 4.4 Inch-
at Cheyennev Wyoming, S Inches;
and at Santa Fe, New Mexico, (.2
Inches, as compared with 2.25 Inches
at Eugene. The summer conditions.
therefore, are more arid In the Wil
lamette Valley than In these arid
statea During the spring seed germ
inating peVTod. which la the most de
ficient period for the Irrigator, nature
supplies and distributes the moisture.
At Milan, Italy, where Irrigation has
reached a high state of development
and has been practiced for many
years, the summer precipitation Is
10.1 Inches, ss compared with 2.4
Inches at Eugene. It Is believed that
these comparisons conclusively dem
onstrate a deficiency of summer pre
clpltntion.
Irrigation Vyn.
"That irrigation pays appears to be
demonstrated by the figures published
In the Oregon Countryman by W. I.
Powers, of the Oregon Agricultural
College. These figures are from care
ful experiments, the water being fur
nished by gasoline engine pumping
from underground sources, the lift be
ing about 29 feet
"From four cuttings of Irrigated al
falfa 17 tons of green feed were se
cured per acre, as compared with $
tons from two cuttlnrs on unirrtgat-
ed land, or a gain or 12 tons per sere.
due to Irrigation. Ths increase of j
yield In this rase was 240 per cent.)
Less than one acre foot of wat-r
(142 seres inches) was applied to pro
duce ths remarkable result at a total
coot of $1S 12 per acre. At an aver
age price of $4 per ton for such
feed, the net profit due to Irritation
would amount to $)7 per acre, or 2 42
per cent on the money actually Invent-(
ed to secure such increased yit-ld. If
and distribution of water, estimated
at $2. GO per acre.
Comparative Results.
"From three cuttings of Irrigated
clover 10.2 tons were secured, as com
pared with 4.8 ton's from two cuttings
otr nTrrigated clover, or a gain of
5.5) tons. This is an Increase of 133
per cent, due to the application of 9.9
acre inches of water, at a total annual
cost of $10 per acre. The clover was
weighed when partly cured. . At $4.00
per ton the net profit due to this In
crease of yield would amount to $13.55
per acre, or 135 per cent of the annual
cost. By gravity canal the net profit
due to Irrigation could be increased to
$18.65 per acre, or 371 per cent of
the annual cost.
"By applying 5.35 acre Inches of
water to a potato crop, 140 bushels
of potatoes were secured, as compared
with 60 bushels per acre from simi
larly situated unirrigated field. This
gain of 84 bushels per acre, or '150
per cent, was secured at a total an
nual cost for irrigation of $.66. At
50 cents per bushel the net profit due
to Irrigation amounted to $86.45, or
656 per cent of the cost of producing
such results.
1 Increase of Land Values.
"Accepting the above figures as a
correct index as to what can he ac
complished in the Willamette Valley
through irrigation. It Is easy to figure
how the farmer could well afford to
borrow, even at 10 per cent interest,
all the money to Install an irrigation
system. The Increase In land values
would more than offset such cost. As
such Information accumulates, and
with a few successful projects con
structed, it is easy to conceive such a
boom In. Irrigated lands In the Wil
lamette Valley that Its population will
be Increased ten fold in the near fu
ture. "It seems to me that the commer
cial organizations of the state could
take up no line of promotion which
Would yield greater returns In in
creased population, than by promot
ing the Idea of Irrigation In this beau
tiful valley. It has no greater popu
lation per square, mile than many dry
farming communities of the arid re
gion. Irrigation will therefore do as
much for us as It will in such com
munities.
With our low elevation; mild win
ters, long, dry growing season, con
venlence of rail and water transports
tlon and accessibility to the markets of
the world, I predict a most rapid de
velopment for this valley through the
adoption of this new method of agrl
culture."
