IRRIGATION
IRRIGATION is the science of giving a plant jiust as much moisture as it
needs, and just exactly when it needs it.
IRRIGATION has added more wealth to the country in the last ten years than
any three of the largest resources combined. Thousands of acres of worthless
land hae been reclaimed and some of this land has sold for the highest prices
ever paid for horticultural or agricultural land.
IRRIGATION will reclaim "the desert," (MOO acres will be developed into a
vast orchard district. "The desert" when irrigated will prove to bo the
best orchard laud in the 1 vogue Itiver Valley.
IRRIGATION will make the Rogue River Valley famous for its berries. The
largest yields in the next few years will come from uho desert."
IRRIGATION will add thousands of acres to the producing area of the Roguo
KMver Valley, and in these new districts there will be no crop failure, for irriga
tion is a guarantee of bountiful yields, and is real crop insurance for the
rower.
