HOW TO GET IRRIGATION
' (Conttinucd from Paso 1.)
was not altogether the plan I had In
mind.
Farmers nnd Duinc.v .Men's Ditch.
I would mnko It a farmers nnd
business men's ditch, asking every
farmer nnd every business man to
subscrlbo for as many shares of stock
as ho could, agreeing to pay for them
In work, feed, provisions, material, or
cash. These aro tho very things we
need, and excepting cash, tho very
things we havo an abundance of. The
thlngB which would be tho samo as
sash aro labor, teams, hay, meat, po
tatoes, canned goods, fruit, flour, ce
ment nnd lumber. What will you
do? It Is not a matter of what you
;an do, the point. Is, will you do what
you can? If you will, then the ditch
could bo built this way.
Use of Stock
The farmer would hold an option
0 buy at tho end of ton years the
vator right that ho was leasing. So,
f ho earned stock by working him
self, or furnishing teams or provi
itons, he need not hold this stock.
lo could trade It off. This is Just
vliat ho should be encouraged to do.
lulld fences and barns; get better
iqulpment, and more live stock, and
.o much of this by trading these
iharcs (irrigation warrants) off.
Home Cnpllal
And here is tho principal point.
Datable capital is not tho best kind
)f capital. I would rather pay In
erest to my neighbor than to send
hat Interest to some capitalist in
'ew York City. Just the samo ns I
tfould rather patronize a homo mor
ihant than a mall order house. Dor
owing money from tho outside Is a
lernlclous habit and bad business If
t can bo handled at home. We are
,o the point whero I doubt If It would
)e wleo to borrow outsido capital II
ve could. Tho thing we are starting
o do now Is something constructive.
In showing tho source of wealth wo
lave to draw on for the promotion of
.(its enterprise I have only gono Into
Jotalla as to one item, namely, labor.
1 have not tho figures as to the num.
jer of teams ar the amount of pro
ducts. 1 know it will only tako a
jmall per cont of the total. The
oains could bo used when otherwise
hoy would bo Idle, Production
would bo Increased when It was
tnown that there wus this extra tle
uand. A fow more potatoes, a few
noio hogs, that is all.
Th's would not leave us worse
, .trnnded but In u more healthy con
lltlon than wo were wheu we started.
Then wo would havo water which
vould double the amount of produc
tion on the 30,000 acres subscribed.
