What Irrigation Has Done Fqr Boise
They have irrigation down to such
a fine point in the Boise valley that
they drain and. recapture the water
from irrigated' districts and Irrigate
other lands with it. It is a case ot
using the same water twice for re
claiming the soil; ,2 '
The man who passed over the sage
brush plains ot that region a genera
tion ago and supposed that men
would never , Inhabit it could not
make himself believe in a visit to It
now that he was looking upon the
same country.
It is densely populated. There are
thriving modern towns all over It.
Nampa, WeiserJ Caldwell, Payette,
Emmett and others have . paved
streets, noble buildings and busy.
thriving people. Every 40, 60, SO or
100 acres of the space between and
around them is a farm, a' farm on
which the owner is making money.;
He Is producing alfalfa from which
he has been getting around J 100 per
acre per year, sometimes more. Veg
etables are grown which are canned
and sold all over the world,. One
cannery puts up a. single vegetable,.
and is one ot the biggest ot the can
neries devoted to a single product in
America. Wheat, fruits, potatoes and
cereals of every variety are grown in
prodigality. . . . '; ,. . . . .
1 Residents there claim that one acre
nf MrHerntAH ltanH ' will siinnnr twn
cows 'seven months in the year, or
produce five to eight tons of alfalfa,
or 14 to 20 tons of corn ensilage.
CatUe and sheep which feed part of
the season in distant mountains and
other summer ranges are driven Into
the valley to be fed through, the
winter. ,'
' The federal government has spent
?16,729,842 on irrigation in Idaho.
The' farmers have spent another
sum. They have a district Irrigation
law there very similar ' to that in
Oregon. , '.."'"'.'-, '
In the Boise valley, 411,000 acres
are under irrigation, ot which 174,-
000 are. In ultivaMon through far
mers' ditches, and 240,000 under
federal projects. The latter is mostly
fed water impounded by the Arrow
Rock dam, 350 feet high, Bald to be
the highest in the world. It forms a
lake 23 miles long and one to three
miles wide, and is 23 miles distant
from Boise. The dam is hollow, and
by a lonr stairway, visitors go down
into its dizzy and gloomy depths. Its
foundation rests on bedrock, 90 feet
below the toed of the impounded
river. The lake is a famous fishing
resort. ,- . ..
' The transformation of this sage
brush desert into a busy beehive of
productivity was the work of. irriga

The process In the Boise and Pay
ette valleys and elsewhere, has raised
Idaho into tar higher Importance, as
a state. In population it is swiftly
gaining on Oregon.'- It is doing the
same in farm production. In area,
Idaho is only .84,800 square miles
against Oregon's 96,000, but it has a
population approximating halt a mil
