Fl'iroit ChAt lKU: Having read several articles in your paper on the subject of irrigation, I have become somewhat excited over it. ! I am not able to speak from personal ; experience on the subject, but from ob servation am satisfied the people of the valley are neglecting their opportuni-: ties w hen they fail to take hold of the ; irrigation problem. In my raubles 1 ; called on my old friend, Corum, looked ' into his barn, and finding it full of hay asked him how he managed to get so much hay od'of so small a piece of land. ; Irrigat ion, of course, said he. lie point ed to a small piece of land and said. ' " There is a piece of land that has never , had a plow in it, and I cut two big crops from it every season ," and, said he, "your land is better than mine and if you will put water on it you can do as well as that too:'' I fully believe him. Another case in point: a neigh- bor planted one-sixth of an acre in car-, rots and harvested near 150 bushels ifmm the piece; irrigation did it. 1 1 ....i.,,! .wi,iuw,i (r,1,..i., i,wt Un.--ir '",:'. . " 0 niul u'lll Imv 11111' vimiccI n hlc.a llimw-iiuct' if we use any. The lack of irrigation did this. My oats and corn grew well 11s long as it rained last spring, but ns : soon 11s it stomiod raining, the crops j stopped growing, and the result was ' not enough grain to pay for the labor. , Lack of Hood Itiver water did this. ; You can see by this that I have it badly j and if this escapes the waste basket 1 will try hard to bit it again Ax lliltKlATlOX Chaxk.
