tions governing tlm perfection of a water-right.
KLAMATH 'U For itn development and prot-
UREATEST pcrlly tho Klamath BanLn must have
NEED people, and the right kind of people
at that. Ita groat need U intelli
gent, practical fanners, who understand tho meaning
of intensified and diversified farming; men who will
buy land, not for speculative purposes, but with the
idea of clearing off the sagebrush and mailing per
manent and comfortable homes. Such men arc bound
to succeed. Thcro is room for thousands of thorn.
Developing .Sugar beets have been grown ex-
Various ieriiiieutnlly throughout the Klam-
Industries nth Valley. The percentage of sugar
is high, iih will be noted from the
following inuilvHis made hy theaUnitod States I)c
paitment of Agriculture from beets grown near
wigar in beets, per cent,, 21.7; sugar in juice, per
eent.. '-'1 1 ; coefficient of purity, 8'J.l.
I'perieiiee 1ms ilemouatrntul that excellent as
parugus, oiiinns ami eehry can he grown, the tulu
hinds being very himilar to those of the Sacramento
ami Han .loaiiiiu Valleys of California, where Hitch
vegetables are so suecestifully cultivated. Through,
nut the world the reclaimed innr.slilaiid.s are the best
Hinted for tlm highest development of dairy inter
ciita. There is no quchtinu that this will become a sugar
beet producing section mid that a number or facto
ries will he built ami operated with the development
of the industry.
All kinds of fruit adapted to the temperate zone
thrive here tipples, peaches, pears, cherries, prunes,
plums, apricots ami nectarines do well, and small
fruits hear abundantly and of excellent iinlity.
There are a great many hinall orchards throughout
the basin that prove the adaptability of tlm region
to the profitable production of fruit.
V.. L. Smith, former president of tho Oregon State
Hoard of Horticulture, gives it as his opinion that
(ho foothill lauds are .specially adapted to apple
gtowing.
Cultivation of tho potato has passed beyond the
experimental stage, the sandy loam of the uplands
producing them in great abundance.
Klamath County wheat, grown without irrigation,
took the premium nt tho New Orleans Exposition.
Tho most important forage crop is alfalfa, tho soil
being peculiarly adapted to its growth.
Excess All landowners being required
Holdings Must in sell their excess holdings, there
Be Bold is n large area ot good land for sale
nt reasonable figures, prices rang
ing from about $15 to $115 for uuimproved, and $i!0
to $50 per aero tor improved land. Land adjacent
to the principal towns comuinuds hiuber prices. The
purchaser pays for tho water right at n cost of about
$18 per aero to ho paid for in ten equal annual in
stallmeuts without interest. This amounts to less
tbnn tho ordinary annual rental paid privato ditch
rompanies. Some of the irrigators of Klamath Vol
ley (and they nro tho most prosperous farmers) have
already paid out to such companies for water $60 per
ncro and rwn no water. All of these companies havo
been purchased hy tho Government and included in
tho system.
No pnblio lands will bo open for aettlement for
several years.
Olimato Tho upland soil is mainly a rich saudy
and loam of great uniformity and composed
Soil largoly of disintegrated and eroded lava
with on admixture of volcauuT ash and
dlutomitccoua earth, tho latter material of plant ori
gin, formed in tho bottom of tho ancient sea which
covered tho greater part of the Great Uasin, and of
which Klamath Vnlley is n northwesterly extension.
Such soil, characteristic of many of tho richest agri
cultural sections of the world, iuoluding much of
Italy and tho great plains of India, is extremely fer
tile, and of lasting productiveness. Tho lake and
tide lands nro niado up of a volcanie soil containing
inuoh organic matter, a vegetable accumulation of
ages, and is of a peatty nature.
Tho olimato is oxtroincly healthful und not severe.
There is rarely any Winter weather heforo tho hitter
part of December, and but little eero weather during
tho entiro Winter. Tlio nunual precipitation is about
fifteen inches, with little rain during the Summer
months. r
