Where thu water supply Is limited, sagebrush mantles thu vallejs with gray. In the marshlands are many species of rushes, sedges and tulcs. Thu flora of the basin Is far above tho average lu variety, for hero moot tioithern and southern plants, oddly to, ii nlnglliig. The land Is rich in wild luiru, choke-cherries, huckte borrles, wild gooseberries, wild cur rants, and other economic plants. There aru many spocles of nutritive natlvo grasses; Indeed, thu basin has long been a stockman's summer par adise. Many of tho smaller valleys laro simply large meadows. Thu lower hills surrounding tho I basin aro covered with range grasses, and scattered parks of Juniper, moun tain mahogany und other arid land shrubs. Tho higher lauds aru cov ered with regal forests of red fir, sugar and yellow pine, and cedar. In abundaoco may bo grown tho corcnln (except corn), alfaHa, var ious nutritious grasses, root crops, potatoes, asparagus, celery, all hardy fruits, vegetables and berries. Alfalfa, which has created more wealthy farmers in tne Irrigated West than any other farm product. may be grown in perfection. Two (and In fmorcd sections "reo) crops aru cut each eur, and after tbe last harvest iu vigorous growths pormit of pasturage for stock. Tbe Klamuth section will rival eastern Washington and Oregon In wheat production, both In quality and quantity. Land well cultivated and with plenty or water yields fifty bash els of wluut to tho acre, while dry farming secures from twulvo to twen ty bushels. Tho1 average, under fav orable water conditions, should be tbirty-rlve bushels lo tho aero. Oats yield per acre, with dry farm ing, from twenty-five to thirty bush els; on Irrigated land, sixty bushels; and with exceptionally favorable, con ditions, almost a hundred. Utrley yields, on dry land, twenty-five bush els per acre, which Is always doubled uud often trebled on properly Irri gated land. Kyc also grows well, and peculiarly enough Is often dry farmed as u hay or roughage crop for stock.: Applo raising will prove a profit able occupation In the uplands.
