Tbs large amount of space In news papers snd periodicals being devoted to farming shows that many of our strongest farm enthusiasts are not farmers. Now that public opinion baa been focused on tbe subject, the public should get some sound Information along definite lines, because this flowery tommyrot about farming that some editors are banding out will do but little good and tends to disgust those who do know something on the subject, writes Ivan Mattson in tbs Farm and Fireside. Last year there were some 14,000,-00acres under Irrigation In our country, and there was water enough for 6.000.- 000 acres more. The government and private companies have already projects under way that will bring our irrigated acreage over the 80.000.000- -acre mark within ten years. Already the projects are being opened np faater than the land can be taken care of. Our irrigated area will far exceed even the above figures, because many minor projects, that are not yet planned, will be planned and executed within the ten years. Opening up Irrigated land la even more difficult problem than opening up a dry farm. The land must be cleared, broken, and leveled, and It Is a hard task for a regular farmer to accomplish, to say nothing of a city man. I had personal experience along that line last summer. The land on the farm where I worked lay in about as fine a condition as a piece of raw land ever did, yet to get this land broken and get the ground ready for a crop and for irrigation cost about seven dollars per acre. The first seasons crop is not a full crop, because the water cannot be evenly distributed; the cost of Irrigating the first season Is heavy, because the water must be watched constantly, dikes must he shoveled up here and there and a raise shoveled through in other places.
