Tho bumper fruit crop that will be
produced in tho Payette Valley this
year brings happiness to the hearts*
of everyone, but it also brings worry
to the orcliardist. Already he is con
cerned over how he will get his tree:
properly thinned b cause they are so
greatly overloaded.
This calls to mind the story about
the Kansas farmer who s held to
be a natural pessimist, no matter how

.Million and a Quarter Acres Brought

Five Years—Millions More Next
l ive Years.
W. Ii. Fisher of Twin Falls, Idaho,
announced in the rooms of the Spo
kane chamber of commerce, that more
than ono million two hundred and fif
ty thousand acres of land in Southern
Idaho will be brought under irr'ga
tion within the next five years. The
cost of this work is estimated at
$35,(100,000, among the tracts to
be rec'aimed being the following:
The Salmon, 80,000 acres; the
util Side, 240 000 acres; the North
Sid \ 150,000 acres; the Millier
Sid \ 150,000 acres; the Millier seg.

Civ.'k. 40,000 acres; and tho Bru
ncpu, <100.000 acres, all within a ra
dius of sixty miles of Twin Falls,
some of them in tho immediate vi
einity of that. city.
' The topography is ideal for irri
gation and drainage," said Mr. Fisher
wlin i:, an experienced surveyor and
ei'gineer, "The ground slopes uni
formly for miles, broken by only a
few hills and then gently and just
sufficiently for scenic effects. When
lower Idaho is in full bloom it will

garden spots of America.
"Some of these tracts have been
opened for settlement and settlement

will have water for tho gathering of
1 -»ii.OOO acres tho coming summer
when some parts of other tracts will

"Orcharding is the purpose of most
settlors, but alfalfa and kindred vol
etables: will bo cultivated during the
early seasons and until trees begin
to !)■ ar. Two or three young orchards
began to bear last year, yielding Jon_
athan and Rome Beauty apples of
good quality. As a result of this dém
onstration large areas are being set
ou' by orchardists in many localities.
"The largest enterprise of the field
is tho Brunoau, involving the irriga
tion of 600,000 acres and the ex
penditure of millions of dollars.
Work is to begin next fall, at the la
test. and will occupy more than three
y ars. Water for the first part of
111 tract wi'i be brought from a
point on the Snake river, so m les

"Settlement and improvement of
the lands are contributing greatly to
the developmi nt of Twin-Falls, which
has grown from a quiet village t fl an
active city of 5,000. R, flection of
tho prosperity developed is seen in
This development has increased

than other, perhaps, because of the
outward demonstration.
