SEASON Lm WATER INTO SMALL TftACT IN IRRIGATION. 8LOCK ! i ' Canada has commandeered all her ! Forces military, industrial and agri cultural in a brave effort to do ner utmost to help win the war. Men are eroinc out from all walks of life to take places on the fighting line. New hands must be trained to take up the work laid down. It means that those left behind must keep affairs as near normal as possible. They are doing this not only for the present day with its unusual demands, but are wisely looking forward to the after war days and the problems that must be met and solved in re-assimilating Canada's overseas forces and in in telligently distributing the great in flux of immigrants that will turn to Canada as a Land of Promise when it is possible for them to leave war Bcarred,almost hopelessly devastated Europe. The men who are giving their best thought to the solution of this coming problem have come to the conclusion that a great por tion of these people must go onto the land, must become farmers, must be dissuaded from settling in cities and forming a surplusage there. Lord Shaughneesy, president of the Canadian Pacific railway, made the initial move when he announced that he would give 1,000 "ready-made' 'X- ' ' On Irrigation canal. Ml 11 farms" to veterans. Government heads, railway officials, local associa tions and public spirited individuals are working to prepare for the after war stream of humanity. Dry fanning is successful in all the western provinces and many a farmer has won a fortune thereby, but the magic of irrigation brings greater wealth with less effort and irrigation is the theme that occupies the attention of everyone interested in the development of western Can ada. There are government projects, great railway schemes, local associa tion and individual plans for the bringing of precious water to every furrow of the most-out-of-the-way farm. The Western Canada Irrigation association is one of the most active agents for the furthering of irriga tion farming. With Hon. W. R. Motherwell, Saskatchewan's minister of agriculture, as its active presi dent, assisted by experts and farm ers, it is doing a work of incalcoable good. It is to hold its eleventh an nual convention Angust 1-3, at Maple Creek, Saskatchewan. Any one, be he farmer or would-be farmer, American or Canadian, is welcome to attend the meetings or to appeal to the association for infor mation at other times. A splendid program has been prepared, the speakers being men who are au thorities on the subjects they will present, and discussions, open to all, will be in order. Not only do the farmers hear the subjects wsll treat ed from the expert's standpoint, but they may ask him to solve the per sonal problems each has encountered. Maple Creek, the scene of the com ing convention, is an example of what irrigation does for a com munity. In 1883 the Canadian Pacific came through and with it the first families of Maple Creek. These early set tlers brought a few cattle that soon grew into mighty herds that roamed the unfenced prairies. Saskatchewan at that time was only a graiing country and it was not until 1905 that farming made headway. Simple irrigation schemes brought water from the Cypress Hills and soon prairie grasses were supplanted by fields of grain and the herds were moved on to allow the reapers plenty of room. Today there are 190 irriga tion schemes in operation and the 1916 grain crop marketed at Maple Creek amounted to 12.500,000. Into rox ritwi Today.
