Irrigation Resources.
"Exclusive of Alaska and (unty
ing possessions," said Mr. F. H.
Newell, Hydroghrapher of the Geo
logical Surve', in speaking of what
is possible in the United States in
the way of irrigation reclamation,
"one-third of the whole United
States is vacant and at the disposal
of Congress. For the most part it
is open to homestead entry and
settlement, and much of it consists
of land possessing great fertility
except for the lack of water. In
different sections are to be found
mountain masses from which Come
perennial streams whose waters
are now used to some extent to
moisten the parched lands. At
intervals there occur local storms
or floods inundating large tracts.
There is available water for the rec
lamation of a considerable portion
of this arid land if it could all be
saved and put to use.
Individual Effort.
Work has been undertaken by
individuals and by corporations to
construct ditches, canals and reser
voirs to supply the lack of mois
ture. As a rule the smaller works
taking water from the perennial
streams have been not only success
ful but sources of great profit to
the owner; the larger works, how
ever, almost equally without excep
tion, have proven financial failures
and their owners have become
bankrupt. The great works, built
in the hope of securing a certain
and permanent revenue drawn from
the farmer have impoverished the
owners, and the latter unwillingly
have become benefactors of the
public.
The General Public the Gainer.

But the work of preparing my an

The Department will be repre

and to what they will have to say
I invite your special attention..
Thru its search for economic plant
that will thrive with little water,
thru its studies in the use of water
for plants that need more, thru its
soil investigation, its forests work,
and in many other ways, the De
partment of Agriculture is working
at the problems which you are met
to consider. These problems are
national in their scope, and it is
most fitting that they shonld be
studied by the agencies of the
National Government.

Floods and Fires.
The water and forest problems
are essentially and primarily ones
of conversation and use. The
waste of water in floods and the
waist of forests by fiio are parallel
losses, each contrary to the be3t
interests of the nation at large, and
each preventable by well-known
means. "Save the Forests and
Store the Floods," is an appiopri-
I ate motto for your Congress.
The vast development which
you are planning can become per
manent only by the junction of
wise conversation with energy ; and
the natural resources, which have
cost you nothing, must be protect
ed and husbanded with the same
trained care which you are making
ready to bestow upon vast systems
of artificial works for irrigation. -
Educate the Nation.
The chief dangers which threat
en your plans one the failure to
secure the building of these great
works, the other the failure to pro
tect the forests from which your
waters came are best met, like
most of the dangers which threaten
our country, by the broad diffusion
of wise principles and ways, of
thought among the people. The
two sister organizations which are
striving for the objects you have
in view, The National Irrigation
Association and the American
Forestry Association, are perhaps
the most useful agents at your
command for this purpose. TJsa
and support them to the full, and
see to it that in every city, town,
and village, East and West, the. peo
ple understand the vital interest nfi
the whole nation in the protection
and wise use of the forest and the
stream.
