Tho
Klamath
Project
Tho Klamath Project is tho name
Unit tins been applied to the reclama
tion of about 100,000 acres of land now
, 'i"r me overnow ol tlio itlamaln
Hiver nml of Lower Klamath Lake and Tulo Lake
nml tin irrigation of about H-0,000 acres of valley
luml iiiljacciit to tlm Klamath River, uIoiik thu course
i,r LoHt Hiver and tho tributary portion of the (treat
plateau lyiiiK chiclly in Klamath County, Oregon, but
iiIho cnibraciiiK a part of tiiskiyou and Modoc Coun
tk'H, Califorila, a total area of 2W,000 acreft.
The l'rojeet embraces the construction of a very
Krunt iniluiiHu of canals, laterals and drainage canals
mnl will Imvu its principal source in Upper Klamath
Liilic. Clear l.nku and JIoiHelly are reservoir sites
.wheru flood water will bo impounded and utilized for
irrigation of land included in the upper portion of
tlio l'rojeet.
Work on tho main canal was started in the Spring
of l'JOli and the llrst unit of nine miles is now com'
pleted. About 13,000 acres of land will be irrigated
from the llrst unit, the laterals for which are being
emiHtriieted under the supervision of the engineers
huviiiK charge of the l'rojeet. lly far the largest
proportion of the land under the first unit is now in
siiKi-'bruHh and must be cleared and broken in time
for crops in the Spring of 1908. Work on the sec
ond unit is being done by the Government and em
braces nineteen miles of main canal and twenty-sis
iiiiliH of laterals to furnish water to about 20,000
nililitionul ucres of land. Work on this unit will be
luiihcculed us rapidly us possible.
Nearly onolialf of (he area to be irrigated is now
under water lo a depth of from one to fifteen feet
mid will be reclaimed by a system of drainage to
lower Ukj level of the rivers and lakes. A large part
of the swamp laud mid practically all of the valley
land in tho Klamuth llasin are held In private own
ership and some in very large tracts which must be
sold in tracts of 1G0 acres or less under the regula
tions Kovcrmui; the perfection of a water-right.
KLAMATH'S For Its development aad prot-
aitBATEST pcrity tho Klamath Basin must have
NEED people, and the right kind of people
at that. Its great need ii Intelll
gent, practical farmers, who understand the meaning
of intensified and diversified farming; men who will
buy land, not for speculative purposes, but with the
idea of clearing off the sagebrush and making per
manent and comfortable homes. Such men art bound
to succeed. There la room for thousands of them.
Developing Suar beets have been grown ex-
Various pcrimcntnlly throughout the Klam-
Industries ath Valley. The percentage of sugar
is Iiiaii, ns will be noted from the
fnllnwiiiK muil.VNiM made by the United States De
partment of Agriculture from beets grown near
sugar in beets, per cent., 'J1.7; sugar in juice, per
tent., LM.l ; cnefllcicnt of purity, 83.1.
llNpcrience has demonstrated that excellent as
pnr.igiiN, unions and celery can be grown, the title
l.iiiiN beiiiK very similar to those of the Sacramento
nml .Sun .Inaipiiu Valleys of California, where such
vi'Ki'talih'H nro so Hticct'safully cultivated. Through
out the world the reclaimed marshlands arc the best
united for the highest development of dairy inter
ests. There is no (iicstion that this will become a sugar
bi'i't producing section and that a number of facto
ries will be built and operated with the development
of the industry.
All kinds of fruit adapted to the temperate zone
thrive here apples, peaches, pears, cherries, prunes,
plums, apricots ami nectarines do well, and small
fruits bear abundantly and of excellent quality.
There nro n great many small orchords throughout
the basin that prove the adoptability of the region
to the profitable production of fruit.
K. L. Smith, former president of the Oregon State
Hoard of Horticulture, gives it as his opinion that
tho foothill lands arc specially adapted to apple
growing.
Cultivation of the potato has passed beyond the
experimental stage, the sandy loam of the uplands
producing them in great abundance.
Klamath County wheat, grown without irrigation,
took the premium at tho New Orleans Exposition.
Tho most important forage crop is alfalfa, the aoil
being peculiarly adapted to its growth.
Excess All landowners being required
Holdings Must lo sell their excess holdings, there
Be Sold Is a largo area of good land for sale
at reasonable figures, prices rang
ing from about $15 to $35 for unimproved, and $20
to $50 per acre tor improved land. Land adjacent
to the principal towns commands burlier prices. The
purchaser pays for the water right at a cost of about
$18 per acre to be paid for in ten equal annual in
stallments without interest. This amounts to less
than the ordinary annual rental paid private ditch
companies. Some of tho irrigators of Klamath Val
ley (and they are tho most prosperous farmers) have
0 1 ready paid out to such companies for water $C0 per
aero and rwn no water. All of these companies havo
been purchased by the Government and included in
tho system.
No public lands will bo open for settlement for
several years.
Climate The uplaud soil la mainly a rich sandy
and loam of great uniformity and composed
Soil largely of disintegrated and eroded lava
with an admixture of volcanio ash and
diatomaceous earth, tho latter material of plant ori
gin, formed in the bottom of the ancient sea which
covered tho greater part of tho Great Basin, and of
which Klamath Valley is a northwesterly extension.
Such soil, characteristic of many of the richest agri
cultural sections of tho world, inolndiug much of
Italy and tho great plaius of India, is extremely fer
tile, and of lasting productiveness. The luko and
title lands are made up of a volcanio soil containing
much orgauio matter; a vegetable accumulation of
ages, and is of a pcatty nature.
The climate is extremely healthful and not severe?
Thero is rarely any Winter weather boforo tho latter
part of December, aud but little toro weather during
the entiro Winter. Tho annual precipitation la about
fifteen Inches, with little rain during the Summer
months.

MILLS ADDITION LOTS
are Advancing In Value
When blocks in Mills Addition were offered
at bargain prices a number of shrewd inves
tors "bought; since that time values have
increased materially.
These Lots are Bargain Boys
at present prices, and there is every reason
to anticipate an advance in prices. Remem
ber these lots are FIFTY feet in width and
ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY FEET
deep more than double the area of most
town lots offered to investors.
