The President on Irrigation The following message from the president was read at the fourteenth irrigation congress now in session at Boise, Idaho: To the Officers and Members of the Irrigation Congress—Boise, Idaho: Operations under the Reclamation Act, which I signed on June 17, 1902, have been carried on energetically during the four years since that date. The reclamation service, consisting of over 400 skilled engineers and experts in various lines, has been organized, and it is now handling the work with rapidity and effectiveness. Construction is already advanced on twenty-three great enterprises in the arid states and territories. Over 1,000,000 acres of land have been laid out for irrigation, and of this 200,000 acres are now under ditch; 800 miles of canals and ditches and 30,000 feet of tunnel have been completed; and 16,000,000 cubic yards of earth and 3,000,000 cubic yards of rock have been moved. Detailed topographic surveys have been extended over 10,000 square miles of territory within which the reclamation work is located, and 20,000 miles of level lines have been run. Three hundred buildings, including offices and sleeping quarters for workmen, have been erected by the reclamation service, and about an equal number by the contractors. Over 10,000 men and 5,000 horses are at present employed. The period of general surveys and examinations for projects is past. Effort is now concentrated in getting the water upon a sufficient area of irrigable land in each project to put it upon a revenue-producing basis. To bring all the projects to this point will require upwards of $40,000,000, which amount it is estimated, will be available from the receipts from the disposal of public lands for the years 1901-1908. horses are at present employed. The period of general surveys and examinations for projects is past. Effort is now concentrated in getting the water upon a sufficient area of irrigable land in each project to put it upon a revenue-producing basis. To bring all the projects to this point will require upwards of $40,000,000, which amount it is estimated, will be available from the receipts from the disposal of public lands for the years 1901-1908. We may well congratulate ourselves upon the rapid progress already made, and rejoice that the infancy of the work has been safely passed. But we must not forget that there are dangers and difficulties still ahead, and that only unbroken vigilance, efficiency, integrity, and good sense will suffice to prevent disaster. There is now no question as to where the work shall be done, how it shall be done, or the precise way in which the expenditures shall be made. All that is settled. There remains, however, the critical question of how best to utilize the reclaimed lands by putting them into the hands of actual cultivators and homemakers, who will return the original outlay in annual installments paid back into the reclamation fund; the question of seeing that the lands are used for homes, and not for purposes of speculation or for the building up of large fortunes. The question is by no means simple. It is easy to make plans and spend money. During the time when the government is making a great investment like this, the men in charge are praised and the rapid progress is commended. But when the time comes for the government to demand the refund of the investment under the terms of the law, then the law itself will be put to the test, and the quality of its administration will appear. The pressing danger just now springs from the desire of nearly every man to get and hold as much land as he can, whether he can handle it profitably or not, and whether or not it is for the interest of the community that he should have it. The prosperity of the present irrigated areas came from the subdivision of the land, the consequent intensive cultivation. With an adequate supply of water, a farm of 5 acres in some parts of the arid west, or of 40 acres elsewhere, is as large as may be successfully tilled by one family. When therefore a man attempts to made by the government turning to the treasury, it expect that the people of will consider direct appropriate work. Let us give the service a chance to utilize our investment a second time because such increase. I look with great confidence to this. By the side of the Reclamation Service there has grown up a vice of not less interest and you of the West. This is Service, which was created charge of the forest reserves ferred from the Interior Department to the Department of Agriculture forest policy of the admits which the Forest Service is in carrying out, is based often said, on the vigorous make every resource of these contribute in the high to the permanent prosper people who depend upon ever the time should come western forests are destroy will disappear with them the city of the stockman, the lumberman, and the railroad most important of all, the snail man who cultivates his own know that you are with me inention to preserve the timber water, and the grass by fully, but wisely and conserve We propose to do this three freest and most cordial cooperation between the Government and who is in sympathy with this wisdom of which no knows the facts can for a moment. It is now less than two yeah Forest Service was essex It had a great task before it or reorganize the service on forest reserves and to ascertain meet the very different locations and local needs all over This task is not finished, and it could not have been finished short a time. But the work carried forward with energy intelligence, and enough has been to show how our forest policy ing out. The result of first importance as irrigators is this: The Forest Service has proved that forest fir controlled, by controlling their one-tenth of 1 per cent of the forest reserves was burned 1905. This achievement was to get and hold as much land as he can, whether he can handle it profitably or not, and whether or not it is for the interest of the community that he should have it. The prosperity of the present irrigated areas came from the subdivision of the land, the consequent intensive cultivation. With an adequate supply of water, a farm of 5 acres in some parts of the arid west, or of 40 acres elsewhere, is as large as may be successfully tilled by one family. When, therefore, a man attempts to hold 160 acres of land completely irrigated by government work, he is preventing others from acquiring a home, and is actually keeping down the population of the state. Speculating in lands reclaimed by the government must be checked at any cost. The object of the reclamation act is not make money, but to make homes. Therefore, the requirement of the reclamation act that the size of the farm unit shall be limited in each region to the area which will comfortably support one family must be enforced in letter and in spirit. This does not mean that the farm unit shall be sufficient for the present family with its future grown children and grandchildren but rather that during the ten years of payment the area assigned for each family shall be sufficient to support it. When once the farms have been fully tilled by freeholders, little danger of land monopoly will remain. This great meeting of practical irrigators should give particular attention to this problem and others of the same kind. You should, and I doubt not that you will, give your effectual support to the officers of the government in making the reclamation law successful in all respects, and particularly in getting back the original invest- MATARRH ELY'S CREAM BALM CURES COLD IN CATARRH HEAD ROSE-COLD HEAD HAY-FEVER 50 CTS.

Lands in the forest reserves that are more valuable for agriculture than for forest purposes are being opened to settlement and entry as fast as their agricultural character can be ascertained. There is therefore no longer excuse for saying that the reserves retard the legitimate settlement and development of the country. On the contrary, they promote and sustain that development, and they will do so in no way more powerfully than through their direct contributions to the schools and roads. Ten per cent of all the money received from the forest reserves goes to the States for the use of the counties in which the reserves lie, to be used for schools and roads. The amount of this contribution is nearly $70,000 for the first year. It will grow steadily larger, and will Santa Fe Time Table Effective June 17, 1906. Trains on the Santa Fe But the work has been forward with energy and increasingly enough has been done now our forest policy is workful of first importance to you. It is this: The Forest Service proved that forest fires can be easily by controlling them. Only 1 per cent of the area of preserves was burned over in its achievement was due both to best Service and to the effect-ance of settlers and others in the reserves. Everything the forest has ever spent upon its it is a small price to pay for judge that the streams which prosperity can be and are from the ever-present forest fires.

This most condition of mutual help welcome to you as it is to the nation and to the stockmen men it means more, and grass; to you, because of protection and wiser use of it means steadier stream water. Of forest-reserve timber to rivers, lumbermen, and other increasing very rapidly, and also the reserves are succeding a growing demand. contrary, they promote and sustain that development, and they will do so in no way more powerfully than through their direct contributions to the schools and roads. Ten per cent of all the money received from the forest reserves goes to the States for the use of the counties in which the reserves lie, to be used for schools and roads. The amount of this contribution is nearly $70,000 for the first year. It will grow steadily larger, and will form a certain and permanent source of income, which would not have been the case with the taxes whose place it takes. Finally, a body of intelligent, practical, well-trained men, citizens of the West, is being built up—men in whose hands the public interests, including your own, are and will be safe. All these results are good; but they have not been achieved by the Forest Service alone. On the contrary, they represent also the needs and suggestions of the people of the whole West. They embody constant changes and adjustments to meet these suggestions and needs. The forest policy of the Government in the West has now become what the West desired it to be. It is a National policy—wider than the boundaries of any State, and larger than the interests of any single industry. Of course it can not give any set of men exactly as they would choose. Undoubtedly the irrigator would often like to have less stock on his watersheds, while the stockman wants more. The lumberman would like to cut more timber, the settler and the miner would often like him to cut less. The county authorities want to see more money coming in for schools and roads, while the lumberman and stockman object to the rise in value of timber and grass.
