PAGE EIGHT TRRIGATION IS TOPIC BEFORE ROTARY CLUB Plans {o Utilize Missouri in Lecal ‘Project, Explained to Bismarck Rotarians At the Rotary Club luncheon which was held at the McKenzie hotel today noon talks were given by George E. Baker, consulting engi- neer, of Whitehall, Mont.; George H, McMahon, assistant state engi- 5 thresh, Mr. Loh having threshed grown about two miles north and east of Dickinson, rye averaged 18 bushels to the acre. Others were planning on threshing rye this week but damp weather in- terfered ‘and it is possible now the threshing will be postponed until af- ter the wheat harvest is completed. 1 ‘SENATE BEGINS LAST WEEK OF TARIFF DEBATE Washington, Aug. 14—The senate neer; ‘Prof. Elwin F, Chandler, dean| entered todav upon its last week of of the civil engineering department at the University of North Dakota, and George Russ, Walter Sather, and Major Henry, representative for the American Legion. In speaking on the Bismarck Ir- rigation Project, Mr. Baker said that he had found in his trip through the Loop country of the Mouse river that the farmers were much interested in irrigation ‘and thought that by the applying of a sufficient amount of water at the propert time to growing crops the yield of farm products could’ be greatly increased. “Jprigation in North Dakota is, of course, in the early stages of de- velopment,” said Mr, Baker. “Our first problem is to assure the farm- ers who live in the western part of the state and who own good ‘land which is suitable for irrigation and where water is available, that irri- gation pays in dollars, and ents. These men must be educated along this line, It makes no difference how much water we have available, or how good our land is ,or how much we can add to its productivity by irrigation, if the farmers are not willing to employ irrigation, there is nothing gained, It seems to me, therefore,, that the Rotary, and other organizations of progressive | business men, ean do as much or more, than engineers, to carry on this educational work along irriga- «tion lines. “I am not going to say that dry farming in western North Dakota does not payy even though the aver- age rancher in Montana*is now will- ing to admit ‘that he has been chas- ing the wrong rabbit, but I do say that it is not wise for’ the, gmall farmer to put all his eggs in one basket. “I have observed that practically every farmer who has not been do- ing some irrigation along with hia dry farming, has failed utterly, and, in most senses, has, abandoned. his building and other and even his farm,” declared Mr. Baker, Mr. Baker declared that most of the development in the west had been. a, result of small projects,— small projects in grain farming, stock raising, mining, and, in a great measure, in irrigation. Montana’s prosperity has been’ in proportién to her irrigation, said the speaker. He pointed out that climatic and) soil conditions in North | Dakota were very similar to those in Mon- tana. « “My recommendation on this pro- ject, is, that we build theyfirst unit to cover the lower bench,’ which would require a pump lift of appro- ximatély 30 feet,” said Mr. Baker. “The pumping plant would, of ‘course, be located at, or near the new bridge, and the canal would skirt the hill south of the city.
