Wakeley, gen eral passenger agent of tha Burlington, D. Clem Deaver of the road's land depart ment, has returned. Speaking of the trip Mr. Deaver says: "Secretary Fisher waa delighted with everything he saw in connection with the Irrigation projecjfa and will probably recom mend extension In both Nebraska and Wyoming. "Leaving Omaha w traveled to tha North Platte valley and after getting Into the Scott' Bluff country took automobiles and went sixty to seventy miles Into Wyoming, going along the ditches and through the fields of grain. The secretary talked with a large number of the farmers, ascertaining just what they have been dome. In all Instances wa fonnd excellent crops of all kinds. "At Mitchell A Urge meeting waa held, Whera with tha farmers and land owners tha discussion of the construction of th nigh Una ditch, the Laramie canal and several other matters In connection with Irrigation war brought up. Mora Prajeote Planaed. Ta th event th two projects ara put through It will mean th Irrigation of sev eral hundred thousand acres of land in Nebraska, and Wyoming that will be brought under irrigation. Willi th secre tary would not make any promises, the Indications seemed to be that h favored the project. Should the project b recom mended there hi enough money available to make a good start, aa the army board has set aside $4,8)0,000 to be used for this purpose. "A run waa made to th Crow Indian agency, where a stop was mad. There an Indian brought In a large box of veg etables and flowers of his own raising, pre senting them to the' secretary. "On the Huntley project, where a few ' years ago 467 farmer filed under th pro visions of the irrigation laws, each of them taking forty acres, we found that all but eight had complied with th required con ditions. Of these eight th secretary ex tended the time of four and cancelled the entries of the others. Fisher Meets Settlers. "At Powell th secretary held an en thusiastic meeting with th settlers and water users In that vicinity. There the settlers urged that the annual payments for the first five years after entry be made lighter and extra amounts b added to the payments of the last five . years, contending that entrymen for the first few years after going upon their land were not as well able to pay aa after they got their land under cultivation. It waa evi dent that the secretary took this view of th situation and may make a recommen dation to this effect. "At Cody, Wyo., a committee of cttlsenai took th secretary and party In automo biles and drov over the area of th Ore gon basin project. For this work th army board haa appropriated $2,000,000, which can b used aa the preliminaries are out of the way. It is figured that this sum, together with th amount that will be realised from the sale of land, will complete tha canals and th reservoirs." Two Temperance Unions Elect Officers One Meets at the Y.
