Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ground Water for Irrigation in the Sacramento Valley, California The price Of land is based on its anticipated value under irrigation and not on its value for dry farming. When subdivided, it is sold for two to three times its value for grain-raising, and for many tracts the purchaser must provide the means Of irrigation. The colonizing Of subdivided lands has become a business and is in the main con ducted by reputable firms. A large block Of land is purchased and surveyed into small tracts with provision for roads and perhaps for a town site. Irrigation works may be provided or a demonstration well and pumping plant installed with the intention that the settlers should install private plants, using wells for Obtaining water. Pur Chasers are attracted by agents and advertising. Charges of fraud have been made and doubtless in some cases are justified, but wide publicity and Cooperation among real estate men are eliminating false and exaggerated statements. Intending settlers should exercise cau tion, view the property, compare it with Similar Offers, and be sure that they are getting good land well situated for a fair price. The value of farm land rests primarily on the quality of the soil and the value Of the crops which it will produce, but the price Of similar land varies with proximity to market, towns, and schools, with danger of floods and assessments for reclamation, with the kind of irrigation feasible, and with many other local factors. The formation Of an intelligent judgment will be assisted bya study of reports of the United States Bureau Of Soils, covering large parts Of the valley, which are given in the following list.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irrigation in the Sacramento Valley, California In making a study of the irrigation conditions and possibilities of a drainage basin nearly one-half as large as the State of Illinois, it was found impossible to cover the entire area in a thorough man ner. Besides, such a course did not seem necessary.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ground Waters and Irrigation Enterprises in the Foothill Belt, Southern California Obviously a resource which has become so important to the con tinned welfare of so rich a district is worthy of careful study. Such a study is now under way, and its results are being made known through a number of water-supply papers that are being issued by the United States Geological Survey. The earliest of these to be prepared for distribution were a series of three (nos 137, 138, and 139) relating to the coastal plain which lies between the Coast Range and the Pacific Ocean. These papers did not embody close geologic determinations, but were rather records of the developments of underground waters which had taken place at the time of their issue, with some discussion of the effects of those developments in the region treated in them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Water Resources of California, Vol. 1: Stream Measurements in Sacramento River Basin The great part which the water resources have had in the develop ment of California is evident throughout its history. Repairs to a mill race near Georgetown, Eldorado County, in 1848, led to the discovery of gold, and the development of the gold-mining industry was due largely to the location of the deposits near the water necessary for hydraulicking. The water available for irrigation and domestic supply has been the chief factor in the development of southern California, which now has a population of more than people. The growth of irrigation systems in the great interior valley is bringing about its subdivision into small ranches devoted to the intensive farming which affords almost limitless opportunities to the agriculturist.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Use of Underground Water for Irrigation at Pomona, Cal Much of the water used for irrigation in southern California is pumped from wells, and there are no sections where water is used more economically. This fact has been brought about by a strong combination of influences. One of these is the characteristics of the settlers themselves, who are mostly people of means and education, having come from Eastern States to enjoy the climate and other attractions for which the section is noted. Professional men, busi ness men, and farmers alike have come to lead a retired life and to engage in fruit growing, which 'appealed to them as a method by which they can augment their means and at the same time live a more independent and outdoor life devoid of the hard labor of their former occupations.
