Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report on Irrigation Possibilities in Montana: By the Montana Irrigation Commission In presenting this report on the present development and future possibilities of irrigation in Montana, we ask the reader to bear in mind the financial conditions which have handicapped the Commission and the limited time in which to cover such a vast area. Personal visits were made to every county where interviews were arranged with officials and irrigators. The active cc-operation and interest shown in every locality were very gratifying indeed and the Commission takes this Opportunity of expressing its thanks and appreciation to all those who. Have so generously offered their time and assistance. A great deal of data was gathered on projects which have not been included under the write-up of the counties on account of the excessive volume it would make. Many unusual and interesting data were gathered on pumping schemes, artesian water, hot springs. Seepage, and so forth which could not be included.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irrigation Ought Montana to Aid It if So, How?: A Report to Governor Jos; K. Toole, Being a Supplement to a Report on the State Arid Land Grant Commision Dear Sir: - In examining Arid Land Grant Commission matters I noted that Wyoming had reclaimed much more land, under the Carey Act, than any other state. Interest in the subject led me to a comparison of irrigation conditions, legal and physical, existing in various states. As a result of such study I became convinced there was urgent need for the enactment by Montana of an irrigation code. That conviction prompts submitting to Your Excellency and the public the following. During my investigation I learned that Director S. Fortier of the Montana Experiment Station and Mr. E. C. Kinney, manager of West Gallatin Irrigation Co., were working on the same subject and had arrived at conclusions similar to mine. Both those gentlemen assisted in framing the proposed law herewith and are entitled to credit for persistent endeavors in behalf of this reform. The subject affords material for a volume: the limit of this communication compels omission of much convincing data Those who wish more information will find Bulletins Nos.58, 96, 100, 86 and 104, issued by the Office of Experiment Stations, D. C., very interesting and profitable. All are obtainable at the State Historical Library or the Helena Public Library and some from the issuing office. Irrigation - Ought Montana to Aid it, if So. How? The future of Montana, her growth in wealth and homes, depends first and most on the development of her agricultural resources and that means irrigation, since only in Flathead and Cascade Counties are crops produced without.

This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Small Reservoirs in Wyoming, Montana, and South Dakota Development in the arid West in recent years has proceeded with enormous strides, due almost entirely to irrigation, the water applied to the land being for the most part taken directly from running streams. However, as this development has increased, the amount of available water from streams during the normal irrigation period has decreased, until in order that development may continue it is necessary to augment the normal flow Of the streams. On many mil lions Oi acres Of this arid empire we find streams that are torrential in character, being dry for the greater part Of the year and running only at short intervals during the stormy season. TO provide additional water in the one case and to conserve it in the other, recourse must be had to storage, which is also necessary to beneficially reuse water wasted upon application to the soil.

Download or read book Guide to Irrigation Practice on the Pacific Coast Classic Reprint written by Samuel Fortier and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Guide to Irrigation Practice on the Pacific Coast It is chiefly for the benefit of this class that this Guide has been prepared. The limited space available will not admit of anything like a full discussion of important topics, but references have been made to other publications, which the reader may consult. Many of these are the publications of the Irrigation and Drainage branch of the Office of Experiment Stations, U. S. Department of Agriculture. Where these are referred to herein, the abbreviation "O. E. S." is used. These bulletins may be had on application to Dr. A. C. True, Director O. E. S., Washington, D. C. Owing to the somewhat wide difference in climate, products, and irrigation practice between the Rocky Mountain and Pacific Coast States, it was deemed advisable to adapt the first publication of this series to Pacific Coast conditions. How to Select an Irrigated Farm. The chief points to be considered in selecting an irrigated farm are a healthful and agreeable climate, the adaptability of the location to grow profitable crops, proximity to railroads, towns and markets, the fertility of the soil, a plentiful supply of water, and good drainage. On the Pacific Coast the winters are mild. January, February and March are rainy months, and the long summers are dry. Near the Coast the climate in summer is cool, while farther inland it is warm. One of the most marked advantages favoring the man who improves an irrigated farm is its probable increase in value. When a 40-acre tract can be purchased for $3,000, and in ten years increased in value to $10,000, the owner is making good profits in addition to the crops harvested. In order to reap the benefits of good harvests and an increase in farm values, the crops chosen for a given location must be those best adapted to soil and climate. Perhaps the best test of raw land in its desert state is the native vegetation it supports. Sage-brush, buffalo grass and cactus indicate good land easily worked and well drained. Ink weed, salt bush and salt grass indicate heavier soil, apt to bake when wet, and charged with more or less alkali.
