Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Alkali Soils of the Yellowstone Valley: From a Preliminary Investigation of the Soils Near Billings, Montana The Yellowstone Valley in Montana is approximately 400 miles in length, but the area which has been especially considered in these investigations is that part of the valley between Billings and Glendive, a distance of about 250 miles. All of the detailed work, however, mentioned in this report was done in the immediate vicinity of Bill ings. The valley at this point is about 6 miles in width. Irrigation has been practiced for twelve or fifteen years. The water for the main ditch supplying the valley at this point is taken out of the river nearly 40 miles above the town of Billings. When the country was first settled and, indeed, above the ditch at the present time, the depth to standing water in the wells was from 20 to 50 feet, and there were no signs of alkali on the surface of the ground. Under the common practice of irrigation, however, an excess ive amount of water has been applied to the land, and seepage waters have accumulated to such a degree that water is now secured in wells at a depth of from 3 to 10 feet in the irrigated district, while many once fertile tracts oii the lower levels are already flooded, and alkali has accumulated on them to such an extent that they are mere bogs and swamps and alkali flats, and the once fertile lands are thrown out as ruined and abandoned tracts. This injury, while not very widespread as yet, has been so serious where the results have appeared that the owners of the land are naturally very much concerned. Fortunately they are prepared to receive kindly and to take advantage of all the information that can be thrown upon the condition.
