SOME IRRIGATIOX TALK.It will not do to attempt to throw

cold water on the enthusiasm thathas grown apace in favor of the irri-gation of western soils. The bet-ter way is to catch the spirit of thetimes and try to follow it out tosome natural and legitimate con-

clusion. The eyes of the whole con-

tinent are at a time like this turnedupon the arid west for some remedyagainst future afflictions of a typesimilar to those we are now labor-ing under. Enough is known of thehistory of irrigation, and of thevarious elements requisite to itsfullest measure of success, to in-

spire hope and courage in thebreasts of all home loving people.It is the part of wisdom in a peoplesituated as are the people of allNebraska to desire to know to whatextent irrigation can be made athing practicable among them. Itis not simply the people who areowners of the lands most in need ofirrigation that are interested in thematter; every man whose businessoperations fall within the boundsof the state is more or less directlyinterested in the matter of havingthe waters of the state appropri-ated in a manner that shall securethe greatest benefit to all the peo-

ple.The irrigation problem is at best

a complex thing. But the greatand over-shadowi- ng feature of it allis the question of water supply.Give us water without limit andthe desert can speedily be made toblossom as the rose. Nobody pre-tends that all of the arid portionsof Nebraska can be brought underthe ditch, and it is for this veryreason that the problem assumesthe overwhelming importance thatit does. There must be broughtinto the play the best of skill andeconomy in the distribution of thesewaters. Large sections of the statenow helpless without the friendlyaid of waters that pass them by,can and will be made regularly pro-ductive of all kinds of farm cropswith yields unknown to lands thatdepended upon the uncertainty, in-

sufficiency or irregularity of rain-fall for the making o such crops.With the building of ditches andthe construction of reservoirs in theright places and under certain re-

strictions there can be no failing ofthe water supplies. Nebraska isblessed with rivers that carry im-

mense volumes of water from themountains in the course of the yearand if all this vast volume of waterbe conserved through the interven-tion of the hand of man, and dis-tributed and appropriated in likemanner through man's devices, it isbound to be in line with the evolu-tion of the agriculture of the stateas preordained by Him who doethall things well. Nebraska Farmer.

This is the time to exterminatethe Russian thistle. A little at-tention to this pestiferous weed be-

fore it goes to seed will save a greatdeal of work after the thing hasoverrun the whole farm. If thefarmers will only co-oper- ate withone another in a combined effortto eradicate this evil their successwill be assured. A continuance ofthe spread of this pest will be inpart at least chargeable to thenegligence of the farmers them-selves Bee- -
