It has been found possible to add a stale to the Union without Increasing the number of commonwealths. The answer to this enigmatical statement Is found in the annual report of the rec lamation service, declares the Pitts burgh Gazette-Times. In the twenty years of its existence It has made 1,675,000 acres to blossom and produce, where up to'the time-the service was Inaugurated 'the land' grew only sage brush and was Inhabited only by the jack rabbits, the coyote, the prairie dog and the rattlesnake. Where there was desert now there are nearly 82,000 farms. The crops produced last year on reclaimed areas were of value of nearly 1100,000,000. From an agricul tural standpoint a state, measured by productiveness, has been added equal to fhat of West Virginia or the cons blned values of the crops of Vermont and Connecticut. It la significant, too, that the value of the crops grown on irrigated land averaged $48.25 an acre, against $14.52 an acre for the ten lead ing crops cm non-irrigated land In the. United States. This but recounts the achievements of the reclamation serv ice and does not Include projects un der private enterprise. While It to true that the enterprises which have been carried out were the most feasible, probably, by no means have the possible projects for reclame tlon through Irrigation been exhausted.
