In many sectionssurprisingly large crops are obtained without irrigation, thesoil being adapted to retain the moisture absorbed from theslight rainfall, snows and atmosphere, and generously supply-ing it to the growing vegetation. The dreary sagebush plains,touched with the life-giving waters from the springs and moun-tain streams, give astonishing evidence of the vegetativepowers which have long awaited the advent of civilized enter-prise. And it is for man to lead the crystal waters from thelakes and streams to feed the thirsty soil by means of irri-gation, and receive his reward in the rich returns of wonderfulcrops of grains, fruits, vegetables, in fact all vegetation adaptedto the climate.
