Synopsis
Excerpt from Progress Report on Irrigation Experiments in Willamette Valley, Oregon
This valley contains perhaps the largest single body of tillable land, outside of the great Sacramento and San Joaquin valleys in California, in the Pacific Coast or Rocky Mountain States. It is also one of the oldest-settled sections of the West a large part of its prairie and bottom land having been in cultivation for more than fifty years. The rainfall during the winter months is very heavy, but during the summer months it is so light as to constitute almost an arid condition in so far as the production of agricultural crops is concerned.
