enables him to remedy the defects in his land by the ap- 

 plication of substances it needs, and, what is equally of 

 value, it enables him to avoid adding to the soil what he 

 knows it already contains, and will put him upon the 

 search for substances it does need. Moreover, an analysis 

 will indicate to the farmer whether a certain soil is ca- 

 pable or not of producing a good, profitable crop of cer- 

 tain plants, and save him from losing his time, labor, and 

 money planting a crop which can not grow to perfection 

 because of some defect in plant food necessary to plant 

 life. In other words, the farmer will know what to do with 

 his land without guessing, or trying expensive experi 

 ments. This is not ''Book farming," it is common sense.

IRRIGATED 

 LAND 



Open to Settlement 



Some of the richest and most productive farm land 

 in the world lies along the Shoshone and the Big Horn 

 Rivers in the "Big Horn Basin" of Wyoming. Over 

 ten million dollars is being spent by the United States 

 Government and by private enterprise in building 

 great concrete dams and ditches in order to lead an 

 inexhaustible supply of water to irrigate some of the 

 best of these lands and make them independent of 

 rainfall. A great portion of this work is completed, 

 and these lands, with a perpetual supply of water for 

 irrigating them, are now offered you on reasonable 

 terms. 



This is an Unusual Opportunity 



to get a wonderfully productive farm, with water 

 whenever you want it, regardless of rainfall; in a 

 country where a single crop can be made to pay for 

 the land; where 50 bushels of wheat or barley, and 75 

 bushels of oats are commonly grown to the acre; 

 where fruits grow luxuriously and where the glorious 

 air and sunshine, summer and winter, make life a 

 joyous thing. 



This wonderful country is developing fast. 

 Churches and schools abound. The population is 

 intelligent, Godfearing and law-abiding, and any man 

 out there who is half a man has the opportunity to 

 make himself independent. 



Land in this great country is going fast. 

 If you have any thought for the welfare 

 of yourself or children, find out all about 

 this opportunity to-day. 



Send for our new folder with large map, and also 

 folders issued by the private irrigation companies and 

 by the United States Government Reclamation Service 

 giving all information about these lands, terms, etc. 

 Free for the asking. Study these folders and then 

 come with me on my next excursion to the Big Horn 

 Basin and see for yourself. My excursions, which I 

 personally conduct, leave Omaha on the 1st and 3d 

 Tuesday each month, on which days reduced railroad 

 rates are in effect. My services are free to you
