350 DRY-FARMING 
cient water for domestic use for one household, and 
irrigated in addition 61 olive trees, 2 cottonwoods, 
8 pepper.trees, 1 date palm, 19 pomegranates, 4 grape- 
vines, 1 fig tree, 9 eucalyptus trees, 1 ash, and 18 mis- 
cellaneous, making.a total of 87 useful trees, mainly 
fruit-bearing, and 32 vines and bushes. (See Fig. 95.) 
If such a result can be obtained with a windmill and 
with water ninety feet below the surface under the 
arid conditions of Arizona, there should be little diffi- 
culty in securing sufficient water over the larger por- 
tions of the dry-farm territory to make possible 
beautiful homesteads. 
The dry-farmer should carefully avoid the temp- 
tation to decry irrigation practices. Irrigation and 
dry-farming of necessity must go hand in hand in 
the development of the great arid regions of the world. 
Neither can well stand alone in the building of great 
commonwealths on the deserts of the earth.
