The Yakima Democrat -- VOL. 7 -- No. 12 -- December 1, 1900.

Abstract

"An editorial writer on the P.-I. tells the public a good deal that he don't know about irrigation. The statements made that in no part of Washington is irrigation absolutely necessary and that a crop of wheat may be grown successfully anywhere in Central or Eastern Washington are too absurd to require argument. The misinformed writer ought to visit Yakima and view the results of irrigation before he attempts to write another heavy editorial on the subject."
