On the day that the Mormons first entered the valley, July 24, 1847, the first furrow was plowed in the Great Basin, and that year the agricultural possibilities of Utah were demonstrated. No valley in all the arid regions surpasses this in its natural facilities for irrigation. The water supply comes from the various streams which issue from the Wasatch Mountains into the valley, and from the Jordan River which flows from Utah Lake; and the whole area of the eastern side of the valley is one v...ast net-work of canals and ditches. The development of this system of irrigation has accumulated moisture in the soil, so that a far larger area is now cultivated than appeared possible in the early history of the valley. As stated in the article on agriculture, it was on the outskirts of Salt Lake City that the climax of wheat production in Arnerica was reached, in a yield of over 80 bushels to the acre. The kinds of crops have the greatest acreage in the following order: lucern, wheat, hay, barley, potatoes, corn, rye, orchards, beets and vineyards.
