In order to obtain rainfall data bearing upon river discharge, a 

number of rainfall gages have been est,ablished at various points in 

the mountainous regions of California,. Results obtained at these 

localities during 1900, together with a few figures from other sources, 

are given in the following tables. The first table gives the location of 

the rainfall stations; the second table gives the depth of rainfall, in 

inches, for each month of the year. Similar figures for 1896 are given 

on page ±lS of the Eighteenth Annual Report, Part IV; for 1897, on 

page 530 of the ~ineteenth ..Annual Report, Patt IV; for 1898, on page

WELLS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. 497 

CONSTRUCTION O:E' 'VELLS IN SOL"THERN CALIFORNIA. 

l\1r. H. N. Savage, of National City, California, states that in constructing \Yells in sand and small gravel he puts dO\vn a tube 3 inches 

in diameter, open at the bottom, the lower portion being perforated 

and wound with wire spaced 1 inch between coils. Around this wire 

is \vrapped a wire gauze with 50 meshes to the lineal inch, and outside of this the wire is again ·wound, strips placed longitudinally to 

the pipe being soldered to each turn of the wire. The pipe with this 

perforated tube on the lower end is sunk by forcing muddy water 

down it, lengths being added as the pipe descends. It has been found 

that clear water can not be used successfully, but that a considerable amount of silt must be kept in suspension in the \Yash water. 

Presumably the sediment serves to coat the sand and prevent its 

adhering to the outside of the pipe. 

In adding new joints to the top of the pipe, the change is made with 

great rapidity, so as not to shut off the wash water for more than a 

few seconds. If the water is stopped for a longer period the sand will 

settle against the pipe and prevent further progress. 'Yhen the pipe 

has been settled into position, gravel is immediately shoveled around 

it, while the water is still rising on the outside. About one-half 

cubic yard of gravel is thus shoveled in. As soon as this is done pumping is started, to clean out the welL A centrifugal pump is used for 

the purpose. At first it is necessary to prime the pump often, sometimes every few minutes. Pumping is continued until the sand is 

exhausted-sometimes several days or a week is required to accomplish this. The top of the pipe is then connected to the permanent 

pump, no inside tubing being used. 

Several hundred \Yells, most of them about 50 feet deep, have been 

driven by :Mr. Savage by the common sand-pumping process, 5-inch 

pipe in 10-foot lengths being used for casing, the sand being pumped 

out as the casing is forced down to good water-bearing material. A 

st,rainer, usually made of 3-inch pipe covered with punched brass or 

with wire gauze, is put down inside of the casing, \vith a 2-inch pipe 

extending to the surface of the ground. The annular space between 

the interior of the casing and the exterior of the strainer and suction 

pipe, extending to the surface of the ground, is filled with coarse sand, 

and the casing is withdrawn. 

Usually the supply is from a gang of 30 or 40 wells. Centrifugal 

pumps are used exclusively, generally horizontal compound, discharging with good efficiency into the main pipe line against a head of 50 

to 60 pounds pressure per square inch. 

~ren of these pumping plants have been installed by JHr. Savage for 

the San Diego Land and TO\vn Company, and he makes the following 

statements in regard to them and to the wells which they serve: 

The wells are in a valley of recent sedimentary deposits, consisting .of uneven 

and irregular (a few inches to a few feet thick) strata of water-bearing, sandy 

silt, separated by similar strata of impervious, clayey silt. The best results-
49~ OPERATIONS AT RIVER ST.-\TIONS, 1900.-PART VI. [xo. 52. 

economy of installation, yield of water, and duration of supply-have been obtained 

from wells about 50 feet apart, connected to main suction lines having a pronounced grade away from the pump. The wells were put down by first sand 

pumping through :5-inch standard screw pipe, cut into lengths of about 10 feet, a 

sand pump or bucket with jar and rods being used. The bucket is made of 4-inch 

(outside diameter) casing pipe about 6 feet long. The first section of 5-inch pipe 

being started, a lever is clamped to it. This serves also as a platform upon which 

the men stand while working the sand pump, and when the pipe is being turned 

with the lever their weight assists in forcing it into the ground. Additional lengths 

of pipe are put on as required, and the operation is continued until water-bearing 

sand of sufficient coarseness and thickness of strata is found, when the stminer, 

with sufficient pipe to reach from the bottom of the well to the top of the ground, 

is inserted within the 5-inch pipe. The annular space between the 5-inch pipe and 

the outside of the strainer with its pipe extension is filled with coarse sand or 

gravel, after which the outer or 5-inch pipe is withdrawn. 

The strainer is made of a piece of 3-inch pipe from 2 feet to 4 feet long (depending upon the fineness of the sand-bearing stratum), perforated with t-inch holes 

spaced from 1 inch to 1~- inches between centers. No. 12 B. W. G. wire is 

wound spirally over the perforated section (the spirals being spaced about 1 inch 

apart), which then is covered with a sheet of thin brass punched full of holes 

about t\ inch in diameter. The punch was specially designed for this work. It 

has 24 points (four rows of six in a row), and one blow of the hammer is sufficient, 

the sheet being place<J- on a wood block. The punch makes either a cone or pyramidal truncated indenture through the sheet, which, when wrapped and soldered 

around the perforated pipe, gives a first-class strainer. The diameter of the holes 

punched in the brass sheet is reduced, of course, with the fineness of the waterbearing material. The holes presented to the water-bearing sand are very small, 

and since they increase in diameter toward the pipe, any material fine enough to 

enter does so without obstructing the opening. We use a 2-inch pipe extending 

from the strainer to the top of the ground. 

As each well is completed a No.6 Douglas hand pump is connected to the top, 

and it is thoroughly pumped, to free it from clayey matter and fine sand. Formerly we tested each well with a gasoline-actuated centrifugal pump, and left the 

bottom of the strainer pipe open. We have found it desirable, however, to plug 

the bottom of the strainer before putting it into the well, which of course 

decreases its capacity somewhat, but is imperative in quicksand formations. 

These wells yield 8 or 10 miners' inches each. 

We are obtaining remarkably satisfactory results from horizontal centrifugal 

pumps, either single or compound, actuated by gasoline engines. I have just 

completed a plant, the supply of which is from a small gang of wells, which is 

operated by a No. 3 horizontal compound centrifugal pump actuated by a 

22-horsepower ~asoline engine, the water being discharged into the Sweetwater 

distributing system against 60 pounds pressure. When last measured the plant 

was developing a fraction more than 29 miners' inches. 

There are numerous "tricks" connected with the installation and operation of 

these plants, both in sinking the wells and in operating th\-\ machinery, any one 

of which, we have found to our annoyance, would either make or break the success of the undertaking. 

IRRIGATION IN UTAH VALLEY, UTAH. 1 

INTRODUCTION. 

During the latter half of the month of August, 1899, data were 

obtained for a brief report on the irrigation systems of Utah Valley. 

1 Report of J. S. Baker. 
IRRIGATION IN UTAH VALLEY, UTAH. 499 

Information regarding the history, the area irrigated, etc., was given 

by the presidents and directors of canal companies, by water masters, 

and by those most closely connected with irrigation along the various 

streams. In many cases the statements were from memory, although 

in most cases they were from records. Frequently it was necessary, 

owing to lack of time in which to make observations, to accept 

approximate estimates from those who contributed the information. 

In view of these facts the data are necessarily incomplete and in 

some cases &;re inaccurate, but they give, in a general way, the fact,s 

as they existed. 

Utah Valley is in the north-central portion of the State, between 

the high \Vasatch Range on the east and the low Lake :Mountains 

on the west. There are about 150,000 acres of irrigable land in 

Utah County, most of it in Utah Valley. In 1890 there were 40,195 

acres cultivated, and 36,586 acres irrigated; in 1899 there were about 

65,000 acres irrigated. Utah Lake occupies, when at a mean elevation or "compromise line," about 8±,000 acres in the northwestern 

part of the valley. The agricultural land lies along the eastern and 

southern sides. The upper lands consist of gravel, sand, and loam, 

while the lower lands bordering the lake are sandy loams and in 

many places adjacent to the lake are marshy. 

\Vater for irrigation is supplied by Provo River, Spanish Fork, 

American Fork, Hobble Creek, Peteetnetr Creek, Current Creek, 

Summit Creek, Rock Canyon Creek, Goshen \Varmsprings Creek, 

Salem Pond, Smith Brothers' spring, :Mapleton Union or North reservoir, South }lapleton reservoir, and .Mount N ebo reservoir. The 

principal facts in regard to these sources of supply are given in the 

following table and on succeeding pages:

The methods of irrigation throughoti.t the entire valley are flooding 

for small graim; and grasses and the furrow method for orchards and 

vegetables. The \Yater is distributed on a time basis. 

PROVO RIVER. 

Provo River is the largest stream entering Utah Valley. It has its 

source in the summit of the Uinta :Mountains, on the boundary line 

between Summit and \Yasatch counties, and very near the sources of 

Bear, \Veber, and Duchesne rivers. For about 18 miles it flows 

through a precipitous canyon, which in cases of heavy rainfall yields 

a large run-off. The river is therefore subject to great, fluctuation. 

At the upper end of Provo Canyon is a large valley of the same name. 

This valley is useful to the lower irrigators as an underground storage 

reservoir. A part of the water of the river is applied to the land of 

the valley during the early part, of the season, and reaches the river 

again by seepage shortly after the eommeneement of the low-water 

period, thus inereasing the flow during that season. Indeed, it has 

been suggested by the people of Provo that the irrigators of the upper 

valley be paid to irrigate the uncultivated lands of that valley so as 

to still further increase, by seepage, the fl.mv of the river below at a 

time when water is most needed. Sinee 1883 there haYe been but 

four years in which Provo River has carried a sufficient quantity of 

water to supply the needs of the irrigators below. 

The water of the riyer is allotted as follows: Blue Cliff canal, Timpanogas canal, Provo Bench eanal, one-eighth; Roberts's diteh, Park 

& Nuttall's ditch, Bomb & Riehardson's diteh, Riehmond & Penrod's 

diteh, Stubbs & Furgeson's diteh, \Yest Union canal, two-fifteenths; 

Upper East Union canal, one-twelfth; Lake Bottom eanal, onefifteenth; East Union canal, Factory race, City race, and Tanner's, 

forty-three hundredths; and Little Dry Creek canal, one-fifteenth. 

Blue Cliff canal.-This is the first canal diverting water from Provo River. It 

heads about 2~ miles above the mouth of Provo Canyon, on the north side of the 

st1·eam. The greater part of it was built by the labor of the owners, but small portions were built under contract. In connection with this canal there is contemplated a reservoir on Provo Bench, three-fourths of a mile northwest from the 

mouth of Provo Canyon, with an area of 20 acres, a depth of 10 feet, and a capacity 

of 200 acre-feet. 

'l~mpanogas canal.-This is the Recond canal diverting water from the river. 

It was built entirely by the labor of the appropriators. Measurements made July 

9, 1897, by the water commissioner, Mr. A. L. Booth, of Provo, show a discharge 

of 7.27 second-feet. An annual tax of 50 cents per share, to pay the water master 

and general expenses of operating. is levied on the stock of the company. Considerable trouble has been experienced hy frequent breaks in the embankment, 

which have deprived the irrigators of the use of water for a considerable length of 

time. Measurements for seepage loss were made August 16, 1899, one near the 

head and one 9,500 feet below. At the upper point the discharge was 10.40 secondfeet; at the lower point it was 7.83 second-feet, showing a loss of 2.57 second-feet, 
IRRIGATION IN UTAH VALLEY, UTAH. 501 

or 24.6 per cent of the discharge at the head. This is equal to a loss of 2.6 per 

cent per 1,000 feet. 

Provo Bench canal.-This is the third canal diverting water from the river. 

It heads near the mouth of the canyon, on the west side of the stream. The 

diverting dam is made of two large logs buried to their tops. horizontally, in the bed 

of the stream, at right angles to the current. The lower log, which is 10 feet 

farther downstream, is the higher. On top of the logs planks are spiked trans-

.versely. An apron of '?-inch plank extends from the crest of the dam 20 feet 

downstream. On top of the crest and extending along it is a plank 10 inches 

high. placed on edge. The gates are two in number, each 7 feet high, 6 feet wide, 

and of 2-inch plank. They are operated by a rack and pinion and hand lever. 

The original water rights 'vere acquired by appropriation, but later the canal was 

enlarged and water to fill it was purchased. l\fpasurements for seepage on this 

canal were made August 17, 1899. The loss from that source and from evaporation was -L31 second-feet (equal to 7.4 per cent of the amount at the head) in a 

distance of 1..':1 miles. There are five small ditches di\-erting water from the river 

and from what is known as City Creek. Two of them--Roberts's ditch and Park 

& Nuttall's ditch-are on the west side of the river, ancl three of them-Bomb & 

Richardson's, Richmond & Penrod's, and Stubbs & Furgeson's-are on the east 

side of the river. Measurements of these ditches were made August 17 and 18, 

1899, the results of which are given in the table on page 503. 

tVest Union canal.-This canal is the fourth one diverting water from Provo 

River. It heads 1 mile below the mouth of Provo Canyon, on the west side of the 

stream. It was constructed in 1875-76 by day labor. In 1897 the West Union 

Canal Company consolidated with the Enterprise Canal Company under the name 

of the East Union Canal Company, and the canal was enlarged so as to carry the 

supply of both companies. The water has a rental value of $2 per share per 

annum. J\Ieasurements made on July 9, 1897, showed a discharge of 29.3 secondfeet, and those made on August 4, 1897, a discharge of 30.6 second-feet. The interest in the canal is separate from that in the land; water rights do not go with the 

land, but are bought and sold as other property. Each owner can sell or rent his 

proportion of the water if he does not care to use it, but if he does not sell or rent 

it the company can do so and the revenue goes into the treasury of the company. 

Upper East Union canal.-This is the fifth canal diverting water from the 

river, and the uppermost from City Creek, an old river channel through which 

irrigation water for the city of Provo is taken to the four canals serving it. 

The construction of the Upper East Union canal was begun in 1871 and was 

completed in 1874. It was built by day labor of the appropriators and by contract. The water rights were acquired by original appropriation. One share 

of stock in the company covers the right to the use of enough water to irrigate 1 acre of iand. The canal was designed to carry 30 second-feet of water. 

On July 9, 1897, there -vvere 32.3.') second-feet flowing in it, and on August 4, 1897, 

21.45 second-feet. Measurements made in 1899 will be found in the table on page 

503. The loss in seepage on August 17, 1899, in a distance of 1 mile, was 0.75 

second-foot, or 2.65 per cent of the amount at the head of the canal. 

Lalce Bottom, canal.-This is the sixth canal diverting water from the river, 

and the lowest from the west side. It is taken out about 4 miles below the mouth 

of Provo Canyon. It was constructed in 1861, by the labor of the appropriators. 

Measurements were made July 9, 1897, near the head of the canal, and showed 

a discharge of 15.18 second-feet; those made August 4, 1897, showed a discharge 

of 12 second-feet. A large amount of water seeps into this canal from the irrigated land above, which consists of a deep gravel deposit. Being supplemented 

by seepage water it is not so subject to shortage as are the canals above. 
502 OPERATIONS AT RIVER STATIONS, ]900.-P.A.RT VI. [NO.5;?, 

East Union canal.-This is the seventh canal diverting water from Provo River. 

It is supplied through City Creek. It is nearly parallel to the Upper East Union 

canal, at an average distance of five-eighths of a mile. It was constructed in 1857, 

by the labor of the appropriators. The capacity was designed to be 27 second-feet. 

In 1874, upon the petition of the owners, the canal was placed under the control 

of the city of Provo, for the reason that most of the land under it was within 

the city. The water rights are valued at from 860 to $70 per acre for farms and 

$12.5 per acre for city lots. 

Factory race.-This race is the eighth canal diverting water from the river. 

It is supplied through City Creek. It was enlarged in 1872, when an additional amount of water was appropriated. Its capacity is about G7 second-feet. 

Like the East Union canal, it was placed under municipal control in 1874. About 

three-fifths of the water of this canal is used by the Provo mills for power purposes; the remainder is used for irrigation. 

rranner's race.-This is the tenth canal diverting water from the river. Some 

of the water is used for power purposes, but after having passed the mills it is 

again used for irrigation. The capacity of the canal is about 27 second-feet. It 

was taken under the control of the city of Provo in 1874. 

Little Dry Creek canal.-This is the last and the oldest canal diverting water 

from Provo River. Its headworks are near the northwestern part of the city of 

Provo. It was constructed in 1832, by the labor of the appropriators. On July 

9, 1897, a measurement was made which showed a discharge of 12.5 second-feet; 

on August 4, 1897, another measurement was made which showed a discharge of 

8.8 second-feet. Measurement made in 1899 will be found in the table on page 503.

SPANISH FORK. 

Spanish Fork is the second river of importance in Utah Valley. It 

rises near Soldiers Summit, in the tops of the 'Vasatch :Mountains, 

near the eastern rim of the Great Basin. r:rhroughout the greater 

part of its course it passes through a deep and narrmv canyon about 

30 miles in length, enters "Gtah Valley in the southeast corner, and 

thence flows in a northwesterly direction into Utah Lake. The follo·wing canals divert water from it for irrigation purposes: 

East Bench canaZ.-This canal heads a short distance above the mouth of Spanish Fork Canyon, on the north side of the river. It irrigates the high bench eaot 

of the city of Spanish Fork. 

Salern Irrigation Company's canaZ.-This canal heads a short distance below the 

East Bench canal, but on the south side of the river. It was planned in 1868, and 

was constructed ]n 1869-70, by the labor of the appropriators. Measurements are 

made every year at the head gate, which is 4 feet wide, and the depth varies from 

17 inches down. This is all that is known by the irrigators of the amount of water 

flowing in the canal. As a means of keeping the canal free from sediment and 

aquatic vegetation, it is dredged twice each week during the irrigation season. 

The dredge is made of a railroad rail bent in a V shape, the distance between the 

two ends of t.he rail being equal to the width of the canal. The dredge is fastened 

by the apex, with the flange dovvn, to the rear end of a cart, and is drawn down 

the entire length of the canal. This keeps the canal free from vegetation, prevents 

the accumulation of silt, and eliminates the necessity of an annual clean-up. 

South Field In'igation Company's canal.-This canal is taken out of the river 
504 OPERATIONS AT RIVER STATIONS, 1900.-PART YI. [xo. 52. 

nn the south side, below the Salem canal. It irrigates what is known as the Spanish Fork south field. It was constructed in 1867, partly by labor of the appropriators and partly by contract. :Measurements are made every week, by the water 

master, over a weir board. Measurement made in 1899 is given in the last table 

on this page. 

City ca11al.-This canal heads on the north side of the river, and conducts the 

water northwesterly about 3 miles. to the city of Spanish Fork. The water is used 

for power and for irrigation purposes. After leaving the mills the water used for 

power purposes is again used for irrigation. The water is owned by three companies-Spanish Fork Municipal Corporation, Southeast Field Irrigation Company, 

and Spanish Fork West Field Irrigation Company. The canal was built in 1850, 

by day labor of the appropriators; in 1865 it was enlarged to its present size. To 

the division gates, where the water is divided into the three canals by weir gates, 

as they are called, it is controlled by the city of Spanish Fork. 

Lake Shore canal.-This canal is the last one diverting water from Spanish Fork. 

It heads on the south side of the river, about 3 miles west of the city of Spanish 

Fork. The channel of the river at that point is cut deep into the sandy soil, and 

consequently the canal is very deep.

AMERICAN FORK. 

Beginning at the north end, the fiTst river entering Utah Valley is 

the American Fork. This stream is probably the third in importance. 

It rises in the northeastern part of Utah County, on the western slope 
IRRIGATION IN UTAH VALLEY, UTAH. 505 

of the \Vasatch Mountains, and flows in a south\vesterly direction into 

Utah Lake. The water is used for power and for irrigation purposes. 

It is very cold and is perfectly transparent as it emerges from the 

deep canyon into the valley. The power plant is above the head works 

of the canah, and all of the water reenters the river before any is 

diverted for irrigation purposes. All of the water in the river is 

diverted at the mouth of the ('anyon into three canals, namely, the 

Lehi canal, the American Fork canal, and the Pleasant Grove canal. 

A crib weir is placed across and at right angles to the river bed, being 

held in place by rock filling. The upper side of the weir is made 

impervious by planking and earth filling. Near the top of the weir 

are four rectangular openings, which allow the water to flmv into the 

respective canals, two of the openings being for the American Fork 

canal. The admission of water is regulated by means of flash boards. 

The waters of the American l!"ork are divided as follows: Lehi canal, 

one-third from July 1 to September ~0, one-sixth from September 20 

to July 1; American Fork canal, eight twenty-firsts during the irrigation period; Pleasant Grove canal, two-sevenths from April 15 to 

September 20, and from September 20 to April 15 only sufficient for 

culinary purposes. 

Lehi canal.-This canal is on the north side of the canyon, and has a westerly 

course to Lehi, a distance of 0 miles. A shortage of water occurs each year, due 

to an insufficient amount in the river. 

American Fork canal.-This canal receives its \Yater through the middle portion 

of the river weir. The direction of the canal is southwest, following the old river 

bed the greater part of the distance to the city of American Fork. The water is 

under the control of that city. The rights were acquired by appropriation. They 

belong to the land for which the water was appropriated and can not be transferred. There has always been a shortage of water, not more than half the necessary quantity being available. but there has been no litigation on that account, 

probably because the distribution is uncler municipal control. 

Pleasant Grove cwwl.-This canal receives its water from the south opening in 

the American Fork weir. The direction of the canal is southeasterly to Pleasant 

Grove. It irrigates the city lots of Pleasant Grove and the fields in that vicinity.

HOBBLE CREEK. 

Hobble Creek enters Utah Valley at about the center of its east.ern 

side, and irrigates the land in Springville and the immecliate vicinity. 

IRR 52-01--2 
506 OPERATIONS AT RIVER STATIONS, 1900.-PART VI. (NO. 52. 

All of the canals diverting water from 1,he creek are under the control of the city of Springville. A water privilege consists of the right 

to use a certain amount of water, apportioned by the water master, 

for t,hree honrs per acre each three weeks. These rights were 

acquired by appropriation, and can not be transferred from one party 

to another except by a transfer of the land. The chief water master 

js appointed by the city council for the term of one year. He in turn 

appoints sub water masters, who divide the water among the irrigators of their respective districts. 

There is an annual tax of 6 cents per acre watered, to meet the 

expenses of the system. Usually there are six applications of the 

water to the land each year, some crops requiring more and some less 

than that number. 

Nearly every year prior to 1899 there has been a shortage in the 

canals diverting water from Hobble Creek; but there has never been 

any litigation in consequence of the shortage. "Then the water 

becomes lmv in the latter part of the season the irrigators having the 

titles of most recent dates are deprived of the use of the "\Vater, all of 

which is reserved for those having prior rights. 

Mapleton Reservoir canal.-This is the uppermost canal diverting water from 

Hobble Creek. It heads a short distance above the mouth of the canyon. It \vas 

constructed in 1878, by the appropriators. In the spring of 1899 it was bought by 

the city of Springville for $7:30, under an agreement which gave the former owners 

an equal right with the remainder of the Springville irrigators. 

Mapleton Union canal.-This is the second canal diverting water from Hobble 

Creek. It takes its water from the south side of the stream. It was built in 1853 

and went under the control of the city in 1877. 

North Bench canal.-This is the third canal diverting water from the creek, 

and the uppermost on the north side. lt was built in 1852. The seepage into it 

from the hillside was found to be 0.04 second-foot in a distance of three-fourths of 

a mile. 

Island canal.-This is the fourth canal diverting water from the creek. It is 

taken out on the north side. and was constructed in 1851. 

Sage Creek canal.-This is the fifth canal diverting water from the creek. It 

is on the south side of the stream. It was constructed in 1860, by the labor of the 

appropriators. 

South Big Field ditl'h.-This canal diverts water from the north side of the 

creek. It was constructed in 1861.

PETEETNETR CREEK. 

Perhaps the best and most complete irrigation system in Utah Valley is that of Peteetnetr Creek. This stream has its source near the 

top of the high mountains north of Mount Nebo, about 10 miles southeast of Payson. At the head of the creek and its branches are five 

reservoirs. The largest covers 30 acres and has a mean depth of 10 

feet; the next largest covers 25 acres and has a mean depth of 10 feet; 

the others cover from 7 to 10 acres each, ·with mean depths of from 5 

to 7 feet. The dams are all of earth. The construction of the largest 

reservoir is under the charge of ::\lr. R. C. Gemmel, State engineer of 

Utah. The reservoirs were begun in 1887, but no benefits were 

derived from them until1891. They are fed principally by the flood 

waters that occur during the spring, the springs flowing to them being 

small. The reservoirs and the creek are under the control of the city 

of Payson. There is an annual tax, for the maintenance of the system and the payment of the water master, of 25 cents per acre for 

farms and 65 cents per acre for city lots. The water of the creek and 

the reservoirs is divided into seventeen streams, through seventeen 

Cippoletti weirs, and the \Vater of the streams is distributed on a time 

basis. The area irrigateu is 1,400 acres. The flow of the creek is 

measured above all diversions over a rectangular weir with 12 feet 

length of crest .

NoTE.-The number of acre-feet and the depth are greater than those actually used, the measurements being made a great distance from the land to which the water was applied, and 

-there being considerable loss by seepage and evaporation.

The water of the creek was appropriated in 1851. The water master, 

appointed by the city council, attends to the general division of the 

water at the weirs. \Vhen necessary he appoints sub water masters 

to attend to the subdivision. At the beginning of each irrigation 

season the water master issues to each irrigator a schedule stating 

the time at which he is to take the water for each turn during the 

entire season. There has not been a shortage of water on this stream 

since 1888, arid there has been no litigation on account of shortage. 

The principal crops raised are wheat, oats, potatoes, fruit, and sugar 

beets. Of the last, 160 acres were raised in 1898, the average yield 

being 18 tons per acre. This would make a total of 2,880 tons, the 

value of which, at $3.75 per ton, would be $10,800, or $67.50 per acre. 

CURRENT CREEK. 

This creek heads near the \Vestern base of Mount Nebo. Its general course is north. It is about 12 miles long, and empties into Utah 

Lake at the extreme southern end. 

Its waters are impounded by a dam placed across the channel about 

1 mile west of Goshen. This reservoir is used as a distribution basin, 

from which seven canals receive their supply of water. The creek 

irrigates about 2,500 acres. The irrigation period extends from April 

1 to October 1. 

On the west side of Mount Nebo, in the south end of Utah County, 

in what is known as ]}'Iona Valley, is the :Mount Nebo Land and Irrigation Company's reservoir, which when full covers about 2,000 acres 

to a mean depth of 12 feet, and is supplied by the winter flow of Current Creek. The dam is built of selected and graded earth. The top 

length is 215 feet, the bottom length 125 feet. The bottom width is 

101 feet, the top width 10 feet, the height, 25 feet. About 25 feet 

down the lower slqpe there is a 3-foot berm. The entire dam is covered with riprap. The outlet tunnel is cut through the solid rock, 

about 37 feet below the surface. 'rhe valves are of the kind known 

as the butterfly valve-fastened to vertical shafts and operated from 

the valve house by a worm gear. The spillway is cut through the 

solid rock around the northern end of the dam. It is 25 feet wide, 5 

feet deep, 200 feet long, and its crest is 5 feet below the top of the 

dam. The water is drawn off and emptied into the old creek bed 

below the dam, and is carried down the canyon about 2 miles to the 

division gates, where the reservoir water is diverted into the canal of 

the Mount Nebo Irrigation Company, and the natural flow of the 

stream is allowed to pass dmvn the old channel. The water of the 

Mount Nebo Irrigation Company is conducted by a semicircular stave 

flume the greater part of the distance down the canyon. One crossing of the canyon is made on a trestle and another by means of an 

inverted siphon. At each end of the siphon the flume is gradually

contracted into the pipe. In 1899 the water from this reservoir irrigated about 3,100 acres, but there was only about five-sixths of the 

quantity necessary to mature the crops. There are about 10,000 acres 

of land tributary to the canal. 

SUMMIT CREEK. 

Summit Creek rises in the tops of the mountains on the south-central 

side of Utah Yalley. Its course is northwest, and its length about 8 

miles. rrhe first and only measurement of the stream made by the 

writer was on August 23, 1899. The discharge at that time was 14.64 

second-feet. The stream is owned and controlled by the Santaquin 

Irrigation and Canal Company, which was incorporated in 1875. The 

irrigation season is from Aprill to October 25. 

GOSHEN WARM SPRINGS CREEK. 

This creek rises in the level of Goshen Valley-adjacent to Utah 

Valley at the extreme southern end-near the base of theN ebo Range, 

and irrigates land on the east side of Goshen Valley. On August 23, 

1899, the aggregate discharge of the streams, three in number, was 

estimated to be 5.5 second-feet, which was an average of the flow for the 

season. The number of acres irrigated is 825. The irrigation season 

extends from April 1 to October 1, or 183 days. The total discharge 

during that time would be 2,006 acre-feet, which would cover the 835 

acres to a depth of 2.42 feet. The crops raised are meadow hay, 

alfalfa, and grain. 

ROCK CANYON CREEK. 

This stream flows from a deep canyon northeast of the city of Provo, 

and irrigates land lying between the foot of the mountains and the 

rrimpanogas canal. The irrigation season extends from April 1 to 

September 1. The mean discharge during the irrigation season is 

nearly 4 second-feet, or a total of 1,214 acre-feet. The area irrigated 

is 400 acres, w-hich would be covered to a depth of 3. 04 feet. The soil 

consists of a gravel and sand wash. The crops raised are grain and 

alfalfa. 

SPRING LAKE CREEK. 

This creek has its source in a small lake or pond which covers 20 

acres to a mean depth of 4 feet. It is used as a storage reservoir and 

also as a means of raising the water sufficiently to irrigate the higher 

land. A measurement of the stream was made on August 23, 1899, 

the discharge being 2.89 second-feet. The number of acres irrigated 

is 150.

RATING TABLES. 

The following pages contain the rating tables for the various river 

stations described in vVater-Supply Papers Nos. 47 to 51, inclusive. 

In each case the table shows the relation which has been found to 

exist during the year 1900 between the height of water on the gage 

and the discharge in cubic feet per second. The tables have been 

prepared from measurements made during 1900 or previous years, 

and are used in computing the daily flow, the results of which will 

be published in the Twenty-second Annual Report, Part IV. 

Referring to the tables, the numbers in parentheses in the box heads 

are the pages in t,he vVater-SupplyPapers of the series for 1900 (Nos. 

47 to 51, inclusive) on which the various gaging stations are described. 

At the end of the descriptions are given the results of discharge measurements made during 1900 and the daily gage heights. From these 

and earlier data the relation of gage height to discharge has been 

deduced. Take, for example, the first table-Delaware River at Lambertville, New Jersey. On page 80 of Water-Supply Paper No. 47 

is given the daily gage height, in feet, at that station during the year 

1900. On March 1 the gage height was 5.40 feet. The flow~ equivalent to that gage height is shown in the following table to be 20,300 

second-feet. vVith the gage heights and the rating tables at hand, 

the daily and monthly flow of any stream can easily be determined. 

The latter (the monthly discharge) has been worked up for most of the 

stations maint~ained by the Survey, and will, as already stated, be 

published in the Twenty-second Annual Report, Part IV.
