IRRIGATION IN CALIFORNIA.
SOMETHING OF ITS PRESENT EXTENT
AND FUTURE IMPORTANCE.
The Water supply-Topographi Feat
ures Of the state-statement
Of Areas-Etc.

data from the office of the State Engineer, VIM
Ham. HALL
The subject of irrigation, and its vast
Importance in connection with the devel-
opment of the resources of the State, has
frequently been presented in the columns
Of the RECORD UNION. The fact that no
rain falls during the summer months in
most parts of California, and the ground
becomes naturally very dry, thereby ar
resting the growth of vegetation, renders it
necessary to supply water to the soil arti-
fcially. While the population was sparse,
and land had but little value, there was no
demand for an intense cultivation of the
soil, and moderate yield of single crop
Of cereals, which grew to maturity in the
course OF few months, was an ample re-
turn for the money and labor invested.
The rainfall was sufficiently abundant in
most parts OF the State to insure liberal
profit But thirty years have brought
change; the population has increased, and
land is valued according to the profit it
will yield to its owner. The demand for
the field products continually increases. and
in one section after another the
TRANSITION TO INTENSE CULTIVATION
Takes place. Old Cslifornians required
seven acres of good grazing land for the
support of one head Of stock. Where al
falfa has been planted and does not lack
moisture, 1900 head of cattle can now be
fed with the yield of a single section (640
acres) OF land aud the demand for dairy
products and beef cattle still increases. 1t
ia not surprising, then, to find that in some
parts of the State, water is husbanded
with great deal of care. 1t makes the
cultivation of other products besides ce,
reals possible, and before many years irri-
CATION will be quite generally practiced
from the northern to the southern limit of
the State. In some of the dry sections of
the State, as in Los Angeles, San Ber-
nardino and San Diego counties, the water
supply is limited. The essential element
can be supplied to only portion of their
areas. For a part of the section just re-
ferred to, the

Many other wells have been sunk in Tu.
lare county since the above examination
was made. The number of wells has been
more than doubled. Two were completed
in the fell OF 1883 on the shore of Lake
Tulare, They are in Sections i and l3 of
township 2l south, range 2l east and are
about 500 feet deep. The first flows about
81 gallons per minute, the other about 124
gallons per minute. All the wells of Tu.
lare county above enumerated bring their
water from
BENEATH STRATA OF BLUE CLAY.
The clay strata under which the water is
found generally have a thickness of from
80 to 100 feet. They have dip greater
than that of the surface Of the valley
levidenced by the increasing depth to arte-
sian water from east to vest. The source
of the srtesian water is Rear the base of
the Sierra Nevada foothills. Water sink.
ing there finds its way under the clay and
rises to the surface (if that surface be low
enough, when the clay is perforated.
There is, therefore, an eastern limit to the
artesian belt of San Joaquin valley, beyond
which water found even under the blue
clay will not rise to the surface.

1883. The flow of each had decreased.
Uhlhorn and Naples east well had flow
of 299, 900 gallons per "a hours in 1882, but

WELLS OF TULARE COUNTY.

The artesian water supply has been de.
veloped more energetically in Tulare county
than elsewhere in San Joaquin Valley.
Though flowing wells have been known to
exist near Lemoore, and also at Upton, no
further attempts to find artesian water
were made till quite recently. Late in
1881 the Enterprise well, few miles
west Of Tulare, proved to be a complete
success. A copious flow of water from
dept of about 800 feet was the result of
the boring, That such success was a
great encouragement for others to attempt
TO find water that would rise to the sur
face, is evidenced by the following table,
which is an exhibit of the flowing wells
near Tulare, with a reliable estimate of
their flow, for July, 1882.

raising more fruit than formerly. Where
it in times past was looked upon as
luxury, it is now regarded as an article
of regular diet, possessing nutriment the
same as meat, and il fact is largely tax
ing the place of meat. The high price of
the latter is increasing the consumption
of fruit. Fifty and sixty years ago the
question of over. production was raised in
Europe and the Western States, but in
stead of such results, fruit is bringing bet
ter prices, and finds more ready market
