The Middle Valley Irrigation ditch
takes water from the east side of the
Weiser river, carrying it southwark
about miles. Its average width is
8 feet; its capacity, approximately,
20 second feet; and its cost $6, 900.
There is plenty of water In the river
at this point, and no complaint of
loss of crops. On Mann creek, in
the southern end of the county, is
ditch taking water from the east side
and carrying it a distance Of 8 miles.
The average width is 3 feet, and the
cost about $4,000. As an example
of prior rights may be cited a.case on
this creek, different, however, in no
way from the the conditions obtaining
in other parts of the country; Here
8 ranches have prior rights, while
other ranches, to the number of
nearly 80, have secondary claims to
the water. In time or drought these
8 ranches have the entire stream,
while the others, equally good in
every respect, must suffer.
Measurements of the discharge of
the Weiser river have been made by
the United States Geological Survey
at the mouth of the canyon, 9 miles
above Weiser, and computations of
daily discharge have been made
covering period of nearly 2 years.
The mean annual discharge has been
found to be, approximately, 1,212
second-feet, varying from 11,22o
second-feet in time OF food to 80
second-feet in low water. The
drainage area is 1,670 square miles,
and the average quantity of water
which has flowed from this during
the year, if put upon plain Of the
same area as the drainage basin,
would cover it to a depth of 9S
inches The river fuctuates greatly
in early spring with the variations Of
temperature. The principal part OF
the water is received from the higt
divide between the Weiser and Payette
rivers, while the floods of early
spring come from the lower-lyine
hills.

Washington County, Idaho, has
scores of small bitches, owned by
private parties, each aiding in tine
agricultural growth of the county.
The only ditch in the county which
sells water is that of the Weiser
Water Company, whose canal is
seventeen miles long, with capacity
of about seventy-ta0 cubic feet per
second. This can be Increased to
meet the growing demand, and re-
servoirs are also planned to maintain
the supply when the river is low

sioners of Washington county allowed
the Weiser SIGNAL the munificent
sum of eight dollars for publishing
the delinquent tax list, which was
we'll worth two hundred dollars.
OF course they never would have
tried such a game as that on anybody
but the newspaper man. The

Mr.. EDIToR:-I little expected
that my humble remarks would create
such sensation and cause three of
my young gentleman friends to rush
into the columns of the paper. am
glad though, through the letters of
Carl and George, to learn that there
are at least two of the boys who are
capable of giving expression to higher
and nobler thoughts and sentiments
than supposed any Of them possessed.
Both George and Carl gave expression
to some golden words and ideas;
words which hope my sisters of
Weiser will ponder we'll. / admit it
is the truth that the girls should aim
to higher attainments than they do,
and by their nobleness of character
and intellect WELD an irresistible
influence over the boys. But be-
cause some of them fail to do SO is no
reason why the boys should not aim
to do as 1 suggested. Now is il
calculated to fill girl of good sense
with admiration of the boys to behold
the generality of them becoming
addicted to feminine habits and
proclivities? How we must admire
them when Jack INDUCES in petty
quarrel with Sarah, and Jim pettishly
accuses Mary and Sue of "talking
about me, and ''you said so and so'
and ''you know faint So" How
delightful to see a nice black suit,
hashy tie and pompadour hair get up
to dance with a girl and spend the
time between changes in silly fol
de-rol squable over some equally
silly love affair; exchanging senseless
and spiteful little remarks that woul6
