measurement from that of acreage to
quantity, making it possible for the
ditch companies and farmers to make
a definite and sensible contract, but
does not take from the courts their
former Jurisdiction over the matter Of
fixing the price of water. Several
ditch companies, realizing the great
benefit and saving Of water which will
arise from a compliance with the new
law, are placing measuring devices for
use this year. These devices are TO be
approved by the state engineer.
