IRRIGATION QUESTIONS
IN STATE OF COLORADO
MI. A. L. Fellows Urges the Construc-
tion of Reservoirs for Purposes of
Catching Spring Flood Water.

Mr.. \. l. Fellows. resident hydro
graphcr Of the United States Geological
Survey for the State of Colorado, in Il
recent report to the Survey. threw inter
esting light upon several weightg irrlga-
tion problems existing in that section.
Mr.. Fellows calls attention to the
urgent necessity of building reservoirs
for the conservation OF the winter and
spring flood waters which row run TO
waste He says that the necessity for
storing water was never made more ap-
parent than it is this year. Water for
irrigating purposes is very scarce in
Colorado this year. notwithstanding the
fact that the floods of last winter were
of considerable magnitude. Could -he
water which fell then have been stored
and used no shortage would have oc-
CURED this summer.
