A MANAkA MISTAKE.
MesilIa Valley Farmers Are In Need Of
Having Water Turned On.

Agriculturisls are complaining bit
terly about the condition of the ditch
which supplies the Mesilla valley for
irrigation purposes. II has been prac.
tically dry since the food of the Rio
Grande, and crops are suffering. The
ditch was banked up with sand and
rock during the high water TO keep IL
from being washed away. Since the
fall OF the river an immense deposit of
gravel and sana has been at the en-.
trance. which effectually blocks the
water from coming into the canal
Inc farmers claim that the authori.
ties are remiss about taking steps TO
remedy the situation, being loathe to
spend the money to remove the debris.
Inc valley mas been entirely cut of
from water. and the 0Itch today is dry
as q bone.
The effect Is very noticeable on the
crops. The fruit Is small and lacks
flavor. the alfalfa is slow of growth
and the corn is very poor. II is stated
that unless some action Is taken soon.
the loss entailed by the farmers will
be heavier than they can bear.
There Is an abundance of water in
the Rio Grande. II was stated today
tnat force of Mexicans had been plac-
ed at work removing the debris but II
Is feared tha the action has been too
long delayed.
AT the ranches where pumping is
practiced, fruit is in fine condition.
and three cuttings of alfalfa are re-
ported to have been secured. Those
scientific farmers will reap an excel.
lent harvest for their industry
