HOW TO MEASURE WATER.
Valuable Information for Every r.
rigator, and Easily Under
stood.

ing study of irrigation here for the
benefit of settlers on the government
tracts, has spoken before number of
the farmers associations recently on
the method of measuring water, says
the Twin Falls Times, to ascertain
whether each irri gator is receiving his
proper allowance. Following is a con-
densed report of his address:
There are three different units used
in the me asuremect of water the unit
used depending upon the amount of
water to be measured. The miners inch
is used to measure the smaller quaint
ties. According to the laws of the state
of Idaho, a miners inch consists of the
amount of water flowing through an
orifice an inch square under constant
head of four and one half inches over
the center of the opening.
If an irrlgator wishes to measure the
actual number of inches of water flow
ing through he can do SO very easily by
constructing board dam across the
ditch and cutting a slot an inch high
extending nearly across the dam If
i,well fitting slide be Iput into the slot
and drawn out until enough of the slot
is left free TO allow all of the water in
the ditch to flow through with the
water level standing four and one half
inches above the center line of the slot
then the length of the slot in inches is
| the number of inches flowing through
! the ditch,
The cubic foot per second or second
foot is used for measuring both large
and small quantities Of water and is
being generally used in place Of the
: miners inch. A second foot is simply
the flow of water which will fill box
foot square and one foot deep in Sc
cond of time. 1t is generally measured
| by means of weir SEE in the ditch with
some sort of recording device for regis
tering the height of water flowing over
/ the weir. each different height CORES
ponding TO flow of certain number
of second feet; this flow is computed
with tables which are wor ked out for
weirs of different sizes.
The acre foot is used for measuring
extremely large amounts Of water
1t is the amount of water required to
cover an acreage one foot deep and is
equal to 43, $50 cubic feet This unit is
mainly for determining the capacity of
reservoirs and determining the amount
of water applied to land during the ir-
rigaJion season.
By duty of water Is meant the num-
! Der of acres irrigated by second foot
| of water Thus if an irrlgator is al
| lowed a second foot and irrigates 80
acres with that amount the duty of
water on his field is 30. The higher the
duty of water the more skillful and in
| telligent the irrigating. The average
duty in the arid states is close to so at
! the present time.
There are several ways for a farmer
| to measure the amount of water flowing
down his ditch. About the easiest way
| is To dig n hole about 10 feet square and
foot deep and notice the time it takes
to fill. Divide this time. in seconds, in :.
| to 100 and the result is the number of
second feet of flow. Multiply this
