amounts. 8. Those which have
not been judicially settled or even
defined. Now it will be generally
conceded, / believe, that the first
group contains fewer claims than
the second. and that the third con-
tains more than the first and second
combined. A decree which empow.
ers water user to divert more
water than he can economically use
could not prove otherwise than
wasteful Of water. So long, also,
as claims remain unsettled, SO long
will claimants make pretense Of
using more than they really need in
order to substantiate their claims
for an ample supply.
There are several other means of
obtaining a high duty of water
whose Importance is SO generally
recognized that | shall do no more
than TO name them. Some of these
are the skillful application of water,
thorough preparation of the soil,
well made bitches and an efficien,
system of distributing and deliver
ing of the amount of water to which
each user is entitled.
In conclusion, ] can but refer
briefly to some of the practical
methods that may be employed to
cheek the excessive evaporation
losses from soil surfaces. The re-
suits of our experiments thus far
seem to show that about one half of
the water which is spread over
fields in irrigation passes off into
the air without benefitting the
plants.
The greater part of this loss oc-
ours during the time when water
isapplied and for day or SO after
wards. On orchard soils in warm
weather the evaporation from the
soil may reach 10 tons per acre In
"a hours. Now it has been shown
that the cultivation of the surface to
a depth of Six inches prevents more
than one half of the subsequent
loss.
The use of well pulverized soil
mulches is another means of check
ing evaporation. The tests con-
Quoted in southern California show
that l0-incb layer of dry granular
soil gives complete protection, that
an inch layer will save five sixths
of the moisture beneath, and A.
inch layer two-thirds of the moisture
Wherever 1t is practical and for
deep rooted plants, deep irrigation
should be practiced, since it retards
evaporation.

not produce crops. The irrigator
is thus Obliged to spread water over

not produce crops. The irrigator
is thus obliged to spread water over
more CT less porous mass which
may permit a large part to pass
through 1t. If he attempts to keep
the water for any length of time
near the surface il will speedily pass
off as vapor into the atmosphere.
His task, therefore, approaches in
difficulties that of keeping water in
a vessel with both ends open. On
the one side.is a layer of warm, dr.,
air, ever ready to suck up moisture;
on the other is a porous subsoiI
through which water is drawn by
force of gravity. To guard against
these and numerous other losses of
irrigation water, the western farmer
must possess more accurate know
ledge of the frequency and extent of
the chief sources of waste. 1t il

He should endeavor to find out how
much of this volume passes through
the subsoil and collects, it may be,

where the alkali salts are rising to
the surface, and how much passes

val between irrigations.

usual practice of contracting for 8

selling water and one which puts q

Water.

water.
At the recent Irrigation Congress
In Boise, Samuel Fortier, recog-
nized authority on irrigation, en-
gineer in charge of the Pacific dis
trict for the government, read an
interesting and valuable paper on
the dangers of too much water be-
ing applied to land, its great and
unnecessary waste, from which we
publish the following extracts:
Assuming that the area irrigated
is 10000, 900 acres and that the
average cost of applying water each
irrigation season is 80. so per acre,
the yearly expenditure for this pur-
pose on all the land irrigated would
aggregate an additional S25 900, 900.
Thus it appears that the farmers
of the irrigated districts of America
are expanding annually about $780,
OOo, 600 for water and for the labor
and equipment necessary in supply
ing it TO cultivated crops. The sole
purpose of spending SO vast sum
each year is to produce food stuffs
for the subsistence of mar and the
domestic ANIMALS under his care.
1t is, however, no exaggeration to
state that in the accomplishment of
thus purpose fully 20 per cent of the
money and labor spent in securing
and applying water is wasted.
We believe this fact has been full
" demonstrated that for every 100
miners inches diverted from nat
ural streams and storage reservoirs
less than 80 miners inches are util-
lzed by cultivated plants in bene-
fetal way. This means that out of
an expenditure of $4,000, 600 a
year less than SIS, 600, 900 is put to
a beneficial use. How to save a part
of the s35, 900, 900 worth of water
which is now wasted is one of the
problems connected with this sub
ject of irrigation. If you were to
ask me if it were possible to save all
of the water which is now wasted
and all of the money now used In
furnishing and applying it, would
answer-No. 1t is, however. pos
slbie and entirely within the pro-
vince of feasibility and profitable
investment to save large part of
this waste.
The thirst of the plant must be
satisfied in order TO maintain a Wig
orous growth, but this does not
mean complete saturation of the
soil around its roots. Plants re-
quire air as well as water, and if
other conditions are favorable a
comparatively. small percentage of
moisture IN the soil will suffice.
Ten pounds of free water in each
100 pounds of soil Is ample for most
crops. By ''free water Is meant
the soil moisture which the fibrous
roots absorb and which hot sun is
capable of eyaporating from the soil.
The application of four inches of
water over the surface of a field on
which plants are growing fairly well
furnishes sufficient moisture for four
feet of soil, providing it is evenly
distributed without loss. Most Of
the trouble of the irrigator arises
from his not being able to either ap-
ply or distribute this water evenly
and without loss. Good soils and
subsoils are never water tight. If
they were imperyious tosthe down
ward passage of water they would
