Bruneau Valley the Garden Spot.

T. d. Callahan returned this
morning from trip to Bruneau,
where he had been looking after his
interests. He says the Bruneau
valley is the garden spot of Idaho.
He found farmers in the midst of
their first hay harvest, cutting hav-
ing been delayed by the rains. The
alfalfa was ready to cut over two
weeks ago. Bruneau is two or
three weeks earlier than Boise,
which made their peach, apricot
and apple trees, loaded with fruit
almost fully grown, look odd to a
Boiseite. Mr.. Callahan said he
never saw such crops of alfalfa. He
saw one field where the seed sown
this spring had produced a heavy
stand that was almost waist high.
T. d. only had one objection to the
valley. The people make money
SO easily over there they become
hopelessly lazy. He said this state

sp1ash-board as high as needed, SO
that the water between checks,
when raised to it's full height, will
stand on a level. To divert the
water from the cross bitches into
the corrugations 1 favor the use of
1ath boxes. Each of these little
boxes will supply from one to three
corrugations, the number depending
upon the pressure from the cross
ditch and the length of the corruga-
ton. -
Glow do you make these 1ath
boxes and what do they cost ?'
''Four lathes will make two or
three boxes, according to the length
required. The four 1athes are
simply nailed together in the form
of square and cut in two or three
sections. The boxes are then
placed on a level line in the bank
of the cross ditch, so that they will
steadily, night and day. If they
are kept clear they will remain in
position for service indefinitely.
Laths cost SO. SO per thousand. One
thousand 1aths will make 500 box
es. Allowing one box to each cor
rugation, 500 boxes would extend
clear across a 40-acre field If
each box were to supply two CORFU
cations, only $50 boxes would be
required, and allowing one box for
three corrugations the number
would be correspondingly less A
4O-acre field should be cut into
three lengths for irrigation, in order
that the water may not have to be
carried too far, and that perfect
saturation may be obtained, conse-
quently 5000 1aths would be needed,
allowing one box to each Cor1-uga-
ton and a corresponding1y less
number if each box answered for
two or three corrugations. When
the check gates and 1ath boxes are
once set in place and the land is
properly graded, irrigation is no
longer a task, but merely a question
of opening and shutting check box
es, or gauging the height of the
water by the splash-boards-
under this system irrigation be-
comes automatic, providing, of
course, that the land is properly
laid out so that the water has un-
interrupted flow and perfect irri-

PRACTICAL TALK
ON IRRIGATION
Expert Tells of Systems
From Which best Re-
suits are Obtained.

When questioned regarding the
common methods of Irrigation on
the Twin Falls tract, Superintend-
ent Mcpherson said: -. "a
'There are only two methods by
which water may be applied to land
on this tract, by flooding and by
corrugation, and as far as the first
years. cultivation is concerned, cor
rugation is much the better. There
are some objections offered to the
corrugation method by those who
are used to the flooding system,
but after little experience on this
tract all will agree that if the cor
rugation system is properly estab-
1ished it will prove the most eco
nomica1 and effective. l would adj
wise the corrugation system at all
times on all temporary crops. OF
course, in a permanent meadow,
wheret here is no danger of washing,
flooding can be resorted to, but
even then the corrugations are a
great aid in the distribution of
water.
''How would you proceed to irri-
gate a new field by the corrugation
method? ?"
First, l would run the corruga-
tions or small burrows 80 inches
apart in the direction in which the
water is intended to flow. AS soon
as this is done, l would run my
cross bitches at right angles with
the head ditch or supply lateral, if
possible, from 800 to 500 feet
apart. Then l would put checks in
each cross ditch, the distance apart
to be governed by the fall of the
land. The sharper the pitch of
the land, the more checks are
necessary. However I would re-
mark here that all bitches should
be run with as little grade as pos
sible. The checks should be con-
structed so that water will flow
over and not under the splash
board. The checks should be put
in at regular intervals and the
water should be raised with the
