This company commenced the con,
struction of a canal on the west
side of Snake river in 1892, and
pushed 1t to completion in a few
years. 1t taps Snake river about ten
miles above Blackfoot, and the water
is used in the vicinity and Moreland
and Rich. The main canal is fifty
feet wide and is about twenty-five
miles long. The capacity of the ca
nal is about 10000 inches of water
and the cost of maintenance is very
low.
The company originally incorpor-
ated for $150,O00, but at the last
meeting this was reduced to SIS 900.

American Falls Canal.

This is the, largest canal in this
part of the state, and taps Snake
river twelve miles above Blackfoot
on the west side Its terminal is
near American Falls, about sixty
miles below the headgate. 1t has
been about sixteen years in construc-
ton, and will probably be completed
this year, the unfinished portion be-
ing near the lower end where work
Is being pushed as rapidly as posi-
BILE.
Two years ago, application was
made to the Reclamation Depart
ment for right to participate in the
construction and use of a reservoir
at jackson Lake to reinforce the sup
ply In Snake river at such times as
the natural flow of the river might
be exhausted, and contracts with this
department have recently been sign
ed between the departmnt and the
company to give them the desired
privilege.
Plans are just now being drawn
for drop, waste gate and wasteway
to be put in the canal near Spring
field, just above what is known as
the Big Fill. where the main canal
crosses valley requiring the con-
struction of levees 35 feet high, built
on base 800 feet wide. 1t required
large force of men and teams for a
year to make the fill AS soon as
the plans for the drop and wasteway
are completed, crew will be put
to work to construct them.
The big canal system has been
built mostly with eastern capital,
and has brought an immense amount
of business into this country. 1t will
also develop great amount of prop
erty in the western and southern part
of Bingham county.
