to a SecOnd foot OF water permits OF
an e-xtravagant use of water"
Under our bitches here at Roswell,
we use not more than one s\cond-foot
to so acres.
Under the Northern Canal last
year, Mr.. Bowen old me, they used
an average of one second-foot to lao
acres.
AS only $4,000 acres of the $50, 900
acres in the artesiaa belt are in cul-
tivation, if there is a limit to the ar
|tesian well water we should learn as
soon as possible how to make the
very best use of it.
The new people coming mere and
putting down wells desire to irrigate
as large an acreage as they can from
their wells. We should assist them
in all the ways within our power.
We have nearly all of us used too
much water. We now need to improve
our methods of using it. This is one
way of protecting our water.
If the supply is limited, n VIA
one man runs from his well another
loses his chance of using, it is anoth-
er reason why we need study this
question and use the utmost care
with our wells.
If one we'll running $50 gallons per
minute would in "a hours cover one
about two feet deep, one well of 900
gallons-perhaps al average outside
of town-would irrigate two acres
two feet deep, or four acres n foot
deep, or eight acres six inches deep.
1t is time we were learning and prof
iting by the knowledge.
If we need more laws helping us
to protect our water, surface and sub
terranean, we need to have facts, and
our Association is also at work on
this line of Investigation.
The season of 1907 was drier than
usual, more wells were drilled, more
acres we're watered, and the pressure
of the wells was less than ever before.
We have the satisfaction now of
knowing that the pressures-wnere
the conditions of the wells were
good-came back this winter, came
back to as much as they ever have
been.
Since the December inspection by
w. A. Wilson, the artesian well SUI
pervisor, L have been taking pressure
readings of the wells all over the dis
trict of the Association, watching the
rise and abb of the pressures.
The wells on the edge of the ar
tesian belt are the first to show a de
in pressure and flow, and are
affected the most by the wells near
them.
have been watching the press
ures with regard to the water level
of the head of South Spring River
and studying the a~dvisability of dam

visibility of doing this.

ARTHUR J. STEVENS,
Secretary.
The Roswell daily record. [volume] (Roswell, N.M.) 1903-current, 1908-03-04

To the Honorable Board of Directors
and members of the Water Users
Protective Association of Roswell,
New Mexico:
AS your secretary since the last
of October, 1907, 1 beg leave to make
the following report.
Upon the Directors taking up and
making plans for the work of the AS
ISOLATION, they found the greatest
need of our work lay in a close study
of the artesian water, and in impress
ing on the farmers the need of keep
ing the wells closed when not in use.
Many people, through carelessness.
have been negligent, not considering
this matter seriously, without intend
ing to break the law.
Some people need close watching.
So in the beginning work, 1 was
told to keep close watch of the wells
assisting Mr.. w. A. Wilson, the Ar.
tesian Well Supervisor, in seeing
that the artesian well law was en-
forced, who in return gave me a dep
utyship.
1 vas also directed to prepare
books so I could preserve the data
gathered in regard to each well, and
in which to record each inspection.
Each we'll in the district outside Of
phabetical index, which gives the
page and location of the well des-
cribed on the page. On turning to the
page, we have the owners name, be-
low, the page and number of the ar
tesian well record in which the arte-
sian well supervisor has his records.
Following are the facts taken from
the records:
Location by quarter section 49,.
Time well was finished. ..-...
Casing used, ..........

Pressure, .......-... usually the
extremes and the last taken.
I entered the number of acres of the

1907 season. Then come the reports
of the different inspections each Civ
ing the date, the number of the in
spection, and the condition of the
we'll at the time.
Wherever possible, in planning the
nSo of tho Wafor have done
In the crop reports, l find no wells
have irrigated more than 200 acres,
and few more than 40 acres.
With the assistance of Mr.. w. NJ.
Reed, I have drafted a time card, es- |
pecial,y for use with the well water, |
but which could be used in connection
with the ditch water.
These would be of great assistance

Much loss is due TO running water
