WORK Of STREAM
MEASUREMENT
Cable is Stretched
Across Chasm on
Gila
PLENTY OF WATER IN RIVERS
Tide of Settlement Sweep
ing ] ITO Southwestern
New Mexico.

J. b. Stewart, photographer of the
Z. S. Geological Survey, detailed to
cooperate with Territorial Engineer
Vernon L. Sullivan in the measure
ment of flowing streams. has returned
from an extensive tour of the princi-
pal water systems of the Territory,
except those in the northwest and
southeast He measured the flow of
the Gallinas, Sapello, Mora. Cimar-
ron, Rayado, Canadian, Ute Creek.
the Pecos at Fort Sumner, Mimbres.
Stephens Creek Cameron Creek, Gila
and San Francisco. He installed
gauging stations on the Canadian
and on Ute Creek in northeastern
New Mexico, and also at Red Rock on
the Gila, where he stretched three
quarter inch cable across chasm
and suspended from it cage sixty
feet above the water level to meas
ure floods that may come down that
treacherOus river. There is GER
tain element of peril in gauging the
water from such a cage thus suspend
come down higher than sixty feet.
the occupant OF the cage would be
swept by 1t to certain destruction.
But stream measurement has its per-
lis the same as other perilous occu-
pations. All the streams visited are
flowing good volumes of water, espe
cially the Gila and the San Francisco
in southwestern New Mexico.
The Tide of Settlement.
Mr.. Stewart found that the flood Of
homeseekers is sweeping into south
western New Mexico In the Las An
imas valley, near Lordsburg, Grant
county, he found that every quarter
section had been filed upon Water
is found at a depth OF from II to 81
feet and six pumps have been al
ready installed for irrigation purpos-
ses. The water is of good quality
and seemingly inexhaustible. The en-
tire valley is to be brought under cul.
tivation, principally with alfalfa and
vineyards, the grape doing especially
we'll. The cattlemen who occupied
this section before are becoming so
crowded that they have asked the
settlers not to fence their filings un-
til the cattle owners are able to
withdraw their stock without loss
from that section and the request
will undoubtedly be complied with.
However, the range is exceedingly
dry and stockmen are experiencing
severe losses. The valley is twenty
miles long and nine miles wide.
New Gold Camp.
Discoveries of gold ore, between
the Guadalupe and Animas mountains
in the extreme southwestern corner
of Grant county, south of Hachita,
are drawing many prospectors. The
discovery of water at shallow depth
by the miners has drawn homeseek-
ers and fully hundred homestead
filings have been made in this beau
tiful valley. :,
There will be bumper fruit crop
IN southwestern New Mexico, and
plums and peaches have already at.
tanned considerable size, so Mr.
Stewart reports.
