From The AlHffiDSa OuriGr
We wish to again impress on
the farmers of the San Luis Valley
that plenty OF water for irrigation
is as necessary to your success
as drainage. In your zeal to get
secpage water you must not lose
sight of the fact that when the
tons of thousands of acres of
lille seepagc alkali land have
proper drainage provided that all
OF this land WILL BE FARMED
and the water that is now being
used on a few benches will have
to be divided up with all the
land. Owing to the small per cent.
of land now farmed compared to
the total amount that owns wat
er rights, you generally, except
In very dry seasons, have all you
want and often water to spare,
as is the case this year. But
this is an exceptionally wet year,
one of the kind in which water
should be stored for the next
season, and if we had reservoirs,
as we should have, think with
what confidence you could look
ahead to next year il you
knew that already you had the
wafer stored in an ample reservoir
for your next year s crop. Every
old settler of experience in the
valley knows that there have been
several years during the history
of farming here when there has
been very little water for irriga-
tion, when on account of the scar
city of snow in the mountains a
relatively small acreage was
planted to crops, and that which
was planted, only made a partial
crop. In view of this fact and
in view of the fact that nature
is inexorable, that we have had
droughts, that we will have them
again, that nature will repeat her
self, is it not the part OF WIS
dom to provide against her cap
rices as much as we can? Reser-
voirs are the one thing and only
thing that will provide you with
water when we have season Of
light snowfall in the mountains.
Think of the satisfaction, the Sc
curity and the stability that
would be given to farming if
during the flood season of year
like this, long before harvest,
you knew that you had sufficient
water stored in a good reservoir
up in the mountains to amply ir-
rigate your next year crop. 1t
alone would be an assurance, in
your mind and in that of any
