WATER SUPPLY
Application Of Mountain
Home Co. operative 1rriga-
ton Company to Increase
Acreage Before Board.

The Mountain Home Cooperative
Irrigation company has filed an appli-
cation with the state land board to
serve water rights to serve 5000 acres
in addition to the 1000 acres already
sold by the company, and the board
will give it's attention to the matter
tomorrow. State Engineer Robinson
has filed a report with the governor
and the land board relative to the pro-
posal. The report is as follows:
Conclusions Of Engineer:
ITO the Honorable, the state Board Of
Land Commissioners.
"Boise, Idaho.
"Gentlemen: Relative to the request
which has recently been presented to
me for report relative to the FEAST
bility of selling water rights to serve
5000 acres in addition to the 1000 acres
already sold by the above company, l
beg to render the following report:
"Conclusion: The capacity Of the
works. as constructed, as shown by
the field notes and canal elements
submitted to me, indicates that the
main supply system has sufhcient ca
pacity to deliver two acre-feet to the
aero to 1000 acres of land, and the
water supply, I believe, to be ade-
uuate. The contract specifies the de-
livery of two acre-feet to the acre,
and the duty of water investigations
in this state indicate that, on first
class soil, two acre-feet to the acre
will suffice. | do not consider less
than this amount to be sufficient on
any of the soils of this vicinity, but
tr{11 "a
found to be sufficient to raise maximum
crops on this land. ] would recon-
mend that this company be granted the
right to sell water rights to 5000 acres
additional.
Water Supply.
1.-THE water supply for this project
is obtained from Little Camas and
CANYON creeks. The flood water OF
Little Camas creek is stored in the
Little Camas reservoir and in an
other reservoir on Long Tom creek
The total capacity of these reservoirs
is approximately 10000 acre-feet The
only data which l have available rela-
tive to the run off of these streams is
some data taken by this office from
March 10 to Aug. Is, 1896 which gives
a total run-off in Little Camas creel
of approximately $4,000 acre-feet
have no records on Canyon creek, bu
am confident that the water suppl.
of these two streams will be suffi
cient to irrigate the 1000 acres Of land
Construction Features.
During the past six months. thi
company has increased the height o
the Little Camas creek dam from 30 t.
46 feet; they have. also, done consid
cradle work in cleaning out and i'm
proving the earth sections of their ca
nails, and improving their fumes.
note in checking over the field note
that the capacities of some of tn
fumes limit the capacity of the entir
system, which causes quite reduc
ton from the capacity which the sys
tenn would have, if the fumes were @
a size consistent with the rest of tn
system. / would recommend, wher
this condition exists, the company ulti
mately take steps to install stet
fumes, in order to make the capacit
of their distributing system consis
tent throughout. a
Respectfully submitted.

estate Engineer"

SOME GAINS MADE

New York, Nov 30.--In its issue Of
Monday Financial America will say:
Although the stock market was con-
fronted all through the week by many
adverse influences prices wer, well

been shown for so many years of being
immune to bear influence and no mat

no increases in the floating supply apJ
the only selling came from those opera :
I tors who have been and are still per-
sistently committed to the bear side.
There was general calling Of loans on
Monday when the rate for call money
advanced to IL per cent and this dis
) turbance of banking accommodations
continued until the week ended, when
call money loaned as high as 20 per
cent for the first time since January
1908.

8, this station: CD 1t directly inn
proves the physical condition of the
SOIL by the addition of humus and
the loosening up of the subsoil by
roo' action CD 1t prevents hard
soils from eementing and clay soils
from pudding. CD 1t makes the
SOIL more moist by holding the SHOWS
and rains until they have had a
chanee to soak into the soil. ca
by drying out the soil early in the
spring, thus making early tillage pos
slble. Coz 1t serves as protection
OF tender roots from frost. Co 1t
catches and holds the easily lost nit
rates of which the trees are not in
need at that season of the year
(tJ 1t renders plant food more avail
able by root action and the decom-
position OF humus. (S) BY the addi-
uon OF humus it makes cultivation
and irrigation much easier and more
effective. co The leguminnus
cover crops add plant food by APP
propriating the nitrogen of the al.
and storing it up in the roots of the
plants. (10) 1t checks the growth in
the fall and causes the wood to COM
pletely ripen up, thus preventing fall
and winter injury. 1D 1t prevents
erosion on steep orchard lands (12)
1t keeps the weeds down, and catches
and holds the leaves of the trees
(l3) A series of cover crops on al
kali orchard lands will very materi-
ally reduce the quantity of alkal!
that comes to the surface.
Cover crops may be divided into
the CD Nitrogen gatherers, such as
the clovers, peas, beans, alfalfa and
vetch. CD Those that make potash
available, including cow-horn tur-
nips and rape. CD Nitrogen users
are principally valuable for their
supply of fiber, including such crops
as rye, oats, winter wheat and nat
ural weeds
Each orchardist must study his
individual needs. If trees are max
ing a poor, unsatisfactory growth, it
is necessary to use a nitrogen gather
ing crop in order to add nitrogen, as
we'll as humus, but if the trees are
making a long, sappy growth and
producing little or no fruit, it will be
necessary to use nitrogen con-
sumner for the purpose of checking
the tree growth and compelling fruit
production. By the use of rye or
wheat one is able to secure all that
it desirable in a non-leguminous
cover crop and by using hairy vetch
or Canada peas the soil may be very
materially enriched as well as a
quantity of humus being added to
the soil.
Do not depend upon nature to sup
ply you with a cover crop that win
produce lot of weed seed before
fall, but SOW something that will i'm
prove the land every day that it
grows and will not have to be fought
next summer as a weed.

Railroad News
N. P. READY FOR
MOTT EXTENSION

Dickinson Recorder Post: In the
current issue of The Mott Pioneer
Press, the purchase of the last two
quarter sections OF land along he
Northern Pacific extension from Mott
to Terry is reported. This, it is
claimed, leaves a clear field for the
commencement of work on that ex-
tension this spring. which The Pio-
neer Press believes will bring prosper
Gus days to Mott until the compile
ton of the projected railroad west
from that point. In the same article,
comment is made on The Recorder
Post sketch and write up two weeks
since, relative to the possibility of
Dickinson becoming a great distribut-
ing point. The Pioneer Press says
we fear unless we get busy here that
Mott will have Dickinson beaten to
it by our 500 being on the main line
of the N. p. and Dickinson becoming
a way station on a branch line of the
N. p Editor Whaley has the right
