DRAINAGE
PROBLEMS
Government Engineer Gives
Views on Situation

Some ten years ago man who
had years of experience in irriga-
ton, remarked to the writer that
sooner or later the ranchmen of
this valley would realize that drain
age and irrigation must go to-
gether.
At that time we felt confident
that our sub-irrigation system
would answer for all future de-
mands.
The time has come when the
ranchmen of the valley fully real
ize the need of drainage. 1t has
also been demonstrated in a small
way that drainage is feasible and
profitable.
Three drainage districts have
been organized under the drainage
laws of the state of Colorado passed
during the legislative session of
1911.
Under this law bonds can readily
be sold at par as the security is
ample to make them a first class
investment.
The largest proposition now be-
ing agitated is the San Luis VAL
ley district which includes 72,OOO
acres and extends IA miles east
and west and 81 miles north and
south lying north Of the river and
extsnds 10 and includes the Mosca
country.
d. G. Miller, drainage engineer
of the U. s. Department of Agri-
culture has at government expense
surveyed this territory and has
planned system of drainage, and
estimated the cost at not to exceed
81 100000 or 80 per acre.
There will be more than 200
miles of tile drains within the dis
trict, more than 60 miles of open
bitches and about 26 miles of out
let ditch to carry the surplus water
from this part of the valley to the
river.
The drainage bitches are to be
one mile apart north and south,
and tile bitches east and west /
mile apart A call has been issued
to pass upon the question of issu-
ing bonds to finance the PROPOSE
tion next Tuesday, July 30.
Engineer Miller was in town
Thursday and explained the de-
tails of his work and related in
stances where drainage has been
introduced
This district is nearly level east
and west with good fall north
and south 30 that it is practically
impossible for individual drain
age.
Large propositions are and have
always been conducted co-opera-
lively and this drainage district is
to be managed by the cooperation
of the ranchmen within the dis
trict.
A. j.. Moses attempts to show
in the Alamosa Empire that from
past election returns, he is the
strongest Democratic candidate for
the District bench. What futile
compilation!
