DRAINING FIELD AND RANCH
Necessity of More Extended Work to Secure Outlets.

The successful drainage of the field md ranch has developed the necessity If making more extended work to se- 'ure outlets which are adequate to re- ;eive the water from the several arms. Irrigated land has few, If any, vatercourses, so that drainage wats< must be delivered through artificial iitches, usually to the same stream rom which the water was originally ltverted. The construction of such outlet drains requires the cooperation
 f the owners of land which is to be benefited. This Is secured under the provisions of the state drainage laws, which permit owners of land to form corporate district and distribute
 he cost of the work among the sev- eral owners in proportion to the bene- 1t each will receive. The assessments 70 apportioned are collected as taxes md the proceeds applied to pay for he cost of such work as has been agreed upon. Each landowner within he district then has right to use the outlets and participate in all of the benefits which will accrue from the work
 It Is quite often the case that little ,r no field drainage can be success fully done until outlets have been made. Districts of this character con. aiming 10000 acres or more have been naugurated in the states of Washing ton, Utah and Colorado, but none has IS yet been completed. This feature of drainage, which has but recently been forced upon the people in certain sections, Is new and brings up some troublesome questions concerning the location of such drains as will prove of common utility, and also concern .ng the equitable assessment of their cost upon the several tracts of land for which they provide drainage.
 There are at least 800,000 acres of irrigated land which now require draining in order to make them profit ably productive, the larger part of which will require the construction of outlet drains in which more or less cooperation of property owners will be required. After the land which Is drained has become fairly free from alkali, with which 1t Is often highly charged, the water flowing from the main drains becomes highly valuable for irrigation. Such water then be- comes an asset, since 1t may be used to irrigate lands occupying a lower level. These questions have not yet been adjusted satisfactorily in connec- ton with drainage projects. In fact, they are only broached when the ne cessity for public drainage districts re- quires their consideration. It Is quite certain that drainage districts must soon be as much feature of irrigated farming as they now are of agricul- ture in the humid sections.
