VOLUME Of
TEXAS RIVERS

The determination of the amount
Of water flowing In the streams of
the Rio Grande basin which covers
the greater part Of New Mexivo
large areas In southern Colorado, and
considerable territory In Texas and
old Mexico. is of unusual Importance
to that region which is for the most
part an arid agricultural country, en-.
tirely dependent on its streams for
irrigation.
Water Supply Paper 32s, just issued
by the United States Geological Sur
vey, contains records for 1912 of the
discharge of the Rio Grande and its
principal tributaries, together. with
that of Brazos River and Colorado
River of Texas.
The data are of international i'm
portance for ii is alleged that the I'm.
equitable diversion of the water In
both Colorado and New Mexico has
destroyed large agricultural values in
Mexico Certain issues have also
arisen between the States Of New
Mexico and Colorado because the
people OF New Mexico contend that
a disproportieuate part Of the water
OF the Rio Grande originating In Col
ora''o Is diverted in that State, to
(, letriment Of interests In New
Mexico. These international and in
terstate complications are now being
investigated under competent auth
GRITTY, and the results of the stream
flow measurements contained In this
report OF the Geological Survey con
stitute a part Of the evidence that
will be used In the final decisions. In
addition to the results procured by
the Survey in cooperation with the
States OF New Mexico and Colorado
the report contains records Of the dis
charge OF the Rio Grande proper,
obtained by the International Boun'
