Irrigation for Western Kansas.

Following are the views of II. B.
Walker. state irrigation engineer, as
expressed at the District Farmers
meeting held in Oakley last week.
The numerous wells that have been
constructed in Western Kansas for
domestic use indicate that there is,
beneath the western third of Kansas
great quantities of sheet water. This
water seems to occur at certain eleva-
tiOns and since it is sheet water the
surface of the sheet water does not
conform strictly with the general
lay or topography of the earths sur
face. Our steam valleys have been
erroded out and naturally the surface
of the land in such localities is much
nearer this sheet water than the sur
face of the land in the upland regions
The quantity of water encountered
beneath the surface of the land at
any given point will be practically
the same as at any other point, or in
other words this sheet water occurs
in sufficient quantities so that if
properly pumped, water may be Sc
cured for irrigation purposes.
The problem of irrigation in West
ern Kansas is not so much one of
whether we have water or not as it is
problem of devising some practical
method of bringing the water to the
surface of the ground. Where
pumping for irrigation must be
practiced, mechanical methods must
be used to raise the water. Since
this involves power it is evident that
the question of the depth TO water is
one that is closely related to the
practicability of irrigation.
Other things being equal the man
who lives in the valley where the
depth to water is very shallow has a
decided advantage over the man who
lives on the upland where the depth
to water is two or three times more.
The question of irrigation develop
ment in western Kansas. then. de-
ponds more or less on the depth to
water. However there is, in the
state of Kansas, between 2,5OO. 600
and 100000 acres of comparatively
shallow water land. This land, if
developed by pumping, would make
an irrigated area as large as Califor-
mia or Colorado irrigated in 1909. No
one would question whether or not
these. Estates were irrigation states,
but since this shallow water area in
Kansas comprises only a very small
percentage of the total area of the
western third of the state il is hard
for Kansas people to realize that the
development-for our shallow water
areas alone, would make il possible
for Kansas to become one of the
leading irrigation states of the
Union
do not mean to say that irriga-
ton cannot be practiced in the up
land regions On the other hand i
am firm believer in irrigation on a
smaller scale for the upland farmer.
The development of any rural dis
trict depends upon good homes and
in the western third of the state it
has been difficult problem, in the
past, to- have all the comforts of a
home where dry farming alone is
practiced, but Western Kansas is

club. The report is hard to believe,
as | feel that the Brooklyn people
would not knowingly sign a player
under these circumstances.
If Marquard has done this he will
questionably be expelled from the
Baseball Players Fraternity, as the di.
reetorS absolutely will not countenance
amy such disregard of their obligations
by its members -
Marquard joined the Giants in the
fail of 1908 from the Indianapolis club
of the American Association. The pur-
chase price was $11, 900, at that time
the record price for minor league
player. His start with the Giants was
a dismal failure and it shook his con
tidence to such an extent that for two
whole seasons he was next to worth
less. First known as the $1,000
beauty, he was later dubbed the $1L.-
600 lemon. In 1911 he began to i'm
prove and his pitching figured promi-
nently in the winning of the National
League pennant by the Giants that
year. In 1912 he experienced his best
season rs a Giant, his winning record
being featured by a run of nineteen
consecutive victories before he suffer
ed his first defeat of the year on July
.. In 1913 Marquard again proved
consistent winner and he helped the
Giants materially in their third sue
cessful fight for a penulnt. During the
season just closed Marquard failed to
show any of the form which featured
his work of the preceding campaigns
and his failure played a strong part in
the loss of the pennant by McGraw S
men. His "break' during the past sea
son followed the memorable twenty
one-inning game at Pittsburgh. in
which Marquard won over "BabeD
Adams by the score of 2 to l. The
strain of the game was blamed to a
great extent for Marquard S failures
later in the year, when he was defeat.
ed twelve straight times.
Marquard after his success in 1912,
was a 1918 holdout, and was finally
signed by Dick Kinsella, who made the
trip TO the Pacific coast, where Mar
guard was appearing in vaudeville.
That contract was for two sehsons, but
it was called in last spring bv the
Giants and a new one for three years
was issued.
