425.OOO acre feet

THE irrigable land now under the
Boise project proper approximately IS
$4,000 acres. In addition there IS
about 10000 acres being furnished with
partial supply through government ca
mails making total of 204,0O acres.
There was a gain in the Boise river
below the Ridenbaugh headgates on
an average during 80 days from July
%, 1915 to October 10. 1915 OF 4ol cu-
bic feet due to return flow and seepage
or in other words there was oITo more
water delivered to the lower ditches
on the river than was available at the
Ridenbaugh headgate. Generally
speaking this return flow and seepage
will take care of the bitches coming
out of the river below the Canyon at
Caldwell and those on the north SIDE
of the river. The return flow will no
doubt increase from year to year ana
this is very important in considering
the amount Of land possible OF irriga-

river is low and is in a sense new

lived to see his dream in large measure
realized.

his strength, and his physicians advis-

coveted opportunity of travel, which

CONTROL OF WATER POWER

Editor Caldwell Tribune:
Sir-Miners and prospectors note
with some mild concern that several
western newspapers have inadvertent-
ly or carelessly, but none the less rep
rehensibly, given space to an article
by Clifford Pinchot entitled Control
of Water Power"-which article shrills
forth the wailing voice of one crying
in the wilderness" for help.
That old familiar cry for "help" to-
perniciously and destructively NEEDLE
in the business of the miners and pros
pectors of the West-issues this time
not from the enemy Bureaus at Wash
ington bit from the quantity quiet
and sombre depth of that "neck-o-the-
woods" yclept, Milford, Pa. -.
Owing to its heartily welcome alb
sence in the West for some time past.
we really had hoped that wretched
whining voice was welcomely dead
and buried
So we proceed to bury it once more:
That ghoulish, uncanny, gruesome
voice screams from the dark of Mil
ford wood:
81 write to ask for your help to de-
feat a most serious attack on our pub
lie resources"
THE Shields bill now before the
Senate gives to the power interests
without compensation the use of wa
ter power on navigable streams"
Wow, and WOW
Even this ghost with supposed un'
canny power of supernatural insight
now flames out again in its old tamil
lar style when in the flesh, and just a:
of We olden time now seeks to pull
the wool over the eyes of the people
with broad-guaged, all-comprehen
tive falsehood!
The federal government owns M
water power, nor waters IRON which
power could be created.
The federal government does no
own the waters of the rivers-eithe
navipable or unnavigable-they belon

HIGH SCHOOL NINE WINS FOURTH VICTORY
SliktoWn Boys Force Locals to Top Speed for Victory-"Ty'' Byett's
 Big Bat in Evidence,

Captain Kiniry and his bludgeon wielders, came through yesterdav af- ternoon at Walnut Hill Park, when South Manchester High fell by the Wayside, and made it victim number four for the home boys. When the tallles were counted at the end of the fray it was seen that the locals were on the long end of to 3 score, not much, but sufficient.
 When the home team came to the bat in the ninth the score stood three all and with one down, d pair of infeld singles started the home Joys on the path toward victory. With first and second base occupied Try" Byett strutted nonchalantly to the pan, and when one of Paisley's offerings suited him, he rapped it to the outer works bringing in the winning run. This boy Byett can de- liver the goods when called upon to do so.
 The visitors opened the scoring of the game in the fourth frame and managed to keep up with the home koys until the last frame. Paisley who worked for the Silk Town boys was touched up in lively fashion, but luck favored him in some respects, the twelve bingles secured by the locals were in some instances wasted
 The hopes of the locals for gaining ;a victory over Hartford Saturday, do rot present such bright outlook as Heretofore, due to the ineligibility of COnley the star bacllstop to play on account of studies trouble.
 The followers of the locals pin their faith in the right arm of Dudack, who will in all probability, assume the twirling burden for New Britain High. With anything like proper support, Dudack should emerge a victor over Smith.
 The score of yesterdays game follows:
 So. Manchester OOO1110O0-3 7 ? New Britain =. 00OO21O01-4 12

SUNDAY SCHOOL LEAGUE
Five Churches To Have Teams In Circuit-Opening Games Saturday May IS.

At a meeting of the Church Ath- letic League held Monday evening it was decided to have Senior Base ball league this spring. The series will begin Saturday afternoon, May 13, at Walnut IIill Park when two games will be played. Games will follow every Saturday afternoon Up to and including July 1. The follow ing churches will have teams in the league: South, Baptist, St. Marks, Methodist and Center Howard Voight is chairman of the league.
 It has been three or four years since New Britain has had Senior Church league, the field having been occupied more recently by the Juniors. But it has been generally felt that the time is ripe for a leag que more representative of the athletic ability bound up in the various churches. Accordingly the agitation started this spring has resulted in the formation of the league.
 At the meeting Monday night the basketball championship was awarded to the South church, the team repre- senting them having won ciX and lost two in the Junior league during the past Spring.
