Reclamation Service Files
Suit Against Farmers in
Pecos Valley.

The United States reclamation
service. represented by p. ". Dent
district counsel. filed a blanket in
junction suit on Saturday in Santa
Fe. y. NJ, against SO agriculturists Of
the Pecos valley, seeking to prevent
them from Withdrawing the water
from the river above the Avalon and
Mcmillan dam. Of the Carlsbad project
which impounds water for irrigation
purposes in the valley and is owned
by the reclamation service
The action taken by the reclama-
ton service is based upon the uni
versal shortage Of water in the Pc
COS valley. due the increased acreage
placed in cultivation and the lack or
rain in the valley which, according to
the weather bureau records at santa
Fe. has been the smallest in p years
DrOuth killing Crops.
The crops in the lower Pecos val
ley are slowly dying as the result OF
a drouth extending for over a month.
said Mr. Dent, and the irrigation Of
ficials can afford no remedy as the
reservoir is empty and nearly all the
available water is being extracted
from the river above the dam by the
use Of pumping plants which have
been installed by the farmers and
which have been used in recent years
without objection on the part Of the
reclamation officials, because there
was plenty OF water available for all
irrigation needs"
The Pecos irrigation project is %
years old and one OF the Oldest IN the
country IL was originally owned by
a private corporation but because Of
financial difficulties IL was sold TO
the government in 1896, which gives
the government a prior right TO the
water in the river and furnishes a
foundation for the fljunctiOn suit
filed by the reclamation service. it
