TIMELY WANING.

Marvin Chase, state hydraulic en-
ginser, has issued the following letter
to directors Of irrigation districts in
the state:
Olympia, January Is, 1913.
Dear Sir
The unusually warm weather pre-
railing for the last month has depleted
the water sheds OF the snow which
usually remains there until late In the
spring, furnishing water for irriga-
ton and other purposes during the
summer months. This is particularly
true over the watersheds Of the small
streams Of the state where direct stor-
age has not been made available.
! would, therefore call your atten-
ton to the necessity for having all
canals and distribution systems In the
best possible condition so that the
maximum amount Of water may be de-
livered to the lands early in the seas
On.
Unless we are fortunate in having
An unusual amount OF precipitation
| during the balance of the winter. the
coming season is going to show a
| minimum stream flow. When defic-
iencies occur the effects OF the aridity
are notably increased and an excep-
tionally larger amount OF water is
needed
1t Ia hoped that officers OF all irri-
cation companies and owners or man
ayers OF small bitches will take this
matter up with the farmers to the end
that their laterals and lands may be
N readiness to receive the water early
In the season 80 that the greatest
amount OF water possible may be
stored in the soil. This together with
proper cultivation will materially re-
duce the soil and crop demand later
IN the season.
Yours very truly,
MARVIN CHASE,
State Hydraulic Eng'r.
