most of il would return TO the parent
stream after doing duty in irrigation,
and be ready to use again by storage
in the American Falls reservoir, thus
to be the best plan for the ultimate
development of the whole country,
but impractical for private enterprise
and the resolution was adopted.
The committee selected vas as fol-
lows:
The Twin Falls projects including
Minidoka, j. c. Wheeler, Twin Falls;
Bingham county, ID. H. Blossom,
Aberdeen; Bonneville county, Grin
Lee of Leorin; Jefferson county, John
w. Hart of Menan; Madison county,
L. A. Anderson; consulting attorney,
Cheney st. Clair, Idaho Falls; con-
sulting engineer, F. A. Banks. Idaho
Falls.
Some of the facts brought out in
the meeting are as follows:
The Surveys Are Made.
All preliminary surveys have been
made on the Swan Lake site, and
data is available in the offices of the
department of reclamation. No
sounding were taken to determine
the depth of bedrock. Some ranches
have been purchased by the govern
ment to be used for the site. Con-
struction work could begin with
little loss of time for preliminaries.
1t will hold about 800, 900 acre-feet of
water and no estimate could be given
of the probable cost, owing to the
disturbance in prices of materials and
labor. Its capacity would be about
equal to the Jackson Lake and the
amount of water passing through that
site is something like four times as
great as what passes through the
Jackson Lake site. 1t would be nee
essary to extend a railroad some dis
tance to reach it during construction.
The American Falls site has a C a
pacity of about two million acre-feet
and gathers the direct and indirect
flow, ~(return flow of all the upper
valleys. No estimate could be given
as to the probable cost, although es-
Inmates made prior to the disturbances
incident to the war.
Moving a Whole Town.
The town of American Falls would
have to be removed to higher ground
The railroad line would have to be
rebuilt for a long distance and put on
top of the dam, the power site al
ready in operation would have to be
condemned, 10000 acres of fine hay
lands on the reservation would have
to be bought, and the Tilden bridge
would be rendered useless in it's pres
ent site.
The time needed to get construc.
ton under way enough to have any
stored water available at all would
probably be two years or more, and
completion would probably take as
much as five years. 1t would be one
of the largest reservoirs in the world
rivaling the n between Texas anG

old Mexico, in the canyon of the Rio
Grande, and the water stored In it
would be used in supplementing the
water rights of the Twin Falls and
Minidoka country on both sides of
the river, and perhaps for the Bru-
neau country in Owyhee county. but
nobody vas representing them in the
meeting.
Too Big for Private Concerns.
For such a large project as the
American Falls reservoir, it was
deemed necessary for the federal
government to take charge of the
work, though private interests like an
association of canal companies Of
many counties might be required TO
put up part of the money for CON
struction to show good faith The
same might be done in connection
with the Swan Valley reservoir.
A great sub-surface reservoir is
already available, but was not used
for the present year of great need.
1t is the area under the irrigated
farms from the surface of the ground
down as far as the water soaks from
canals and bitches, that returns to
the parent stream to feed canals
farther down, and to lessen the
amount of water the ground will con
sumo when crops require it to be
turned on. If the ground is dry to a
great depth when regular irrigation
begins, such irrigations makes slow
progress while the sub-surface is get
ting saturated. 1t is advisable to
store water all fall and winter and all
spring wherever it can be done with
out injuring the soil. In some places
the water flowing in a canal fills the
underestimate reservoir and keeps il
filled to within a short distance Of
the surface, such water level varying
with the height of the point of drain.
age for that locality.
The Cheapest Reservoir.
When the dam was built at Miner
the expense was only about so cents
per acre-foot. Jackson Lake cos
about $3.50 per ~acre-foot. Some es.
Inmates made a few years ago indi.
cate that it would cost about $500 pei
acre-foot to move the town and acquire
the lands necessary to be acquired be.
fore construction work could begin a
American Falls.
Down in the Twin Falls country
they have schedules for the use o
water when sold or loaned among the
farmers, and it amounts to about S;
or So per acre-foot for thirty days, ant
the same schedule would mean some.

RECLAMATION INTEREST OF

Continued from page H.
of a mode. townsite has met with con
siderable favor and means of financing
the building of streets, parks and pub
lie buildings are a very considerable
topic.
Sentiment of upper valley water
users is contained in the following re-
port of the committee on reclamation
appointed at a meeting in Idaho Falls
last week to outline a definite policy
of construction TO meet the water
problem in the Snake river valley.
A resolution vas introduced to Sc
lect a committee to begin steps look
ing to the creation of one reservoir
at Swan Valley and the one at Ameri-
can Falls. Everybody favored the
move, though 1t was contended by
some, that the committees work
should take a wider range and CON
slider starting the work in a way to
secure storage rights of all waters in
the upper valley and include the Du-
bois project, making il disable in the
upper valley first on the theory that

thing like $40 per acre-foot for the
season. The use of stored water basN
ed on such rental values would make
it worth something like a 100 timeg
as much as the first stored water in
reservoirs has cost.
Considerable money was expended
during the flood of 1918 to protect
property from damage, and all the
money that is expended in reservoir
construction on the headwaters OF
the river affords protection against
loss by floods after such reservoir
is in operation.
If arrangements are made to build
the American Falls reservoir it is
expected that it will accommodated
the lower valley and that they will
sell or exchange their rights in the
Jackson Lake so it may be used in
the upper valley, above American
Falls. The cost of the Jackson Lake
reservoir was about 81, 250 900 and
its value now is %yariously estimated
from that price up to an unlimited
amount.

en- farmers this fall.
In reporting to state director of ex-
tension work the committee estimat-
ed that Power county has a thirty
five per cent wheat crop compared
to normal years. In this estimate was
included the statement that the ter
ritory west of American Falls yielded
a fifty per cent crop, the territory ly-
ing to the south was ten per cent of
normal and the other districts we're
about an average of t~hirty-five per
cent normal.
No definite aid in the procuring of
feed and seed has yet been procured
though several agencies are busily
engaged in attracting the federal as
well as state government. Applica-
lions for feed and seed assistance are
coming in every day and the need is
becoming more urgently felt as time
for fall seeding draws nearer. Lo-
cal farmers will need feed and seed
for fall work beginning about Sep
TENDER first and many of them would
do their fall sowing by August 18th
if they were provided with the nee
essary seed. In many case sseed
wheat could be had on adjoining
farms if there was sufficient money
for the purchase.

Fishermen
Catch Eighty of
Rare Red Trout
Becksteads, DIR. Rogers and Jeans
First to Snag Some o fthe Famous
Red Fish Found Only In Switzer-
land and Ait0urist Lakes.

Mr.. and Mrs. w. ". Beckstead re-
turned Tuesday night from an auto
and fishing trip around the loop
Lost River, Stanley Basin, Altourist
Lake and Wood riyer-bringing back
the first red fish which have been
caught by anyone in this part of the
country. The party composed of the
Becksteads, DR.. Rogers, Mr.. and Mrs.
Jeans and Miss Myrtle Jeans caught
80 OF these red trout in Altourist lake
during the day they spent there.
The red fish is a species of trout,
very fine eating, red meat, weighs on
an average about a pound, and us
ually measures at least a foot in
length. There are only two places in
the world where the fish is found, one
being In Switzerland, and the other
at Altourist or Red Fish lake. Fish
ermeE say that the fish are seer only
acc a year, about this time, when
THEY seem to come out of the great
depths and holes in the mountains
(since Altourist lake is crater forma-
tion.) They are blind, so far as has
been determined, for they will not
bite on a hook, but can only be caught
by snagging, spearing or nets. The
fish is considered quite a delicacy on
account of these facts.
Mr.. and Mrs. A. M. Ley and Mr..
and Mrs. W. w. Beckstead composed
the party which left here last We'd
nesday night to make the trip, which
many a fisherman likes to make
around the loop, as they say. They
went to Arco and camped the first
night between Arco and Mackey. The
next day they drove over the divide,
and followed Thousand Springs creek
until they reached Salmon river near
Challis, where they turned upstream
to Stanley Basin. The Legs left them
there, intending to stay another week
while they proceeded to AItourist
Lake. From there they recrossed the
mountains again going owe Galena
summit, 5000 feet high. Mr.. Beck
stead reports that a new highway is
being built, making it possible for
anyone to make the trip over the
summit next year. The present grade
Is about 20 per cent, but the new high
way will cut this down to about 6
per cent. The trip then ended by
coming into American Falls through
Ketchum, HALEY, Richfield and Mini
doka. Mr.. Beckstead fished at every
different stream which he came to
and took in so nice big trout himself,
the longest of which was about Is
inches and weighed around 2 or 3
pounds.

900 a day to the people who
use them. This is the estimate
of the county commissioners of
highways, as reported 20 the
bureau of public roads OF the
United States department of
agriculture. The statistics are
based on a census OF the traffic
taken periodically during the
past four years. The census is
made by selecting 81 points
Scattered throuhgout the coun-
ty, and making seven counts
at each point, one for every day
OF the week. The count is not
made on consecutive days, but
at various periods from April
to November, so as TO arrive OF
average conditions. This cen
sus is taken TO determine the
duration of certain types of
pavement, according TO the
amount of traffic a square yard.
1t shows that about $4,000 We
hicles of all kinds travel the
highways each day. Traffic on
the road has increased about
AZ per cent a year during the
four years in which the survey
has been made.

This, the amended complaint alleges
was done, the warrant issued. but
nothing was done, although Judge
Jones asked the prosecuting attorney
about it on numerous occasions; and
that II was % days later when Cotant
finally filed writ of disclaimer.
Both MIR. Laird and Mr.. Cotant re-
fused to talk for publication on the
case. However. Mr.. Baum, attorney
for Cotant, said that officially they
knew nothing Of the case for Judge
Terrill had refused to cite Mr.. Co
tant before the court on the first com
plant. and that nothing had been
done with the amended complaint as
yet. so far as he knew.
Baum Explains.
MIR. Baum said that the prosecuting
attorney can not issue n warrant. All
he can do is go before the probate
Judge or the Justice of the peace and
make a complaint asking the Judge to
issue a warrant, but this is not man
datory, MIR. Baum emphasized that
there are only two things upon which
a public official may he removed from
office, namely. for collecting illegal
fees, and failing to perform his man
datory duties MS set down in statutes.
He said that no duty that MIR. Laird's
complaint had enumerated was made
mandatory on the prosecuting attor-
ney by statute. II a citation is issued
then Mr., Baum will file answer
