SUMNER Plans
FOR irrigation MUST
Be RESTRICTED IN 1920
Concrete Dam Construction to Be
Postponed for Several Years,
Board Declares.

TT. Sumner, N. M, Feb 18-The
board of directors Of the Fort Sumner
Irrigation district recently decided
that under the present circumstances
Of the bond market and the price OF
material and labor they would have
to very much restrict their plans for
reconstruction and forego at least for
several years installing the c0ncrete
dam which Is known as the Mark
Hall Dam Site" It was likewise
thought inexpedient at this time to
construct a new dam at the site OF its
present dam for the same reason that
applied to the upper DAM, and for the
further reason that it did not consider
that It was prudent to invest q con-
siderable amount Of money for a dam
on a location that was NOT really the
best obtainable. The circumstances,
however, made It imperative that the
construction OF the works OF the pro-
iect in some form be at once started
and carried out. The board therefore
called on Its consulting engineer for
a plan to make its present dam a de-
pendable and proper diversion weir
promising every degree or permanent
cy. The boards engineer furnished
a plan which, briefly described, con-
templates the building o. q concrete
dam as a core with sheet-piling up
stream and a thirty-two foot apron be-
low. Special circumstances have arIs-
making II difficult to finance the
complete construction Of even this
structure, and the board has therefore
decided 70 construct the section Of its
present dam which "a now out upon
the plans Of its consulting engineer.
This win involve the expenditure OF

nance this work the board has offered
Il bonds TO the owners OF lands IN the

attractive, and sufficient subscriptions
