DIETRICH ITEMS

II. NJ. Fender OF Pagari, father OF
Mrs. Mustard of Dietrich, has return
ed from an extensive trip of several
months travel in British Columbia.
When Mr. Fender left here he had
heard of so many good things about
the great country to the north of us
that he was disposed to look up a new
home for himself and his sons, but the
final conclusion was that a large sup
ply of capital is necessary in order to
provide the desired home there. So
dence here.
When the settlers came into the
Dietrich tract j. RS mith came as one
of them. He bought some money with
him and a considerable number of liv-
cry horses. He bought twelve thous-
and feet OF lumber and built a livery
and feed barn of considerable size.
Business opened good. Smith had all
he could do. Not an automobile in
completely knocked out the livery and
feed business. Mark Quest, a farmer
of the Jerome country, did not think
he could stand the present high price
of lumber bought it and has taken the
barn to pieces and is moving it to his
farm on the Jerome tract. where it
will doubtless do better service than
ii did for Smith In Dietrich.
Miss Carrie Stronach who is very
kindly remembered by the Dietrich
people and who resided with her sister
Mrs. o E. Borden. several years ago, is
now a married lady in Chicago.
L. p. Mustard and H. NJ Fender took ,
an QUITO trip to the farm over in the
Pegari country yesterday.

Water Prospects for Next Year

Work on the bypass above the Magic reservoir is
progressing very satisfactorily. The company ex
poets to have this canal in operation in two weeks
or less. While it is prObematcal how much water
this bypass will conserve in the reservoir MIR.
Chapman the watermaster states that after the ir-
rigation for the erriOry above the reservoir
closed this fall and the full river flow turned
down. it took 80 days for the water to the dry
bed" with loss of over $500 feet. The bypass
will large part of this waste water.
Last year the gates at the Magic reservoir were
left open for long time during the fall and early
winter allowing almost priceless water to go to
waste down the river, doing any good.
This year the gates were closed the
irrigation season closed and the officials state that
they will remain closed until April 1st 1921,
later if there is no need for irrigation water at that
time.
The flow of water in the river above the reservoir
this fall has been increased over 500 by the water
master seeing that all surplus water in the upper
valleys was turned back into the river soon as
the irrigation season was over.
Heretofore the upper rancheIS have drawn sur
plus water for domestic use during the fall and
winter and this water has not gone back into the
river but has been lost to the Carey Act farmers
below the reservoir.
On October 81, 1919, the reservoir practically
dry.
On October 81 1920 it contained approximately
5000 feet.
The Idaho Irrigation Co. officials state that pre-
limnary surveys show that it is practical to store
winter water from Silver Creek in the Magic reser-
voir by means of special canals. Something over
10000 acre feet of water can be saved in this way
at a cost not to exceed $3.50 per acre foot.
The company will undoubtedly construct this
system as soon practical
Silver Greek is the most dependable water sup
nj in 4 ;c fhp
Greek rather than the flow of upper Little wood
that keeps the lower Little Wood river filled with
water during the winter.
The company men are using every effort to con-
serve all available water and the prospects look
very favorable for full supply for next year.
