JUNE REPORT FOR RECLAMATION
uNcoMPAHGRE VALLEY PROJECT

The weather during June was very
favorable for crop growth and all
kinds of vegetation have made fine
on June 26th to 9th in which the pre-
cipitation amounted to 81 out of a
total Of AZ for the month.
Crops were late in starting in the
spring, but most of them were up to
nearly normal at the end Of the
month. Some alfalfa hay was
bleached by the rain on the 26th and
9th, but no material damage was
done.
Farm labor is scarce, and the effect
is noticeable in the hay and beet
fields There is quite little acreage
of beets still to thin and block due
to the scarcity of labor.
There was a heavy demand for wa
ter for irrigation throughout the
month with the exception of the latter
four days, when there was slight de-
crease in the demand due to the rain
and its interference with haying All
canals were run to capacity, except
the South canal and the West canal,
which could only draw about 80 per
cent from the Uncompahgre river dur.
ing the period of the repair of the
break in the South canal.
The Uncompahgre river has given
a good discharge during the entire
month, but the discharge at no time
was sufficient to do material dam.
age along its course.
A serious break occurred in the
concrete section of the South canal
below milepole two on the 9Th. A
second section of the concrete lining
slid into the canal just above Tunnel
1, after the water was shut out Of
the canal.
Repairs were made and water turn

and the West canal were the only ror

BENEFITS OF SWEET CLOVER

Adding Humus.

The northwest experiment station
ut Crookston, Mimi, strongly recon
mends the growing of sweet clover OF
more extensive scale than hereto
fore. A recent statement issued a
the station says:
Sweet clover is not only one OF
the greatest soil enrichers, but is S
valuable feed for live stock. 1t adds
humuS to the soil. because of the
depth to which the roots penetrate
and the ease with which they decay
Land that has been cropped with

lated will grow better stand Of al

Sweet clover is commonly sowr
with a nurse crop. 1t is more easily
