REPORT FOR RECLAMATION
RECORD. NOVEMBER. 1921,
uNcOMPAHGRE PROJECI

| The weather conditions during No
vember were ideal for both construc-
tion and operation and maintenance
work. Two storms occurred during
the month. one consisting of an 11-inch
snow fall on the 18th. which disap-
peared within a very short time. and
one OF IL OF an inch rain fall on the
25th
Practically all crops were harvested
at the end of the month except corn
and sugar beets. Nearly all the fall
plowing has been accomplished and a
large acreage has been planted to
winter wheat
Some water was used for irrigation
purposes during the month, but the
greater part of the flow carried in the
domestic purposes.
The p. & II. dragline completed the
repairs to the flood damaged banks of
the Loutsenhizer canal and was then
moved to the East canal headworks
for gravel removal and Seaning pur-
poses. At the end OF the month the
dragline was moved to the Ironstone
extension slides for cleaning and en-
largement purposes.
Much spading and brushing was ac-
complished on the project canals and
laterals by ditchrider crews. The nee
essary repairs to the dam and head
works at the Garnet and East canals
on account OF the June foods we're
completed and work was begun on the
repairs necessary to the Ironstone and
Montrose and Delta canal headworks.
The tarring of five fumes on the
West canal main line and the repairs
to the fumes on the lower Selig ex-
tension were also completed.
The section house at the head OF
the c. J. lateral system was completed
and work was begun on the building
OF the section house at the Big Drop
Of the Montrose and Delta canal.
The flow through the Gunnison tun-
mel was shut or on November !, at
which time the concrete sections Of
the South canal main line were in.
spected. At the time OF this shut
down the flow through the Gunnison
tunnel and South canal had been con
tinuous since June 20. which is the
longest irrigation run in the history of
the project. The tunnel was again
shut down on November for inspec-
tion purposes In the Gunnison tunnel
ard was finally closed for the season
on November IL.

have indeed greatly enjoyed reading
the Independent each week, advertise
ments as well as general news l
have been studying comparative prices
along commercial lines as well as land
and investment prospects in Colorado.
1t was indeed a pleasure to meet
you as well as other Western Slope
people on my business trip to the
Western Slope of Colorado a year ago
last August have also carefully
gone over similar conditions up in
Wyoming on behalf of our ex.service
men, and what has become of the
promised Land" that our government
officials so largely advertised at the
close of the World War? To my mind
the great west and especially Colorado
can help fulfill the promise or duty, If
our political machinery can be brought
back into gear again to help harness
the great undeveloped resources of
the west
No doubt you will recall our con-
versation regarding the immense pos
sibilities of Hydro-Power, now going
to waste, as well as the vast mineral
and agricultural possibilities. Why
not turn the tide? See our vast armies
of unemployed ina great nation with
such unlimited. undeveloped resources
Are we asleep at the. switch? What Is
Canada doing for her qualified ex-
service men? Thousands upon thou
sands of them she has started on

they are making good
What does all this mean in due
time but general prosperity? Are we
to finger and die by the wayside'
while waiting for our political friends
down at Washington to help the
''boys"2. If so, there will be an (elec-
tom day of reckoning. not very far
distant. when thousands and thou.
sands of our 1000 American citizens,
together with the help of the Ameri-
can Legion and other war veterans,
will again turn the tide. as well as the
wheels of industry.

ON YOUR WHEATf
Here's How Your Grain Is Graded by
Government Experts.

Under the new grain marketing plan
of the United States Grain Growers,
Inc, to quote from the bylaws, "the
board of directors shall prepare and
recommend rules and regulations con-
cerning the grading and inspection of
grain by local elevators and associa-
tions, together with methods for en-
forcing the same, not in conflict with
state and federal rules, regulations
and statutes"
Therefore, the official grades for
grain will remain as they have been,
and government grain graders will do
their work in the same way as here
tofore. The average man knows very
little about grain grades, and has al
ways taken the grain buyers. word.
Every grain buyer should have the
equipment to grade grain accurately, !"
says George R. Hysiop, Farm Crops
Expert at the Oregon Agricultural Col,
lege. He should have sampling
probe, an oat-kicker. set of dockage
sieves, standard weight per bushel
tester and an accurate balance or
scales for the determination of dock
age. I wouldn't sell my grain, if had

equip himself to do good grading. Why
not? Because he must either grade
or guess. II he guesses high he goes

self, he guesses low and you lose. In
sist on accurate grades, accurate de-
termination of dockage made with
standard equipment"
According to federal Standards,
dockage includes such materials as
sand, dirt, weed seeds. stems. chaff,
straw, whitecaps, grain other than
wheat or oats, as the case may be,
and any other foreign material which
can be removed readily by the use of
appropriate sieyes.
In making the dockage determine
ton a representative sample of the
grain to be tested is secured. This
sample should be weighed out on
finely balanced scale Casually 1000
gram sample is used). Weighing the
grain out in the test kettle" running
it through the kicker" and then
weighing back the dockage or the
grain in the kettle and figuring the
dockage percentage from the gradua-
ton on the beam" requires too much
guess-work, and has been found to be
inaccurate.
After the 1.oo0-gram sample has
been secured for test it is then run
through the oat-kicker. All OF the
