STATE ENGINEER
MAKES REPORT

The preliminary order of determ-
nation of the waters of the Hum
boldt river and its tributaries pre-
pared by State Engineer J. G.
Scrugham and his assistants is off
the press and ready for distribu-
ton, says the Reno Jurnal. The
edicts fill book of 356 pages of
small type and over 10000 sepa-
rate areas are listed as to priority,
length of irrigation season, flow OF
water and acre fee of allotment.

There were over 1000 surveys
and maps made and approximately
100000 water measurements taken
to determine proper water alloca-
ton. In addition about 10000
typewriter pages of testimony and
reports were compiled and digested
in connection with the various of

the state engineers office over

to perfect and complete the work"
says the printed report. more
satisfactory regulation, distribution
and storage of water on the Hum
boldt river is now made possible.
"As soon as the determinations
are considered by the courts and
their findings made effective by
appropriate DEGREES, then irrigation
improvements on the stream sys-
tenn may be expected.

than 1000 miles in length and
nearly every known method of irri-
cation is practiced on the lands
which are watered by the river"
In the preface of the findings
the following statements are found
"Due to the wide variations in
conditions of irrigation practice,
season, soil, crops, ETC., the state
engineer deems it necessary to re-
serve the right as given under
section 36a, chapter LOG, Nevada
statutes of 1921, to modify the
findings on the duty of water and
rate of flow as allocated where il
is afterward found that such mod.
ification is desirable and consistent
with the principle that actual ant

In defining the actual and bene'

give due consideration to the head
required to distribute the water
which returns to the stream bee
and becomes available for the use

"Upon lands where condition.

The belief prevails that the senate
will retain in the measure a provis-
ion similar to that in the house bill
giving protection to the American
potash industry.
The whole problem seems to be
one of the disposition Of the Ameri-
can farmers, and whether they are
willing for the next five years to
pay more for the potash needed for
fertilizer than they would pay If
there were no duty on potash, in
order that there may be built up an
American source of supply that will
make this country Independent in
