UNIVERSITY PROFESSOR
NAMED ON Committee

Prof. r. M. Lewis of the department
of agricultural engineering of the
! university has accepted an oppoint-
ment by the Exchange club of Boise
! to serve on a commission to consider
the question of obtaining water sup
ply from Stanley Basin to irrigate the
Boise-Mountain Home tract.
Warren G.. Swendson, state COM
missioner of reclamation, and A. j.
Wiley, consulting engineer of the
United States reclamation service,
are the other members of the com
mission.
In the letter of appointment it is
stated that a report will be made by
James B. Hays, Boise engineer, for
the commission to pass upon. 1t is
intended to cover the water supply
only, at this time.
The area of irrigated land involved
contains nearly half a million acres
in the Snake river valley between
Boise and Mountain Home. The Ore
gon Short Line runs through the CEN
ter of the tract.
The invitation to Professor Lewis
was extended by Herbert G. Meyers,
president Of the club and a special
