Project Drainage Progress
Shows Excellent Results
Mileage Will Exceed Extimates by
80 Percent. Makes New Record

6. The rate of depreciation is a
fixed amount per shift depending on
the class Of machine. This rate Is
used on all machines in the Reclaim
alton Service and has been found by
experience to be ample to care for
the wear and tear on the machines
Our machine and equipment accounts
are in healthy state.
T. AS pointed out In a previous re-
port the estimate and plan accom-
panying the drainage contract pro-
yided for the following drains:
Glass l Drains, S1.20 miles at
s6,72S per 6,333. Class
Drains 1895 miles at 6982 per mile
-$139,295. Class Drains. 1866
miles at $s940-$148.S65. Total
$S24,491.
This gives an average estimated
cost of $1,000 per mile.
8. The contract provides for an ex-
penditure of 100000. On May 1st
approximately $4S2.000 had been
spent on drainage construction. In
addition about $4,000 have been
sepnt ON investigations mostly prior
10 beginning construction work. This
makes total of approximately $780,
600 spent on May 1, 1923. This
leaves a balance of 100000 to be
spent. Assuming that future drains
can be constructed at 81 per foot we
can build about 35 miles more of
drain. This added to the 9S.3 miles
already constructed makes total of
1893 miles.
s. At the estimated cost OF $1,000
per mile we would have spent our
100000 now, on the 9S.3 miles
C, Instructed Instead we are going to
const act 81 miles more.
10. Our drainage costs on the
Newlands Project indicate that we
are Dulliins dra,ns considerably less
than on ciho projects in the Reclaim.
ation Service
L. Since the drainage construc-
tion started approximately $4,000
acre feet of water has been dis
charged from the drains. A large
part of this is seepage water heav-
lily impregnated with alkali. A rep.
resentative sample Of drain water
from all the drains indicate a salt
content of over 1900 parts per mill
ion. This shows that over 206,020,.
600 lbs. or 10000 tons of alkali
were removed from the soils of the
project by drainage.
IL. Every effort is being made to
keep the costs down to a minimum
and at the same time do effective
satisfactory work. Our aim is to
give the Truckee-Carson Irrigation
District the best possible drainage
system for the money being spent.
A. W. WALKER.
The Fallon standard. (Fallon, Nev.) 1920-1958, 1923-05-23

The work of draining the New
lands Project which is one of the
largest undertakings under operation
that a survey of the progress is of in
terest to the entire state, especially
that the Spanish Springs addition to
the project is started on its way,
and what has happened in this sec
tion of the project will eventually
probably apply to the new sections
that will be brought in.
A remarkable feature of this drain
age canal system is the rapidity of
its completion together with the
small cost that has come through
efficient work and modern machinery
The following statement which
carries the work up to the present
time, furnished by Engineer A. w.
Walker, who is incharge of the drain
age and its difficulties, gives a con-
else idea of the accomplishment and
the over product that will come from
the initial estimate:
Memoranda on the Cost and Progress
OF Drainage Work to
May 1, 1928
l. Drainage work has now been in
progress about 20 months and it
seems opportune and advisable to
summarize the results accomplished
and make a general statement as to
the costs of the work completed.
2. The work is being prosecuted at
present with seven dragline ma
chimes working on a two shift basis
with the exception of one small drag
line which works one shift only on
cleaning old surface drains, empty
ing into the newly constructed deep
drains. One structure crew is en-
gagged in putting in necessary struc-
lures such as canal lateral and high
way crossings and waste water inlets
into the drains.
3. To May /, 1928, 9S.3 miles of
deep drain have been completed in
yolving 3,927,675 cubic yards of ex-
cavation. A total of 929,017 board
feet of lumber have been placed in
500 structures. The structures placed
consist of 152 culverts, S07 waste
water inlets. 80 bridges, 13 fumes
and 2S miscellaneous structures.
4. The total cost of constructing
the 9S.3 miles of drain to date is ap-
proximately s4S2,000 which gives an
average of $4S20 per mile, or 92c
per foot.
5. A total of 3,927,675 cubic yards
of material have been excayated in
the construction of the 9S.3 miles of
drain at an average cost to date of a
trifle less than s cents per cubic
yard. This price includes leveling
spoil banks, moving to new work, de-
probation of machines, labor, sup
plies, oil, gas, etc.

Must Clear Title
To Fair Ground,
Says Governor
Committee Morkin o
to Secure Deed TOR
the State

While Fallon is designated rs the
place for the State Fair, and sofle
plans are being talked over relat fe
to the assembling of exhibits and tae
program that will be necessary, there
is hitch in the arrangements which
will have to be settled before the fair
really is set down as a certainty.
Recently Tom Dolf, as president of
the fair board stated that the old
trouble of clearing the title to the
fair grounds is still in the air. and
the governor has given out flat-foot-
edly that unless this matter Is settled
the state will not spend money on the
buildings or the exhibits. The pavil-
lion needs repairs and the grounds
need lot of cleaning and straighten-
ing up before plans can be made,
and without state money little can be
done along this score.
The trouble has been that the deed
to the ground has not been delivered,
in fact a string has been tied to 1t
that so far has not been cut. 1t is
ancient history in the minds of the
people and the state board that there
has been flaw in this particular gift
to the county or state, and the pro-
yiso that fair must be given every
SO often has been factor in render
is almost impossible to handle the
exhibits as they should have been.
At the recent meeting held in this
city it was stated that this feature
will have to be cleared up. A COM
mittee was named at the time to go
into details and ferret out the trou-
bles, and If possible to secure the
deed that will make it possible TO
gain state aid in making the Fallon
fair state proposition.
This committee has been working
to bring about the desired results,
and until this all important matter
tempt made to figure out the pro-
gram. Other members aside from the
governor were emphatic in their
assertion that the deed to the Fall
Ion property must be cleared up. The
people of this community have kept
faith with the originol proposal and
they are as anxious as the state
board to see the situation made clear
Either Fallon will be furnished the
deed or lease or there will be no fair
is has been emphatically set forth by
those who have the handling of the
funds that provide the wherewithal
that sets the wheels in motion.

Past Week Activity
In Fallon Oil Field

Owing to the casing at the Syndi-
cate becoming fast, work for the
week has been suspended Tools
have been ordered that will be used
in loosening up the casing when it
is expected to resume drilling oper-
ations. All sorts of reports are out
regarding conditions and showings
at this property but it is asserted
that there has been no radical change
in development 1t is the intention
of this company to sink as deep as
possible with the small string of cas-
ing that is being worked through.
At the Calneya the new cable was
received late last week since which.
time drilling has been resumed.
Those who have been watching de-
velopments at the property assert
that an excellent oil and gas showing
has been made and that the casing is
resting or a heavy clay that has shut
off the water.
Since the arrival OF the cable, A
c. Robinson, general manager, has
been almost continuously on ths
ground The rig, which has been re-
modelled, is handling the tools salts
factorily and the objective In this
case shoHd be possible within a
short time
Work as reported from the Lahon-
tan is satisfactory, as the hole has
been cleared and drilling has been
resumed The Lahontan has had
some hord luck which delayed active
operations for the past couple OF
weeks. Work over the field has been
of a satisfactory nature despite the
delays.
