the history of irrigation agriculture
elsewhere.
The objective of the work under
farm irrigation is, briefly, to retain
in cultivation such lands, already
developed. as will provide economic
home units. to determine the farms
and areas that are marginal or for
other reasons not worth the expense
and effort of irrigation, and to
maintain the civilization already
established as a result of such
farming. The increasing OF total
crop production or the expansion OF
the irrigated acreage is not its OBJ
jective. In any land utilization pro-
gram such as now must be under
taken. the basic essentials SO far as
the west is involved, arr the supplies
OF water available for irrigation
and what they will do. The Division
already has made entertainments
which will be of great helpfulness in
such a program.
Expense Saving Devices
However. the Divisions work in
wolves many other practical angles.
Its Investigations and experiments
in the field of irrigation hydraulics
have produced results of very great
value. in the long run, to farmers
who foot the bills, but Immediately
TO agricultural engineers engaged
in the installation, Improvement,
and operation of irrigation systems.
Thus, a series of studies OF the flow
of water in irrigation and other
cCnduits has produced formulae and
other data now considered standard
throughout the world From the
very inception OF its work the Dl-
vision has taken a lead in the de
sign and invention Of devices need
ed to simplify the problems OF mea-
suring and conveying water Here
again its efforts have had wide rec
Cgnition. The device now known as
the Parshall measuring flume is an
example. This famous flume, de-

sion OF Irrigation is endeavoring to
effect.
Efficient Use of Water
The economical use of water in
irrigation must be based upon the
required by the different
crops under the different climatic
and soil conditions. This was recog-
nized at the outset Of the depart
ments irrigation Investigations, as
was also the fact that current prac-
tice was wasteful. The extreme i'm
portance OF the aScertainment OF
the amounts of water needed in the
irrigation of crops is recognized not
alone by progressive farmers but
also by engineers, courts, and leglS-
latorS who have to allot the vests
limited water supplies to the best
possible advantage. In broad sense
such work has ample justification
in the assertion often made by re-
putable authorities on agriculture,
the history names no region where
agriculture under irrigation mas
been permanent" The reason for
such lack of permanency elsewhere
has been unwise and unscientific
irrigation practices resulting, among
other things. in an accumulation OF
alkaline salts in the surface soils
to an extent reaching toXicity, and
the water-logging of the irrigated
soils through the excessive use OF
water and the lack of either natur-
al or artificial drainage. NotWlth-
standing the history of other ma
tions where irrigation has been
practiced, both conditions are pos
sible Of economic control at least so
far as the better irrigated lands
are concerned, and the methods Of
such control the Division OF Irriga-
ton has been and is now develop
ing. Without such entertainments
and their widespread application
there is no reason to believe that
agriculture in many sections OF the
Western States will not have the

ton, is of simple but practical and
easily-copied pattern. 1t is now used
in the distribution systems of many
hundreds of irrigation projects,
large and small, not only in the
United States but also in foreign
countries. A device of recent per-
fecting promises to have an equally
favorable reception. This has the
purpose of trapping and automatic
ally ejecting from canals the SAND
and small cobbles which SO serious
ly interfere with their efficient and
economical operation, sometimes to
the point of disaster. Another Sue
cessful study resulted in the devils
ing and wide introduction of type
of dam easily constructed by groups
Of farmers at low expense, to cap
ture the heavy loads of debris often
discharged into irrigation systems
and upon populous and highly de-
Veloped valleys by mountain streams
in flood. The principles upon which
these dams operate are now recelv-
ing important recognition by incor-
poration into the works being built
by the Soil Erosion Service.
just as the scarcity of gravity
flow increases the value of the wa
ter supply, so does the necessity to
pump water from underground ba-
sins increase the delivery cost Of If
rigation water. Pumping is one of
the most expensive methods OF wa
ter delivery, but in recent years it
has shown the largest increase OF
any phase of irrigation develop
ment. AS a result, in many valleys
ground water levels have receded,
wells have been deepened again and
again. and pumps have been low
cred in the wells until the conse-
quent increase in the cost of pump
ing has caused a large reduction in
the amount of water pumped to
unit areas. This additional cost has
resulted in demands for further i'm
proVements in methods of sinking
and equipping wells and in INSTALL
ing and operating the pumps best

The last federal census showed that

The nations stake in so import

the national credit agencies now

Moreover, private investors through

suited TO specific conditions. Al
though there has been great ad-
vance in the knowledge of pumping
for irrigation, many pumping-plant
installations have been made under
the direction of the farmers them
selves, some of whom were not IA
miliar with the conditions neceS-
sary to secure economical outfits
suited to their needs. As a result,
many such installations have not
performed efficieatly. What the oil

ing the right kind of pumps for the
kinds of pumping to be done, to
describe proper methods of INSTALL
ing them, and to point out best me-
thodS of operating them, all With
the purpose of reducing costs and
increasing efficiencieS. The Farm
erS Bulletin on this subject, pre-
pared by the division, has had an
enormous and ever-increasing cir
culation.
In the important field of pump
ing, the division now has in progress
a set of experiments which seek to
determine the efficacy and practi-
cability of spreading water dis

rainfall by streams debouching
upon gravel cones at their mouths.
so as to effect the replenishment of
the underground storage. These eX
periments, conducted in Southern
California. where the threat of de-
pletion is most serious, have already
had the effect of extending the
practice to sections not previously
aware of its possibilities.
The natural ano economical
course of development in most irri-
gated valleys has been construc-
ton of small, cheap bitches to wa
ter the low lands first, to be follow
cd later by larger, higher and more
expensive works. AS a result, in
many valleys there is paralleling
and duplication of bitches, and op
posing of rights, which lead to high
costs of maintenance and opera
ton, excessive loss of water, waste
fui use and controversies. where
there should be a unifying and re-
building of ditch systems and a
community of rights. The working
out of satisfactory plans for reVi-
sion and reconstruction work is
prominent feature of the work of
the division of irrigation in some
sections of the intermountain states
In most instances local feeling is
such that some outside agency such
as the division is necessary to bring
the people together.
Of even greater Importance are

tionS of the involved circumstances

other community enterprises OF

works of these projects was fin

area is bonded, the areas affected
by these loans include many OF the
finest valleys of the west. The dl-
vision of irrigation, in cooperation
with the various agricultural eXper-
iment stations and other state
agencies, has made intimate exam
nations of the engineering, agricul-
tural and other circumstances of
these enterprises, which have
formed the bases for readjusting
their indebtedness to conform mea-
surably with current or anticipated
financial conditions. So far, this

al station at Bard and numerous re-
search and experimental activities
of the bureau, the following article
ON irrigation is considered most
timely.
Protests against eliminating the
appropriation were sent to Wash
ington from all irrigated sections of
the country and prompted the gov
eminent TO reScind its action there
by permitting continuance of the
work. The article. prepared by the
bureau OF agricultural engineering,
gives an excellent idea OF its use
fulneSS TO irrigated areas.
Contrary to a belief which IS
widespread outside the west irriga-
ton is not a cheap and easy way to
farm. Given a dependable water
supply, the irrigation farmer carries
his crops to the harvest. free from
the worry of drought, but there are
things to do preceding the actual
use of water which are costly in
time, strength, and money, and
which are not necessary in the hui
mid climates. Even after dams and
canals, for which the farmer even
tually must pay, have provided the
means by which water is brought to
the land. the stubborn desert shrubs
and bushes must be uprooteG and
removed, the fields must be careful
" leveled. and farm bitches and ir-
rigation structures must be INSTALL
ed to effect the proper distribution
of the water. Special tools and ap-
paratus must be bought or made
with which to do these things The
operations themselves are tedious
and must be done carefully at the
start if later eXasperations and ex-
pense are 10 be avoided. Rights TO
use of the water must be establish
ed, and then maintained against la
ter appropriations, and means for dl-
viding the supply and of measuring
it accurately among the farmers en-
titled to its use must be devised and
installed. If the farmer has his own
pumping plant. he is independent
of many of the worries common to
other irrigators, but for them he
merely exchanges others incident
to the Installation and operation Of
expensive machinery anG The pos
sibility Of overdrawing the supply.
Moreover, the periodic application Of
the water to the growing crops is
not automatic. Under the common
rotation system of delivery, when
the farmers turn for water has
come, he must take it or lose it al
together. Often he must do the work
of irrigating at night. When it is
remembered that he has also to
cultivate his fields and harvest his
crops as does any other farmer. his
apparent advantages disappear.
