Irrigation
Ditch Structures
Can Save Money
By H. L. DUSENBERRY

farmers often ask themselves is, do
irrigation structures pay?" By struc-
lures, we man the small ones in the
farm ditch system. 1t is well accepted
fact that good concrete structures are
not only desirable but actually neces-
sary in the main canal system. They
are necessary to control any stream of
water after it reaches a certain size.
More and more farmers are going to
permanent structures in the farm ditch
system. They have always been recog-
nized as desirable asset. The question
is, do they pay? In some cases, it is
rather hard to manage it so they will.
Suppose the size of stream is about
100 miners inches or to cubic feet
per second and suppose ditch system
is used which requires more or less
constant attention of the irrigator. 1t
is very possible that installing perma-
nent structures such as turnoutS, checks
and gates will not reduce the man hours
required per acre or increase the eff
cheney of operation and save water. 1t
may be that the irrigator has to be
there all the time anyway and he
might just as well spend his time
Shoveling dirt and handling temporary
structures
Chances for Loss
On the other hand, if you are hiring
labor the chances of getting good
irrigator may be better if you have
good structures of a permanent nature.
In case of temporary structures in the
head ditch such as sticks, canvas, ma
nure. and rocks, the chances are very
good for heavy loss of water 1t is
very easy to lose as much as 20 to 40
miners inches in the head ditch because
of leaks through temporary structures.
If this is true, you are losing enough
water to irrigate 2 to 4 acres of land
in 24-hour day.
Suppose for purpose of illustration,
the irrigator covers only S acres of
land per day when he should be getting
if this water was not being lost. If
the irrigator cost you $40 per day at S
acres, the cost is 81 per acre. If he
covers acres, the cost is $1.4O, or a
saving of so cents per day. If the irri-
cation goes on for so days per season,
the annual saving would be $50. In 10
years, this would amount to $3.50, which
would probably be the minimum life of
your structures.
Save SIS a Day
Now, let us suppose you mechanic
the irrigation to the point where it is
a part-time job. Good permanent struc-
lures in the head ditch are a part of
this process. If, by putting in a system
of controls the labor can be reduced to
half, it is possible to save SIS or more
per day per man normally employed
for irrigation. This can easily run into
figure of $500 or more annually.
Thus far, we have only taken into
account the loss of time which so fire.
quently occurs from using temporary
structures. Suppose you are paying So
per acre foot for the water and YOU
lose 40 miners inches of CTS. Then
your actual loss is 81 per day as long
as this leak continues. Here again, we
have not taken into account any crop
losses.
When the peak season of water use
comes. many projects run short on
water. This may be due to limited ditch
capacity or insufficient water at the
source. If this happens, crops may suf-

Cadillac. The average Cadillac car is surprisingly
modest in its original cost . and many models
are actually priced comparatively with the So
called "medium-priced' makes. .~
Then there is the economy of operating
Cadillac. Cadillac's gasoline mileage is simply
phenomenal for car of its size and stature
and its dependability and freedom from repairs
are truly extraordinary.
And finally, there is the economy that comes
from Cadilac's great palue In resale markets all

returns higher percentage of its original cost
than any other automobile built in America
