The development of the marsh land subdivision around Lower Klamath I.ake should be postponed until It has been shown that the lands can be made productive when cultivated.- "Keno Canal power should be de veloped as need-d by the project: the excess) power should bo developed In reoperation with the lr users" association In such manner as to In sure return of cost to the United State. "The par value of the stock of the water users' association Is eufflolent to cover the construction charjje on the f'rst subdivision only. For the remain ing subdivisions new arrangements should be tnjj by which the land will be bound for the full building charge. Modoc Project Approved. "The project as now proposed has) three approved subdivisions and two which have not yet received executive approval. "The lower protect uplands portion Of the protect. 3T.nfl acres In area. In cludes a atrip of valley land extending northwesterly and southeasterly be tween Ktamalh and Tule lakes, to gether with Poe Valley. This valley and the easterly portion of Klnmatl Valley are traversed by I-"t Silver. stream bavin Its headwaters In Clear I.ae and dlscharrlnsr Into Tula Iake. Tlit r'ver has so little fall and Is R-en-erally so far below the surface of the surrounding la.; J as not to be avail able, except to a lim'led extent, for Irrigating these two valleys. Water for this unHvllnn comes from t'pper Klamath latke throuzh the mtin canal and disirlhutlna system, although ISoO acres will be Irrigated by water from Ist River diverted at the proposed Wilson's br'dge dam. -Tule Lake subdivision Includes 33. r0 acres, all to be uncovered by low ering Tule lake. This lake covers .- acre. It to of fresh water and Is fed by Lost River. It has no known outlet, but a small amount of water escapes at the southerly end Into the crevices of the lava beds. By artifi cially enlarging some of the crevices the discharge was temporarily In creased from 10 second-feel to 31 second-feet, but a the lake subsided the outflow decreased; and It seems prob able, therefore, that no reliance can be placed on this method for lowering the lake. In 1SS the Klamath River broke through Its banks at a point three Bill's south of Klamath Kalis, divert ing a considerable amount of water through Lost River Slough and Lost River to Tule Ijike. This caused a rising of the lake until the settler closed the break by a levee. Plan of Work Recommended. -After a comprehensive study of the situation It Is proposed by the Recla mation Service to reclaim from 35.000 to 41,000 acres of land around the northern end of the lake by the follow tug plan: First, the utilization of the reservoir at Clear Lake to regulate the discharge of Lost River. This also provides water which can be used for the Irrigation of lands elsewhere. Sec ond, construction of a diverting dam on Lost Ktver at Wilson's bridge and a diversion channel of :30 second-feet rapacity connecting Lost River with Klamath River. This capacity of 2S0 second-feet provides for a constant dis charge from Lost River of 100 second feet, and for SO second-feet estimated return flow from lands alonz Lost River Irrigated from I'pper Klamath Lake. Third, a dike to be built across the northerly end of the bed of Tula Lake to prevent flooding of the lands after being reclaimed. Fourth, pump at the dike to pump drainage water from behind the dike to Irrigate a nar row strip of land along the easterly side ot the lake. Fifth, a diversion dam near the present mouth of Lost River, together with a distributing eys tem of canals and laterals, as well as drains. In the reclaimed area. By these means It Is proposed to keep all Ixist Ttlver water out of Tule Lake except such flood flow as cannot be controlled by the reservoirs. The main canal from the I'pper Klamath Lake, now used OFKUMATHWORK i OFFICERS WHO WILL direct affairs OF HOOD RIVER ' COMMERCIAL CLUB. N - , : ' e I nJL-. HOOD RIVER. Or.. Jan. M. (Special.) The Commercial Club will have for executive officers' for the following year two able men. Ernest C. Smith, pres ident has been an active member of the club for years past and Is one of Hood Rivers best boosters. He Is a member, of the local county bar as sociation and last year was County School Superintendent. Last year he was a member of the board of directors of the Commercial Club and was active In the campaign for new members. Is active. ceived several prises. This feature the Hood River Valley. In particular. only to water the first subdivision, was constructed with a capacity sufficient to Irrigate these Tule Lake lands. "Attention la culled to the fact that the successful use of these tule lands after being reclaimed depends largely on the prevention of sublrrigntlon from seepaee from the higher Irrigated lands around them and upon the eueeees of the plan to control Lost River floods by mentis of Clear Lake reservoir, the di version channel, and the dike. Action on Marsh Land Deferred. "It was proposed originally to Irri gate tho reclaimed marsh lands by means of the main canal, which was given sufficient capacity for the pur pose as far aa constructed. The drain age was to be effected -mainly by the construction of the Keno Cut and tun nel. Involving excavation In Klamath River to lower Its level, the Improved channel to lead to a tunnel cutting through the bend below. Tower waa to be developed at the lower end of the tunnel. As these plans proved, on more detailed investigations to be too costly, they were abandoned. The con struction of the embankment and trestle of the California & Northeastern Rnllwsy across the marches will, when the embankment Is made continuous, divide mnrshes and necessitate separate treatment of the two portion. Several plans for the reclamation of these marsh lands have been considered by the Reclamation -Service. "Inasmuch, however, as the efforts of the Agricultural I'epartment at Its experiment farm near Any to cultivate these mnrsh iand after being dcalned na ve I'c-n uiinurirnj-nii, - " not consider It advisable to expend fur ther money on the reclamation of these lands until the agricultural possibili ties are better known. In connection with the marsh land suhproject, re quest was made by parties Interested that the government reuulre the rail way to close Its embankment across the marshes and Install the gates for the control of the Inflow and outflow of Lower Klamath 1-ake in the con crete structures provided for the pur pose; that the connection of the Adams and Van Bremmer canals with White and Lower Klamath lakes re severed and the lands under these canals re ceive water from the main canal as contemplated In the final completion of the project; and that the Govern ment make a email amount of exca vation, estimated to cost $60,000, In tho upper part of Ankeny Falls, Klamath River. The parties then de sire to be released from their sub scriptions and be allowed to experi ment with reclaiming their marsh lands which lie south and east of the railway embankment. In view of the conclusions of the board with regard to this subdivision, any work In con nection with these lands Involving ad ditional expense to the United States Is considered Inadvisable. It Is rec ommended that private lands In this subrreject be released from their ob ligations. Mater Taken Into California. "It is proposed to Irrigate certain lands on the north side of Lost River, together with a small area to the south of that river, and lands In the Vonni Valley. by water stored In Horsefly Reservoir, located on the headwaters of Milled Creek, a tribu tary of Iost River. The lands at pres ent Included In It were originally sub scribed to the main project In the belief that the construction charge would be about 30 an acre. As It was subsequently found that this cost would be much greater, the owners were released from their agreement. I'nder the present plan and the esti mated charge about 7 per cent of the landowners have again subscribed. This suhproject has not received ex ecutive approval. The main features comprise the reservoir dam at the headwaters of Miller Creek, a divert ing dam In the ereek In the vicinity of the lands to be irrigated, and the neeessarv canals and laterals. "As Clear I.ake Reserve- -ould not be used to Irrigate isnus ?T.e Lower Ijtngell Valley, as originally contem plated. It became desirable to develop some other use for these waters, and a reconnolssance showed that this water might be diverted to lands In Modoo County. California, and also to the narrow strip of lands In Oregon on the east and north of Tule Lake, above the Irrigating system under the first subdivision. It would appear from In vestigations now In progress that about 13.000 acres can be Irrigated at a cost of about 4 per acre. If this plan Is adopted, the land should bear Its proportion of the cost of Clear Lake Reservoir. The main engineering features of the project comprise the storage dam at Clear Lake, the main canal leading from Upper Klamath Lake on the east side, the Keno Canal leading from Upper Klamath Lake on the west side, the diversion dani In Lost River, the diversion channel from Lost River to Klamath River, the dike In Tule Lake, the laterals and subsidiary distribut ing system, and a power plant and distribution of electrical power for sale and for pumping water for Irri gation and drainage In Tule Lake sub division. These features present nothing unusual or difficult In design or execution.' Those that are con structed appear to have been well designed. The main canal will carry only 600 second-feet, but was con structed, as stated above, wlthacapac Ity of 130 second-feet. The Keno Canal will not now be used to supply water for Irrigation, though originally designed to do so. Water From Three Sources.

In the conducting of the duns Dusiness. alone aid mucn to auveruss vim-u from three sources Upper Klamath Lake, Clear Lake Reservoir and Horse fly Keservolr on Miller Creek. Upper Klamath Lake has a drainage basin of S100 square miles, with an average annual rainfall of about -0 Inches. It has an area of ,00 acres. A storage of 200,000 acre-feet can be provided at small cost. This lake will supply all tho water for the lower project up lands and for Tule Lake reclaimed lands except 100 second-feet, the total required for both subprojects being TiO second-fect. Lower Klamath Marshes, If reclaimed, will derive the necessary water from Link River, di verted at a point below the power plants on the Keno Canal. The upper suhproject will receive Its waters from Horsefly Reservwlr and tho Modoc sub project from Clear Lake Reservoir. There are certain undefined water rights claimed In Upper Iatngell Valley that will have to be satisfied, to the extent allowed, from Clear l.ake Res ervoir. These rights are now being adjudicated, but are not believed to be large enough, even If found valid, to affect the use of the reservoir for the Modoc subprojeet. The adjudication, however, should be completed before proceeding with this subprojeet. An analysis of the water supply for the whole project shows that there will .be sufficient supply for each of the sub projects. "Intimately connected with this ques tion of water supply is the reclamation of the Tule Lake lands. This Is to be accomplished mainly by evaporation, the supply of water being cut oft ex cept In times of floods, by the storage reservoirs, the diversion channel con necting Lost and Klamath rivers, and the use for irrigation of 100 seeond fcet of Lost River flow which enters Lost River below the Clear Lake reser voir. The rate at which Tule Lake would recede under the measures pro posed Is also discussed In :he water supply appendix. From this study it would appear that about nine years would be required to reduce Tulo Lake so that 35.000 acres of land could be reclaimed. The studies of tho Reclama tion Service relative to this subject have been comprehensive, but there nre many elements entering tha problem, such as run-off from the rurroiinllug drainage basin, future :ainfa!l. seep age from lands now being placed under Irrigation, that are more nr leis Inde terminate, and time a lorn ran decide whether the assumptions made are warranted. That 33.000 acres of these lands can eventually he reclaimed In the manner proposed seems probable. Area In Kach Pivlsion. "The aversga elevation of the Irrigable area Is 4100 feet above sea level, and .the average annual rain fall Is 15 Inches. Dry farming Is pos sible, and In years of more than aver age rainfall Is profitable. The Irri gable land under the five subdivisions is shown In tabular form as follows: Subdivision Lower projected nplanris.. Tule Lake lands I.ower Klamsth Marines..

The soli In ths first subdivision Is generally decomposed basalt of good fertility. In the lower part near Tule Lake there Is much fine sand, msklng It difficult to cultivate. The soil Is fairly deep but Is underlaid with dlato mareous ash, more or less impervious, rendering drainage essential. The duty of water is 1.8 acre-feet per annum at the farm, t'nder this first subdivision the first unit of 27.776 acres of sub scribed land and 1771 acres of land to which water free of construction charges waa to be furnished was opened November 18 and December 7, 1908. At the present time J1.860 have made ap plication for water. Reports for 1910 are not available, but in 1909 18.471 acres were Irrigated, the total value of tha crops being reported as $327,210. There are two portions ot this tirst unit which require drainage and this Is to be provided by the Reclamation Service. An item of $10,000 is Included In the estimate for this purpose. "The land In the Tule Lake subdi vision is largely public, but Is wholly covered at present by the lake. The soil Immediately around the lake seems fertile, and much land now covered, due to the rising of the lake in recent years, was formerly exposed and was then equally good. The indications are that the lands reclaimed will prove fertile. "The marsh lands around Lower Klamath Lake are about half public and half private. So far experiments with this land have not given favorable results. It appears to be very diffi cult to work, is very much like peat, and several years are necessary before the soil can be reduced to a cultivable state capable of growing any crop. "The upper subprojeet lands appear to be of good quality and ase easily drained. The owners are desirous of having water brought to their lands. "The Modoc suhproject lands like wise are of good quality and easily drained.
