About Reservoirs
Continued from page 1
reservoir aito on Othoco Creek ex
tending from tho dum site on the
David Elliott ranch to Mill Crcuk
and flooding, at the mot, about
1100 acres of land.
These 1100 acres, say, are worth
an average of $100 per acre, or
a total valuation of $110,000. Say
the net yearly income from thin
land averuges $10.00 per acre, or
a( totut of $11,000 per year.
' N6w let us take thia tame 1100
acres and convert it into a storage
reservoir of, nay 47000 acre feet
capacity, ftid put this) wuter to
beneficial use on 20,000 acres of
land ih the valley below. The net
income per acre, per year may be
conservatively placed at $52.00
per year, but say it is but $10.00
per acre, making a total of
$200,000 per year, or nearly 20
times the income from the lands
that wero flooded.
This income is enjoyed by an
entire community, while the in
come from the land flooded by the
reservoir benefits directly, perhaps
a dozen or more. t
From the above comparison it
may easily be seen that tho lands
flooded have greater producing
value in this community than they
could possibly have as an agricul
tural unit.
"
The same holds true of a reser
voir in McKay or any other creek
that may be chosen for storage
purposes.
