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

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

these mnrsh iand after being dcalned

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.

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

Land Sow Vnder Water.
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. The settlers are very desir
ous of having this subdivision Irrl-
