Water Supply
(Continued from Page One)
Data Presented
Crescent Lake Net inflow of
5,000 acre feet compared with av
erage of 11,000 acre leet, or .4b
per cent normal. Lake to peak at
35,000 acre feet. ' ;
Sisters Irrigation district will get
a little better than was actually
received last year but will still
be below normal supplies. The
700 acres under Plainvlew and
McAllister ditches that get water
about one year in three will again
get only stock water this season.
barring some brief high runoff
periods, ferry predicted. The
Swalley canal with old rights will
get the usual adequate supply
for its 4,283 acres.
Must Watch Ditches
All of the officials emphasized
the necessity this year ot keeping
distribution ditches clean despite
labor shortages if maximum
crops are to be produced from
tne limited water supply.
High snow cover and advance
soaking of the watersheds were I
reported relatively better for the)
Ochoco and Crooked river areas
than for the upper Deschutes.
Lack of low snow and little early
runoff into the reservoir compli
cates' the forecast, according to
LaSalle E. Coles, district man
ager. Coles reported storage ot only
12,350 acre feet today compared
with 23,700 a year ago. A fore
cast of 11,000 acre feet of inflow
yet to come was made, however,
compared with only about 3,000
acre feet last year.
' If this amount is 'realized the
8,500 acres in the district can get
delivery of two feet per acre
which will mean a fair supply
with careful use, Cole and county
agent Gus Woods agreed.
; May Bo Better
The 9,000 or so acres that ob
tain water from unregulated
streams ot the Crooked river wa-1
tershed should get water supplies
at least equal to last year and
possibly a little better, it was
agreed. . .
sou moisture in the farming
lands is fairly good over most of
the area, especially in northern
Deschutes and in Crook county,
thoush sod lands are dry In the

irrigated before plowing for later

WIND KILLS INFANT
New York, April 6 iinFqur-month-old
' Peter Francis was
killed yesterday when a high wind
blew his carriage from a second
floor roof, used as a sun porch.
Odell creek Flow of
acre feet, 91 per cent average and 1 start as .early as yast year, how-
about 5 per cent above last year's
flow.
Tumalo creek Predicted flow
of 32,000 acre feet, or 75 per cent
of average but slightly better
than last year, .;.
Squaw creek Predicted flow of
34,500 acre feet, or 73 per cent of
normal and 1 per cent above last
year's forecast.
..Crane Prairie Reservoir has
32,300 now and is expected to
peak at not to exceed 3fa,000 acre
feet.
Wickiup Reservoir now has
67.200 and will go to 68,000. Prob
ably be used only to supply 5,000
to 10,000 acres in north unit late
this season because of delay in
construction work. r .
aiui , .Holdover Lacking i;
THe effect of these amounts of
available water on the projects
supplied is surprisingly similar,
the irrigation and reclamation of
ficials agreed. Perry said that the
6,700 acres in the Tumalo project j
will be able to use creek flow to ;
June 25 and lake water for the i
next 60 days, with nothing but '
small creek flow after. Sept. 1. 1
Lack of holdover available last ,
year necessitates closer figuring,
he said. i
The big Central Oregon district,
supplied from Crane Prairie reser
voir, will have only about 80 per j
cent of the water available last ,
year, O. E. Anderson, district
manager, estimated, though per
formance of Little river is some
what of a puzzle. The Central Ore
gon district, Arnold and Lone
Pine are all expected to pull
through in fairly good shape by
liberal use of Cline Falls water
later in the season.
The 6,000 acres under the
Squaw creek canal and the 1,200 1
acres with prior rights under the
ever.
Forest officials reported that
low ranges are backward because
of cold weather but tnat grass
started on them last fall, making
spring grazing prospects favor
able. High ranges are covered
with much more snow than last
year, they said. Jefferson county
ranges will open late again this
year, said A. W. Christenson of
the SCS.
