Valuable Suggestions by Engineer
On Harney Valley Irrigation Plans
Portland, Oregon.
Oelobur 2!tril, 1021.
Mr Wllllnni Fnrro,
H,.rns, OroKon.
M. (I mi r Mr. Fnrre:
I have boon vory miiuli Interested

,k of our Uommlttoo, studying
p B.ilillltl08 of pumping wutor j

This will comu about through Irri

f.rm iron which will offer tho great-
t rotum to the prpilucer.
On tho subject of pumping water

which I huvo not seen expreeeed In
invious discussions of the subject.

Tlio ruto of undorgr und flow of

soil particles at a rate which depends
upon the coarseness of the soil ami
tho Hlopu but Is ordliiarlly only u mat
tor of Inchon or a vory fow feet u

llnmoy Valloy, the underground sup
ply would be replenished to a certain
degree by the Inflow foom tho nioun
tnliiH to the North and to the Booth
and from tho high ureas Kast and
west of the Valley. The underground
water supply would also pe replen
ished, frems the winter precipitation
awl from the absorption through the
Wed or streams. After you sum up
all of these additions to tho under
ground storage reservoir, It nooms
very unlikely that It could possibly
be replenished ut the rate thu water
Is removed for surface Irrigation
purposes. Under the conditions, I
seriously doubt whether there Is any
portion of the Harney Valley where
complete Irrigation of the surface
area would not result lu drawing
down thu underground water level at
n rapid rate. For a given section the
first wells developed would undoubt
edly hold up very well and give
promise of permanent success but
as the time came when a large solid
area of laud was completely develop
ed with a woll on every 80 or ICO

od for Irrigation, the probabilities
tho tliut the entire water table would
be drawn down to such an extent
that none of those wells could bo
pumped profitably. There Is no
doubt' that n very 'largo total area ol

for tbo Harney Valloy to profit from
tho unfortunate oxporloucos in other
