He asked what the ranchers would do for their winter irri gation if the water was wnn held for storage for later dry periods. Mangen said mat ne re alized that considerable winter irrigation was done, but he had not realized that it was quile as extensive as pointed out. The point was brougnt out ov Ralnh Piphards nf the Soil Con servation office that winter irr gation would not need to be a extensive if a more adeuuato supply of water was available at dry periods. Siv'ley pointed out that t!u dam would not only serve flood control purposes, but would pro vide tor recreation anu spun.-, fishing, as well as for wildlife refuge. It would also give some pollution control. It was Drougnt out iu mc mootinar that a reconnaissance fipntinn nf soils has been completed from Heppner to the Columbia river, water nguis ronnrHo havp heen examined, and even with an irrigation dis trict formed, these water ngnu would be protected and respec ted.
