HILLS BROS COFFEE IW0 " tho valley west of Bear creek has caused apparent rise In tho water table for tho summer, and reached the djmgcr point over approxi mately xuoo acres, Knglneor Work nit id. On August I, last, on about 20.000 acres of west valley laud the water table was within ton feet of the ground surface. The water table was apparently higher last year In much of this area, than for t he previous five years, though data and facts aro not uvallable to Mate positively In nil instances. Cause Listed Among the contributing causes f the htuh water tables ar listed' the mlsuso of Irrigation water, and Irrigation ditch seepage. Reduc tion of irrigation water wate will ureatly aid In tlie solution of the problem. The practice of orchardlsts and others throwing limbs of trees and it her debris In irrigation ditches and natural drainage channels. Is frowned upon by Kuglnecr Work, as hindering natural dralniiRO flow and Increasing seepage. It Is rec ommended that the county agent's office and Irrigation district heads advise against coutlnuanco of tho practice. Pumping for drainage rllof, Is not considered practical. It Is augKcstod that deeply laid tile lines and pressure relief wells should bo considered In working out tho drainage solution. Immediate work, tho engineer holds, should he done In wet areas, where residents are responsivo to the need of scientific drainage, nnd that field demonstrations should be made this year, on the theory that nothing In so convincing us seeing, where doubt exists. Neeits Tidd Other needs listed by Knglueer Woi'k are data on the minimum water needs for pear bearing orchards, and other crops; best methods of Irrigation for light soils, nnd continuance of tho pres ent observations of water table marks In drainage wells. Tho survey reveals that there Is no alkali soil In any part of the valley. Data of water determinations were made on flvo or A tracts. to gather information on ihe ma0 Imum und minimum use W W Wi thin water. Further work alfflhg this line Is h'ling undertaken, ns a phase of fvWire draiuaKf study work. Much of the report Is technical, dealing with soil formation, lay of the hind, nnd the history of drain age In thf volley, nrrnnged with extreme rare (id thonniKhness by II. A.
