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. Wcrk. engineer In charge.
