PROPOSES TO AID STUDY OF IRRIGATION (Continued From Page One) the Klamath district is .decreas ing. "I think we should have -11 thi water we need, but get me right I'm not in favor of need lessly flooding the land," said H.imniond. He stated that his own land is in better condition now than it was 40 years ago, despite steady use. Limit Net Heeded The KID contract indicates an allowance of 1.8 acre feet of water to that district, and excess charges have never been imposed. It was stated, how ever, that more than 1.8 acre feet have been used, and Laton Stephens, reclamation engineer, said in this connection "we've been giving them all the water they wanted." ' J. R. Ratlin, KID director, tol '. the commissioners that experiments have been made in control of white top weeds by heavy . -ter use. Dr. Peterson said his perience would In dicate such a method would not prove effective. Jay "airclo, Henley farmer, said that eel-worm control might be effected by generous watering to maintain a , low temperature in the soil. M. T. Prince, chairman, and other directors of the Langell Valley district, appeared before the board. Prince said the dis trict is allowed 2 acre feet on the Clear lake side, measured at Malone dam, but there is loss from Malo... dam to the land and that the farmer should get their 2 acre feet at the land. He said they would like to have their contract changed to provide all water needed for beneficial use. He also stated that more water should be held in Gerber dam against the pos sibility of a shortage In- some dry season. At the close of the Langell Our so-called "funny bone" Is valley testimony, Mrs. Dorothy located at the lower end of the Eyers. secretary of the Horsefly bone known as the "humerus." 1 Irrigation district, appeared be- I ' ' ! Has YOUR mirror got a curtain in front of it? Mow to look funny a- ALL OF US know men who scorn the idea of being "stylish." Sissy, they call it. Maybe so. But, just the same, none of us wants to look t even in his overalls. funny- I What keeps YOU from looking like Sir Walter Raleigh, while others laugh? Aren't you glad styles have CHANGED? 2 or what made you give up peg-top pants and bulldog toes? Don't say "they quit making them." You could etiU buy them. 4 Here's what hap pened: One day a cloth ing store put an "ad' in the paper. A lot of men saw it. They bought the "new-style" suits. They looked nice. Pretty soon even CARELESS men weren't looking funny. 5 A dime spent by a mer chant in newspaper advertis ing, helpingyou to buy better style and value, cuts his selling costs and saves you dollars. And who wouldn't spend a dime to save a dollar? fore the trio of sped! examin ers and testified that the district was presently irrigating 8600 out of 8000 irrigable acres. Mrs. Eyers said the present water supply, based on 8000 acres, was enough to adequately handle their present needs on S600 acres but she stated it would not be enough in the fu ture when thi acreage balance is cultivated. The Horsefly sec retary said she did not consider two acre feet enough water to properly irrigate the district land in all cases. The Horsefly picture is further complicated, she testified, by the fact the water la measured as it leaves the pumps and not when it reaches the land. An un usually high ditch loss results in only a portion of the original flow reaching the crop area, Mrs. Eyers said. Enterprise, Pine Grove, Malin and Sunnyside irrigation dis tricts were represented at the Monday hearings. Varied Answers In general, witnesses before the special commission agreed that beneficial use should be the ruling principle governing the supply of water to farmers with out extra charges. The Investigat ing commissioners, however, got varied answers when they asked just how it would be best to de termine beneficial use. M. M. Stastny, secretary and director of the Malin irrigation district, said he did not believe a fixed allowance would be prac tical on a permanent basis, be cause of changing conditions. which would cause a variance in the amount of water which could be beneficially used. A.- M. Thomas, superintendent of the Enterprise district, said that the secretary of the interior should determine and establish the duty of water on the basis of modern conditions. Inadequate ' Both witnesses and others making appearances agreed, however, that the 3 or 31 acre feet provided for in original con tracts of the nearby districts are not adequate for irrigation farm ing under conditions which have developed since the contracts were written. Dr. William Peterson, one of the investigating commission, made the statement at the after noon session that "we feel a pro pee duty of water would curtail waste. Those using their water efficiently would get water for maximum crop pro duction, while those who waste would be restricted." He added that it might be necessary to change methods of irrigation in working out the problem. Appearing as a witness at the morning session, Superintendent Thomas of the Enterprise dis trict pointed out that the fed' era! government or the reclame tion bureau do not own the water of the Klamath project and cannot "sell" water to farmers. Director Stastny of the aMlin district presented figures on irri gation water use by a number of Jarmers. He said that on the "etrasek brothers operation at Malin, it had been found that six acre feet could be used bene ficially. Growers who have used the most water have produced the best crops, he said. He also quoted the experience of Stan ley Johnson who irrigated 22 times on one farm and produced one car of No. 1 potatoes per acre. Because of conditions on theif farms, or the use of fertilizer, some farmers use two or three times as much water as others, Stastny said. He said there are no measur ing devices on the district but that installation of weirs is being considered. Asked about the excess charges, Stastny said the dis trict feels it is paying too much now for operation and mainten ance to te reclamation bureau, and objects to paying any more. Change Eyed Attorney Fix said that at present, the money derived from excess charges is used as an offset to O. and M. charges on the main division of the pro ject. He asked Stastny U the district would object is this charge Is applied against the O. and M. on the district exclusively. "We wouldn t really be pay ing anything extra that way," said Stastny., "I don't see why we would object to Juggling of the books if it didn't cost us anything." G, J. A. Drewelow, a direct or of the Malin district, said that he regards the excess water charges an "imposition." H. R, Jackman, another di rector, said he feels the bureau 'has no right to restrict our use GDI TEES SELECTED FOR LJ IKE ROUNDUP 3 Oh! So you watched what OTHERS were wearing!

"Be on guard," he says "equally against pessimism and optimism. The Russians, ha admits, are showing "magnificent strength and courage," the battle of the Atlantic Is going better and Ger man air superiority is being broken. But he adds: 'The worst Is not over. The vast mass of destructive muni tlons which tho Germans have mude or captured, the courage, skill and audacity of their strlk Ing forces, tho ruthlessness of their centralized war direction and the resources of many lands which may to some extent be come avnllnble to them forbid the slightest relaxation."

He said that on one field he had used 4t acre feet beneficially In irrigation of potatoes. He agreed that there "must be a line some where" but said the limit should be high enough to permit bene ficial use at all times. Attorney Fix at this juncture indicated it might be necessary to obligate the districts for addi tional construction charges to carry all the water asked. Both Stastny and Jackman said that some private pumpers are getting water from the bureau's canals without paying their full Just charges. J. L. Fotheringham appeared for the Sunnyside Irrigation dis trict and the Van Bremmer Ditch company. He also objected to excess charges. s DAVID O.
