PROPOSES
TO AID STUDY
OF IRRIGATION

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.

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

that there "must be a line some
