Crops Escape Serious Hurt No apparent damage was suffered by the approximately 6000 acres of crop lands we.st of Tulolake that were without Irrigation water for one week recently, according to E. La Ion Stephens, superintendent of the U. S. bureau of reclamation. The land sown In clover, alfalfa, barley and potatoes Is receiving water again after a brenk In J-l canal flume on Lost river at Tule lake was repaired. During the re pair work water was cut off from the fields. It Is hard to tell at this time, what affect if any. was made on the crops by going without water during the warm, dry weather, Stephens said today. The potato fields are most likely to be affected. Stephens pointed out. as the halt In growth at this season afler their setback from frost earlier in the year may retard them further until early fall frosts strike in the Tuleliikar area. At present however they seem to be in the same fair condition they had reached before the water was shut off.
