At the institute, sponsored by the Idaho Power company. Arthur S. King of Corvallis, Oregon State col lege soil conservation specialist, told the group that "properly installed in the right place and properly op erated. sprinkler Irrigation can help the Snake River valley produce bet ter crops and at the same time save valuable soil and water” . "Borlnkler Irrigation can be a profitable Investment If erosion Ls a problem, If runoff ls excessive. If It Is necessary to stretch a limited supply of water over as many acres as possible and if soil and topo graphy are such that surface meth ods do not adequately wet the soil,” King said. "But sprinklers may be an ex pensive and doubtful luxury on smooth-lying soils of medium tex ture that are already being Irrigated with a well-designed surface system. " I t takes technical and practical knowledge to work out an efficient irrigation system. Assistance ls a- vallable from commercial equipment companies, county agents and uni versity extension services. Electric power companies have field men who are glad to help” Farmers Intending to Install a new irrigation system, the speaker warn ed, should be sure of the water .supply.

Max C. Jensen, Moscow, associate professor and irrigatlonlst, Univer sity of Idaho, said that pumping provides perfect drainage The right amount of water can be pumped to keep the water table where It should be and at the same time the water pumped to the surface can be used to put more land under Irrigation. L. W Brainard, Idaho Power's division manager at Payette, said the institute was contributing to the development of agriculture. "Inefficient pumps, he said, "re quire more electricity, but we are interested In helping customers get the maximum amount of good from their electric service.
