TAE BISMARCK TRIBUNE 'STATE ENGINEER M’MAHON MAKES SURVEY OF IRRIGATION PROJECT IN WARD AND M’HENRY COUNTIES | vessel | as latitude ‘In Ordinary Years the Mouse River Carries Enough Water | said, | to Provide Additional Moisture eded For Irri- | gating the Light Soil, Report Shows storage facilities will be f the proposed Mouse Riv- ion project in Ward and M Henry counties is to be successful, report by George McMahon, state en- who surveyed the project, | | | Ample* | necessa’ es on the annual flow of wa-| Mouse river, compiled du 23 years, show that the {amount of w: ssing through the | |channel in a year varies to an unusu- | ‘al extent in comparison with other streams. | ‘In 1923, the report shows, a total | | of 259,842 acre feet passed through | the river channel at Minot, That, | means enough water to cover 259.8 jacres to a depth of one foot. feet passed down the stream. . Despite the fact that the stream is subject to such wide variation in the | amount of water passing through its channel, MeMahon said, enough w e been provided in 22 | years to irrigate the hich it is proposed | to place water if the project is: car- ried to completion. Since the age rainfall in the Mouse river ley is 14 inches a year it would be sury only to eke out the natur ure in order to assure a suce Me. 30,000 acres on n moist ly Plenty of Water Stnte experts who have worked on the project estimate that with an w \}for an earthern ve rainfall of 14 inches it will be tion to obtain the bes sults in the light soil of McHenry county, a total of 45,000 acre feet u! year for 30,000 acres. In only three | years has the volume of water car by the stream fallen below that figure. “It therefore seems safe,” said the report, “to assume that 30,000 acres may be irrigated without providing Continuing the report says: “As average flow of the stream over a ar period exceeds 100,000 acre feet, it seems safe to assume that an additional 10,000 acres could be de- veloped. with a secondary water right. It is thought that if this area were in hay lands the losses through a failure of the water supply would not be excessive.” Soils Highly Productive Turning to soils the report says: “The soils on this project are, for the most part, a fine sandy loam’and are highly productive under rainfall conditions. The the soil will somewhat lessen the difficulties of providing drainage for this project. Natural drainage chan- nels may ultimately have to be deep- ened or straightened to some extent. Three proposed sites for the reten- tion dam are outlined in the report. The first would be just north of the highway leading west. from Veren- drye, although a possible objection to | the site is the effect of the action | of ice on the piers and columns of | the railway trestle just above the dam i d the cost of rip-rap on both anks of the railway fill. Another site, just above the rail- way trestle, would necessitate the construction of an outlet tunnel through the railway fill. The third would be to build the dam as an integral part of the rail- way fill, utilizing the present rail- road fill for the lower toe of the dam. Specifications for the dam would call structure contain- ing approximately 80,000 cubic yards with a spillway 150 feet long. If the proposed flood prevention dam above Minot were constructed prior to the construction of the irrigation reten- tion dam, it would be possible to re- duce the spillway to a length of 70 feet. Specifications have been made only for a dam in the first location mentioned, the report said. If con- structed at that point its top would be available for, use as a road. 5 Development Plan The plan of development as out- lined in the report, provides for the gradual construction of irrigation ditches to provide water for units of approximately 5,000 acres each. The first unit, the report estimates, could be developed with an expenditure of $250,000. This figure includes the cost of the diversion dam and the di- version canal between the Mouse riv- er and Buffalo Lodge lake. of coughs ving between a point four miles North of Verendrye and Buf- falo Lodge lake would be utilized in constructing the diversion ditch, which would be ten feet wide, eight feet deep and would carry 234 cubic feet per second. By constructing @ long low dike along one side of the lake it would be possible to raise its water level 12 feet above the present stage. The lake thus could be used for storage purposes. The storage capacity of the lake is estimated at 50,000 acre feet. In addition to the site to be irri- gated by the Verendrye dam, un ad- ditional and supplementary’ project would call for the construction of a dam on Cut Bank creek northeast of Upham. This would utilize return waters from the Verendrye project and could be developed to provide wa- ter for irrigating 10,000 additional acres, The Annual Volume About 75 per cent of the land in the district which it is proposed to irrigate has been abandoned, the re- port says, because of dry seasons coupled with a gradual decline in the ground water level which is general Shroughout the Mouse river loop dis- rict.

A re the Capitol Theatre Adults 50c Love That Conquered A Powerful Gripping True Story IFTEEN minutes after Jessie had told her landlady that she could not pay her room rent because she had lost her job she was on the sidewalk. Without money, without friends, her scant belongings held by an irate landlady what could she do? She was desperate! All night she wandered from street to street finally to fall fainting upon a bench in the park. That is where Jules Stockton found her. And when Jessie“ slowly returned to consciousness she found herself held in strong arms being borne away—she knew not where. Born of good family, Stockton had run away from home while still a boy. At first a hobo, he later enlisted in the army and was sent to the Philippines. When he returned he was thoroughly hard—had no fear of jod or man—and no respect or Teverence for women Had Jessie known the kind of man he was she would rather have been left to diethan go with him. But because she was des- \perate for food and warmth, she went. 4 Thus was the stage set for one of the most dramatic battles between good. and evil that was ever fought —stead- fast woman opposed to predatory man.
