Extensible Irrigation Flumes 



- AND WATER TROUGHS 



The illustration presented herewith shows a double line, No. 168 Maginnis Galvanized Steel Irrigation Flume, fur- 

 nished the well known firm of Trowbridge & Niver Company, Chicago, Illinois, for use on a canal at Emmett, Idaho. 

 This flume carries about 300 cubic feet per second, and is erected around a bluff, alongside of the Payette River. 

 The water flowing through the flume irrigates about 30,000 acres of very high grade fruit land in the Upper Payette 

 Valley, around Emmett, Idaho. 



These flumes are manufactured of galvanized steel and are generally recognized as the most durable and service- 

 able method of conveying water over depressions, streams and around side hills where ditches would require extra- 

 ordinary care and high cost in construction. The Maginnis flumes are used very largely by all of the large irriga- 

 tion projects as well as many of the smaller ones, ani have given universal satisfaction.
