After the amended plats have been filed, the entrymen 

 affected will be allowed to amend their applications to 

 conform to the irrigable areas shown on the plats, and all 

 payments made will be credited to the gravity areas. 



Payment of the charges for the high-land areas shall 

 not begin until means shall have been provided for the 

 reclamation thereof, whereupon public notice will be given 

 announcing the charges, number of installments, and the 

 time when payments shall commence. The charges to be 

 announced for such lands shall include an equitable ap- 

 portionment of the costs on account of the construction, 

 maintenance and operation of any pumping system or 

 other expenditures incurred by the United States for the 

 reclamation of such high lands. 



On February 15 the resignation of Mr. A. E. Chandler 

 as engineer in the Reclamation Service took effect, and 

 he thus severed his connection with the work upon which 

 he has been engaged for seven years. In this time Mr. 

 Chandler has performed valuable services and has contrib- 

 uted a great deal to the formation of the legal policy of 

 the operations of the Service. His valuable co-operation 

 will be greatly missed in the future. 



Mr. Chandler has accepted a position as instructor on 

 the subject of irrigation institutions in the University of 

 California. 



The Engineering News in a recent issue reprinted an 

 article on "Depreciation," published in the "Reclamation 

 Record" for May, 1909, together with comments on ac- 

 counting methods in use by various branches of the gov- 

 ernment service in the matter of depreciation. The state- 

 ment is made by the News that: "The Reclamation Serv- 

 ice has elaborated a system of cost-keeping rarely, if ever, 

 equalled on public works, and as a part of that system 

 careful account of depreciation is being taken."
