NEW MEXICO. 



Incorporation papers have been filed with Terrtorial 

 Secretary Jaffa by the Aztec Irrigation Company of Colo- 

 rado, with offices at Aztec. The capitalization is $500,000. 



Work has started on the irrigation system which will 

 furnish water for Nolan, Mora county, and the surround- 

 ing country. A corps of surveyors are now at work on 

 Lake Charette, which will be the head of the system, lay- 

 ing the line for the graders. From the lake the water will 

 be carried through a tunnel 1,730 feet long into the Create. 

 From there it will be taken out further down the creek, 

 where a large canal will carry it to the farms. 



The south half of the tract of land owned by the 

 French Land and Irrigation Company, containing 25,000 

 acres, will be formed into an irrigation district and turned 

 over to the farmers. The farmers will incorporate under 

 the Territorial Irrigation Law. They will also build an- 

 other reservoir with a capacity of 12,000 acre feet. 



Actual work has been started on a hydro-electric 

 pumping-for-irrigation project at Alamogordo, with an 

 initial cost of $60,000, which it is believed will develop 

 into a big thing for that section and reclaim large tracts 

 of land at a small cost. 



Territorial Engineer Sullivan has approved the appli- 

 cation of the Red River Land and Water Company^, of 

 Red River, Taos county, for 629 second feet of the flow 

 of the Red River. This company will reclaim 45,000 acres 

 of land in Taos county at a cost of $500,OCO. 



OREGON. 



Senator Abner Weed of Siskiyou county, California, 

 is the owner of 20,000 acres of land in the northern part 

 of Klamath county on the Wood river, and he is now con- 

 structing a series of irrigation ditches, by means of which 

 he will reclaim many of the acres which he owns.

DRILLED WELLS FOR IRRIGATION 



Make Every Well a Flowing Well 



Plowing wells are not found in every locality, but they 

 can be made to flow to their full capacity. 



Every farm and every ranch should and can have their 

 own water supply; a good well adds thousands of dollars to 

 the value of a property. 



The first item of expense is the only expense; a good 

 well is inexhaustible and lasts for all time.
