MISCELLANEOUS 



A recent fire destroyed the Orange 

 County irrigation pumping plant 

 situated on the Newton county line 

 eight miles from Orange, Texas. This 

 plant, which was a valuable one, was 

 used to supply water to about 10,000 

 acres of rice lands. The ground is 

 now being cleared with the view of in- 

 stalling a new plant at the earliest 

 moment possible. 



The State Engineer of South Da- 

 kota, has made final arrangements 

 with the engineers of the United 

 States Reclamation Service at Den- 

 ver, for the completion of the survey 

 of the Angostura project in Fall 

 River and Custer counties. The first 

 part of the investigation will begin at 

 the dam site, as the dam will be ap- 

 proximately one-third the cost of the 

 entire project, and much depends 

 upon its feasibility.
