ments of the land under them are much less than the duty shown 
would indicate. The apparent high duty under the Xorth Poudre 
Canal in 1916 was due to a short supply, the original allotment of 
125,000 cubic feet per share for that year being reduced to 100,000 
cubic feet in the latter part of the season. In the majority of cases, 
however, the duty fairly indicates the requirements of the land under 
the canal under the present system of cropping.

canals of the valley in 1916.
