Mud Lake Gets "Cleared Up"

County officers got a notice from the government not long ago, asking them to change the name of Mud Lake. Seems it’s a pond, not a lake, by government standards. Because it lies entirely inside our town limits, we asked to do the name-changing ourselves. Figured we’d think up a brand-new name. Mud Lake’s really not very muddy —sort of pretty, in fact. County people said go ahead, so we held a Town Meeting. Everyone suggested something. Windy Taylor thought “Taylor Pond” would be nice, because his place borders

it—for about 30 feetl But we finally decided to call it “Turtle Pond” in honor of the real owners. From where I sit, naming that pond wasn’t the most important thing in the world—but the way wa did it was. Everyone offered his opinion and then the majority vote decided it. That’s the way it should be—whether it concerns naming a pond, or having the right to enjoy a friendly glass of beer or ale—if and when we choose. MX

Flipping switches is The Great American Habit. Even children have it. And it’s a habit that has given America the world's highest standard of living. In the home, electricity is just about the smallest item in the family budget, but what else makes life so easy, so healthy, so comfortable? ’ In industry, electricity lends the employee the strength of giants. Electric motors multiply his muscular strength by dozens or even by thousands—making it possible for him to produce more, better, faster—to earn more. Electricity is certainly a vital part of our American life yet, oddly, this country spends only 2% of its vast income for electric service. Such a bargain in efficiency didn’t happen by accident, of course. Business-managed electric light and power companies pioneered the electric industry — progressed and expanded because of investors with faith and vision, employees with skill and experience. There are still broad fields of electric living yet to be tapped. Business men can do the fob better than bureaucrats. That’s always been the secret of America’s progress.

BOARD O FPUBLIC WORKS By Mary Frances Leonard, Clerk (PD) - May 12-19.

The water story of the West is simply told: There isn’t enough water, never has been, never will be. Competition for available stores is reaching the frenzied stage. Not only are old irrigated lands threatened; pressure to bring new -lands under the plow is at record pitch. Water for irrigation is largely a western affair because rainfall in the 17 western states averages less than a sparse 15 inches a year. In the hot, sprawling Colorado river basin the sun soaks up 90 per i cent of this total. The streams get most of their flow from the melting snows of the Rockies, the Sierras and other ranges. * * * By diverting this flow and tapping underground resources built up over a long span, men have made the parched desert acres bloom. Dams, canals and smaller irrigation works have been constructed at a cost of billions. Today some 22,000,000 acres are irrigated in those 17 states. They include California’s famed Imperial and Central valleys, Central Arizona, the Utah valley, the Rio Grande valley in New Mexico, the High Plains of West Texas. Some of the world’s most valued crops come from these lands. The Bureau of Reclamation, spearhead of this spectacular effort, plans to add another 5,650,000 acres to the production rolls in the next decade. And 10,350,000 more are good enough to reclaim. This present fiscal year the Bureau is spending $359,000,000 in the 17 states—five times the outlay in 1940. Water projects in view mean expenditure of many additional billions. Government men estimate that irigation today takes about half of all the water consumed in America. With 17 billion gallons daily drawn from underground sources and about 60 billion from surface supplies, irrigated farm ing is the nation’s biggest user, well ahead of industries and cities. These heavy withdrawals h&ve outrun the projects for harnessing new sources. Crisis is at hand or just around the corner for the West’s finest lands. An example is California’s Central valley. Most of the irrigable acreage is in the southern half, the San Joaquin valley. But unfortunately most of the water is in the northern valley of the Sacramento river. * * * In the southern irrigation zone 40,000 wells suck up water from underground reserves. Here in cotton, beans, grapes, peaches and many other crops grow in lush profusion. But as they grow the water table sinks. It’s one of the worst areas of over-develop-ment in the country. Thousands of acres have been

abandoned as wells went dry or ; all, will some day irrigate mil

pumping costs went too high. The experts predict the same fate for from 400,000 to 800,000 more if new water isn’t brought to the

rescue.

Luckily a rescue program is already well advanced. The Central Valley Project, by a daring system of water transfers, will provide billions of extra gallons to replenish the thirsty acres at the valley’s southern end. The chief features of the .plan are now built and the first waters are flowing southward. The feats of river surgery are astounding. The Friant dam, fourth largest in the U. S. blocks off the San Joaquin whose waters are then pumped 160 miles south via canal to the shortage area. To replace the dammed off San Joaquin waters farther downstream, water is carried from the Sacramento across a delta channel, upriver through a 110-mile canal and dumped into the San Joaquin. There’s much more to the overall project: Eventually there’ll be 48 dams and 20 large canals. The goal is to save 2,000,000 acres now producing, and bring another 3,000,000 into use.

Central Arizona is region crying for water, reserves, which supply

cent of the state’s needs as against 50 per cent in California, are beinng drawn out twice as fast as water is restored. Every year more land is being irrigated. Damaging salt content is building up in the soils as water levels fall. Once- useful acres are now idle by the thousands. Without more water, a third of some 725000 menaced acres may go out of

production.

To stave off this disaster, Arizona wants a $750,000,000 federal project to lift Colorado river water 935 feet from its bed and haul it overland to the dry zones. But California and Arizona have scrapped for 27 years over rights to that water and the issue is still unsettled. It is hard to see what other hope Arizona has. The most extreme over-de-velopment is on Texas’ High Plains region south of Amarillo. Here in 1934 some 300 w.ells irrigated 16,000 acres; now more than 10,000 wells supply , 1,000,000 acres. To offset this great withdrawal there is virtually no replacement water. Danger signals will fly high until some surface water plan is worked out to achieve a sound balance. * * * '■ In the great Columbia basin of the Pacific Northwest, 40 percent of irrigated lands suffer water shortages. Plans call for building up supplies for these and developing ,840,000 new acres. More than 100 dams projected for the Missouri basin, biggest of

lions of additional acres in the mountain and plains states. One project, the Colorado-Big Thompson, actually steals water from the westward-flowing Colorado and carries it 13 miles through the Rockies’ backbone for the irrigation of 615,000 Missouri basin

acres.

Government experts want none of these grand plans, however, to obscure the less dramatic things that can be done to cope with the West’s shortages: The lining of canals to prevent wasteful seepage, the' use of underground pipe, to beat evaporation, the use of sprinkler irrigation on rolling .i ,n »•># CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SERVICES “Mortals and Immortals” is the subject of the Lesson-Sermon in all Churches of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, May 14. The Golden Text is: “They that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit” - (Romans 8:5). Among the citations which comprise the Lesson-Sermon is the following from the Bible: “And the Lord said. My Spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh” (Genesis 6:3). “For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: But the word of the Lord endureth for ever” (I Peter 1:24, 25). The Lesson-Sermon also includes the following passages from the Christian Science textbook, “Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures” by Mary Baker Eddy: “Mortals are egotists. They believe themselves to be independent workers, personal authors, and even privileged originators of something which Deity would not or could not create. The creations of mortal mind are material” (p. 263).' “Human birth, growth, maturity, and decay are as the grass springing from the soil with beautiful green blades, afterwards to wither and return to its native nothingness. This mortal seeming is temporal; it never merges into immortal being, but finally disappears, and immortal man, spiritual and eternal, is found to be the real man” (p. 190).
