Water For | Irrigation | The water supply is far in excess Br of any possible need. The reservoir is a natural wonder, holding as it JE does 60,000 acre-feet of water. This Es( is also augmented by the normal flow BR of Pine River, which in itself would be more than sufficient All construe- JR tion work will be under the direct BP <■2' fli supervision of the State Board of K Land Commissioners and State finglneer. This includes all ditches and flB laterals. The construction company Q has also put up a heavy bond with the state for the fulfillment of all wa- IC ter contracts with the settler. Thus K] you are assured absolute safety under BE direct national supervision on your water-rights. Bn • Each settler under the company’s eS contract with the state is allowed EB one second-foot to each eighty acres. |M This is equivalent to a depth of nine BE inches of water each month over the entire farm. Not half of this quantity is ever required, even for crops KS which demand liberal watering.
