' The beginning of a modern irrigation system is a good water measurement structure. In the left foreground is the Riverhill-Aul- t Ditch Company Pp.rshall measuring flume. The water master accurately measures the allotted stream into the ditch through this flume. Irrigation Project Finished By Richard C. Harris Soil Conservation Service Tremonton, Utah Farming with an outmoded irrigation system is a profit-- ' eating d experience. Efficient, farm equipment, ninute production techniques and terrific competition pressures are common but many farms still irrigate through systems as out of style as the walking plow. Irrigation is one of the prime factors in Utah's Bear River Valley farming. In this bounteous land canning crops, grains, sugar beets and livestock-feedno flourish. But no irrigation production for these crops. Efficient, modern irrigation is the key and the irrigation sys s tem is a tool which must be and maintained kept for top production. Farmers served by the Riverhillup-dat- Ditch Company working with the Northern Utah Soil Conservation District and the Soil Conservation Service have demonstrated what can be done to solve problems and modernize an irrigation system. In the early days of the Bear -Ault River Valley, shortly after the turn of the century, two ditches were constructed from the Utah-IdahSugar Company canal to serve farms in the east Elwood district. The Riverhili ditch carried water to eighteen farms containing six hundred acres of choice valley land. The Ault o ditch served nine farms and acres. The two ditches were 400 parallel and a quarter mile apart. The Riverhili, the higher of the two, skirted the Bear River canyon for about three quarters of a mile. In places it was constructed within a few feet of the steep canyon slope. These two ditches served the community well for years but There not without problems. were continual seepage losses in the 5.7 miles of earth ditchlosses amounting to a es; whopping two to three cubic feet per second.
