For the irrigation company It replaces speculation with security concerning water costs, and It assures It the enjoyment of vested rights. helps the farmer determine what becomes of the water he uses; whether or not much of it creeps away in the dark of the deep soil underlain by porous material ; it protects the owner of lowlying land from having his me.i'-uren.ent- fine-fellow- 1 m-it- land water legged oecause it prevents excessive iirigation by his neighbor higher up; and finally, of great Importance comparea to these and many other benefits of water measurement ; it is a factor of vital importance in the continued protection and enjoyment of the irrigators water right.

Sometimes, however, land rises in price due to an anticipated rise In the price of farm products.
