Perhaps equal in Importance is
the (act that irrigator! themselves
recognize the problems they are
creating and appear to be willing
to cooperate in eliminating those
problems.
Still another eaeaaragtag fac

shown In developing economical
means of uiag sub-surface wa

contend that mere water Is -
stored aadergroaad than la nO
the streams and reservoirs on
the surface and that this water
is ideally salted to irrigation la
most instances.
The main difficulty here is a
lack of information regarding the
occurrence of ground water. State
and federal agencies are cooperat- j
ing to obtain this information as j,
soon as possible in the belief it
will relieve some of the burden
now being placed on surface sup
plies. Irrigators stand to benefit
tremendously from this know
ledge.
