San Francisco consulting engineer, who spent five vears on the Newlands project, as an official has written the following letter to Dr Church This morning's mail brought some pamphlets from you including It did and though we tried to get ready to flpht high water It was late May before our canals were again delivering a supply to the farmers The Carson also had a flood five times as great as

and her daughter Veia weie injuied and are now in and the feeble efforts I made toward snow surveys During that the bureau time I was out on the desert at Hlnes also said that if the bids Fa on wllcre

construction i using Its own building personnel Bids opened under the original advertisement were found to be at least 100 per cent above the appio- prlation set aside by the bureau for the Reno work Pittman explained AH the biddeis i Califoinia concerns, he pointed out and submitted prices in excess of $200000 This time the buie.vu is making a special effoit to a Nevada con- stiuction films

floods I managed to get to the Duby Dam i the night we had no autos in those clays and you remember the destruction I found that in those years Tahoe wa? generally so high as to make the problem of high water aiound the lake appear more Important, than low water Yet reading the records then rather fragmentary led us to think that so far as we users of water were concerned low water and scarcity would some day bt our trouble 'The years 1906 and 1907 gave us an idea of what might happen from high a and in 1908 we had our first expeilence with low water in Tahoe and cliy canals at Fallon I will
