State Board Finds Water in Desert
Highway Commission Gets Flow of Water in Sand Hills
The desert is not always as dry as it seems; that is, underneath. This has been proved by the California highway commission, which has just completed the drilling of a well in Open Valley a small depression in the famous Imperial county sand hills, which are crossed by the interstate highway connecting California and Arizona by the Yuma route.
Water was struck at 92 feet and the drilling continued to hard pan, which was struck at a depth of 153 feet. A pump was installed and a test made. For six days of continuous pumping, the flow averaged approximately 500 gallons per minute and created a seismation throughout the district. Tourists crossing into California stopped to marvel at the six-inch stream of water rushing forth from the desert sands, when all about the country is as bleak and barren as the Sahara.
The highway commission is planning to construct a pavement across the sand hills to take the place of the present plank road, which is badly in need of replacement, and this is the answer to questions about the well. The pavement may take the form of precast concrete slabs, mixed and cured at some central point and hauled to their proper place along the route, where they will be fitted together into a wide, smooth roadway. Looking forward to probable shifting of the dunes, the commission's engineers hope to work out a pavement that possibly may be moved from one location to another, should the necessity arise.
The imperative need for an adequate water supply in connection with the mixing of the concrete was the reason the commission begin prospecting for water. It was realized that the water hazard was great, and that contractors would take this into consideration in bidding. If the new well can furnish a sufficient supply, and there is every indication it can, this hazard will be removed and it is probable thousands of dollars will be saved in paving.
Interesting Data on Rainfall Figures
The biggest rainfall for 1924-25 for any point in the state where a record was kept was at Crescent City, Del Norte county, which reports a total of 100.34 inches, or about 8 and a half feet. The highest total for any point in Southern California was at Squirrel Inn in the San Bernardino mountains which reported 34.81 inches. Brawley reported 32 of an inch; and that is the smallest total. These figures are supplied by the weather bureau and are official.
The following figures are given from points in various parts of the state and will give a good indication of the distribution of the rainfall:
