To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The available water in this area is being more and more utilized for irrigation with the construction of spreader dike systems and water storage reservoirs for livestock pur- poses. The spreader dike systems are known as conservation measures to prevent soil erosion, and so constructed as to provide for the retention and distribution of water on many acres of grazing land. This type of irrigation is becoming more prominent in many parts of south- eastern Montana. There are only two major draina...ge areas in Powder River County, the Tongue and Powder rivers. The Powder River is the larger of the two and, including its tributaries, furnishes water for the irrigation of 27,153 acres in the County. The most common type of irrigation practiced along the main stem of the Powder River is by the use of pumps, which lifts the water from the river for sprinkler irrigation or spills it into dike systems. Little Powder River and Mizpah Creek are two of the major streams that are tributaries to the Powder River.
