HEDGE CANAL. The Hedge canal diverts water from the Bitter Root River about 35 miles above the Republican canal. The original ditch of this name was built l)y Mr. Hedge for the purpose of diverting water from Skalkaho Creek, but Mr. Daly, after purchasing the rights of Mr. Hedge, extended the canal up the valley bj- means of flumes to tap the Bitter Root. There are about 5 miles of flumes on this canal, and two ravines are crossed by means, of redwood-stave pipe laid in the form of an inverted siphon. This canal is 24 miles long, has a capacity of over 200 acre-feet ])er day, and waters over .5,000 acres. The areas irrigated in 1901, 1902, and 1903 were 5,260 acres, 5,420 acres, and 5,420 acres, Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original United States.
