WILSON, C.E., Assistant Professor of Irrigation. The purpose of this department is to give instruction in the methods and practices of irrigators in applying water to crops; the practical details of the construction, maintenance and operation of canals and reservoirs; and to furnish an opportunity for the study of the legal, social, and economic problems arising out of the development of irrigation in the arid west. Courses 1, 2, and 3 are designed to meet the needs of engineering and agricultural students who wish to make a specialty of irrigation work. They appear as part of the Course of Irrigation Engineering in the College of Civil Engineering. They are also elective in the other Engineering Colleges and in the College of Agriculture. Students of the Agricultural Department desiring to take these studies would do well to include Civil Engineering 1A, 1B, and 1c in their elective work for the first two years. 1.
