Excerpt from Underground Water of Luna County, New Mexico: With Results of Pumping Tests This paper is an abstract of part of an extended report on the geology and water resources of Luna County now in preparation by the Survey. It is issued to meet the urgent demand for information regarding wells and prospects for underground water in Luna County, especially as to the limits of the area in Which the water is available for irrigation. The facts were obtained by investigations made in 1910, With a supplemental canvass for data of new Wells in 1911, 1912, and the summer of 1913. During the last few years a large number of homesteaders have taken up lands in the broad, level bolsons of Luna County With the expectation of pumping underground water for irrigation. They have been encouraged by the excellent results obtained by a few earlier settlers, and many of them have sunk Wells and installed pumping plants and have already obtained satisfactory returns from irrigation.
