The Honorable,

Dear Mr. Secretary:
In response to your request I send herewith a memorandum
stating the condition of theNorthern Montana Irrigation project.
The work is being pushed as rapidly as is consistent with a com-
pliance with the irrigation law and sound engineering practice.
No one can be more desirous than are the officers of the
Survey, to S see the St. Mary--Milk River project inaugurated and
carried to a successful conclusion.
It is anticipated that the Board of Engineers will visit the
Milk River valley in the early spring, and if in their judgment the
estimates are correct, advertisements for bids will be made as soon
as you give the authority.
Respectfully yours,
thankwalert
Director.
