<br />52 <br /> <br />1 year by snowpp.ck. development of only three to six inches of <br /> <br />2 snow over the entire area, the figure that the farm crops <br /> <br />3 produced alone, not cattle and allied fields, would produce <br /> <br />( $772,694,000. <br /> <br />5 Simple division and multiplication would show <br /> <br />6 that 60,000 acre feet of water for the people of the San Luis <br /> <br />7 Valley would put to use could mean an additional $5,000,000 <br /> <br />& in crop value. <br /> <br />9 This is why most of us who have to deal with the <br /> <br />10 basic facts of the water are totally convinced that we must <br /> <br />11 continue the development" knowledge, and methods of winter- <br /> <br />12 time snowpack': weather modification if we are to sustain and <br /> <br />13 increase the lifestyle that would be available to the people <br /> <br />1( of the San Luis Valley. <br /> <br />15 We agreed to last year, and operated the physical <br /> <br /> <br />J6 plan of weather modification, with what we feel was at this <br /> <br /> <br />17 point in time an ideal relationship between the people for <br /> <br /> <br />]& and the people against weather modification.
