Russell Lee's September 1939 photograph of a check gate on a canal near Ordway, in the Arkansas Valley, made for the Farm Security Administration at the end of the Dust Bowl decade.
Shows: A working Arkansas Valley canal and its gate hardware in 1939, water in it.
What this does not let you conclude: Which canal this is -- the catalogue says only 'near Ordway' -- so it is placed on the division, not on a structure.
