WASTE WATER.
Advice Concerning Use of Money
Now Spent on Water Saits.

Nearly every stream in the State is
running bank full on account Of the
melting Of the snow. At the present
time the water is moi used by the
farmers and goes to fill the lakes and
sinks Of the State. When the time
comes that water is badly needed. the
streams will be low and a general
clamOr will be made for 1t. Law suits
follow every year and some one is
hurt. II the farmers would put up the
money building storage reservoirs that
they spend in having, all this valuable
water could De stored and twice the
acreage that is now under cultivation
could be titled. 1t must make the big
ranchers on the river sick when they
look at the water that is going past
them and know that in the next few
weeks they will want it to save part of
their crops. When the farmers form
irrigation colonies Of their own and
hold the spring floods they will solve
the problem. A good stream of water
in Nevada is as valuable as a gold
mine. One look at any river in Ne
vada at the present time will convince
the people that there is plenty of water
if only properly controlled.-Appeal.
