Work Now in Progress

Nevada will soon have one of the
largest and most comprehensive irri,
cation systems in the world where.
with to make its desert lands blossom
as the rose. Mr.. L. II. Taylor. dis
trict engineer for the United States
Reclamation Service for Nevada, has
recently been in Washington and
reports the satisfactory progress of the
Truekee-Carson reclamation project,
OF which he has immediate charge.
This project contemplates the utiliz-
alton of the waters of the Truckee
and Carson rivers for the irrigation of
about 3I5,0o0 acres of sage brush des-
ert in western Nevada These lands
Will furnish homesteads OF about so
acres each for about $500 families. Ii
is expected that with the addition of
the towns and villages that will natu.
rally spring up in the district. the
population OF the state will be in
creased in the next few years by at
least 10000 people.
Active construction is now in prog
gress on a main canal about thirty-one
miles long. which is to divert the wat
ers Of Truckee river to large storage
reservoir on the lower Carson river.
There the waters of the two streams
will be mingled and lmpounded. and
thence led out upon the plains in the
vicinity of the Carson and Humboldt
Sink. Two contracts for the construc-
tion Of different divisions OF this canal
were made by the secretary of the In
terror with E. b. and A. l.. Stone Com
pany. and c. A. Warren & Co. Cali

lively. Ground was broken on Sep
tember II. 1903, and the work Is to be
finished by November OF the present
year. In the meantime, surveys for
the requisite system OF distributing
canals are well under way. and the
department Will be ready in the
spring TO contract for their construe-
ton This work will be followed by
the erection OF a dam which will form
the reservoir on the Carson river.
The reservoir will have a total length
of about eighteen miles and will flood
over 10000 acres of land to an average
depth OF twenty-eight feet.
The lands to be irrigated by these
works aggregate about 100000 acres.
situated in the lower portions oil the
Truckee, Carson and Humboldt river
basins. In the upper valley Of the
Truckee and Carson rivers some 10000
acres of additional land will be sup
piled from works TO be constructed
some time in the future. As these
great areas are gradually brought un-
der cultivation. and a greater water
supply is required. ten additional res
eryoirs, including Lake Tahoe. are TO
be added.
