ARTESIAN WATER
Why Don't Land Owners
Sink Wells for ItP

With an area of many thousand acres
level enough for irrigation, with sur
face sheet of water six to ten feet below
the surface, with the growth of fruits
und forage on the lands under irriga-
tion, the expectation of So many OF the
citizens here, and those owning lands,
that with the application of water this
valley will become one Of the very
lovelicst in all the West, is not to be
wondered at
The lands have been proven by soil
analysis and field tests to he very fer
tile And in the time necessary to grow
the trees, from the time of applying the
water, this mountain vale will be
crossed in every direction by tree-lined
roads and drives, and boulevards OF
great length and beauty; and residences
homes of Il happy and contcntcd people,
will dot this level space for many miles.
The elevation ut the mouth OF the
Vegas wash, twenty-five miles east, Is
1000 feet: the elevation here 1000 feet.
At the mouth of the Vegas wash the
Colorado river turns abruptly to the
south from course almost west.
From the mouth of the Vegas wash
one can travel to Reno without crossing
Il mountain range, up what war once
one of the largest rivers of the west,
now sunken. These waters are some
where under the surface. The depth
cannot reasonably be more than the
difference between the elevation ut the
mouth of the wash and the elevation
here, which, allowing for reasonable
fall, leaves the conclusion that watel
bearing stratum will be encountered a
from 600 to 500 feet in depth.
The springs watering the railroad
lands arise on the mesa, and are not in
appropriately called natural artesiai
wells.
| The qualification OF the country wher'
exposed indicates the presence OF !
basin. The large area drained assure
an abundance of water.
And why those owning lands, an'
who will profit largely by the develop
ment of water. do not hasten the sink
ing OF artesian wells, Is hard to un
derstand. 80 mueh depends OH tn
watering of the lands. The opening q
large mines in this vicinity is conf
IDENTIFY expected, but mines cannot adj
to the beauty and wealth of the com
munity as the flowing of water owe
