The joyful news was received al
the Office of the Reclamation service
Monday from Washington that bid.
will be opened in Malta, on Oct. Ia
1919, for the construction of some "a
miles of the Dodson South canal, O.
the Milk River project; also tina,
bids would be opened in Malta, Sept
25th, for the construction of laterals
waste water bitches and structures or
the first unit of the Dodson South
Canal.
The Enterprise appreciating the
Importance of this news, issued an
extra SO that the information might
be given to the public without de-
lay. Naturally there was great re-
joicing, because the construction o1
this section of the project has a sig
ni6cant meaning for Malta and tribu-
tary country.
Project Engineer George O. San
ford received the information direct
from the DEPARTING mt of the Interior
together with copies of the official
published call for bids as issued by
the Department of the Interior.
Mnch depends upon the methods
employed in construction work by
the successful bidders as to the time
when dirt will begin to fly on the
big ditch. Where excating is to be
done with teams work can be started
at ence, and according to the engi-
neers, if we should have a winter
like that Of 1910 some operations
can be carried on all winter. At
any rate under normal conditions
the contractors will have much
open weather ahead of them this fall
On those sections Of the work where
excavating will be done by machin-
cry, longer time will be required. as
machinery will have to be ordered
according to the amount of the con-
tract.
The specifications upon which the
contracts will be based contemplate
that work shall be in full
swing at the earliest po ssible mom-
ent. When work is started there
will be lively time along Milk River
in this vicinity for two years to
come.
1t readily can be appreciated that
large army of men will necessarily
be emhloyed, as the digging of the
Dodson canal will involve the exca-
vation OF approximately 1889, 900
cubic yards of earth, while the lat
eral and waste water bitches call for
the removal of $4,000 cubic yards of
dirt. In addition to this there will

Organized for the purpose OF develop
ing the agricultural resources of Humboldt
Valley by conservation and use of the
waste and unused waters.
Ten years ago, the U. S. Geological
Survey said there was sufficient water in
the valley to irrigate 10000 acres of land.
Today, the Commissioner of Industry,
Agriculture and Irrigation says there are
only $4,000 acres of land under irr-
CATION in the valley.
The profits that will return from recla-
nation of even part of that extra land
for which there is water will be very large.
This is the largest and most important
irrigation project in Nevada, and about the
only large one left in the United States not
exploited.
The returns to stockholders will be very
large, and land owners and present water
users who take stock will receive benefits
not granted under any other project.
1t is expected that every person inter-
eSted in the future prosperity of Humboldt
Valley, or who wants a good investment,
will take stock in this company.
