WATER DISTRICT
|" ON NEW LINES

Progress is being made by the dis
ltrict that has been formed at Nilan6
to supply irrigation water to land owr
ers in the northern part of the valley
above the boundaries of the No. 3
company, but within the boundaries
of the present irrigation district.
The plans of the organization pro-
moters are somewhat different from
what had generally been supposed,
however, in that they are organizing
a separate irrigation district and not
"a mutual water company like the
others in the vxalley.
In this manner the lands will be-
come collateral for the bonds of the
company and there will be no water
stock issued. This will also bring
in Southern Pacific lands in view of
the fact that the individual holdings
outnumber the acreage of the rail
ways land company. The latter, how
ever, is expected to cooperate with
rhe district in the organization.
