Harper, soil expert of the Bureau of
Reclamation. Mr.. Harper will spend
some time with Mr.. Dunnewald in
getting the work started and in
adopting methods for the survey that
will be acceptable to the Bureau.
The work of making this soil sur
vey will take two or three months
and when completed the Bureau of
Reclamation will have all necessary
information.
The Saratoga project has been sur
veyed a couple times and has been
passed upon by the Reclamation De-
partment as entirely feasible from an
engineering standpoint. However,
before presenting the matter to Con-
gress the Department desired a soil
survey in order to determine whether
the project would be feasible from
ar economic standpoint.
The soil in the Platte Valley has
always been considered as exception
ally productive and those who are in
terested in the project have no fear
as to the result of the soil survey
1t is the plan of the Wyoming
delegation in Congress to present
the matter OF constructing the Sara
toga project to Congress early in the
session which starts in December.
Through the active efforts of our
two senators and our representative,
assisted by the people of Wyoming,
it is considered very probable that
the project will be passed favorably.
