Abstract
"Work was commenced Monday on the second reservation ditch, the intake of which will be at a point five miles west of the headgates of the main canal. It will be eight miles long, two and one-half feet deep, five feet on the bottom and will irrigate about 12,000 acres. These ditches, under the able management of Agent Erwin, will reclaim more land and at less cost per acre than any other irrigation work in the state."
