Abstract
"Engineer Guy Sterling and party returned from the survey of the Cowychee & Wide Hollow Irrigation ditch line Wednesday and pronounces it feasible in every way. He estimates that water can be taken from the Nile and cover 60,000 acres of arid land, suitable for agricultural purposes, for $250,000. As this is only $4 per acre, the scheme is one that certainly should be carried out."
