Demand on Harriman to Stop Colorado River Flow
The Citizen reports pressure on BH Harriman to halt the Colorado River flow into the Salton Sink. California's California Development Co seeks federal approval to divert water for irrigation in southern California but was refused due to insufficient engineering study. Harriman obtained Mexican permission to take water from land near the border, causing the river to flood the Salton basin and threaten Imperial Valley and Southern Pacific land. Debates arise over who should fund remedies, with mentions of Roosevelt’s stance and legal actions against trusts.

The Farming Interests Predominate Across Nation
The year just passed brought unparalleled prosperity for farmers, with farm product values totaling about 6.794 billion dollars. Exports of farm goods reached 967 million, packing-house exports over 200 million, and the trade balance favorable to American agriculture. The Agriculture Department notes progress in irrigation, land development, and new crops, aided by lower costs and better transportation, while farm labor and rural economies rise.
