Montana Irrigation Bond Averts Tax Rise Says Johnson
James A Johnson president of the Toole county irrigation project says the $20,000,000 irrigation bond measure will not cost Montana taxpayers. The plan allows irrigation districts to issue bonds backed by state credit with a tax not exceeding 1 mill for district defaults. He notes 93,000,000 acres lie in Montana but only 6,000,000 can be irrigated at reasonable cost, leaving about 7,000,000 unlikely to ever be irrigated.
