Wyoming's irrigation drive and Roosevelts appeal
Wyoming hinges on irrigation expansion with 44 000 acres now in use and 59 000 to 75 000 more projected through state projects. Three hundred fifty miles of canals are built or under way, boosting potential water use to 20 000 cubic feet per second. Wheatland showcases Carey Act success, with a deep reservoir and thriving growth. President Roosevelt wins wide support across parties for national irrigation, strengthening his hold in mountain states and shaping 190,000 acre prospective population growth.
