Seven Persene Farmers Water-users to discuss dam plan
Seven Persons farmers from across the drought stricken area plan a Tuesday night meeting at the State school Bull’s Head to urge federal and provincial aid for a dam on Seven Persons creek. The dam would create a 1770 acre reservoir to serve about 3000 acres of stock watering and irrigation needs. Crt Campbell, secretary of the Seven Persons Water-user’s association, says the scheme could operate like a school district and create winter employment, despite a shortage of horse feed in the territory.
