Nevada Lands and Irrigation Experiments
The Bulletin reports discussions between the General Land Office Commissioner and Surveyor General Pawning on surveys. Private capital tests irrigation methods in Nevada, storing water and artesian wells, challenging grazing as the state’s sole future industry. Observations from older countries and Nevada experiments warn against land policies that parcelize tracts for individual ownership, which could become valuable but cause agrarian discontent. The Gazette and the Bulletin favor a prosperous agricultural future, noting climate changes may yield safe crops and general prosperity with careful experiments and observation.
