Oregon's First Annual Irrigation Congress Concludes
Oregon's first annual Irrigation Congress closes after two days of talks. Delegates from across the state form a permanent committee to secure federal aid and promote arid land reclamation. Resolutions urge rapid use of the National Irrigation Act and closer cross group cooperation among cattlemen, sheepmen, and settlers to foster farming, dairying, and population growth. The next meeting is set for Baker City in June with Pendleton hosting the following November.
