Million Acres of Land to be Saved in Brazos Valley

Approximately 1,000,000 acres in the Brazos valley would be reclaimed if Congress adopts the Flood Control committee’s recommendation and funds a survey of the Brazos and Colorado river valleys. Captain Arthur A. Stiles says Colorado river valley could also reach 1,000,000 acres. the survey may cost at least $300,000. The plan aims to build levees and reduce flood losses, with hearings expected soon. Also notes a silver wedding anniversary for Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Nevelow and an ad for Crockett 2323 with travel offer via New Orleans and steamer.
