Arid land bonds and smallholders in Montana
Senator Tierneys bill to authorize the arid land commission to issue bonds for water systems to irrigate lands of the state and others is favorably reported. The letter urges action on custody of 5 000 000 acres in public domain while congress considers granting each arid state a share, warning that two years away will allow land grabbers to syndicate acres. It argues large holdings hurt farmers and calls for fencing limits to help small landholders and home builders access water and profit.
