Irrigation Scheme Aims to Abandon Lands for Nevada Settlers
A proposal to abandon Walker River and Pyramid Lake reservations in Nevada seeks 1250000 for a canal draining Tracke River water to irrigate 14500 acres for settlers at 10 per acre while irrigating 17500 acres for Indian use. About 600 Indians would gain new lands and a fence would separate stock. 2500000 is allotted with repayment from land sales to fund housing and growth in Wadsworth and valley towns.
