Major Powell on irrigation potential of Rin Granda waters
In October 1554 discussion centers on the Rin Granda valley irrigation plan. Major Powell explains water depth and acre-foot values, estimating 500 feet by 50 feet reservoir sizes could reclaim hundreds of acres. Costs run to about £65,000, with per acre values from $30 to $200. Public debate questions practical governance and land use.

An extended discussion argues that arid lands can be reclaimed by strategic water storage in mountains to reduce evaporation. Major Powell notes surveys across New Mexico and surrounding states await congressional funding. The piece also covers new free tourist car service on the Rock Island and similar promotions by the Danvers and Santa Fe lines, aiming to boost western travel.
