Enthusiastic Meeting of Irrigation Association in Seattle
The Irrigation Association of Washington held its first post organization meeting in the Commercial Club rooms. Members discussed reserving Yakima river waters, proposed immediate reservoir actions, and a committee drafted a bill for legislature with full association endorsement. A resolution approved forest reserve watersheds and protective action. Committees were named to secure exhibits for the Trans-Mississippi Irrigation Congress and to amend the association constitution.
