Excerpt from Irrigation Statistics of the Territory of Utah, With Matters Relative Thereto: Compiled and Prepared for the Irrigation Congress, to Be Held at Salt Lake City, Utah, September 15, 16, 17, 1891As now ascertained the average first cost of water right in Utah, per acre, is noticeably great, being largely due to the manner in which the ditches and canals are made. Nearly all are laid out and constructed by farmers of ordinary education, without the use of surveying instruments. As a consequence, few of the more important works laid out in this manner have proved serviceable without great changes, involving in many instances the reconstruction of almost the entire system. The perseverance shown in many of these cases is remarkable.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
