SALT RIVER PROJECT. 



The progress report of the supervising engineer of the 

 Salt river project states that the contractors are making 

 rapid progress on the great Roosevelt dam. The elevation 

 of the highest point of the dam is 211 feet. As soon as the 

 water ceases to flow on the dam the work of closing the 

 gap between the ends will be begun. The work of sinking 

 wells on the Gila reservation is being carried on and similar 

 work is progressing in the Mesa district with satisfactory 

 results. 



Andrew Weiss, project engineer, lias filed a petition with 

 the state engineer of Nebraska, together with an application 

 for an extension of time, in which to complete the work on 

 the North Platte irrigation project of the government. Five 

 more years will be required to complete it, and it may be 

 ten years before all the available water can be turned over to 

 the farmers. The application has been granted with two pro- 

 visions : First, that water be placed on the land as fast as 

 possible ; second, that settlers who are now irrigating their 

 land from adjacent streams shall retain their rights.
