The chief town of the project is Fallen, to which a branch line of ten miles has been constructed.

29 GOVERNMENT IRRIGATION SOUTH ERN PACIFIC it u fN i * - * V cf The irrigable area of the first unit is 200, 000 acres, of which about half is under the canal and 50, 000 acres are open to
... settlement.
The elevation is 3, 950 feet above sea level or 200 feet lower than Salt Lake City. The mountains, visible on three sides, are barren, but on the west sixty miles away are the forested and snowy heights of the Sierra Nevada.
The locality chosen has long passed for desert, but it is in reality the bed of a pre- historic lake, and its soil is formed of river and lake deposits. The selection of an irrigation project is based first of all upon the soil, its quality and area. A scientific and chemical examination of the land is made at many points, and only lands of the best quality are made to bear the expense of water development.
