Since that time steady progress has been made in the development of the irrigation system, until in 1922, over 13,000 acres were irrigated by this company in Utah and Salt Lake , counties. To supplement the high water from the Provo River, this company has recently constructed a pump-m- g plant at the Jordan Narrows.1 This plant has two units in operation one of 10 and one of 20 second-foo- t capacity. During the low water season wvater is pumped fiom the Jordan River into the steel sjphon and lifted to the canal on the west side, a vertical height of 270 feet.

On an exchanged plan, pumped water may also he used on the east side of the Jordan River. As the demand for pumped water increases, this plnt will be enlarged to meet the requirements. During 1922, the Provo Reservoir Co. has enlarged its storage reservoirs at the head of the Provo River to furnish water to help meet the increased demand for late water in both Utah and Salt Lake Counties. After the irrigation season i over in the fall, the reservoir gates are closed and allowed to fill daring the winter and early spring. In normal years the high water on the Provo River is over from the 1st to the loth of July. At this time the water stored in the reservoirs is released and furnishes their supply to the low water rights of the company. The offices of the Provo Reservoir Company are located in the Knight Block, Provo, Utah, and in the Vermont Bldg., Salt Lake City, Utah. The officers of the company are Mr. Joseph R. Murdock, president and manager, and iflr. R. J.; Murdock, secretary and treasurer. Th(; canal heads on the Provo River about a mile above the Utah Power & Light Companys plant at Olmsted. From this point the canal runs northward through Utah Valley, skirting the foot hills to the Jordan Narrows near the point of the mountain. Here the canal crosses the Jordan River in a h concrete and h riveted steel pipe.

A year ago surveys were run from the Provo Reservoir company's canal on the east side of Salt Lake Valley Jrom the point of the mountain to Big Cottonwood canyon. It was found practicable to furnish "water to a large acreage lying north and east of Draper. In the future when Salt Lake City finds it necessary to acquire all of the waiter from the canyons south of Com-paBig Cottonwood for culinary uses, the Reservoir s canal may be extended along the east side to lands now being irrigated by these canyon streams, thus releasing the canyon water for use in Salt Lake City. There are about 3,000 acres of land in Utah county lying above the Provo Reservoir canal which could be and through exchange, irrigated by mountain water, the lauds below the canal now using mountain water might be supplied directly from the canal instead of fluming the mountain wrater across the canal, which is done at the present time. 40c and 50c L i -- m Regular Dinners 3S6-- J From 11:30 a. m. to 7:30 p. m. ?

Utah Lake Irrigation Company The irrigation system of the Utah Lake Irrigation Company was commenced in the year 1911 and has been constantly developed until, at the present time, more than 11,000 acres are being irrigated through its canal system. The pumping plant of this company is located on the northwest shore of Utah Lake near Saratoga. The water is pumped from the lake through wooden stave the norpipes to two canals one canal 60 feet above mal lake surface and the other, 100 feet above the lake surface. The canals extend northward from a pumping Lake counj-tieplant site covering lands in Utah and60Salt lift canal feet The west of the Jordan River. 100 feet lift serves land in Utah County only, but the canal extends into Salt Lake County to Magna, cover-- , the companys canal and ing all lands lying between the Utah and Salt Lake Canal. s Sincerely, Whiteheads Grocery Mr. Joseph R. Murdock, the president and manager of the company, was the first to see the possibilities of pumping from Utah Lake for extensive irrigation. The continuous operation of the pumping plant of the Utah Lake Irrigation Company had demonstrated conclusively the feasibility of utilizing waters from Utah L&ke for irrigation purposes by pumping to - higher levels. This company is a pioneer in- - irrigation development that promises to extend to Mosida District, west lands in Salt Lake of Utah Lake, and onto Counties. and Tooele The officers of this company are in the Knight Block, Provo, Utah.
