Call State Mental Hospital: A-- ir Fourteen thousand acres lying west of Salt Lake City could be brought into cultivation through the building of the Taylorsville and Terminal canals which run parallel to the vicinity of Magna. This land, in addition to irrigation, also requires thorough drainage, as the water table is high and some of the land swampy. Development of this unit would help in solving Salt Lake Citys mosquito nuisance, as it would drain existing swampy areas and eventually bring them, in part, under cultivation. The Tooele unit, which is probably the unit to be left in doubt until the question of water rights, has been fully adjusted, involves more difficult and costly engineering features than any of the other portions of the Utah lake project. This Unit, of 24,000 acres, is dependent not only on the enlargement of the Jordan river channel, but enlargement of the Utah and Salt Lake canal for its entire length, and then the extension of that canal to a point near Grants-villThe plants of the Utah Copper company are in the path of this construction, and one feature of the building of this unit would be the tunnel drilling . of a 2000-foa part of beneath rock solid through this ' plant to carry the water westAnother 1900-fotunnel ward. through Magna hills would be necessary, and a great part of the wa,y the canal would haye to be lined with concrete, all of which construction, while entirely feasible, is costly, and would not be undertaken as long as there was doubt as to the sufficiency of water for reclaiming the the lands after the canal and tunnel should be finished.
