We Are Surrounded With People Who Want Irrigatioii.
AVe all had sonip dotibls on hc subjeft avIu'H our puhliciU was .stapled last week. Uul the quick response of 19S land
owners with 8812 acres (to Tluuwlny noon) to the (iiet,tion "WHO AVANTrf NVATIflll?" has mndo us foel that irrigation in
tin- near future is practically aHsured. Don't get the idea that wo are finished! AVe have just begun hut we havo begun with
a rush! If you will take the time to come to our officii and see our M31) INK MAP OF WATISIt WANT1SRS you will bo sur
prised to find how many people have expressed themselves, VOLUNTA KM LY, as wanting water who have been supposed to bo
against irrigation, and how jnaiiy people, whom we know want filler, have not yet gotten around to expressing Ihomsolves.
We Can Finish Our Acreage Campaign In Ten Days
if our responses will continue as they have started. In fact, we have had so much success with practically no personal calls
on landowners that we are very much inclined to ivy our publicity a little further. .Evidently everybody has recognr.ed thai, it
would take a long iiiue to seo each individual landowner and many have tried to assist us by sending in their acreage. vPossibly
vou have put off sending or have been too busv to send in or telephone us how much Water you wanted. If vbu will fill tlio slin
printed on this page TODAY or see us TODAY all of the WATKI& WANTKWS will thank you.
There Is No Room for Skeptics! '
. Ml ' I I
AVe have heard one man say that he would take water when we got it, but hi was afraid wo wouldn't bo liblo to got it,- so ho
would "Wait and Sop." If you know any of the "WAIT AND SIM HK'KADl'" suggest to theiu that IhcJy lWffofl3 tVATlfitt
WANTlflHS.
Almost every man who has been in our offices has said:
uWe Want Water Right Away."
Those are our sentiments! And we will come close to getting it IMC! I IT A WAV, if every landowner will upr
? 101 IT A WAV. Jn f;ut that is all wc want right away. A aiiuita
If You Know of Any Non-Resident Land Owners
Send us their names and addresses. We are sending them word what we are doing and are getting their support.
