Show Jones- C 380 20 Q When you say " in there", what do you mean? A Well, it is a long ways further west from the Colorado river, between this good country and the Colorado never will be farmed, I don't think; San Juan county is a large county, one- ninth part of the state of Utah. Q What part of it is susceptible of development to grain? A Near the Colorado line, all along there for twenty or twenty- five miles wide. SPECIAL MASTER: I just wanted to get what he meant by development. BY MR. BLACKMAR: Q That is all east of Bluff? A North and east. BY MR. FARNSWORTH: Q Now, there are large sections of excellent grazing land there, aren't there? A Yes sir. Q Right up to the Colorado river? A Well, gets pretty rough. One of the witnesses here can tell you more than I can about that; he has run cattle in there near the river. Q Of course there are sections that are not so good, but there are other sections that are good that come right up to the Colorado river, isn't that, true, up and very close to it? A Just taking a guess at it, I wouldn't think it was much good for anything. 2347 |
