Rl S PURCHASE OF A DITCH WILL BENEFIT YOLO Irrigation Problem in the Colmty Solved by Sale of Moore Property. WOODLAND, Jan. sioner appointed by the court to-day sold the Moore Ditch property. Joseph Craig and associates, capitalists, were the pur- chasers. The suit in which the judgment was | obtajned was a friendly one, brought in order to perfect the title by a judicial decree, After many years of \'pensiv«" litigation,” during which many farmers of Yolo, who were anxious for an irriga- | tion system, were compelled to wafch the | abundant supply of water run to waste without being able to utilize it, sale is considered the solution of the fr- rigation problem, as all water rights are now practically under one control. It is confldently expected that the develop- ment of Yolo County will now be given a fresh impetus, and that a steady in- crease in wealth and population will re- sult. ‘Wants Title Confirmed. M.
