Abstract
Los Angeles is situated in a region where the annual rainfall is only 15 in., and where a water supply is requisite, not only for domestic necessities, but also for the beautification of grounds and for all forms of intensive agriculture. The Federal census shows that the population of the city increased from 102 479 in 1900 to 319 198 in 1910, or 211%, which is the greatest growth in any of the larger cities of the United States during this period.Keywords
