Lyman Curtis also was chosen to develop water irrigation canals into [[Moapa, Nevada]], [[St. George, Utah]], [[Price, Utah]], and Salem, bringing water out of the Spanish Fork Canyon. He built a lumber facility in Salem, and the front door of the lumber business is currently on the cabin in Salem dedicated to the Daughters of Utah Pioneers.
