TWO EXPERI-
Executive Board of the
Central Oregon Devel­
opment League to Lo­
cate Them in Irrigated
and Dry Sections
A t the meeting o f the Central
Oregon Development League at
Prineville last week it was decid­
ed by the executive board o f the
League and the railroad officials
present to establish two experi­
ment farm stations in the central
part o f the state. One farm to
be located in the best place in
the irrigated district, and one in
the dry section.
It is the intention to have
these experimental stations su-
I>erintended by an expert from
the state experimental station.
The proposition is to raise a 110,-
000 fund to conduct the experi­
ment stations for two years, and
then have the state take them
over. The railroads have signi­
fied their willingness to contrib­
ute their share, and there is
hardly any question but what the
commercial associations in Port­
land and in the League will be
there with their part o f the mon­
ey.
As Redmond is situated in the
center o f the irrigated district o f
Central Oregon it has been sug­
gested that one o f the stations
be located near this city. This
suggestion is meeting with favor
among those who are posted as
to conditions in this irrigated dis­
trict.
Farmers and Ranchers
I f you desire to have a
creamery established in this
district, sign up on the lists
at Ehret Bros, and Lynch &
Roberts stores the number
o f cows you will furnish
cream from Sept. 1st. Three
hundred will have to Lie se­
cured before the creamery-
can be started.
There was no celebration at
Bend, that city having grace­
fully given up their plans for a
big event and joined with Prine­
ville in twisting the lion’s tail.
