AMERICAN PRESS ASSOCIATION,
THE PROJECT BOOSTER
- (By Rev. R. M. M. Gallaher)
We praise the Pioneer
For making this a paradise:
The herds of sheep and cattle
Care the multitudes a rise;
The bunch grass on the hillsides
And the meadows in the Tale,
Maintained the Pioneer.
CHORCS
Booster. Booster, be a Booster;
Booster, Booster, be a Booster.
Booster, Booster, be a Booster,
Boost the sturdy. Pioneer,
But now we've passed the station,
Where we have the open range;
The rancher must diversify.
And boost along the Orange;
Well convert the plains into a farm
With water make the change.
To Boost the Produce on.
CHORUS
There are knockers on the corners,
There are knockers in the hills;
We will put them on the hummer
With a thousand stinging thrills.
We will fill their place with Boos
ters, We will make the Project show
While we Boost The Ochoco.
CHORCS
With canals upon the ridges.
And alfalfa in the fields,
We will beautify the homesteads
And produce abundant yields.
With cows and hogs to Jielp us
We'll put dollars in our kiels.
While we push the work
along.
f
CHORUS
Then we sing a strain for Upton,
And we hum a line for Biggs;
We will advertise the features
Which will make the tourist dig;
While the roads will honor Wallace
And the Dam will stand for Rea,
! , While the Railroad rolls
along.
CHORUS
A PARODY
An exchange has paraphrased the
Ford as follows:
"The Ford is my chariot, I shall
ot want. It maketh me lie down
in wet places, it destroyeth my soul.
It leadeth me into deep waters, it
leadeth me into the paths of ridicule
for its name sake. It prepareth a
break down for me in the presence
t mine enemies. It will fear more
vil when it's with me, its rods and
its shafts discomfort me. It anoin
my face with oil, its water boileth
over. Surely to goodness if Lizzie
fallows me all the days of my life,
I shall dwell in the house of nuts
torever. Ex. , ;., , - ..

There Is a law In this state gov

the County Court and the Irrlgatiou
District may be forced to co-operate
and put the measure into effect. The
subject has been discussed by the
Court and the District and If put
in effect will mean that each ditch
rider in the employ of the district
will be appointed a weed inspector.
He will have the authority to notify
any land owner to clean up and
burn the weeds on his property, if
same is not done within 20 days af
ter notice has been served he will
have the authority to have the work
done and the cost will be charged
up against the property concerned
and will be a lien on the property.

same time the farmer using the wa

to cuss the ditch rider and the irri

matter is almost impossible tor the
ditch riders to controL This weed
condition will either check the wa
ter high enough to overflow the
banks and cause a break in the ditch
or will flood out the water-user
above the weed Jam.
To reduce this nuisance to a min
imum, it is suggested that the farm
ers under the project co-operate with
the district and get rid of the weeds
in the fields, and when weeds are
seen in the laterals that run through
their land, to take a few moments
time, pull them out and burn them
when dry. If each water user would
take as little as one hour's time dur

The weed nuisance is the greatest
difficulty now confronting the water
asers under the Ochoco Project, and
Jt Is the principal cause of breaks
and poor water service during the
irrigation season.
, Up to the preesnt time it has cost
the district about $3000 for clean- j
ing weeds alone and unless more
eo-operation is had from the farmers
it will perhaps cost that much more.
As fast tus the employes of the dis
