Freewater and Hudwn Bay Company Arrange for Construction of Ditches—List of Petitioners to the County Court. i The project which was detailed a' length in the East Oregonian several weeks ago for the organization of an irrigation district at Milton and Free v.ater. which was to be the first irri gation district in the state under the law of 1895, will probably crystallize. At the time the plans were first made public, it will be remembered that there was some doubt about the promoters hanging together. Most of those interested had been using water from private ditches for years and many of them were loath to re- linquish the privilege they had so long enjoyed in their own wav However, nearly everytxxiy interest ed has tome to an understanding and the proj»-ct will undoubtedly be put through according to its original pro jectors. or nearly so. A good deal of the credit for the present concert of action belongs to Jonathan Talbert, who has been ac live and insistent for a long time in the interosts of the proposed district. Through his efforts and those of others the objections to th«- plan have been allayed by a careful study of the law of 1895. and its interprets tion by Judge Lowell. It is expected that the petitioners to the county court will be those whose names ap pear below. A few of the original petitioners withdrew their names at on«- juncture, when it was feared the plan would have to be abandoned but it is understood that these names have ail or nearly all. been returned to the list. The petitioners are as follows: Jonathan Talbert. W. H. Wilmot John Schott. H. L Cauvel. E. D. Olsen. W. L Powell. James Shaw. B. S. Brook«. James Andrews. Nels Swanson. Lewis Furness. Fred Beller.

The water will come from a splendid spring which is considera bly less than a mile from the agency buildings. The new laundry will be built of brick, and be 30x50 feet ir size, one story in height.

INSPECTOR BEAN REPORTS ALL IN FINE CONDITION. Cattle Healthy and in Good Flesh in Northern Part of County—Thinks New Methods Necessary in Sheep Raising. Stock Inspector Bean has just re turned from a lo-days' tour of the northern part of the county. In that part of the county as well as in other districts, he reports th«- stock in fine condition except in the foothills, The snow stayed on so long and the continued cold weather and long feeding also made the anl- reals as a rule pretty thin, sheep, ?at- tie and horses alike. But in w li thirds of the area of the county the stock of all kinds finished the win ter in good condition, being healthy as well as in good flesh. There was. except in the hay pro ducing districts, a scarcity of forage and of hay. In only a portion of the hay districts is there any surplus of hay. Mr. Beau believes th«- time is here for the commencement ot somewhat new methods in the sheep industry in this county .the tendency being de cidedly in favor of a mor«- intensive system, From now on mor«- and more alfalfa, grain and root crops will lx- fed. and many of th«' sheep raises are arranging to aliandon the policy of hunting summer range jn the moun- tains, as being expensive and final, cially risky compared with lot-feed ing of products raised on the ranch. Mr. B«-an believes that after the re adjustment of conditions, some of which harve been mentioned, that then- will be as many sheep in Uma tilla county a» ever while the produc tion of hay. grain and root crops will be enormously Increased. Also that there will lx- just as much money made, while fewer risks will lie taken, the n«-w methods eliminating most of the risks the sheepmen now have to contend with. Irrigation Co-related. He considers that the irrigation question must b«- «-«»-related with ’he realignment of factors controling the sheep industry. The curtailment «rf the fon-st ranges will be one factor ot great influence in hastening thes-- changes. One result will be the pro duction of a much larger per cent of mutton sht-ep than now Many bre«-d er* are already recognizing the errot of exclusive woolgrowing and that there is money esptH-ially in the rai*- mg of yearling muttons Mr Bean reports that there is scab in but one flock in this county. anJ only two flocks have had any traie of the lisease this spring. The first flock infected is now entirely *ree from the complaint, and in the one mentioned it is being rapidly gott-.-n rid of. There has been no occasion for the state veterinary being in ti.c county since last fall. GRAND MISSION. I ji Grand«-.
