HAS ORDERED OUTFIT Will Try To Got Artesian Water On Tholr Deaort Lands Near Band and Redmond. . The DHHuhntes Irrigation & Power Company ,wijl make a thorough test of the fanibility of getting deep weU water on their lands 111 the Bend and lledinund pectione, and with this object in view they have ordered a complete drilling out . fit, capable, of drilling to a depth of 1OO0 feet. W lis will be sunk in the Redmond and Bend neighborhoods as soon as the drilj arrives, and the depth to which they have, prepared to drill indicates the extent of the experiment they will make in that direction. Officers of the companj' who have made a thorough study of the question believe that water can be had at a, depth of be tween 300 and 400 feet. The work of drilling will be in the hands of an expert driller from the East. It is even believed by members of the company.'! that artesian water may be se cured within the depth indica ted. , Tlje D. L & P. Company realises the. importance of the question of a pure water supply in any countiy and especially: in an irrigation district where the population will, in time, be large. The present water sup ply at Redmond is secured from the compaiij''s main ditch, and in addition to being warm ami unpalatable, after running through the open ditch, for 25 miles, it is also believed to be not altogether wholesqme, and;; most of those who use this' w'mer first boil it before using. If it should be demonstrated that good, pure . water can be s cured in wells at a depth ol 300 10 400 feet, it will mean a solution. of this difficult problem for that country. If water should be found' within the, depth natned at Bend and Redmond, it will also' stimulate an effort in this sec tion to solve k the verjr trouble some water question, by sink ing deep wells. Tlie geological character and formation of this section is quite similar to thai along the Deschutes near Red mond and Bend, and, if watei can be secured by drilling theie, .1 a.iv' t. :n 1. f 1 11 ero me luoae. uo win mime a more determined effort here to secure deep water. Somej time ago Prank . Loveland started, to .drill , a well on the north end, of the Plains but this was discontinued after depth of only .a .little, moie tl)an 110 feet wab reached. Very little.! hope was entertained r by. the.' settlers of the Plain's of aecur-i ing water at that depth, but) Mr. Strain, who was having the: well Blink', 'concluded to discou-1 tinue it for the preseut4 when that depth ho,d,t)een reached. BIG FAIRAT REDMOKD the irrigated lands of that dis trict, and the other for the pro- . ducts of the rest of the county. The money for the prizes will bo offered by the Deschutes Irri gation & Power Co., and it is done for the purpose of adror- ' Using the company's lands and : promoting the farming industry of the county. Farmers of this locality who have agricultural products of any kind worth exhibiting should secure a list of the pre miums offered, and enter the contest. Much good advertising results from these fairs. A baseball tournament is also being arranged to take place at. Redmond during the fair, and another of the attractions will be a football game between county teams. A SUBTERRANEAN LAKE STRUCK BY RANCHER i)l6GIN6 A WELL Body of Excellent Water Tapped At 81 Feet In Hill Near North End of AgencV Plains. D. I. & I.

The Spicers dug their well down for filty fee.t with pick and shoveland from that depth were sinking it with a hand drill, wheu at a depth of SI feet the drill broke through into wliatis apparently a subterranean lake, or body of water. The hole is only live, inches in diameter, and since striking the body of water they have been drawing np water for all ranch and household pur poses in pne of the long narrow well buckets with bottoin valve,. The water is cool and clear, and i he supply appears inexhaus tible, although the body of water or subterranean lake is less than iwo feet deep. The Spicer homestead is situ ated in. the. range of. hills east of the Fisher place, and the finding of a body of water is all the more remarkable owing to the location of, the ranch. Sev eral qther wells have been sunk near Fishervillo, but in every case, they have been , on much1 .ower ground, and .the water supply has . come from small springs which wera tapped by the well. The Spicer ranch is piobably not to exceed, 100 feet lower than Agency Plains. CBflSS Hnpfps AT PENDLETON .
