Tho claim is uttorlr ttntcnahln nml for reasons which arc obvious upon tho slightest consideration.

Poindoxter and Arthur Hodges who own adjoin ing tracts of land just west of town and bordering on Crooked river, will try tho experiment, nnd unless the plans wnlch have already been form ulated miscarry successful crops will be grown. The engine which will furnish the power Is a bIx h-p Ell, and has been purchased for a sum approximating 450. It will bo Installed this fall, together with the pump and every thing placed in readiness for the irri gating season next year. Tho pump has a capacity of 12,000 gallons per minute and will drnw ks supply of water irom a well which is to be dug. Seventy-five acres of ground part of which has nlready been broken, will he put luto alfnlfa next spring and the irrigating carried as needed throughout tle season.
