Mr. Goodmnn is an enthusiastic ir rigator and speaks In highest terms of the wonderful revolution which Ir rigation of the desert has performed In his portion of Umatilla county. It has been but n few yenrs since the entire country surrounding the Hudson Bay was an unproductive desert, an eyesore to the adjacent set tlers and a refuge for coyotes and Jackrabblts. Gradually the pioneer ir rigators, himself among the rest be gan branching nut with ditches, re claiming tract after tract of the wil derness, converting it into homes acre by acre, until today almost the entire district Is now either under water, or has irrigation systems in contemplation In the near future. The large Idle tracts formerly used for pasture have been cut up into small farms and each now supports Its family, schools nnd churches are springing up. roads are laid out. so ciety is forming and the Hudson Bay district is one of the most prosperous in Umatilla county. Xaturally. a man who has witnessed this evolution of the desert, through irrigation.

The water supply in the Hudson Bay district has been excellent this season, and crops have been enorm ous. As the land Is reclaimed. It re quires less and less wnter tn bring crops, as the surplus water fills the soil and stores a supply that can ho drawn on at will in future. The soil in that district is especial ly adapted to fruit and alfalfa, and as the small tracts are more highly cul .Ivated. their productiveness Is in creased rapidly. FOR A NEW ROAD.

A petition is in circulation which will be presented to the county court in August to have a new road sur veyed, platted and put In condition for travel between McKay postofiice and Meacham. The present road be tween those points is 12 miles long and a poor road nt that, most of the distance. The new proposed route will be about eight mries long ap proximately shortening the distance between .McKay and Meacham one third. It is said that the new road would run entirely across land subject to en try and sale, and that about three miles of it would be entirely new road. The habitants of that district hope for a distribution or mall destined for McKay and more distant points, (as well as for the territory between Meacham nnd McKay) at Meacham. claiming that the completion of the proposed road will make a dally mail entirely feasible, besides actually shortening the time for such mail be tween the railroad and McKay and other points, McKay being now 25 miles from - the railroad as the pres ent mall route makes the distance.
