Will Attempt to Secure a Recom mendation for nil 0M'ii ('until Sys tem of Winter Irrigation for Ka st ern Oregon Officers Elected for tlio Oregon Delegation W'ere K. L. Smith. lVesiileiu. mid V. V. Stanley, Secretary. The Oregon delegation to the Xu tlonul Irrigation congress met yester day afternoon ut the Oregon building on the exposition grounds and elected E. L. Smith of Hood Itlver, chairman, and F. F. Stanley, secretary. Selec tions ill accordance with the require ments of the national congress were made as follows: ( Vice-president for Oregon, Col. H C. Judson of Portland; member of the executive committee for Oregon, Fred S. Stanley of Portland: member of the resolutions committee, W. R. King of Ontario; member of the nominations committee, O. A. Stearns of Klamath Falls. Several members of the delegutlon stated that they expected to empha size the importance of the open ditch in the reclamation of arid lands, es pecially In Eastern Oregon, and that it was probable that before the con gress ends the subject would be brought forward for discussion by the delegates. The federal government never has recognized the open ditch as a part of the general reclamation scheme; only reservoir projects have been Indorsed by the government engineers. "It is not a theory that we are ad vocating." said H. C. Willis of Echo. to the Oregon Daily Journal. "We have the fungible evidence of the value of the open ditch to show to any one who will come to Echo, Max well, Umatilla or Irrigon. The last named town is Just outside of Uma tilla county, but uses water from the Umatilla river. "The Maxwell Land & Irrigation company of which J. F. McXaught Is manager, has 4000 acres under the open ditch and will have 4000 more covered by spring. The Butter Creek Irrigation company has 10,000 re claimed. The Cold Spring Irrigation company has let contracts for ditches to cover 10,000 acres, work to be completed by January 1. The W. J Furnish company has let contracts for canals to cover 20,000 acres and work Is now In progress. At Irrigon 2000 acres are actually under cultiva tion and 50,000 acres will be before long. A Tacoma colony is negotiating with the Butter creek company for an extension of Its ditch with a view to bringing 10.000 ncres more under water. "On Butter creek for 40 years O. F. Thomson has been raising alfalfa by the open ditch Irrigation, and along thut creek are scores of farms on which the same has been done. "With the open ditch as the basis of Its prosperity the Echo country has this year produced 7000 head of beef cattle, worth $259,000; 10,000 stock cattle, worth $200,000; 40,000 sheep, worth $72,000; 2000 horses, worth $60,000; wool worth $65,000; 50,000 tons of alfalfa hay, worth $350, 000; wheat worth $260,000; fruit worth $90,000; 1000 tons of sugar beets, worth $4000, and dairy product worth $25,000. "There Is no antugonism between the open ditch and the reservoir plans of the government. The open ditch merely does Immediately what the reservoir scheme will do In time re claim the arid land. Later the reser voir may be added, if It is desired, and the engineers decide It to be funs. Ibie for that region." SAVED HIS C OUNTY H.VHMI. King County Sheriff Forced Northern Puclflc to Puy for Deputies. Sheriff Lou Smith has been doing a little frenzied financiering but of a most commendable sort, says the Seat tie Star. In the past 19 days Sheriff Smith has saved King county just about 85, 000. Better still, the $5000 was paid by a corporation. It was all very simple. When the Northern Pacific had an Internal rumpus und found Itself with a string of striking operators reach ing from St. Paul to tho Pacific on Its hands It appealed to Sheriff Smith for deputies to protect Its road In King county. The octopus thought It would require about 40 deputies to keep things orderly and nice. . Lou Smith sat down and figured It all out. Ho could not see that any body's property other than thut of the Northern Pacific was endangered, and the peril. If any there was, came from the Internal mechanism of the octo pus Itself. So the sheriff couldn't see Just why King county should send out 40 spe cial deputies ut Its own expense. He therefore told the octopus that If It wanted any deputies to protect It from Itself It could furnish salaries and transportation for every man sent out. This, he mid, was final. The result was that eucn of the 40 deputies sent out was put on tho Northern Pacific payroll, and each was furnished with transportation as an employe, of tho road. Tho men were sent out August 2, and reported on Monday morning. To each was due 19 days' pay al $4. SO per day, the entire force costing tho octopus $3420 for salaries. Transportation and Incidentals, which would have cost King county upward of $1,000, brings the figure saved to King coun ty up to about $5000. BROOM ()ltX H0 PER TON. Strong Demand for New Crop In Wll liuiielte Valley. A new product for the farmers of Oregon Is being developed In a way and there seems reason to bellcvo It will In the future prove a valuable product. Since the Sulein broom fac tory has been operated here In Salem there has opened up a pretty good de mand for broom corn and now there Is an offer of S0 per ton for it, says the Salem Statesman. At Derby Wilson's there is being shown a few samples of what can be done In the way of raising broom corn, and It would seem that the pros pects tire good for those who would enter this new agricultural field. A. W. Froglel, who lives on Knise- bot tom, has n half acre of it, and it Is doing remarkably well. The broom com of the cast Is large ly a failure this year on acount of the dry hot winds and there will be a heavy demand for this imperial. Again the acreage ill the east Is reported very slight this year, fully half less than last year. 0 UMATILLA STATION AGENT CURTIS HAS ICICSl'MED HIS DUTIES, Warm Weather Items For Indoor comfort aael satiafTtnj samer meals, we offer jtm IrP frPJim Proaiar ,,,nt w,u tTf'ae " " cream and ,v,c Vl Wl rl IC&CI. require the least I and labor, and the safe kind, that cooks the food aad not the cook.
