Washington. D. C, Sept. 16. Uma tilla county. Ore., will furnish the trump card played by the United States reclamation service In making the showing which Justifies its exist ence as against Carey act projects be fore the National Irrigation congress at Albuquerque. X. M., In October, for the officials of the reclamation service declare that the most really ideal conditions under Irrigation in the west are to be found in the Her mlston valley In the west end of that county. Mr. C J. Rlanehard. chief statisti cian of the reclamation service, who will have charge of the showing to be made by that department of the gov ernment at the congress, has but re cently visited the project where he made observations and took several pictures of the development from a sage brush desert which has been made during the past year. Mr. Blanchard's success in picture mak ing at Hermlston led him to Order Walter Lubkln, photographer for the reclamation service, to that place. and later Special Photographer White both of them seculng remarkably fine pictures of the development since the government has undertaken to water that project.' The best of these pictures, It is un derstood, will be used In making lan tern slides for the Illustrated lecture which Mr. Blanchard expects to de liver before the congress at Albu querque. For a long time the officials of the reclamation service have made it no secret that the Hermlston project was their pet among all the 26 reclama tion enterprises the. government has undertaken. Indeed, It is generally understood here that the natural con- ditions In that valley are so favorable that they look to this one place to Justify in the highest manner the plan of the national reclamation ser vice by becoming probably the most fruitful and valuable irrigated dis trict In the country. In discussing his recent visit to the Umatilla district, Mr. Blanchard de clared that the town of Hermlston had made a better and more sub stantial growth during the IS months of its existence than any other town within the areas of the 26 national ir rigation projects and that the devel opment on the project Itself during the six months since the water has been turned on the land is unsurpass ed by the showing of any other pro ject under similar circumstances. He was particularly Impressed by the so cial and church advantakes of the place and is very enthusiastic over its advantages for homemakers. Former Pendleton Hoy Married in Alherta Son or M. A.

Commercial National Bank United States Depository Should Plan Re Adopted County Su perintendent Would Re Made Of ficial of Pnvcr Instead of Office Man Legislature Will Ro Asked to Require County Treasurers to Handle School Funds. Radical changes in the present school laws of the state are desired by the county superintendents and at the meeting Just held at Salem their Ideas were freely discussed. At the coming session of the legislature an effort will be made to have at least some of the new Ideas enacted into law. The most radical thing proposed at the meeting, according to Superin tendent Frank K. Welles, who came home last evening. Is a plan whereby the county is made the unit for all the districts contained theiein. Un der this plan the county superinten dent Is to be elected by a school board on the same plan a city super intendent now serves and all the county school affairs are to be direct ed from one general head. Such a plan would make the county super intendent a school man Instead of an office man. However, this Idea will not be pre sented to the legislature this year as the superintendents believe that the people are not yet ready for the change. Of the recommendations the super intendents will actually make to the legislature the most Important Is one which provides that henceforth the county treasurer handle the money from all school districts excepting those of the first-class. This would relieve school clerks of all financial responsibility. The recent meeting, according to Mr. Welles, was a round-table affair and was very beneficial. Upon al most every proposition discussed he says that those assembled were unan imous In conclusions. All but six superintendents were present. FrciM-h Sold Cattle. J. D.

Johns may not wear purple pajamas, but he certainly does admire fine linen for his sleeping gear. According to n story current here the native aslstocracy of Baker's pop ular official manifested Itself recently during the absence of the mayor's charming wife, who hns Just return ed from an out-of-town visit. The mayor was very particular about going to bed early and keeping things running In the same old way. He decided he would even do better than usual and before Mrs. Johns was to return he had the residence thor oughly cleaned. Here Is where he went too far. for the party who cleaned the house dis covered that the city's chief executive had changed the sheets on his bed and Instead of getting a pair of sheets he had dressed the bed in two linen table cloths and had been using them as sheets for several days.
