Vaiighan 831 Main Street Phone 139 STORIES DAMAGING PROJECT ARE REFUTED IN REPORT (Continued from page one.) M. E. Miller one of the candidate for labor commissioner, made his campaign with pictures of factory buildings In full operation. "The men to whom I talked for the moHt part told me that on beginning their work on the project they knew nothing of irrigation, that their work had been much of It wasted on that account, and that their Improvements could be made by them now, If be ginning again, more efficiently than they were made, and at a cost of not to exceed fifty per cent of what has teen put Into them. It seems to me that the difficulties of the project are, In the main, due to the fact that the settlers were in general not prepared to handle the land at the time they went onto it. This, both on account of lack of knowledge and on account of lack of flnanclul resources. In no part of the United States, and especit. ly In no section where land has to be reclaimed from the waste,.- can a homesteader expect, to go onto raw land and make a living from It from the start. Sandy Hill Area. "The sandy hill section, about which there has been the most discussion, was gone over with particular care, visiting it both before and after the rest of the project had been seen. The sandy hill consists of about twenty seven hundred acres, but of this area there are water rights on only four teen hundred acres, (these figures furnished by the project engineer) "The settlers on the sandy hill are some of them quite well established and apparently have their places close to an income basis; others have only recently started or have done llttlo development work, and are still de cidedly in the Investment stage. This section of the project Is considered by the people on It, and by many others with whom I talked, exceptionally well adapted for fruit and berry grow ing. Both berries and fruit are do ing well where given proper care, and while the trees are very few of them old enough to bear, they look quite healthy and are growing well, and berries are producing heavily. The term "hill" Is somewhat of a mis nomer as the elevation is only about fifty feet greater than the average of the project. Problems to IJe Solved. "The problem in this "Sandy Hill" section is, and of necessity must con tinue for some time to be, the water supply? The land is sandy, though not materially more so than portions of the project elsewhere, but It Is underlaid with a coarser sand and until the soil disintegrates by the ac tion of water and sun and is built up by fertilization and the addition of humas, the water drains off to such an extent that an excessive amount is required. However, on one of the sandiest portions of it I saw a stream from a lath pipe about an inch in diameter running from a small ditch by the side of a tree row and carrying water in that ditch for a distance of about 150 feet The settler told me that when he began to work the land the water would not have run more than 25 feet before disappearing en tirely, and he ascribed the difference iiiffiiiffiiitiiiiif flillllllllltllllllllllllllllllllllllllllltllllllllllllllllttltlttV m m I iiiiiniM""i"ii""i'"i iiiiiiiiiiimiii in i Planning tor tne i Stork's Arrival 'j.kLi in-1 Among thono ttiinnn which oil womo s should know of, and many of them do, Is a splendid ex- S temal application S sold In moat drug S stores under the 2 name of "Mother's s Friend."

"This section being higher Is freer from frost than the surrounding coun try, and to hat extent has an advan tage in fruit and berry culture. It Is absurd to say that the soli ' of this nendy hill Is generally Infertile. Soil can not be classed as "Infertile" which le producing, and producing well. Al falfa on this land is not usually as good as alfalfa on the lower levels, but this. In my opinion. Is not due so much to the quality of the soil as to the fact that on account of the sub surface conditions above mentioned. large amount of water Is required to Irrigate it properly. This necessi tates more work In applying the wa ter, and as a consequence the crop In moBt cases suffers. Financial Condition. A considerable proportion of the settlers in this area are homesteaders. They came onto the land with, on the average, less money than their neighbors on patented land. They also have more difficulty In securing adequate credit to stock up their farms and to aid In developing them and get them on an income basis, for the reason that they have not complete titles to their farms. Depending, for the most part, upon their own efforts to level their land and prepare it for Irrigation, and at the same time, get ting their land set to fruit has neces sarily made development work slow and difficult. A homesteader should be in a position to put back onto the land a large part of what he takes from it during the first few years of his work upon it. Progress Is espec ially slow in a fruit district, such as this one is. Conclusion. "It seems to me that the crops growing on this land at the present time disprove as conclusively as Is possible the allegation that the land is. to any considerable extent, "In fertile," and the experience, both here and elsewhere, is that as the land Is cultivated and crops grown on It from year to year, it will become more fertile." "The farmers on the project are. for the most part, doing well and it is doubtful -If there Is a less percent age of failures or cases where men are having extreme difficulty in mak ing ends meet in any section of the state. Thevcashler of the Hermtston bank told me that he had lent $15,000 in the past eighteen months to far mers on the project to buy cows, and that the notes were all being taken care of and that he has not had to "As to the project In general, from an agricultural standpoint, and aside from the problems of the sandy hHl area, above mentioned, there can be no question in any reasonable mind. Intelligent treatment and cultivation of the soil is necessary to the success of any irrigated land. And where in telligence and labor are being applied in fair quantities and proportions to thlss oil, it is responding and the re sults are gratifying." The Alexander Dept.
