Lewis, for mer State engineer. Surveys were 1o engineers and funds for the work i A cre provided by the State andthe De partment of, the Interior. The work -was completed in 1916. The coat of isurvsy as set forth in the volume was approximately 125.000.00. The first work done on the John Day lands was when the preliminary surveys were made in. the West End of Umatilla County that resulted. in the adoption of the Umatilla Project. This was in J W0 4-5." On account of the magnitude of .the John'Day the work was aban doned in favor of the smaller project Held Work Itesnmed Again in 1908 field work was re etimed by the I'nited States Reclama tion service and in 1914 the trelimin ury surveys described in the printed volume were completed. A large part of. the lands including Public and Northern Pacific railway lands are tiow held In reserve by the v. 8. Itec- Janiatlon Service and the water rights and reservoir sites on the John Day are also held by the United States for future use on these lands. Itentals for grazing purposes ase collected and applied to U. M. Kectamalion work in the Umatilla-Jobn Day districts. While tlie government in protecting the lands and water possibilities for the public is in no sense a dog In the manager and .will surrender its protectorate to any legitimate organisation that will de vulwpe these lands.

YORK OrUKESH M KDHa.MC CO. It V. Tifc aeree Walla Wail. Waah. : Mstricl Is Formed In 1919 the John Day Irrigation Dis trict was formed under the laws of the State of Oregon and it is now prepar ed legally to do business with the U. 8. Reclamation Service and to issue bonds for construction work. A- board of directors with C. C. Clark of Arling ton, as chairman,, were elected and It its under stood that John H. Dewls for merly Stat engineer of Oregon or a mair of similar character - and wide .reputation will soon be selected ap chief engineer and more detailed pre liminary surveys will soon be com' menced. Negotiations- for the sale of bonds will ateo be attempted. The low state of the U. S. Reclamation fund precludes present possibiliets of aid from government sources. If the next Congress awakens to the needs of irrigation in the west and makes a liberal appropriation, and the Smith- Chamberlain bill becomes a law, aid may be obtained under this act. . Finally, the merits of the pro ject are so great that capitalists may be Induced to buy the bonds. The program is large and much is yet to j be accomplished but the project Is feasible and the benefits beyond any j estimate. , There is an abundant wa- ter supply. The soil Is rich and the topography smooth. The land values 1 now do not exceed IS. 0 to 110 per acre. With water and in alfalfa ad 1 joining at Board man the same kind of land cannot e bought for less than j 1250.00 per acre and is yielding net j annual returns from $75.00 to J'JO.tlO j per acre. Under such circumstances ' : the cost of reclamation can be paid for I with less than two seasons' crop. Yak- i I ima valley's Irrigation works cost $40,- VUU.00H. The crops of that valley were last year for $38,000,000. Is the j the directors of the John Day are en titled to unstinted praise for their skill and enterprise in conducting such an important preliminary affair in behalf of the great undertaking. Such work is just as necessary as surveys and ditch digging. Success in any big public enterprise lies first in securing the interest and support of the peo ple who may be affected. But there Is a big task outlined. It is not for Board man-or the directors to do alone but it iff one set for the three contig uous counties and for the entire state.

Robert Cray, driver, and a "woman and two children whose names have not been learned, were uninjured when the ear went over. A Hlippery spot in j the road, which ,1s a detour from thej mai r.highway, and a slight list to the load are believed, responsible for the accident.
