Opinion of (ksiloKiHtN Who
Come Merc on I'lojiut.
DnKpllo tlio fact that there bus
been somewhat of un exodus from
the Kort'Rock valley during the last
three years, there Is no cuuo ac
cording to F. C. Kckelmeyor, who is
a lurge land noiier oi inui pun oi
Luke county, for annum. of that big
valley to lose hope. ,
With the minds of people diverted
now from war Bctlvlile, und recon
struction problems confronting the
government, Mr. Kckuliueydr believes
that the Kort Itock valley .Is one of
the sections of the stute that might
well come under tho eye of persons
Interested In agricultural develop
ment. ','.
rU Arf Holm Ion.
"I have every confldeneo that the
Kort Itock valley can become one of
the rich producing sectlous of Ore
gon. I believe It to he one of the
most promising alfalfa sections any
where to be found In Central Ore
gon. Alfalfa will in prosper there
under the present conditions The
land must have water, und It must
be skilfully cultivated, i There are
no Immediate spurces from which
water can be obtained save through
drilling wells. I know that tbls Is
possible. We have on our tvni farm.
Just 'outside of the town of Kort
Rock, a well that has supplied all
that Is necessary for Irrigation pur
poses. This woll has been tested to
ascertain Its 'capacity. Power was
applied for more than 21 hours and
never was it found to fall to produce
Its maximum.
"These wells ' In the Kort Hock
valley will do a great deal to bring
about production. It must be real
ised that the homesteaders in that
section are poor. They need funds
to carry on this work. One other av
enue la open to Interest capital In
sinking these- Weill for the farmers.
This;. I believe wotfld pay. It would
be Just' like liking bonds on an Irri
gation project.
' (tatloKiHt'a Opinion Akcl.
"On our own ranch wo are having
splendid success. Our crops look
very favorable this year.' The furm
ers who huve funds with whloh to
work' are unking V showing, I be
lieve others could do tho samo.
"Upon the arrival of fhe United
pistes geological experts In Uentl,
I shull try to interest them In a trip
to the Kort Hock valley with the view
to expert opinion on wnter possibil
ities In that section. If It cun be as
certained that water can) be obtained
without too great an expense I shall
try to Interest somo financiers in the
work because I believe ft, Is the sal
vation of the big undeveloped coun
try to tho south. '
"It has occurred to mo, also, thut
(bo commission which Is to erect and
develop several model farms In Ore
gon soon, might wcllnko up the
proposition of developing one of these
farms In tho Kort Hock valley. It
Is easy to develop ono of these model
enterprises In a section where the
tioll is productive and there la plenty
of wator, but why not try out a hard
problem. It will strike a fair aver
age. Then the farmers pf this part of
tho alate will have an example bofore
them, If the plan wore auccessful. It
would inspire confidence.'' ' ' v
