PETITION FOR
HARD SURFACE
PROPERTY OWNERS
ASK IMPROVEMENT.
Pavement un Delaware Avenue and
Lava ItMul Will lie Flint Con.
nlrurlrd in llend Date of
Work Not Yet Hpecifled.
To residents of Delaware avenue
and Lava road will go tha dlntinc
tlon of being tho first in Ilend to
have hard surfaced streets, for with
the annurance that there would bo
enough signers to Insure pluns for
thn improvement going through, pe
titions were started this afternoon.
What nort of pavement will be de
termined on Is not certain, and, In
fact, the residents of Delaware and
Lava roud apparently have , little
preference Junt so they get hard
surfacing. In gcnerul, three types
ure available concrete, bltulithlc or
wood block but It Is thought thut
the lust named variety might not
prove succennful because of the
possibility of shrinkage during the
long dry neuson.
Itnnrmft Art to AM.
Property owners are anxious to
take advantage of the Bancroft
bonding act, and because of a
quentlon connected with thin, it is
not certain whether construction
wHl bo wunted thin year or In 1920.
Tho net provlden that improvements
exceeding tho aHnesned vuluatlon of
the property benefited must be paid
fur in cuhIi to the amount, of the
difference between cost and assenned
valuation. At present there are 16
vacant lotn on Delaware, but five
of these will be built on shortly.
The main feature, cornea, however,
in the Increased assessment for
1920. which, it Is thought, would
allow practically the whole improve
ment to come under tho 10-year
distribution of cost provided by the
Uuncroft act.
Work to lie Thorough.
To find out whether or not prop
erty 'owners can now take advan
tage ot the Increase for the coming
year. City Recorder Peoples has
written to bonding experts in Port
land for on opinion, but the peti
tion will be completed and filed
whether construction will be pos
sible during the present year, or In
1920. In addition to pavements,
concrete curbs and wulks are pro
posed. Nearly two months ago a petition
was filed by residents ot Ogden ave
nue, asking for a bard surfaced
street, but it wna found on Investi
gation thnt cindering was Intended
by tho words "hard surface." The
residents on Delaware and Lava
rind, headed by Sheriff S. E. Hob
eats, however, want a real pavo-
nirnt, but may havo lo wait a year
bofory they get It.

FOREST FIRES
EASILY HELD
LITTLE TROUBLE EXPERIENCED
ON DESCHUTES FOREST AS
YET, ALTHOUGH DANGER SEA
SON IS AT HAND.
Two forest fires on Trout creek,
south of Sisters, were reported last
night by lookouts, and J. D. Bow
man and H. E. Vincent, who were
sent out from the office ot the for
est supervisor, now have them un
der control. It was reported this
morning. Both fires are believed
to have been caused by the recent
lightning storm, and to have smol
dered until the woods became dry
enough to burn.
Lookouts are reporting consider
able difficulty in making observa
tions due to the dense smoke hang
ing over certain parts of the forest.
As no fires of any extent have been
noted for nearly a week, it is be
lieved that the smoke has drifted
across the Cascades from conflagra
tions on the other side of the moun
tains. The real danger time has prac
tically arrived for Central Oregon
forests, and Supervisor Jacobson
suggested this morning tbat in ad
dition to other precautionary meas
ures a great source of trouble
would be eliminated If campers and
tourists would abstain from smok
ing while in the woods, as many
Ores can be traced directly to care
lessness in throwing away cigarettes
or knocking out pipes before they
have been fully extinguished.

WATER HOLDING
PROPERTIES TO
REDETERMINED
BORING STARTED AT
BENHAM FALLS.
WELLS INDICATION
Soundings to Be Made to Depth of
80 Feet Over Large Area In
cluded in Irrigation Stor
age Reservoir Site.
After making a general survey of
the Deschutes valley from Culver to
Crane - prairie, U. S. reclamation
service geologists, headed by Pro
fessor W. O. Crosby of Boston, are
starting to make borings all over
the Benham Falls storage reservoir
site, with the object ot determining
the water holding properties ot thn
ground on which tbe reservoir would
be built.
At various points above Benham
falls, it has been noted, wells have
been sunk by ranchers, ranging in
depth from 20 to 14 feet, and in all
instances having a constant supply
of water, as much as eight feet in
depth. From the fact tbat water is
present, it is argued tbat the char
acter of (be soil Is not such aa to
carry water away by seepage, or
through crevices.
The Investigations of the experts,
however, are to establish this point
beyond a doubt, before any recom
mendations are made. Large ship
augers, which arrived yesterday,
will be used in making the borings,
which will be 20 feet in depth In
order to ascertain li water is found
over the entire tract. This , work
may take in the neighborhood ot
two months.
The reservoir, which will be con
sidered providing a favorable report
la turned in by tbe reclamation
service representatives, "would im
pound the winter overflow of the
j Deschutes behind a huge dam, and
! would perhaps be even more extens
ive, as the entire water rights ot
the river are now tied-up by the
: state for the U. S. government. Ir
jrigation ot at least 100.000 acres
j In Central Oregon would be made
possible. '
