IRRIGATION DELEGATE TELLS
NOVEL STORY OF LIFE WORK
The one woman de)egate lo the
Oregon Irrigation congress which ad
journed Saturday night, created
quite, a sensation ill Portland, ac
cording to an nrllrlo appearing lu
the Oregnnlan, devoted entirely to
Mrs. 0. H. Wigmoie. of the (Sruugo
Hall district. The article Is reprint
ed as follows:
Mistress of tho biscuit dough the

of accomplishments! To see Mrs.

would never suspect this seasoned
farmer's wife of being nn udcenturess
at heart.
Mrs. WiRiuore is from Bend; to be
more exact, she represents the Farm
ers' union there and she Is one of the
best and most convincing orators
that organization boasts. Further
more, she doesn't believe, any woman'
ought to be content to sit back nnd
never acquaint herself with men's
problems. j
"There's many a farmer's wlfo out
in our country who has done as much .

has accomplished almost as much
on it in actual physical labor," said I
Mrs. Wlgmore. "She is vitally Intor-I

Seven years ago she came with her

that time. Mr. WlRtnore didn't know
how to drive a team of horses Into
a field. They purchased a small Irri

nnd began their light for existence.
The nearest 'neighbors were two
bachelors, bandy advisers for the
amateur farmers.

election of a Central Oregon man
to the presidency, the passage of the
resolution urging federal aid for tbe
Deschutes project, and the plariiu;
of a Bend man as chairman of the,
federal aid committee, are considered
aa distinct advantages In the carry
ing out of the irrigation program.
Tbe highest honor at the disposal
of the Oregon Irrigation congress
was bestowed on a Deschutes county
man in the closing session of tbe
congress In Portland, Fred N. Wal
lace, of Tumalo. being chosen to
head the organization for the next
year. Tbe choice was unanimous,

legion Policy Racked.
The congress favored the poller
urged by the American Legion. Click
ing the move to give ex-ervice men
first consideration in apportioning
the laud about I'pper Klamath Lake,
and advocated the immediate exterm
ination of alien anarchists, and the
cancellation of citizenship of reda
who have taken out their papers.
Several resolutions, which call for
action by the legislature, follow:
For immediate enactment of
amendments to the drainage district
laws which will obviate delays in the
future and assist pending organiza
tions to proceed with their develop
ment without unnecessary delay.
Recommending the enactment ot a
low permitting the organization of
cut-over land improvement districts
similar to and under like favorable
conditions now accorded to arid and
swamp lands.
Resolutions Important
That the salary of the state engi
neer be increased by legislative en
actment "to a, figure commensurate
with the responsibilities involved,"
a copy of tliis resolution to be sent
to each member of the legislature
for action at the special session.
Urging the legislature at its spe
cial session to pass a bond issue bill
of. 510,000,000, to be referred to the
people, for completing road construc
tion. Speedy construction of all projects
in the state which have been or may
be approved by the United States rec
lamation department is urged in a
resolution which was unanimously
adopted.
Among resolutions passed of par
ticular interest to the people of Cen
tral Oregon, one calling for federal
aid in the construction of the Des
chutes project, is prejnlnent, and Is
in fact the measure which the"
Centra Oregon delegation were most
firmly determined to carry through,
