Lying beyond the southern line of

scene of great industrial activity and the
home of many people, (irant County
is but little know n because of its isola
tion, but it has begun to attract attention
from the outside world Its mines have
been found to be rich wherever devel
oped to any extent, its timber is exten
sive, its stock ranges large and its posei
bilities for agriculture and horticulture
far in excess of what have been sup
posed, (irant County is as larga as the
two counties of Morrow and Umatilla,
but it has less than 10, Oik) inhabitants,
no railroads, and none of its resources
are developed. Trairie City, its largest
mining camp, is new, and the ledges
abont Uranite and Snsanville are yet un
explored to any great extent. Facilities
(iood progress is tieing made on the
Fish Lake irrigation ditch, which start"
at a point on Little Untie Creek, about
Oil miles from Medford. Work is pro
gressing ss well as can be expected.
The ditch itself is practically completed
and the remaining work to be done con
sists mainly of the construction of flumes.
About 1 laborers are employed on the
ditch. The machinery consists of two
eighi-horse plows, two four-horse plows,
one Austin road grader and about I'll
two-horse scrapers. The company has
purchased about -MOO acres of land along
ttie ditch, which will be for stock rais
ing and the grow th of alfalfa. The com
pany states that by next May about
