Y«a, There'» a Lot of Itl Area of 23,400 Acres to Be Put Under Water on Ochoco Prin eville- The board o f directors o f the Ochoco Irrigation district, at a meeting at Prineville this week, ac cepted the report o f R. W. Rea, proj ect engineer, which haa been forward ed to the State engineer for his ap proval, and as soon as that office haa had an opportunity to go over the re port an election o f the land owners in the district will be called to vote the necessary bonds for construction. The report shows that the Ochoco project ia one o f the moat worthy and feasible projects in the state o f Ore gon. The lands in the project form a compact area comprising 28,400 acres o f irrigable land. O f this area about 3f> per cent ia partially irrigated, 30 per cent la dry farmed and 35 per cent is undeveloped land. These lands with water w ill raise from three to five tons o f alfa lfa to the acre. W ater fo r the project w ill be ob tained from Ochoco and McKay creeks. The reservoir p roceed for Ochoco Greek w ill have a capacity o f 47,000 acre feet, and be created by a dam o f the hydraulic earthflll type, with a maximum height o f 126 feet. For the time being only the flood waters of McKay creek will be used, the storage dam and reservoir not being considered necessary for at least 1 0 .years. Prineville— The decision o f the Su preme court Tuesday in the suit ot George H. Brewster against Crook county for $332, unpaid salary, haa Anally disposed o f a matter which haa been a source o f contention and dis pute for years over who was liable for the (tay and control o f the water mas ter. The decision reached Judge Duffy thia week, and his decision o f the con troversy has been completely sustained and the county court has lost ita battle which has lasted for two years. W ater masters in counties where there is considerable irrigation have important duties, as the right to use water is most jealously guarded, and the importance o f this decision is far- reaching and Anally determines a ques tion th.vt has been a source o f much dispute.
