A C H IN G , BURNING AND INFLAMED State Engineer Lewis Says Irrigation Work is Revelation. Salem— A fte r traveling 1,000 miles through Central and Souhern Oregon, half o f the distance by automobile and stage, State Engineer John H. Lew is is back at the state captiol and reports that development work and advance­ ment o f Carey act projects are a revel­ ation to him. “ During the past few years the de­ velopment work has been remarkable,” he asserts. “ A t Prineville they are expecting a big rush o f settlers be­ cause o f the recent opening o f the road land grants and prospects are bright for a branch o f the Oregon Trunk up Crooked river. “ A t Laidlaw the indications piont to a reorganization o f the Columbia Southern project and it is probable construction work w ill be resumed for the purpose o f reclamation o f 30,000 acres o f valuable land. “ Irrigation development is causing signal activity at Bend. In addition to this factor, timber, railroad con­ struction and waterpower development are all opening a great era fo r that already prosperous community. Lot- that sold fo r next to nothing on the main street o f the town ten years ago are now going at $4,000. Many new houses are being erected and a great rush o f settlers is expected. “ Forty miles south o f Bend heavy machinery is being assembled and con­ struction work is beginning on an irri­ gation project to water 30,000 acres. Development work here is in charge o f the Deschutes Land company. The main line o f the Oregon Trunk w ill go directly through this project and the Natron-Klamath line is to pass within a few hundred feet o f the dam site in Crescent Lake, which supplies water for the project. La Pine is the town- site for this development work and there is now talk o f moving Rossland, the old town, to La Pine so that it w ill be on the railroad. From L a Pine al- reay can be heard the sound o f blast­ ing on the Natron-Klamath line, where work is being carried on over the mountain. Every blast is cheerful news to the people o f the Deschutes. “ A t Paisley the 12,000-acre Carey act project is being delayed because o f conflict in water rights. “ A t Lakeview the dam and main canal o f a 50,000-acre private project are nearly complete and the land under the canal sold. “ Perhaps o f all prospective projects in Southern Oregon the one in Warner Lake valley I found had the more nu­ merous interesting features. This is 40 miles east o f Lakeview and $30,000 has already been expended in surveys looking to the development o f 100,000 acres o f land. This valley is 80 miles long and runs from five to 15 miles in width, between rock bluffs 3,000 feet high. The land here w ill be developed by the state under the Carey act. The company doing the work is under $7,- 000 bonds to make a complete inves­ tigation and is apparently going ahead in good faith, notwithstanding there are immense obstacles blocking the path. “ A canal o f 1,000 second-foot capac­ ity w ill have to be constructed for 15 miles along an almost vertical rock c liff and three miles o f dikes, 40 to 50 fe e t in height, must be constructed across a peat bog, in addition to sever­ al storage sites, long flumes and in­ verted siphons. “ The tract, however, is very desir­ able, and lies well fo r irrigation, hav­ ing an excellent climate, and with railroad facilities, which have been definitely promised, may prove very feasible to irrigate.

Portland— That Portland w ill reap fu lly $2,000,000 as a result o f the N a ­ tional Wool Growers’ convention and the National Sheep show January 4, 5, 6 and 7, 1911, is the b elief o f persons prominently identified with commercial activity in the city. The National Wool Growers’ Con­ vention and Sheep Show, the first ever held in Oregon, is expected to bring into Portland fully 25,000 dele­ gates and persons interested in the sheep and wool business. Members o f the Portland Commer­ cial club and Oregon Wool Growers’ association met with George S. W alk­ er, secretary o f the National Wool Growers’ association, and formulated plans for the largest convention and show ever held in the history o f the sheep or wool industry in the United States. A number o f innovations are to be introduced at the Portland show. Among these w ill be an exhibition of collie and shepherd dogs, o f which the Northwest has many breeders and fan­ ciers. This exhibition will be for both' exhibition and “ working” animals. The latter w ill be “ worked” as on a sheep range for the edification o f the visitors. Arrangements are being made by C. B. MinUn, secretary o f the show, for a monster exhibition o f Angora goats simultaneously with the sheep show. Alw ays heretofore at the annual show this feature has been neglected, but a t the January show it is planned to make this a stellar attraction. “ The brand o f mohair grown in Oregon ex­ ceeds that o f any part o f the United S tates," said Mr. Minton, “ and as the industry is much followed in Oregon, we hope to have fully 1,000 thorough­ bred Angora goats at the exhibition.” N ot only w ill awards be given to prize sheep, but the fat stock and mutton w ill have a special department with cash awards. This is also an in­ novation. Negotiations have been opened to obtain the armory for the sheep show and the convention sessions. F R U IT IN JE O PA R D Y . ATCHISON GLOBE SIGHTS.
