him in its deadly hug. Whereupon

One of the most remarkable re
sults of irrigation in the immediate
vicinity of llend is the change in
the climatic conditions. The
climnlological records show that
even through the month of Julv
and August on certain dates the
minimum tbinicratiuedrnped frorn
four to nine deurces lielow freezing
during every yenr prior to 1005.
since a record was ketU. While it
call hardly le said that irrigation
has commenced in the vicinity of
Mend, yet with the water diverted
through the vicinity in the
cunnls and ntso applied to a small
acreage scatleted over about four
square miles, it is not only a fuel
that there was no frost at all for Go
days during both 1905 and 1906,
but corn, cucumbers, tomatoes and
melons have been successfully
raised during this year within a
tadius of two miles iiiouud llend,
this being about the most elevated
section uudrr lh irrigation system.
Considering these results, and
hearing in mind the mikl and
agreeable winters we enjoy, we will
simply ask you to draw your own
conclusions as to the future condi
tions, in reference to this subject,
when the entire district is reclaimed.
In conclusion we may be jar
donetl when we say that, with a
district having a foundation com
posed of good soil, su energetic
irrigation compHiiy that is ready
and willing to do its part, and in
vincible and intelligent Mtllcrs, we
believe not only that here will lie a
dencely populated and exceedingly
prosperous community in the near
future but that 111 commercial im
portance to the state of Oregon, it
will fully equal the famous Wil
lamette vallev above Salem and will
materially add to the wealth snd
population of Portland and other
cities with which it will have future
business relations. .
