the aupervlalon of tho State ot Ore

settlers who acquire It by residence
and Improvement, paying from $15

with an annual maintenance charge
or 30 to 80;cthU"au'aoro, tie-lowest

Non-lrrlgable acreage la purchased
at $1,50 an arre.
Directly adjoining Bend are two
other Irrigation entorprlsea, both

bails, and both exceedingly prosper
ous. On tho Irrigated lands all tho pro
ducts ot tho tomperato xono prosper.
Tho boII and climate, however, aro

coat la a huge dry farming area, em
bracing more than 260,000 acros of
lovel and rolling eage brush land,
with deep soil, no trees and rocks,
nnd with well water obtainable at
moderato depths.
Much ot this territory has boon
settled by homesteaders during tho
last year, and many famJllea aro
dally taking adrantago of thla last
big chnco to get froe Qovernmnt
land. The majority ot tho acreage
la opon to homcstcadlng under tho
320 aero law, which allows, tho frco
acquisition of that amount In return
for residence and proportional annual
cultivation and Improvomont The
homestead laws are being mado
easier and ruoro attractive with tho
result that mora and mora settlers
como to Bend and mako homes on
thla land tributary to tho town.

Tho work In connection with thla
auuimer's development of the now

bo spent cloao to Bond. Tho entire
system wilt requlro approximately
$700,000 to complete.

At present thero are several

Already a 1700 horsopowcr plant
