Irrigation.
A Cnroy Act Irrigation segregation
ombraclng approximately 300,000
acres, Ilea to tho east and north of
Ilond. This land Is watered under
tho aupervlslon of tho Stnto of Ore
con, and becomes the property of
sotllera who acqulro It by residence
and Improvement, paying from lf
to $40 an acre for wator service,
with an annual malntenanco charge
ot 30 to 80 cents an acre, the lowest
maintenance rata In operation.
Non-lrrlgable acreage Is purchssed
at $2.50 an acre.
Directly adjoining Ilend are two
other irrigation enterprises, both
conductod on a farmers' co-oneratlvo
basis, and both exceedingly prosper
ous. On tho Irrigated-lands all tho pro
ducts of tho temporato xone proBpor.
Tho soil und climate, however, are
particularly ndaptod to tho success
ful production of grasses and root
crops. Alfalfa, clovor, grain, pota
toes nnd other root crops. Includlug
sugar hoots, do romnrknbly woll,
Tho yield ot butter fat from tho
grasses is exceptionally groat, and
this, combined with tho pure soft
wator, nnd tho lack of oxccsslvo hont
and cold, dostlnos this torrltory to
tako tho front rank as a dairy
country. Tho establishment of a
largo creamory at Iloud, and tho aid
given farmers In aocurlng fine cowa
by tho local banka, moans that a man
with forty acros who will raise grass
and food It to his cowa will be as
surod of n comfortablo living.
Work Is now In progress upon a
groat new Irrigation canal, known aa
the North Canal, which will Irrigate
soma 50,000 acres, ot land, The
canal gets its water from tho Des
chutes, Dry Fnrmlnjr.
Tributary to Ilend on the south
east la a huge dry farming aroa, em
bracing more than 260,000 acres of
lavol nnd rolling sago brush land,
with (loop soil, no trees and rocks,
nml with woll water obtalnablo nt
inodornto depths.
Much of this territory hns boon
nettled by homesteaders during tho
last year, nnd many fnmlllos nre
dally taking ndvntitugo of this Inst
big cliuco to got frvo Government
land. Tho majority of tho ucrongo
Is open to homostendlng under the
320 noro Inw, which allows tho free
acquisition of that amount In return
fur residence nnd proportional annual
cultivation nnd Improvement. Tho
homestead laws nro being made
easier nod moro attractive, with the
result that more nnd moro settlors
come to Ilend nnd mnko homes on
this lnnd tributary to tho town.
Ootid roads extend through this
country, nnd dally auto nnd singe
lines tsp It from Ilond, to which Its
products will come on down grnde
(inula to bo nilllod with tho Inex-
hnustlblo water power of tho Des
chutes Itlver Immediately below
Ilond, whore n darn Is bolng con
structed nt n cost of nbout $60,000.
Thu work In connection with this
summer1 development of the new
canal will require nit expenditure
of $17t, 000. All of this money will
bo spent oloso to Iteiid. Tho entire
system will require approximately
$700,000 to complete.
Timber.
Tributary to Ilend. on down grade
hnuls, Is 20,000,000,000 feet or tho
finest yellow plno timber. Besides
providing tho cheap power for tho
milling of this enormous timber bolt.
Ilend offers tho best ot mill pond
facilities.
Tho manufacture of this timber
nt Ilond Is n cortulnty, for tho largest
of tho companies Interested nre
heavy property ownprs in Ilend lands
and wnterpowor developments, and
havo slgninod their Intention of lo
cating their big mills here.
At present thdro aro sovcrn)
smaller mills,, employing In tho
neighborhood of ISO mon. Whllo
these manufacture lumber primarily
for locnl consumption, not only nro
many carloads exported to tho towns
north of Ilond, but nlso many aro
shipped to the mlddlo western mar
kets, which later wilt bo supplied
hcuvlly with tho Ilend lumber pro
ducts. Water Power
Thoro Is nt least 250.000 horse
power onslly obtainable from the
Deschutes nt and near Ilend.
Already a 1700 horsepower plant
Is in operation In tho town, which
offora ns cheap electric power for
domestic and manufacturing uses aa
la obtalnablo in tho Northwest. The
Inoxhnustlblo and cheap power at
her doors guarantees fiend's oxton
slvo manufacturing future.

Tho man who cornea to Ilond or
the adjacent sections of Contral Ore
gon will bo agreoably aurprlsod at
the plonsant aurroundlngs ho will
encountor, both In what nature haa
supplied and in social matters.
For Instance, a University Club

Canoeing nnd boating directly at

Ry P. II. SPILLMAN
(Asst. BtipU Demonstration Farms.)
Ono ot the first things to do when
considering tho selection of speci
mens for exhibition purposes Is to
secure a premium list and determine
In what classes you wish to exhibit.
If you hnvo already made your se
lection of material, study your pre
mium list very carefully and dotor
mlno In what class your exhibits will
stand the best opportunity of winning
a place. Kntry of specimens In tho
wrong class often prevents tho win
ning of a premium which otherwlso
might bo secured If properly entered.
No matter what your exhibit con
sist of, put It up in as neat a manner
as possible Try to make your dis
play attractive. If you hare grains
or grasses, put them Into neat
bundles, strip oft" all loose leaves that
tond to make It look ragged, cut off
tho stems so as to make a nest
squnro butt. Try to havo only ono
vnrlety In a bundle and ordinarily
but ono bundle of a variety. Take,
rcprosentativo specimens of a
variety.
With potatoes, take stndoth, clean
specimens, handle carefully and If
exhibiting In crates, mako them as
attractlvo as possible Put up a
business pack. With apples, try to
secure perfect specimens. Always
try to keep from pulling out the
stems; If, however, they aro missing,
don't try to put In artificial ones.
Tho moro highly colored, tho bettor.
In short, one may say: Handlo alt
your exhibits as carefully as though
they were eggs. Have them clean
and free from blemishes and bruises.
Put them np as attractively as pos
sible. Name them correctly and try
to have tnem entered at tho fair on
time.
