(Bdltorlat Correspondence) LAIDLAW. Nor. 24 With' flvo months of operation behind It, local people and citizen of tho state at large are specially Interested to know somewhat of tho progress made on Oregon' flrat officially-conducted Ir rigation enterprise, tho Tumalo proj ect. How are the costs working out? That Is apt to be tho first query of a taxpayer, many of whom entertain sneaking suspicions that in tho end, somehow, their pocket books aro go ing to get the worst of this Initial encounter with state reclamation. However, the outlook to dato, is most reassuring. The work is actually costing well under the estimate. For Instance, at the tlmo of making an estimate on the work, the cost was based on wood flumes throughout. During the early part of thla soason, however, on tho advice of tho project engineer, metal flumes were substi tuted for tbo wood flumes, tho cost being something like $15,000 more than tho estimated cost of wood flumes. Evon with this additional cost, the feed canal will still stay under the first estimate. Indeed, raarvolous to relate, there aeemn to bo neither causo for com plaint or actual complaints. About tho only peoplo who eror howl are thoo who are compelled to offer competitive bids for whatever they are to supply the project, In labor or materials; for all purchasing Is on the strictest business Imals unlike most governmental enterprises and the man with the lowest nrloe, nual- ity considered, get the Job. So costs are about as low as they can be. To bo sure, this method Is often hard on tho Central Oregon merchant , who cornea nearer having a Just I "kick" than anyono else, lor tho 1 Portland houses seem to sell to tho I project at lower tlgures than thoy ' will to the merchant himself, so that little or no money Is spent "at home. However, tho project engineer sim ply says that ho was told to put tho job through as economically as pos sible, and ho assuredly appears to bo following instructions. F.ven Kettlera Satisfied.
