ors In tho surrounding country nro
urged to attend.
According to Mr. Bradley, who Is
the spokesman for tho enterprise,
their attention was called to the pos
albUUtea of Central Oregon n( a
starch producing country by reports
of an expert of the t'nlted States De
partment of Agriculture who has
hoon studying the potato starch In
dustry for Uie past three years. This
expert. Dr. C. C. Moore, has found
that Central Orogon potatoes have a
higher March content than thoee
from any other section, and It Is
therefore desired to leoato a faotory
here.
Such a plant as Is planned would
use the cull product from 10.060 to
12.000 acres and would Insure to tho
growers a minimum price of $.S0
per ton. If desired, the .starch com
pany would aet as commission agent
for the salo of all merchantable po
tatoes, sorting these out from the
etareh slock.
Figures nro Olvcn.
Tho plans of the promotors call
for a faotory site covering about Ave
acres, Ktaroh maklNg to be begun by
September IS. Tho factory would bo
In operation for about 280 days and
would have a total dally pay roll of
5168. Its dally consumption would
be 100 tons of potatoes and Us starch
output about 20 tons. By products
would bo a stock food, potato llako
and glucose. Its cost, including ma
chinery to bo Imported from Ger
many, wboro starch making from po
tatoes Is in an advanced stage, is es
timated by Mr. llradley at about
$60,000.
To finance the proposition stock to
tho amount of $20,000 would have to
bo subscribed for in the neighborhood
where the factory was located, tho
promotors putting up $20,000 and
leaving $10,000 of a $50,000 capit
alization ln tho treasury for later
needs.
Mr. Bradley and Dr. Hamol have
Visited other towns In the Deschutes
valley and explained the proposition,
la many cases getting acreago con
tracted to supply tho factory lu caso
It Is built. In tho different towns
via! tod sites for the factory havo
been considered but none have been
found desirable because of tho lack
of water. When In operation a starch
jeot. On motion of C. S. Hudson It
was voted that a resolution of thanks
bo sent to the various individuals
who lmd worked for the passage of
the IrrtfHtlon appropriations before
the iMtmt legislature.
In accordance with the vote of the
club Manager I)e Armond ha pro

of nitrates, potassium, sodium eaio

sodas, baking and bleaching powders

from the lake deposits. The same

out the ideas for the pipelines.
In addition to the manufaeture of

Without question the project made

Mr. Moore and Mr Sheppard declare
that the plant will be the Inrgrtf or

bis syndicate will omploy between
3S00 and 8000 men continually.
By the torms or the lease Mr.
Moore guarantees tho state annual
royalties of at least $J5.000. Mr.
Sheppard said yesterday that if tho

amount. It wns at this time that
the effort was made to revive Hie
Oiegfin bill first proposed to match n
reclamation allotment offered by Mr.
I .sue.
This had failed In Ha first pur
pose and, as stated above, lost again
on the second attempt t.i match It
against the Congressional appropria
tion. Although Secretary I.atio had con
ditioned his recommendation on an
appropriation by Oregon which was
not forthcoming, when the Sundry
Civil Hill appeared In the Senate Sen
ator Chamberlain was tmocexufnl In
getting attached to It an amendment
providing $460,000 for th North
eaiial without any strings whatever
and the bill has now gone to confer
ence, in vit)w of the fact that among
the conferees nro men who opposed
tho amendment In both houses It Is
believed doubtful If it will be round
In the final bill.
Tho latest report from Washing
ton on tho subject Is na follows:
"Oregon's hopes for a $150,000
appropriation for reclamation Het,
