acres under the North Cannl Unit nnd
some S000 acres now under tho Con-i
tral Oregon Canal, but which It Ib!
planned to eventually Irrlgnto by n
Bpur from tho North Canal.
Protests against tho further oxten
slon of tlmo to tho C. O. I. Co. have
been frnmed by tho Water Users As-j
soclatlon and will undoubtedly bo
