' VO HELP IRRIGATION.
Tho fajjoriiblo rtporton Iho Pen
i ham Talla reservoir brings up im
mediately thb' question of when" con
struction of tho project will begin,
and this In ftira, tho question as .to
the lmportnnco of irrlgntion In tfcfs
section. Any who Jcnuw tho facta
&xo .convinced or tnat importance
Tnc'lg thing now la to drive tho tn
.Jtorniatlon .home to the congressmen
'and bureau heads In Washington In
whoso hand our Irrigation future
lies. In addition they must realise
that our lands. If Irrigated, will bo
in demand.
1A friend of this scctoln has re-
Gently -written a letter to Represon
"ifatlvo Slnnott setting forth facts iml
"argument as to why Irrigation de
velopment should be undertaken at
lonce a letter so Interesting and
convincing In Its argument that wo
'present It hero In fuH. ' ,
".My dear Mr. SlnuotU
"I am enclosing herewith somo
letters which may bo of Interest to
you because they camo from tho
stato of Oregon and relato to a sub
flject which Is engaging the attoh
ftlon of tho whole country today,
i that Is, with respect to land cultlvn-
!jtioa, and tho demand for land fo cul
tivate. Theso letters camo to mo in
answer to a small advertisement In
serted several times in the classified
advertising columns of Tho Bond
JtBulIetin, offering irrigated land :cr
'rent.
"As you know, nine years ago,
line section of Oregon from which
;theso letters came was one hundred
miles from the nearest railroad sta
tion.- In the fall of 1911 the first
train ran Into Bend, and from that
lime to this present time the people
of Central Oregon have been asking
tho government for aid In the way
of appropriations with which to Ir
rigate the thousands of acres of
land that are not under irrigation,
but that can be Irrigated and for
-which there will be Just as much
demand aathcre Is now for the lit
tle thirty-three acre tract with tho
billions of gallons of -water that are
flowing frbhi the Deschutes river In
to, and down the Columbia to help
Bwell thei Pacific ocean that Japan's
ships may carry freight to and from
the 'western coast of the United
states.
"I left Central Oregon In the fall
of 191Q. The dry farmers at that
time were paying the government
woutd soon have tho waters of he
Deschutes corralled nnd led devloua
ways4 through' the fertile valleyB.
"When I was in Oregon a year ago,
theory farmers were still dry farm
Ingf getting a fairly good crop one
year and falling four -or five, years,
Btlll hoping that tho appropriation
would .bo forthcoming, but tho
.waters btXthe' Deschutes were Mill

tho experts was favorable for the
building of tho reservoir, but tho
funds are lacking because congress
failed to make an appropriation
for Irrigation projects. The owners
of ' land under the Central Oregon

not getting sufficient water for
growing crops when most needed,
and will not get It until the govern
