IGREAT STREET
MFROVE
ENT
NOW POSSIBLE
Residence District To Get
Attention, Says Gould
WORK IS UNDER WAY
ltd lew of At'romp!lr.limcntM of Ail
jnlniiilratloii (Jit en lly lime At
Club Luncheon Curlou I
Speaker On Clriimi Work
Ilund'a flrnt opportunity to have
really well kept streets has come,
was tho declaration of it. IJ. Mould,
city engineer, at Wednesday's Com
mcrclnl club luncheon. Tho city bud
got allows a larger fund for street
maintenance than havo previous bud
gets, and at tho samo time tho no
ceaslty for upkeep on tho downtown
streets has decreased, leaving a larg
or part of tha appropriation to bo
devoted to improving tho residence
streets.
At this time of year, said Gould,
$100 will grade more than a mile
of street. Graveling would cost $1,
200, or cindering $900, against 30,
000 for paving. He urged that these
figures be taken into consideration
in planning street work. Work done
now Is many times as effective and
much cheaper than work dono later
In Uio year, he declared.
TclN of Work !mo
A review of what has been dono
by tho present administration In tho
way of street Improvements was pre
sented to J. S. lnnes, chairman ot
tho streets committee ot the coun
cil. Ho also expressed a hope that
more may bo accomplished during
tho coming year, particularly urging
tho desirability of eliminating tho
double curve In the approach to Tho
Dulles-California highway, from Vel
lum's store south. According to
Gould, the cutoff can ho built at lit
tle expense, and to nobody's Injury
Sevonteen blocks of streets havo
been newly built during I lines' term
ns head of tho committee, ho stated;
Lava Koad from Franklin to Georgia,
Stiemoro from Vranklln to Delaware,
Georgia from Lava Itoad to Iiond,
Kansas from Congress to tho city
park line. A fill has been ma do on
liroadway and Tumnlo avenuo haa
been gravelled for a block and a
half.
Employment Given
Most ot this work wna dono at a
tlmo when Idle married men who
aru taxpayers could bo supplied with
employment which they needed bad
ly, said Inncs. Hcsldents lu some
cases contributed over half of tho
cost.
Approaches to all of tho principal
highways arb "now being graded and
cindered or gravelled, said Inncs;
Greonwood, Scott, Division and
Third. Ills remarks wero illustrated
by photographs ot Slsemoro and
Lava Hond, "beforo and after,"
which wero passed around the tables.
J. Clark Rhodes, who acted as
chairman, and who was formerly
head of tho streets committee, intro
duced Inncs by complimenting him
on tho work accomplished.
Tom Carlon, firo chief and ox-ot-flclo
cleanup officer, gavo an Inter
esting talk on tho value of tho clean
up work, using statistics in regard
to files and their rato of multipli
cation. Ninety per cont of the an
nual crop ot files could bo prevented
If strict cleanliness wero observed,
he asserted.
Improvement N'cilol
Civic prlda Is tho thing necessary
to Insuro cleanliness, said Carlon.
Ho pointed out many savings along
other lines than that ot health, which
would result from cleanup ottorts,
Demi's health has been greatly Im
proved by Corlon's work of tho past
two years, Uhodos doclarcd In Intro
ducing tho speaker. Ono rosult last
summer wus that uo children died
of tho annual "summer complaint,"
whoro thfro had boon two or three
deaths each summer previously.

ASK WATER FOR
ARNOLD LANDS
Would Irrigate 20,000 Acres
More; Extension of Ditch
Asked By Settlers.
Twenty thousand arid acres In tho
Arnold district will be watered from
tho Deschutes river if tho applica
tion which has been filed by the dis
trict Is allowed, it was stated Tues
day by L. D. Welst, engineer for tho
Arnold Ditch Company.
Still further development in tho
Arnold territory is foreseen, In case
water rights can be sectored, In the
application of settlers beyond the
present district, toward Powell
Iluttc, who are asking an extension
of the Arnold ditch. This is not
being done by the company, but with
the company's sanction, according to
Welst.
Water was turned into tho ditch
this week, but It was found Im
practicable to use It until more of

around tho gates, which have been
forced out ot place by the frepzing
ot the banks.
