It will be remembered that Mr. Ferguson has a hole on his form several feet deep that was once u well but from which all the water disappeared. Re cently he decided to cement the bottom of it and convert it into a cistern to catch the winter rains. When he started to do this he found that a goodly amount of ice had formed in the bottom of the one-time well and is puzzling him and his family to figure out where the water came from that made the ice. Since frost left the ground water has been heard trickling in the bot tom of the well, which leads them to beleive that it is not probahle the ice formed during the winter and has not thawed. No one has yet given a satisfact ory explanation for the phen omenon. But Mr. Ferguson is Land Agent, will visit the site of the Deschutes project, to learn the cost of installing the water Bystem. The general belief is that the new price is too high. and members of the State Board are not prepared to deny that this is a fact. Besides sufficient security does not appear to huve been exacted of the company to guarantee maintenance of the water system until it shall ! turned over to the settlers. The company insists that the new charge is just, because tin original contracts named too low a figure. They aver that cost of labor and material has so advan ced that it is impossible to com plete the projects at $10 un acre. They cite that the Government will not be able to reclaim the land in Klamath for less than $40 an acre. It is answered llutt the Government always spends more on irrigation works than private companies, largely be-; other conveniences is a fine big cause aiming at greater perman- j stone cellur just completed by ency- P.

We can rem ember when the Galloways first apiieared in Colorado when I Buccleaugh hull brought $2000 at the drop of the hat. and once in Pueblo we saw doddy cows running as high as $1100 at the twist of the wrist. But there was a method in the seeming madness of these cater ers to the beef trade. To the uninitiated it looked as if they were paying too much for the whistle. Dut these keen-eyed cattlemen looked further into the merits of the matter as a business proposition than to nag over the price of a bull.
