Thoso farmers who hcnrd Prof.
Scuddor discuss dry farming
methods tho oilier evening and
also tell them that our soil, cli
mate and conditions are ideal for
the raising of alfalfa and cereals,
should feel greatly encouraged.
Wo have oven a better country
than wo think and with tho dem
onstration farm will make other
sections sit up nnd tako notice.
Definite information has been
given out that the Harriman peo
ple will build a lino from Twin
Falls in Idaho south to connect
with the main line at Wells, Nev
ada. This shows another stroke
of systematic energy upon tho
part of that great irrigation dis
trict The Twin Falls people are
taking up the irrigation project
over in Malheur and Owyhee,
and Secretary Ballinger lias inti
mated he will give them prefer
ence over the government under
taking in that section.
Intimated that where private
capital and tho government both
desired to build a project in nny
given community, it ia his pur
poso to rccognizo privnto capital,
reserving government funds for
localities whero privnto capital
will not enter.
Wnyman and Test will bo giv
en a hearing at a later day. It
was shown today that privato
cntorpriso contemplates tho irri
gation of a much largor area
than that embraced in tho gov
vcrment project, and will irri
gate 77,000 ncros in Idaho not
embraced in tho Malheur project

Job printing-Tho Times-Herald
'While the weather of tho past
week has not been ideal by any
means it might bo worse. We
do need a rain but the soil is not
dry except on top and the flood
water is keeping a vast amount
of moisture near the surface.
People who read the papers find
weather conditions even worse in
other section and we have still
plenty of time for good growing
weather. Parties here have just
received letters from Kansas and
it seems vegitation here is farth
er advanced than there.
Both Mr. Harriman and the
Oregon Trunk line will be grant
ed right-of-way up the Deschut
es canyon according to newspap
er report of Secretary Bailinger's
decision in the controversy.
Portions of tho way it will be
necessary for both to use one
track. This should put them on
good terms (?) and possibly will
mean that they will parallel each
other throughout all of central
and southeastern Oregon. Such
an arrangement would be quite
satisfactory to the people at
least
DO TUB PEOPLB WANT IT?
In discussing tho recent decis
ion of the Interior Department
relative to tho 69,000 aero Carey
Act segregation in this valley,
Win. Hnnloy expressed more or
less indiffcrenco as to tho finnl
outcome under present condi
tions. He firmly believes it best
to take ndvantngo of the flood
waters of this section but unless
tho land can bo organized and
tho people favorablo to it, he
would not attempt it
Mr. Hanley's proposition
would bo to get nil interested in
a general reclamation project
that would bo adequate and cov
er the largest nrea possible un
der a fcnsible and economical
plan. For instance: A specified
lien for reservoir puropses,1 nu
otchr for drainage and then for
canal construction. Such a plan
would suggest a largo undertak
ing, but the end would testify it.
Such a plan will some day bo
carried out and when a consider
able portion of tho land is yet va
cant it would bo less complicated
now than later as there are less
units to be considered. If such
n'n undertaking could bo launch
ed at once it would advance the
development of this section very
materially and place it even on i
a better footing that many such
projects now being exploited.
There is little question but
such an arrangement would ap
peal to capital and thnt it could
be financed. This is a matter
that should receive earnest con
sideration by those interested.

Every one should do his part
to make his local fair, his state
fair and the Alaska Yukon-Pacific
Exposition a success this year.
Thousands of eastern people will
visit this coast this season for the
purpose of studying our country
and its possibilities. The expo
sition and state and local fairs
will bo their objective points for
getting the desired information
relative to the products of the
country. If our people do their
part and exhibi such samples of
their soil as they can with a little
extra effort these visitors will be
favorably impressed and much
good advertising for the country
will thus be done. Plan for this
now and as you plant your gar
dens, fields and patches do it
with a view to growing some ex
tra good stuff for show purposes.
Plant some of your best seed in
the best ground you have and
give it the best possible care and
you will raise some stuff that will
be a credit to you and your state.

A1ALHEUR IRRIGATION PROJCCT.
A Washington dispatch of re
cent date says: Secretary Ball
inger of the interior department
will visitMalheur county, Oregon,
when he goes west in June, and
on his personal observation and
on the showing to be made to him
before July 1 will determine
whether tho Malheur irrigation
project shall be built by the re
clamation service or by privato
enterprise. This afternoon Sec
retary Ballinger gave a hearing
to Walter Griffiths of Caldwell
and J. W McCulIoch of Ontario,
who Uigcd him to turn this pro
ject over to the reclamation ser
vice, saying that 90 per cent of
the land owners under the old
government project had signed
up ai 1 were ready to pay tho
government price for water. W.
in. xayman anu is, a. Test, rc
piesenting private capital that
want to build this project, were
present at tho hearing, but not
being prepared did not mako
their Bhowing.
Secretary Bailinger's interro
gations indicated an inclination
to turn this project over to pri
vato capital if they can show
that they have the financial back
ing to carry tho project to
completion and can build it at a
reasonable cost, and ho further
The following is a clipping sent
