sible on account of cent being pro
hibitive, can be reclaimed and made
extremely productive and valuable.
It is the irrigationlHt onder thin
method of whom we have the niost
to fear. He ia absolute matter of the
situation. He owns his plant, can
operate tt when he sees fit and is not
subject to even caution or soKgestiou
from any company from whom water
is purchased. " """"
The wind being a fickle jade, we
have long ago eliminated it as, a j
factor in producing power for pomp- j
ing purpose!), so the expense involved 1
in wood, coal, gasoline, oil or other I
fuel may check him to a great extent
in operating his plant, but we have
in our midst, and easy of access, a
new factor to reckon with, to-wit:
Electricity, which can be applied
at our wills, in addition to irrigating
onr lands, to ministering to our com
fort and happiness, at a oost, that
according to facts and figures are
minimum. What does the possessor of
a pump purpose doing? Start his ma
chine in operation let it run night
and day, flooding hi land until ruin
ed? Or will he exercise judgment
deliver hi water ioto a reservoir,
tank, box, flume or other raceptaole
aodal'o it to remain there for use
when needed, thereby properly ex
emplifying the correct definition of
irrigation, namely Insure having
water when needed. Experience has
proven that the only mistake the ir
rigator can make under this system
is that of the size of the plant or
pomp required to irrigate a tract
comprising more than 10 oi 15 acres
and that he can very easily over
come by applying for costs and size of
plant required for any given number
of acre from any office or officer of
an electric company operating in or
near his section. By pursnlng some
such policy be is not required to in
vest in a large or expensive plant
capable of discharging enough water
to flood all his land at one time and
can accomplish the proper irrigation
of Jbis land at minimum oost. he
further gets the benefit of every gal
lon of water his pomp delivers, a no
seepage takes place between pump and
where he wants to nse water. He in
sures himself against ruining his crops,
against excessive flooding and he ir
rigates his land a-i it should be irri
gated, thereby insuring, if properly
cultivated, the raising of a better
crop, both a to qoalitr and quantity,
than tjiough he pursued the slip shod
methods of using water simply be
cause he bad it to use.
As to electricity in tins valley of
ours being the most economical and
the must practicable owiug to a large
ana well managed oompanv now in
our midst extending throughout the
lougth of our valley and reaching out
in different directions as fast as pos
sible, the following facts will show.
To irrigate in the above mentioned
successful mauuer, let as take 24 acres
as ao average farm. This would re

punip at a total cost of $183. This
outfit will oost to run per irrigation
season of four mouths. I'lO. Th
pump working front suurite to innset
will throw approximately 18,000 gal
lons of water to a height of 40 feet,
or more to a leas height. Now. ao
cording to all known facts aod the
jtestimouy of experts, an acre of
Krouud doe not require 6000 gallons
of water to irrigate it successfully
for a period of eight days, so it can
readily be seen that this tmall nia-
ichlue can very easllv Irrigate thrm.

In the short time the Condor Water
and Power Company have had plauts
installed in Medford and other places,
the results have Wu exceedingly
gratifying and we fuel safe in saying
that .he following gentlemen, Joseph
C. Calhoun, II. V. Doxsee, E. E.
Cargill, Virgil 8. Grout, W. J. Stor
gess, Adolphus Nale, George O'Brien,
all situated on the north end of Tenth
Street near the city of Orauts Pas
proper, who subscribed to have a
party line built at a cost' of $700
and pumps
and motors inHtalled at
additional expense, will obtain results
mora gratifying to relate thaii our
neighbors situated in the lower end of
the valley.
Now, yoc folks of the fields and
the gardens, get together, act and act
at once, double yoor crops in quantity
aud quality, and thereby quadruple
your inooma We, the residents,
citizen and business men of Grants
Pass, Medford, Jacksonville aud the
other towns in the Valley, are deter
mined to make tbla Rogue River Val
ley a regular Garden of Eden and the
most desirable spot in the oountry.
We are' determined to increase Ithe
prosperity of all, and we depend on
your co-operation as well as our own
efforts. Let ns unite and stay united,
so that there . will be no possible
chance of ns falling, through a divis
ion, aud the beet way we can do so is
by yon holding np your end of it.
Look into these matters of irriga
tion, study them carefully and apply
them.
The writer ia far from knowing it
all, but he bas studied and observed
methods in various lands and seeing
is believing. There ia no better in
structor, in this matter, than the eye,
and where we now see tracts of fer
tile land going to wast and loss
for lack of water, let ns hope we will
soon see them in bloom and a source
of profit in the near future.

SPRING CATARRH
R-oturmund Sella Hyomei Under
Guarantee of Cure.
The changeable weather of Spring is
directly regiwnsible for the prevalence
of catarrhal troubles in Grant Pass at
the present time.
As a result, Rotermuod has had a
larger sale for Hyomei the past week
than ever before in the years that be
has handled this reliable treatment
for the cure of catarrh.
Unlike the ordinary remedies that
have been used in catarrhal troubles,
there isno stomach dosing with Hyo
mei. It is breathed through a neat
pocket inhaler that oomes with every
outfit and its balsamic, antiseptic
healing penetrates to the most remote
cells of the nose, throat and lungs,
killing all catarrhal germs, healing
the irritated mucous membrane, and
effecting a complete and permanent
oure.
If there is a single catarrhal genu
in the system, Hyomei will search it
out and absolutely destroy it, com
pletely eradicating the trouble. Tbe
remedy has made so many cures among
Rotermuod's customers that he offers
to pay for it himself if it does not
benefit even the worst case of catarrh.
The complete outfit costs only $1,
consisting of an inhaler, medicine
dropper and bottle of Hyomei, while
extra bottles of Hyomei can be ob
tamed for 60 cents. There will not
be even this small exp-juse If Hoymei
doe not oure, as ltotermund will re'
turn your money.
