OTIS CAMPBELL
County Assessor Gilliam county
Oregon.
The Deschutes Rimrock Power
Company has been organized
with $1,000,000 capital for the
purpose of irrigating the im
mense area of semi-arid lands in
the northern part of Gilliam,
Sherman and Morrow Counties, j
It has been given out' by the
Portland papers that 9,000,000
in bonds has been underwritten
by a London syndicate. The
plan is one which has been un
der contemplation for several
years but has never been put
through on account of the lack
of the immense Amount of capi
tal necessary for such a gigantic
enterprise. The plan is to con
struct power plants near the
mouth of the Deschutes River to
be used in supplying necessary
power to pump water out of the
Columbia Kiver near Irrigon in
Morrow county. The company
has options on large tracts of the
land in the sections to be irrigat
ed and this land will be divided
into small plats. Water will
probably be sold to the farmers
of the semi-arid district There
is no small excitement among
the residents of the. northern
part ot the county on account of
these activities and real estate
transfers are many.
The company will - also supply
electricity for power and lights
to Condon, Arlington, Wasco,
Moro, Shaniko and all other
towns m this section of the state
where it is wanted. The farm
ers along the power lines will al
so be supplied if they wish it.
This movement means a great
development for this section of
the state.

While prepi ring lo go to din
ner on Saturday of last week, R.
C. Sheldon of the Globe force,
suffered a severe if not serious
injury to his eyes. Mr. Sheldon
had been using ammonia to cut
the ink and grease from his
hands and kept a bottle of the
concentrated ammonia in the lav
atory. In some unaccountable
manner this bottle had been
placed on the radiator, had be
come heated and when "Bug",
as he is familiarly known, re
moved the cork and the strong
liquid immediately exploded into
his face, burning him severely.
He was immediately taken to the
drug store and the proper reme
diet applied but the liquid, or
fumes, which had gotten into his
eyes, had gotten in its work.
Dr. Wood was called at onee and
has charge of the case. It was
feared at first that the sight of
one eye might be seriously effec
ted but Bug is now getting along
very nicely and it is thought and
hoDed that both eyes will, when
healed be as well as ever.
J. W.Burns and brother Frank
left yesterday for Portland. The
latter will probably attend busi

Tt is in a year like this .has
been, late, cold Bpring and ex
ceptionally dry summer, that the
farmers ought to get together
and compare notes. The best
place to do so is at the Msyville
Fair which starts on Wednesday.
Every farmer ought to bring, or
send some of bis best grain, any
variety, threshed or in sheaf.
Let us get together and find , out
which has done the best, which
kind has given tne best results
in a year like this and what sort
of cultivation it got. If you rais
