What is the Advantage of Irrigating
With Electric Pumps ?
Now, Where is the hitch ?
[tlOW get together with your
neighbors und form a par­
ty line and thus divide up the
expense Among yourselves for
Electric Power, Electric Light
and Telephones.
Now here is where we SHINE.
FIRST-The price is cheaper; the average cost per acre for the season with an Electric Pump
is $1.25 per acre for water.
SECOND— You pay No B onus .
THIRD—You do not have to mortgage your land forever.
FOURTH—You do not convert your land into a swamp as with a ditch; you thus avoid Malaria,
Mosquitoes and all the attendant evils.
FIFTH-You can get your water when you want it and where you want IT; you do not
have to wait your turn and quarrel with your neighbors.
SIXTH-You do not have to enter into any contract for any stated period; if pump irrigation
does not suit you, you can quit; the only guarantee ^hat you give is that you will |«y your propor
tion of the cost of the line and THIS MONEY YOU GET back in power or light; in other words you
simply guarantee your good faith .
SEVENTH ¥ou can use Electric Power to Saw Wood. Grind Feed. Chum Butter. Separate
Cream, do the Washing and Ironing, Cooking and Heating; keep yourself cool in summer with
Electric Fans; it drives away the flies, purifies the air, runs the Sewing Machine ami numerous
other uses of which not the least is to have your wife and family rise up and bless you for the com­
fort and ease thus afforded.
EIGHTH-You can use the Electric Hot Water Bottle or Pad, one of the greatest and most
beneficial discoveries of the twentieth century; affords dry and continuous hint, warms the bed;
prevents cold feet; is of the greatest benefit for pain. Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Pneumonia. Bron­
chitis, Coughs, Colds, Cmsumption, Croup. Whooping Cough and pain in any |>art of the Imdy
NINTH-You can use Electric Light; as the Sun (which is concentrated Electricity) dispels
the fog. dampness, disease, and Gives Life Itself to all the Human Race and the Animal and Vege­
table Kingdoms, so the Electric Light at night performs the same Life-Giving Functions in a milder
form.

IRRIGATION
CENTRAL POINT, ORE., March 20, 1906.
CONDOR WATER & POWER CO., TOLO, OREGON.
G E N T L E M E N :—I th o u g h t it m ight be of some interest to you to give *ome kind of
a statem ent as to w hat I th o u g h t of your Centrifugal Pump, operated by Electric Motor,
purcbaedC from you last May.
How it works and how It suit* me :
The Electric Motor I use 1» a tire-borse-power belted direct to a three tnch Centrifugal
Pump.
T h is pump will give from 300 toM0 gallons per minute, depending on the lift.
A 3 hoMe-power motor, however, would run this pump and give th e same am ount of water.
On one part of my place I had to force water 480 feet on a grade of 12 to 13 feet; 20 feet
from well, through a 4-inch pipe. I got from 350 to 4o0 gallons per minute.
This elevation I speak of is above the pump.
I could pump M0 gallons per m inute from my well, day and nig h t all seaeori up to Nov. 1.
T his was the last pumping I did In order to wet the ground so I could dig my trees.
My well is 10 feet deep, six feet wide and 12 feet long, with no tunnels.
I estimate t h a t I can Irrigate 120 acres of ground with my pump.
Now, as to th a working of the electric pump and motor, neither have given me a n y
I could s ta r t the motor running rn Monday morning and It would be running .Saturday
night, if some one would not call aroend and stop It.
Now, Altogether !

My motor ran the sr*. n th o ugh with nly one oiling, b u t I oiled th e pump every
morning when I started the motor, which I* all there la to look after.
I t gave tin- leant — l i i f any Machinery I <>»er used.
Now, as to what I arcirrnpllsh. d with w a te r -1 more than tr ebled T he YIELD of corn
AND I DOUBLED TH E A PPl.g , „ o r .
1 had no alfalfa to ea te r and was not prepared to get water to our garden, b u t I raised
a due crop of beete on ground th a t, without water, would not have grown anything.
As to Sweet Corn, auk J. W. Merritt.
I t was THK LARGEST CORN I EVER SAW , AND I HAVE RAISED CORN TV IOWA AND ON TH E
MISSOURI RIVER BOTTOM.
I am going to grow Home more th is year. Call arid see It.
I used water on my xetdlloff* for nursery stock and I am well pleased with th e results.
I grew 150,(Mid seedling, that, without water, I could not have grown, and as a result
have 125,000 pears budded and grafted and 25,000 apples to say no th in g of th e benelit In
oth e r ways.
T h -• Electric Pump U the thing.
Yoa can have the water where you w ant It and when you w a n t It, w hich 1» th e essen­
tial thing.
My children could »tart and stop the motor and oil th e pumn.
I consider th a t there is no more danger In a motor th a n machinery with cog wheels,
and not as much for children.
Inclose, will say that I am well pleased with the motor and pomp, and well pleased
with the way you people have treated me.
Hoping you succe*«, I am very truly yours,
J. S. BARNETT.
