ohe Hermiston Herali VOLUME XXX NUMBER A MORE THAN 2500 RABBIT KILLED IN HUGE DRIVE SUNDAY SECOND DRIVE SET FEBRUARY 9TH NEAR SLOAN THOMSONS Dead Rabbits Taken for Fox and Hog Feed; First Drive Well Organized. More than 2500 rabbits were herd- ed into a corral last Sunday after- noon at Sarvis Springs by 500 peo ple who gathered from this district and Pendleton to carry on the first rabbit drive conducted in this end of Umatilla county for a number of years. Although the lines were not air-tight and it is estimated that more than a thousand rabbits es caped, organization was fine for the first drive. The slain rabbits were trucked away by parties who wished to use them for fox and hog feed. The second rabbit drive will be conducted near the Sloan Thomson ranch on Butter Creek beginning at 1:30 p. m., Sunday, February 9th. This drive will be handled in about the same way as the one last Sun day, and those who participate are asked to bring a club (no guns allowed) and a cup for coffee which will be served following the comple tion of the drive. Those who do not know how to reach the point of the drive may find the Sloan Thomson ranch by driving up the Butter Creek highway to a point about one half mile above the road leading to Sarvis Springs. Arrows will again be used to indi cate the way. If the snow continues to lay on the ground, conditions for the drive will again be ideal and should re sult in a high percentage of rabbits being killed. Shot Gun Drive Planned. A shot gun drive is being planned for Sunday morning beginning at 10:00 o’clock. Roy Hale of Hermis ton will have charge of the drive and those wishing to take part are re quested to get in touch with Mr. Hale before Saturday evening. Ammu nltion may be purchased through Mr. Hale’s store at wholesale prices. Only older men are allowed to take part in this drive, W. A. Sawyer, as sistant county agent, has announced, and all persons are required to get in touch with Mr. Hale before Sun day morning ad register. The shot gun drive will be con ducted above the Hawley Bean place, bordering on the Umatilla Meadows west of Echo. Wire used in these drives is being purchased by sports organizations and will be permanent property to use from year to year. Arrangements for these drives are being made by Harold Dobyns of the Biological Sur vey department of Pendleton, and W. A. Sawyer, assistant county agent of Hermiston. ADDITIONAL T.OCATS Mrs. L. C.

WALLULA GATEWAY CLUB PREPAIRING RIVER BRIEF FOR ARMY ENGINEERS' HEARING The Wallula Gateway club is now preparing a brief of argument for the Umatilla dam which will be pre sented to the army engineers’ board meeting In Washington some time in April. This brief will be supple mentary to the Robins report on the Umatilla and Snake river dams made last May. after all the surveys were completed during the preceeding months when the army engineers were in this locality. The Robins re port justified the Umatilla dam on an 85 percent basis, which, under the rules of the war department, was figured on tonnage within easy trucking distance of the river a- mounting to only 2,000,000 tons. Further facts have been developed as to greater justification for a power unit which at that time was not cons id ered. Irrigation also has become a more important factor in under the public works program than a year ago, and the Grand Coulee high dam for the development of the Columbia Basin project has been authorized. These and many other features of the plans for ntllizing the Columbia and Snake rivers for navigation, power and ir rigation will be presented to the army board and the state delega tions In Washington and adminis trators of public works and also the president, which will justify the Im mediate construction of the Umatilla dam on a 100 percent basis. Because of the early necessity for OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER the presentation of this argument, the Wallula Gateway club has been formed of members directly inter ested in the project as of immediate local importance and because the Umatilla dam apparently, is not be ing given attention by larger com munities or associations which are also interested In other projects or public works programs. The hearing before the army board has been postponed several times and negotia tions are going on for setting a defi nite date when the new argument can be presented by the Oregon sen ators and congressmen. The board of directors of the club have been selected as follows: E. P. Dodd, president; William Switzler. vice president; Alfred Quiring, sec retary-treasurer; R. G. Penney and H. L. Hedrick of Stanfield: H. M. Sommerer and E. D. Martin of Her miston; William Meiners of Hold- man; F. B. Jones of Wallula; Harry Hull of Umatilla; A. C. Houghton of Irrigon; C. G. Blayden of Boardman: Ralph Saylor of Butter Creek: and C. H. Esselstyn of Echo. A membership fee of 50 cents has ; been set to be used for incidental ex penses connected with the prepara- I tlon of the brief, such as map mak ing. typewriting, stationery, stamps, and telephoning which is estimated will amount to approximately $150, Without support from the different communities the work cannot be completed, it is said. t UMATILLA NEWS + FINE PROSPECTS FOR IRRIGATION IN UMATILLA COUNTY WATER SUPPLY EXPECTED TO FILL STORAGE RESERVOIRS Butter Creek and Willow Creek Still Short : Better Than Normal Condi tions to Assure Water There. By J. M. SPENCER, District Watermaster A survey of snow conditions In the Blue Mountains indicates that there is a good prospect for irriga tion water for the Umatilla river and Walla Walla river areas. The present snow storage at the head of McKay creek should run 48,000 to 50,000 acre feet for McKay reser voir and with normal spring preci pitation probably the reservoir will fill. The Cold Springs reservoir now holds 20,000 acre feet and it will easily fill in the next few months so that the Hermiston district will be well supplied. It is safe to say that all Umatilla areas will receive a good run of water. Butter Creek and Willow Creek are still short and will need better than normal spring precipitation to guarantee a complete coverage. At present the conditions on the lower range are not good and a shortage may be expected. SNOW CONDITIONS Stations Umatilla and Morrow County Mid Winter Late January Meacham, near Union Co. Line.
