DITCH DETAILS
(Continued from page 1)
These are not paved highways in
any sense of the word but make it
possible for the ditchriders to fol
low the canal, saving many miles
of travel and permitting the ditch-
riders to give more efficient ser
vice. In connection with these
new roads, the water users are re
minded that the ditch right-of-way
must be kept passable at all times
and cattle-crossings will need to
be installed in place of gates on
some farms.
About 2,000 feet of new canal
will be constructed at the north
end of the canal in time for use
this season, eliminating a danger
ous bottle-neck at that point. As
soon as men and equipment are
available, some more work is con
templated at the spillway on the
extreme lower end of the canal.
Water will be turned into the
main canal some time between
March 15th and March 20th and
will be brought as far as Butter
Creek for the present. Prospects
are for about the same amount of
water as usual. There won’t be
any to waste at any time, but with
cooperation and conservative use,
there should be enough for every
one.
Wm. Freeauf will be the head
gate man this year. This is a very
responsible position as the safety
of the entire system depends upon
the constant watchfulness of the
man at the headgate. Mr. Freeauf
is well known in the north end of
the district, having been ditchrid
er two years ago. Rodger Hollo-
mon will be ditchrider on the high
line. Mr. Hollomon needs no in
troduction to the people of West
land, having been a very efficient
and reliable headgate man for the
I past nine years. At the present
time, i no ditchrider has been se-
cured for the north end of the sys-
tern.
Mr. Corliss states that he will
spend almost his entire time on
the 62 miles of canal but that the
office in Dr. Belt’s building in
Hermiston will be open every
Tuesday and that he can be reach
ed at his home almost any even
ing or by calling 2929.
The directors of the district are
Floyd Laird, Ben Conner and Fred
McMurray, and regular meetings
are held in the district office at
8:00 p. m. the Tuesday following
the first Monday in each month.
The next meeting, April 3rd, is the
meeting set by law for the direc
tors to levy the assessment for
1945-46. Anyone interested should
contact the directors before the
meeting or be at the meeting. Any
water user or the Water-Users’
Committee is always welcome at
the directors’ meetings.
To conserve both time and pa
per, this article will take the
place of the annual letter which is
usually sent each water user.
