HOOD RIVER GLACIER, THURSDAY, JUNE 30, 1904. , FARMERS GOT J , ; PLENTY WATER "The farmers are getting all the wat er uiey applied ior ana there u more in the ditch Kr those who want to buv it.' aid N. C. Evans, secretary of the Far , mera Irrigating Co. While we were aelayedin getting the water out thic During, there it now plenty of water for all everyone is getting the full amount he contracted for and things are work- t jug MuuBiacioniy. "The repairs made last spring cost ' between $13,000 and $14,000. As the repairs were permanent Improvements . in many instances, this , would make these expenditures in the nature of an 1 investment of capital stock. About , $34,000 has been paid out. leaving the company with an indebtedness of $20,- . 000. Some $30,000 worth of stock is yet to le sold. "We are supplying about 1,800 inches of water, and have more to sell at $7 an inch. The board of directors have had a good many complaints from the pa trons because some of them were allowed to go in together and take water for two or three farmers ont of the company's laterals at one point. ' The farmers may do as they please about taking the water out of their own laterals, but it was de cided to put a stop to such practices on ' the company's laterals for the protec tion of the patrons further down the Jine, who would not get their share. ' "Because there Fs plenty of water some of the farmers think they should ... get the surplus ior nothing. The com pany has a big debt on hand and the only resources it has to rely upon is the - sala-al the water. ...,Tlierofur it would be foolish to give the water away., When the ditch is paid for we can talk about free water;- but let- as pay for the ditch first. If the farmers can use more water than they have contracted for there ' is plenty tf It for fale at $7 an inch. The water this year, will cost ,pru. rata just what the maintenance expenses amoun; to. This year it will be about $3 an inch. A great .deal of , the improvement work this spring was done in getting the old ditch down to a level. In one - place;- for a distance of 8,1)00 feet, the bottom of the canal was 23 inches above grade. The flumes were crooked and " required lots of repair work. Last sum mer the old company was selling about 1,200 inches of water and supplying about 800 inches, because the elova-., ' tions in the flume prevented the water' from getting through." The board of directors held a meeting Friday morning and settled some mat- - tors regarding the distribution, of the water through the company's laterals. - Deep Snow fit Lost Lake. Ralph Lewis and a friend of his', Ted . Povey from Portland, weut in to Lost lake last week. Mr. Lewis reports the snow from three to six feet deep on the divide, and says it gets so cold after nightfall that no grass has started about the lake and there is no horse feed there. The boys were forced to get out the same day they went in. ,' f Mr. Lewis Bays the row bout placed on the lake last summer by Kalph Sav age has been staved in by the winter ' snow. The gunwales are smashed in from stem to stern, and repairs will have to be made liefore the boat can be used. This will require some lumber and material to calk the cracked tim bers. The boat had been leaned aaiiiBt a tree, where it remained all winter, and the snow from the tree, possibly, was too much for the light timbers of the canoe. The snow is melting rapidly, and the waters of Hood river are high for this time of year. Fishing is poor because of the high water. The enow will not likely melt from the trail for three weeks or more. , The delegation to Hood River came scattering along back the last of the week mid report a royal good time.- The Hood River people are generous good hosts and threw their Jiomes and straw derry patches wide open to the visitors Among those attending from down this way were:, Mr. and -Mm. Win. Leach, Mr. and Mrs. I. K Weitzel, Mr. and Mis. John Anderson, Col. and Mrs. Haynes, O. C. Thomas, John Forbid, II. F. Gor don, of Forei-t Grove; L. Groendyke, of Dilley; R. W.

Last week the bulk ti the shipments were going to uutte aim Uenver, where the fruit was netting the growers 75c per 10-pound box, eays Wen Kabrick of the Davidson Fruit Co. The Hood River crop is estimated at 2,500 boxes. Mosier raises more cherries thai liood River, and the crop there is of fine qual ity this year.. The Davidson Fruit Co. is handling adout-all the- cherries sent out from either shipping point. K. Locke of Hood River is the only inde pendent shipper. Cherries do well at llood River, and so far uav well. White Salmon farmers have found that cherries are a profitable crop in that locality. A. it. jewetl says he expects to plant his whole farm to cherries. : The crop his not missed a season since he set out his first tree 18 years ago. u. v. oodworth is shipping some fine cherries throuoh the Davidson Fruit Co. from his Belmont ranch. lie packs the fruit in little pound trays, so that they can be lifted out and wrapped up by a grocer as if they were s pound of honev. The cherries are Royal -Anns, and are purfect pictures. Dalles Juniors Win the (iaine, A hot sun beat) down upon a nizzlinir diamond last Saturday while anxious parents and enthusiastic fans watched the Dalles Juniors out-liat the locals to a victory of 12 to 7. The visitors had strengthened their team since tho -week before, and had bunched a trio of heavy batters in a, manner that proved effect ive when scoring was "needed.""
