Wayne Goin, Pacific Pow er & Light Company’s local manager in Stayton, reported that installations of electric ally-powered sprinkler pumps in the Albany district during the first eight months of 1967 are up six percent in horse power over the same period last year. Through September this year, pumps totaling 1,708 horsepower were installed by farmers in the district, Goin said. During that same time last year only 1,631 horsepower were added. This increase in the num ber of pumps irrigating Al bany district farmland ac counts for 2,780 acres of pre- iously-dry farmland brought under irrigation in 1967 as compared to 2,246 acres in 1966. The growth of irrigation is a widespread trend. The num ber of horsepower added to irrigation facilities in PP&L’s service territories in parts of six states is up thirty per cent over last year, Goin said. During the first eight months of 1966, farm customers in all of PPAL’s service areas in stalled 18.853 horsepower in pumps. Additions to facilit ies in the same period of 1967 accounted for a whopping 24.575 horsepower, Goin not ed. Goin attributed the rapid 'rains in sprinkler irrigation to a growing realization among farmers of the great potential for Increasing pro fits with modern sprinkler irrigation techniques. A simple flip of a switch is all that is needed to match the application of water with the absorbtion rate of a par ticular soil type to eliminate over application of water and wasteful surface run-off and erosion. This important feat ure is possible only with sprinkler irrigation systems. Farmers are also getting the benefits of uniform appli cation of fertilizers by in jecting exact measures of the nutrients into the water system. 3—Hie Mill City Enterprise, Thursday, Nov. 9, 1967 Summer Stream Flow ministered by the State For 91; Douglas, $94,159.94; Col Below 15 Yr.

I I!y Jean Roberts MEHAMA — The bicycle hunter has reappeared at Me hama, after an absence of three years. This hunter ped als all the way from Salem on his bicycle to hunt deer in the North Santiam area. He has been coming here since 1953. For reasons of health he missed coming the past three years. The Barrowcliff boys eager to get a buck got up hours before daylight one morning and drove to a crossing fre quented by deer. Deciding to wait in their car until day light they fell fast asleep and were only awakened by the sun hours later, and too late to hunt. One sportsman, Harold Longfellow, determined to be successful left for a week’s hunt with rifle, shotgun and fishing pole. Stout Creek Lumber Co. suspended operations for one week to allow men time to hunt. Imagine their surprise when they came back to work one morning and discovered two forked horns and a spike standing in the lumber yard. Despite the criticism heap ed upon the game commis sion and their management of game, the usual number of deer is piling up at Gene’s Market here i n Mehama. About 75 deer have been checked in here to date. Many in this area still oppose the "either sex" season and insist that there are no deer any more. However, in 1954 there were only 35 deer checked in at Gene's Market on the op ening weekend and in 1955 on the first weekend of either sex season, there were only six deer checked in. In 1959 there were 100 deer checked in in the entire season. This vear will be about as usual Gene predicts.
