IRRIGATION PROJECT ON

The Ken o Journal of the 12th Inst,
says that tbe Overland Nanking &

ou a big irrigation proposition west
of Paisley by which it Is claimed 2.".-
000 acres of the very best lands in
Lake County will be reclaimed and
to this eud have already interested
a uuutier of Kiistersn parties In the
project.
The waters for the project are se
cured from the middle fork of Hpragu
juver, ana nn tills stream there is
a rail of 000 feet In' leas than four
miles.
Tbe road when completed will place
New Piue Creek at least 'JO miles near
er to the Waruer Lake valley. It will
alsoeborteu the distance now traveled
by Lakeview or Pine Creek people to
liidwell at least niue mlies, and will
give them a much better road. I
it will do a good deal for both Lake-,
view and New Piue Creek, aa it will 1
make these points tributary to tbe
camps, bring f to (5 miles nearer than
liidwell, from which point at present
all auppliea are drawn, a fact that
will be pleasing to our business men.
Mr. McCieary ia very earnest as to
tbe future of that district, and says
so soon as outside people learu its :
real greatueas and richness tnat tbe
camp will go forward with a bound, j
At piesnnt only local capital is invest-1

There is some ta'k among the farm

Oue farmer was ill Saturday from the
West Side, aud says be could provide
cream from 10 or 1'2 cows and others
from 0 to 10 or inorrt, iu bis vicinity.
If other localities did as well, a good
business could be worked up here.
The cost of a good complete creamery
ueed not exceed 95000, which of
course could be enlarged as necessity

With practically the same expense,
tbe Creamery can handle twice tbe

Tbe Examiner believes that a vast
acreage of land in Lake County is
capable of growing wheat, and
especially so if tbe ground is once
flooded witb water.
Owing to tbe fact that tbe area of
free government land is each year
becoming scarcer and more restricted
and of a pour quality, tbe time
is not far dhtcnt ttn every
acre that can be tided or plowed will,
be put under cultivation. Wbat are
known as eage-brneb lands bere will
yet be made to produce wheat, and a
case in illustrtion mentioned by tbe
Pendleton East Qregoman of recent
date which says:
A story that reads like a romance
or tbe world of finance is contined
in the febeat crop being harvested
this year by W. P. Temple of tbia
city. With a yield of 70,000 bushels
on WJ05 acres of land owned indivi
dually by him, Mr. Temple may be
justly termed tbe wheat king of -Umatilla
county and one of tba
wheat klhcs of Oregon.
Mr. Temple teturued this morning
from an inspection of bis crop which
is being harvested in tbe northwest
part of tbe country, and in spite of
tbe fact that no rain has fallen since
last April, the .average income from
bis 2C50 acea for 1908 will be 920.77 -per
acre, while tbe average for the
past 10 years has been but 918 per
acre, .
All of Mr. Temple's crop oas been
so d. Ten thousand bushels waa sold
at 75 cents several weeks ago, and thsf
remainder bas been sold tbis week
at 80 and 81 cents per bushel, and
his U crop ii now in the bank.
Ou 2150 acres Mr. Temple is thresh
ing 04,000 bushels of wheat, and on
200 acres be will thresh 000 bushels
of barley, making a total of 70,000
bushels 'roni 2660 acres, or au average
of 2(i.5 bushels per acre.
This immense crop bas been raised
on land which was once considered
worthless, and at one time Mr. Tem
ple's father wanted to have him ex
amined fox insanity when be boirowed
920,000 from Pe nutlet on rjauks to buy
land adjoining bis original bomestead

But tbe result of bis farming in
that section of tbe country bas amply
justified bis early judgment and he

blocks of farm jug land owneu by any
individual in Eastern Oregon.

Mr. Temple nowt owns the land on
which he dii his first dava work in

was but a boy. ; This tract of land

WOOL BRINGS BETTER
PRICE. IN MONTANA THAN AT HOME
A despatch from Baker, Mont, a new
atatiou oa tbe Chicago, Milwaukee &
St Paul railroad in tbe easteru part of
the state, says that tbe moat . of tbe
wool dip waa abort. Sales were held at
that place last Friday and Saturday,
when over 1 000,000 pounds of wool
sold at au average of 18 cents, tbe
highest average of tbe eutlre North
west for the seaon.'
About one half of tbe sheep ' from
bich this wool clip was shorn bad
been shipped to Forsytbe aud to the
Montua ranges tbia season,' and were
shorn there, making- practically half
of tbe 1,000,000 pounds sold, Oregon
wool. ' . . ','
Tbe same grade of wool was sold In
Easteru Oregon tbia spring and- sum
mer from 11 to 13 cents, or from bto
7 cents lower than tbe Moutaua price.
The Oregon sheep were not washed
before being shorp; but bad all of the
Oregon sand in their - wool, thus dis
pelling tbe claim , that higher prices
in Montana ure the result of cleaner
and lighter floeces.
