COUNTY JUDGE WRITES FOR IN-
I-XMtMATlON ON DKHALF OF
FARMERS UNDER PROPOSED
FINE OROVK DISTRICT
The farmer In the vicinity of l'lnc
Crovc, representing approximately
5.000 acres, havo petitioned for the
establishment ot an Irrigation district
and propose to furnish water for thtlr
Wnds by pumping. The only source
of water supply Is from the govern
ment irrigation canal, and so far they
have been unable to secure any defi
nite promise from the United State
reclamation officials. Before determ
ining on the petition, County Judge
W, 8. Wordea, on behalf of the petl
tlonera,' has written the following let
ter to Director Newell to And out If
the water can bo secured In case the
district la fermed:
"Hon. F. H. Newell, Director U. 8. R.

Ing In vlow the Irrigation of several
thousand acre of land lying to the
north and above the United States
reclamation service main canal, be

"The matter baa been brought be
foro the county court of Klamath
county, and now stands on adjourn
ment for threo weeks, for the pur
pose ot getting certain Information
which appears to be fundamental. It
Is tho purposo ot tho projectors and
proposed water users ot this district
to be organized to depend upon tho
United States reclamation service for
Its water supply, and the only place
that such supply can be had, as far
as I am Informed, la by pumping from
the United Stato reclamation service
main canal.
"The county court ot Klamath
county has no Interest other than an
official one, but at the request ot the
petitioner In this Instance, this let
ter Is addressed to you for the pur
poso of finding out, it possible, wheth
er the United States reclamation ser
vice Vould enter Into contract with
tho petitioners when organized legal
ly into an Irrigation association under
the state law of Oregon.
"I would bo obliged, and It would
be ot the greatest service to the peti
tioners at this time if you would ad
vUo me whether such contract can bf
loude with tho reclamation -vlce.

tho life of the contract?
"Your early response to these in
quiries would be ot tho greatest as
sistance, and would save tho peti
tioners much time and considerable
outlay and expense. Unices It is pos
sible for them to get water at a reas
onable price and under a specified
contract for a certain period, It would
be Impracticable for them to proceed
