North Bend Enthusiastic for Fair

North Bend, Jan. 30-Great eatisfac-
ton is expressed here at the passage Of
the bill at Salem appropriating $780,
coo for the Lewis and Clark Exposition
at Portland in 1905. While Portland
and vicinity will gather greater benefit
from the Exposition than any other city
and section Of the state, she will not
receive it all, for the light of progress
will reflect its rays to the most remote
part of the state. What we need mostly
is progressive, energetic class # i'm.

263,2 acres cost $64 ,2S9 ,601, an
average of 1886 per acre. At this rate
the expenditure required to reclaim the |
area would be at least $3.50 900 900.

The Columbia River Development
! Company, which has been boring for
oil on the Washington side of the
Columbia River. opposite Castle Rock
for the past six weeks, struck a flowing
we'll OF aitesian water last Thursday at
depth Of 167 feet. The we'll casing is
938 inches in diameter. The spoutlng
water rose to height of 3 feet above
the large casing, and when this is re.
duced to a diameter Of, inches, it will
rise to 10 feet. The top, of the casing is
l5 feet above the surrounding country,
50 the well is bound to be of great vaue
for irrigation purposes. Double crews
are at work night and day boring down
AS rapidly as possible. This discovery
has raised quite stir in that section, as
water fer irrigation was much needed
in that sandy country. Many pieces of
school land have been bought up; in
fact, all the vacant land within eight
miles of the well has been taken up.
Within the past 10 days three surveyors
have been kept busy surveying claims.
There is considerable gas escaping with
the water. 1t burns when a match is
touched to it, and it is naturally sup
posed that there Is oil not far away.
1t is supposed that artesian water can
be struck at the same depth on the
Oregon side of the river, where there is
a large scope of sandy country, which
is now practically a desert AS the soil
is good and free from rocks, and can all |

BENEFITS OF IRRIGATION.
Forty Million Acres in the West
May be Reclaimed.

Washington, Jan. 3l.-The accept.
ance by Congress of the principle of
federal aid in the construction of irri-
CATION works in the Western states, has
given great impetus to every industry
in that section of the country. The
people Of the Eastern states are lust
beginning to realize the opportunities
offered in the territory to be opened up
AS the proposition develops, tide of
immigration will inevitably set in and
this region will become one of the most
populous and prosperous in the country
With large areas of rec'aimabe land
and plenty of available water, Oregon
especially will be benefited by the
m aasure.
The actual work of surveying, To-
c,ting and constructing reservoirs and
other irrigation works will be done by
the geological survey. In order to
obtain better understanding of the
present extent of irrigation, the location
of the areas irrigated, and to gain other
Information useful in this work, the
Fiftyseventh Congress authorized by
the director of the census to bring down
to date the irrigation statistics obtained
in 1900 by that office. Letters of in.
qnry and schedules are now being sent
ont to secure the necessary information.
All interested in irrigation should
answer as fully and as promptly as
possible any inquiries they may re.
ceive so that the merits of the various
sections of the country may become
know. Irrigators who do not receive
blanks within a reasonable time should
n )tify the census office at Washinetcn n
