"A law suit over water rights has
ber of years." said w. 1. Stewart of
to the East Oregonian today.
''TTe Feacock Flour Milling Co,
was among the pioneer water users
of that vicinity and since their prop
erty has become one OF the most val
liable in the city, land owners have
settled all about them and the water
rights of the community are in a cha
otic state.
"a decree from the courts will
place every man on firm and es-
tablshed basis and the outcome will
be beneficial to the community in
general because every one will know
exactly what he owns and can depend
upon it after the title to the water in
the Walla Walla and Tum-a-lum riv-
ers is once fixed. AS it is now no
one is sure of his rights and every
man tries to use all the water he can
get The rights of each man should
be fixed and title to water given
with each deed to land"
Mr.. Stewart in speaking of the irri-
CATION possibilities of the Milton
Freewater district says that many
tracts of land can be made to pro-
duce crops with much less water than
is at present used. In parts of the
district he has produced berry and
alfalfa crops with about two inches
! per acre, while other land owners
claim it requires six inches to pro-
duce a crop on the same kind of soil
! He hopes to see a cannery estab-
| lished there this season as nearly &
million pounds of fruit goes to waste
there every year because of lack o
| facilities to care for the inferior
grades not fit for shipping. Thi!
fruit is of the best possible variet!
and is healthy and sound but is small
and there is no place in the market
for it, 1t could be canned or mad
into vinegar and cider at grea
profit
Mr.. Stewart also says the qualit
and class of fruit is also rapidly i'm
proving and less and less unsalabl
fruit is produced. Growers are study
ing the production of fruit from
scientific standpoint and as the oil
orchards die out better varieties ar
planted and the grade of fruit is con
stantly improving.

The Latest Yet
SOUVENIR LETTER ALBUMS OF
OREGON.

This is, without doubt, the latest
invention in the way of a photograph
souvenir and promises to become very
popular.
The construction is similar to an
envelope, when closed being about the
size of anordinary number six govern
ment envelope. Made with two sheets
of letter paper and four sheets of
views making in all eight different
views in each booklet, and made in
four different series or a total of S2
different views in the lot.
After writing the letter you simply
moisten the gummed edges and seal
it exactly the same as an envelope
Address and stamp the outside cover.
The receiver merely tears off the
gummed edges at the perforation,
which is readily done, whereupon he
finds his letter with the different
views of the most popular and inter-
esting scenes in this state.
