Making Plan.

I'd Virgins. receiver OF the Wood
ward land Office. the largest in the ter
ritory. has been in Guthrie since Sat
urdsy on official business. He met a
number OF friends today and to thew
expressed many nice things about
Guthrie. It's growth and prosperity
Mr.. Virgins. however, never forgets
to boost his own part Of the country
He says that Beaver and Woodward
counties are being rapidly settled and
improved. In few years all the vast
stretch OF country in Western 0klaho-
ma which has been considered desert
will be converted into rine farms and
homes
There ie now government expert
on irrigation At work in Beaver and
Woodward counties. who sayc It is
likely that it will not be long before
congress will make an appropriation
for the purpose OF building large
reservoir along the Cimarron river for
Irrigation purposes. Mr.. Virgins had
long discussion with the government
engineer who has been trayersing the
country from the head OF the Cmar
ron river down into Oklahoma for the
past two months. and he was informed
By the expert that the plan to build
reservoir was a commendable one. and
feasible.
Mr.. Virgins says there is place in
Beaver county where lake could be
made To store water enough to irrigate
the whole country for miles adjacent
thereto This place, he says, is swag
containing about 5000 acres and can
be easily excavated aud arranged for
reservoir on lake.
