WILL EMPLOY
RAIN-MAKER
Oregon County Invests In
Plan to Help
Irrigation

w. T, Bishop, the we'll known COM
mercial traveller of this city, says the
Pendleton Tribune who has just re-
turned from a trip through Sherman
county, tells an interesting story of the
preparations being made there to try
a rain making experiment this sum-
mer
f fteen hundred dollars have been
raised in the vicinity of Wasco. the
county seat of Sherman county, for the
purpose of bringing a Los Angeles
rainmaker to that place for the expert
ment.
According to the contract entered
into between the people and the rain
maker, no money Is to be paid over un-
less the rainmaker causes six inches Of
rain to fall within radius of so miles
Of the location OF his tower, between
May 25 and Juy Is. 1907.
| So far the people have not expended
| cent Of money. all the preparations
having been made at the expense Of
the experImenter, and the agreement
is that no money will be paid until
after the rain is delivered. I'>"t
The rainmaker will erect a high
tower in the vicinity. Of wasco; from
which explosive chemicals will be sent
into the air on cloudy days and nights
and exploded at great elevation above
the earth.
/ The rainmaker has studied weather
STATISTICS of that section and declares
that is most favorable place for rain
making experiments and he is sure o.
lde ivering the goods within the tins
ispecified.
While crops are In very good condi'
tion in Sherman county. yet the rain II
badly needed and the people are will
ling to risk the amount for the expert
ment. Mr.. Bishop says that the $3.50
for the experiment has been PRACTICAL!
Eail raised in wasco and in the immedi
ate vicinity and that little has beel
raised in the farming sections. whicl
will be benefited most by the expert
ment. So
/ The people have great confidence i
the ability Of the rainmaker. as he ha
borne his own expense so far and
is said could have had 5000 for 81
inches of rain as readily as $3.50
Work on the tower will begin at ono

means that Only seven of the jurors
