REPORT ON IRRIGATED LANDS.

Geo. M. Allen, deputy commissioner,
to.whom was assigned the duty of COM
piling a report upon the irrigated lands
of the state, has the thanks of this Of
flee for copy of that report recently
issued. 1t is handsomely illustrated
pamphlet of nearly 100 pages, showing
much care and labor in the assembling
of informating and statistics on the sub
ject, and securing comprehensive views
of orchards under irrigation and the
systems now in operation. There is
also colored map of the state show
ing the irrigated and irrigable lands
And, by-the-way, the lands that can be
watered embrace only a very small
fraction of the total AGRA of state.
Every county in which reclamation is
carried on is mentioned at length, and
altogether the publication is both in
teresting and instructive. AT the close
of several pages devoted to Okanogan
county is the following reference to
Oroville
''The town of Oroville is located a
few miles south of the international
boundary line. 1t is on the line of the
Great Northern branch which reaches
Spokane on the east, and will ulti-
mately find outlets at Wenatchee and
at Pacific Coast points in British Col
umbia.
"Oroville at present is railroad
point of Importance, in the center of
expanding mining developments, and
possesses all the characteristics of n
busy western community. The popu-
lation is about 800. On the east side of
the river, directly opposite the town,
and lying also along the shores of Lake
OsoyoOs, is tract Of 1000 acres of land
well suited to irrigation. A company
has been organized for the purpose and
will install l00-horse-power pump,
taking water direct from the lake. The
company has begun active prepare
tions looking toward the development
of this property, and it is announced
that their plans will be carried thro'
to early completion. There are sew
eral other tracts of good lands in the
vicinity of Oroville which in time will
become productive under the stimulus
of plentiful water supply"
