Watermaster's Duties Are Of Great importance

"a Sketch Of His Work IN UmatiIia
County and Benefits Derived BY
L. A. Reineman, Watermaster Dis
trict No. 81
A conservative estimate places the
amount Of new land being pat under
irrigation each year in umatilla
county at around 5000 acres. This
annual reclamation will no doubt in
crease with the resumption Of nor
NAL times The amount Of land now
being irrigated in the county totals
something like $4,000 acres of 4O,-
900 acres are upon adjacent streams,
while the amount that Is ready for
development, that rs, the amount
runder irrigation systems already
completed. totals sixty thousand
acres OF which the bulk is
upon the Umatilla drainage system.
Thus In this county we have some
thing over 100000 acres developed or
being developed and valued about as
follows
Irrigated lands. $4,000 acres at
$3.50. 11.2OO,oOO,
Incomplete development, 10000
acres at $50. $500, 600.
Total, &10,SoO,OOO.
This totals to a tremendous sum
and yet II represents only small
part of the development which will
take place in the near future, for
there are many thousands of acres
still TO be developed and land so rich
that II will command high price This
is at present primarily a wheat and
stock belt with fruit a strong factor,
tbut In the near future II win be an
rirrigaton belt and our greatest
chances Tor development lie in that
direction. This does not mean that
the great 1wheat industry here will be
wiped out. not at al. for much Of
that land cannot BE- irrigated 81 50
desired But II does mean that our
greatest wealth and greatest increase
in population will come from trrtgat-
ed districts and wheat raising Will
be of secondary Importance in the
county
Adjudication OF water Rights.
As more and more land is put un-
der irrigation the water supply is
used up more thoroughly and water
Is valued higher until such time ar
rlves when there is not enough for all
irrlgators. From then on there h
likelihood OF serious quarrels occur
ring over the water and this condition
becomes worse each year as new land
is developed. and law suits are the
result which do not settle the ques-
tions and cost the farmers many
thousands Of dollars
To meet this problem the state OF
Oregon formed water board, which
began lts work in 1909 II Is the du-
" OF said board upon request from
any water user upon a stream to ae-
termine the relative water rights Of
iFrIgators and others upon that
stream, and then to take charge OF

Fully fifty per cent Of the water

are many trrigators VINO do not know
how to make the best use OF the wa
Ter. They often split up their allot-
ed amount into small heads, being
thereby unable TO cover as much
ground as they could, or they keep

many more the watermaster must
help to correct.
The state water code covers many
points which aid the watermaster in
obtaining Improvements, such as the
law governing waste OF water Ac-
ceptable headgates. dams and meass
.uring devices must be installed ana
bitches must be kept clean. II a
man does not make good use Of his
water or his bitches are unfit TO carry
it, the watermaster may shut his
ditch until conditions are remedied
OF course, the building up OF an ir-
rigation system upon any stream takes
time and reforms are promulgated in
such way that no hardships are
worked upon the people.
Benefits 10 the People from This
Department.
One Of the best results Of our work
is the stopping Of neighborhood quar-
rels resulting from unequal distribu-
ton Of water. In many cases these
fights have been going on for years
and the trouble has taken in entire
communities, and in such cases Il
may take several years to gradually
eradicate 1t but results are always
gratifying There is no doubt but
what quarrels over water have driven
many prospective settlers and land
buyers from this county in the past
and right now on streams where we
have worked for several years one
can see the difference
BY curtaiiing the water hogs" by
saving waste water, by educating the
ranchers TO better use of water, and
by systems of rotation in the use OF
water, the duty Of water is being rails
ed This means that more land can
be developed and irrigated because
given quantity Of water under prop
er distribution will cover more land
than under the old regime That
means that greater population can
live in the county, for irrigation tends
toward intensive farming. 1t also
means in many cases increased yield
of crops the result of less soaking
of the soil and more cultivation. The
idea has taken hold of some farmers
that water is all that is necessary to
raise a crop. just get enough water
and the crops will take care Of them
selves. That, of course, is the wrong
idea and has been the downfall of
many ranchers, for too much water
invariably leeches the nutriment from
the soil and seurs it as well.
With the determination of the wa
ter rights and proper distribution of
the water land values become more
permanent and often the values take
a jump. Before a settlement OF water
rights it was hard to prove what right
a piece of land had to water and some
times harder to obtain the water. Oft
en- land was represented as having
a good water right when as a matter
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1915-09-23

the distribution OF the waters by ap-
pointing a watermastsr for said
stream.
Duties OF a Waternlaster.
The watermaster not only distrlb-
utes the water to water users but he
has anany other duties. He has COM
plete charge OF the stream, must
make numerous measurements Of the
flow TO determine Just how much wa
ter is available, and then from the
findings Of the state water board in
the adjudication OF the water rights
ne ascertains what land or persons
have the oldest or prior rights and
VINO next and so on, giving out all
the water and covering as many
rights as possible The newer rights
are first to be cut out as the flow OF
the stream diminishes
The watermaster is a policeman and
so can enforce the law and compel
wateruEers to take only such water
as they are entitled to, There are
many questions Of law that come up
and he must be able to determine who
has the right In a dispute, but often
the question is one which has never
been determined IN court and SO he

A unique plan was used in an Ore
gon county to encourage large at
tendance of farmers and merchants
at a meeting held for the purpose
of organizing farmers club. The
merchants of the town used great
deal of their advertising space in
the local papers for calling attention
to the time and place of meeting, as
well as the program for the day. The
merchants also announce that they
would close their places of business
from IL to 1:30 p. m. and help "wait
on the tables" at the free dinner tc
be given by the retail merchants as.
sociation to all farmers and theit
wives attending the meeting. In ad,
dition to the speakers the merchants
association had provided orchestra
and band music for the occasion. As
a result of this interest shown by
the business men and their active ad,
vertising campaign, very enthusi'
astic meeting was held, attended by
nearly 700 persons. Nearly 5OC
persons were served at the luncheon.

Keen Glonm From Sickroom.

There ought to be some sort OF
test for sickroum visitors. People who
are Just recovering from the throes OF
death and have the grim reapers
shoulders on the mat should not be
placed at the mercy Of the disconcert-
ing. disheartening and depressing
friends who gain admittance to the
chamber under the guise Of kindness,
If some one can devise way to de-
tect the visitors who know Of some
body who died of the patients malady
and stop them at the threshold, re-
coveries will be quicker and deaths
fewer. In the absence of such test
the best kindness folks with grouches
hard luck tales and yarns of misery
in their system can do for those in
sickness is to stay away. Many pa
tient has spent days recovering from
the effects Of ten minute visit by

Rosary Hill Home, Hawthorne, NY.
-"I have been at work among the sick
and poor for nearly eighteen years, and
whenever | have used Vinol for run
down, weak or emaciated patients, they
have been visibly benefited by it. One
patient, young woman, was so weak
and ill she could hardly creep to my door
for aid, and was leaning on friends
arm. l supplied Vinol to her literally
and in month when she returned to
thank me l hardly recognized her. She
was strong, her color charming and her
cheeks rounded out. These words are
uttered from my heart, in order that
more people may know about Vinol, as
there is nothing makes me happier in
the world than to relieve the sick. -
Mother M. ALPHoNsA LATHRoP, o. SD,

Such disinterested and reliable testi-
mony should convince everyone of the
merits of Vinol, our delicious cod liver
and iron tonic to build up health and
strength for all weakened and nervous
conditions, whether caused from over
work, worry or chronic coughs and colds.
If Vinol fails to benefit we return your

Here every turn reminds us of st.
Paul. The principal square is called
Piazza San Paolo and here we find
fine cathedral. which is said to be built
on the very site of the house OF l'uD'

In a nearby suburb of Citta Necchia
is another church dedicated to st

over the very grotto in which he lived
during his three months on the island,
and the catacombs of the grotto are
also called after his name.
