6. The ground embraced in this
proposed Drainage District is al
strip of land about three and one
half miles in length in a Northerly
and Southerly direction, bounded on
the Westerly side by the right of
way of the Oregon Short Line Rail-
way Company, which along and at
this place lies directly on the East
Bank of Snake River. This tract off
land is bounded on the Easterly
side by the canal of Extension Ditch
Company Lying Immediately East
of this canal the hills rise up pre-
All OF the lands lying
between said canal and the right
of way of the Oregon Short Line
Company were very badly
water-logged, swampy, and by means
Of surface and especially under
ground water and water courses have
been rendered water-logged and
1on-rroductive, and in places very
swampy. The observations and ex-
oerience of the farmers on this
ract of land demonstrates that
he lands are getting more and more
marshy, unproductive,
ind unhealthy each year.
The proposed drainage system is
described as follows:
The main drain is an open ditch
tx feet wide at the bottom and slope
# one and one half feet to one on
ides. This drain will be carried tol
UGH depth at various points as
viii be necessary, as shown by the
est pits which have been sunk all
yer the proposed Drainage District, .
0 drain off all underground as well
s all surface water. This main ,
rain begins at the quarter corner
ommon to sections II and IA in
p. 8 N. R. 5 w. B. M, and runs ,
hence East one quarter of mile; :,
hence in North Easterly direction
blowing the low lands and sloughs
, near the center of section IL
aid township and range; thence 1
Torth one half mile and West
alf mile along certain surface
'aste ditch now constructed, to the
northwest corner of said section IL;
hence North about one eighth Of S
