Olem Deaver. head of the Bur lington's homezeekers' bureau, Is homo from the northwest, where he accom panied Secretary of the Interior Lane ou his Inspection of the Irrigation projecU along the company lines. Jtr. Deaver left Secretary Lane and larty at Cody, Wyo. From there the sec retary Intended to go through Yellow stone park, later on visiting the Bun river Irrigation project In Montana. According to Mr. Dearer. Secretary Lane Is highly pleated with the resells of Irrigation In the northwest TX spent sevoral days looking over tho govern ment projects around Billings and from there went down Into the Big Horn country and across to the Shoshone Ir rigated districts, everywhere stopping and talking with tho farmers and ranch men who have land under the several ditches, The visit V Secretary Lane, Mr. Deaver believes will bring about a number of Important changes relative to Irrigation and Irrigable Jands. After talking with interested parties and after seeing what has been accomplished, the secretary has decldrd to recommend some radical changes In the law, all of which will make it caster for the land owners. Change In Payments. Under tho present plan, in Irrigated districts the settler pays his proportionate cost of ditch construction In ten annual payments, without Interest, the aggre gate cost being some 131 per acre. Sec retary Lane will recommend that In stead of annual payments the settler be permitted to make payment In full at the end of fifteen years and without In ttresU Thla change in the law. it is contemplated, will enable the bwr.er pf the land to use all of the proceeds of the land In making Improvements and at the end of fifteen years he will be In posi tion to pay up without being put to any inconvenience, as In that length of time he will have accumulated a competency. No change will be recommended In the matter of maintenance. This will bo a fixed charge and will be paid annually the same as now.
