Artesian or Umatilla water schemes eyed for Morrow irrigation
A Morrow county committee proposes two irrigation plans to boost northern Morrow lands. One routes Umatilla River water via a high ditch to western Umatilla and across arid areas toward the Columbia, the other seeks artesian wells near Cascade Rock opposite Echo. The group urges government aid and notes potential irrigation of hundreds of acres and early river valley benefits. The committee includes E. M. Shutt, Frank Gillian, G. Conser, J. M. Heger and W. R. B. Finley.
