MORE WATER TALK
AM EXAMINATION OF WATER
Resources of the Kittitas Valley
And Desert Areas Near
The Columbia River.
THE DEPARTMENT SENDS THE FOLLOWING
Circular to the Press of the State That
II May be Given all the Publicity
Possible. Read it at Once.

An examination has recently been
made by f. G. Calkins of the Hydro
graphic Branch of the United States
Geological Survey, of the possibilities
OF increasing the water supply of por-
tions of central Washington. kittitas
Valley is one of the areas in which irri-
cation is all ready extensively practiced
by water drawn from the Yakima river
and it's tributaries. Plans have ma
Lured for the construction of bitches
from the upper Yakima which will ma
terially extend the irrigated area to the
east and south west in the near future.
Attention was also given to a strip
of dessert land ust east OF the Column
bia river now used as stock ranch,
and also TOT portion of the great wheat
growing region adjoining it on the
ward into the Big Bend of the Columbia
and eastward beyond the Idaho bound
AIRY. AS the district has an arid cl;-
mate, and its eastern portion is prac IT,
cally without surface streams, the
object of the examination was TO deter
mine the practicability of sinking deep
wells as means of obtaining water,
and especially to determine whether ar
tesian flows could be found. Irrigation
from the Columbia, except to a limited
extent ON its lowest terraces, appears
to be impracticable because TO the depth
and steepness of the sides of the canyon
through which the river flows.
East of the Columbia the inves tigatOn
included Crab creek, the only perennial
stream traversing the region, but its
waters were found to be no more than
sufficient for the irrigation of its own
bottom.
In the wheat lands, where all crops are
raised by dry farming and where water
for stock and domestic uses was for
merly brought from springs, sometimes
at great distances, the possibility of in
creasing the present number of deep
wells are carefully considered.
The information gathered this sea-
son indicates that supply of watersuf-
fcie at for present needs can be obtained
by deep drilling throughout the region
examined, at depths of from 40 to $40
feet. While there are no flowing arte-
sian wells the deep waters are found
to be under pressure and it is believed
that in certain of the lower wells along
the Northern Pacific railroad an ar
tesian flow could be obtained by proper
casing.
1t does not seem that any consider
able portion of the wheat lands can be
irrigated from deep wells, or that wa.
ter from this source for irrigation can,
be found in sufficient quantities in the.
uncultivated land east of the Columbia,
though it is believed that in this section.

may be prolitably sunk at some points.

Reflections of a Bachelor Girl.

All men like a we'll dressed
woman; but they don't all lik,
to pay the bills.
One trouble with women who
will not marry is that they have
learned to discriminate. They
all want to marry-if they can
get just what they want.
A woman needs to have been
IN love number Of times be-
fore she learns how to take any
comfort out of it.
1t is a sad commentary on
man that a perfectly cold
hearted, Indifferent. and selfish
woman can usually manage him
better than any other kind.
The happiest love affair for
woman is one in which the man
is very much in love with her.
and she likes him just wei
enough to make it plea SAINT to
have him around. When she
loves deeply. there is as much
pain as pleasure in it for her.
Men have so deified pbvsica |
beauty in woman since the be.
ginning Of time that it is a
wonder the sex has any heart
or brains left in it.
If there is anything a woman
envies a man it is his power Of
sublime and perfect uncon.
seriousness tn he can ever bore
any woman.
Tea and cats have caused
many smiles at the expense Of
old maids; yet they are no more
disagreeable and not nearly so
expensive as whiskey and
horses.
Man thinks home is the dear.
est spot on earth-for a woman.
If he has to stay in it himself
for three days running he re.
sembles bear with a sore paw.
Man has idolized the domes
tic woman in song and story;
yet she can't talk to him about
her children for an hour with
out boring him.
A woman's most attractive
mental quality to man is that
of being a good listener.
No one ever hears about
scrubwomen or charwomen los.
ing their woma nIiuess; but it's
different if she's a lawyer or a
doctor.-N. Y. Times.
