Fruit Outlook in the kittitas.

The Ellensburg Capital, in sizing up
the fruit outlook in the valley for the
present year. says: 'The situation is
now fairly we'll outlined and yet it is
decidedly mixed, for the reason that
each locality is governed by different
phases, some sections having suffered
more from late frosts than others. On
the west side, so Adam Stevens in
forms the Capital, no noticeable dam
age has beeen done, and some of the
fruit is so we'll formed that there is no
guess work about it and the situation
can be correctly sized up. From 9TH
er parts of the valley, especially the
south end, the reports are not so en-
couraging, and there is no doubt that
the freezes did considerable damage.
However, it is generally claimed that
the trees were greatly overloaded with
blossoms, and that if only one-third re-
main to produce fruit there would
still be a large enough crop. So,
taken altogether, it is likely that we
will have a fair, if not an average crop
of fruit and berries, even the peaches
having passed through the ordeal in a
remarkably surprising manner.

Cascade Canal Is Completed.

The new Cascade irrigation canal, in
Kittitas county, has been completed
and water is now running in it.
For several days the flood waters from
Nahum and Wilson creeks have been
turned into the lower section of the
canal, and those who were ready for
the water were able to have all they
wanted, but very few were ready, and
consequently the water rolled on to-
ward the lower end, where large force
is putting on the finishing touches.
The big ditch was found to be in fine
condition and no trouble whatever
was experienced. The water was also
turned in at the upper end early i'll
the week before last and was carried
to the tunnel where the canal enters
the valley. The test was in every way
satisfactory, and the 1uming met every
expectation, not the slightest break &C.
curing.
There was water enough at the in
take when the headgate was opened to
supply 10000 inches of water in the
canal. When it is borne in mind that
the great storage dam is holding back
an immense volume of water at Lake
Katches, it will be seen that no one
under the ditch need worry about an
adequate supply for the canal and
lands under it. The water will be
turned into the canal for full service
just as soon as the railroad company
completes the bridge at the crossing.
