 Mir Holland is improving the old Wickenburg ranch just south of him. F. x. O'Brien has secured q number of small ranches. which he has consoli Q dated and is leveling. clearing and pre- pairing to irrigate and cultivate inten- sively. He proposes to make it a model farm for fruit and fine stock, and says he intends to have the best that can be had on an Arizona farm, believing he can make his enterprise both pleasant and profitable. He proposes to have an independent water supply and to that end has eXcavated a well twenty feet wide and sixty feet long and twen- ty-five or thirty feet deep. In this he has installed a twenty five horse power pump. which will throw water for a considerable acreage MT. O'Brien has also bought q tract of land from MT. Holland. which he is improving with stables and corrals for the use of stock employed in his mining opera tions. some distance away.
 But the basis of it all is the railroad improvements to the west and the mines in the surrounding country. MT. O'Brien is one of the largest operators. his properties being eighteen miles from Wickenburg. by the old road that has been in use for a long time. MT. Streitz, however, has surveyed a new route from the O'Brien mines to VVade's station on the Wickenburg and BlacK Rock road, which will shorten the dis tance between the mine and Wicken- burg to twelve miles. It is this new road work that is most engaging MT. O'Brien's attention just now The grades will be easy, so heavy machin- cry may be easily hauled and with great facility. He proposes to put up a new fOrty-stamp mill of modern equipmen. just as soon as the road is built and h can perfect the necessary preliminarieS The property is well developed. some of the workings being 500 feet deeD. Large ore bodies of rich value have been exposed, and it is believed that the mine is a fully proved one.

of F. x. O'Brien. The people of Wick enburg decided to establish street grades and employed MT. SreitZ to lay out the business part of town for that purpose. He did so, and the streets around the two best business blocks of the town are now being properly grod- ed. Mr. Holland also had MT. StreitZ lay out several tiers of lots on the higher ground west of the railroad track. a portion that it is believed will eventually become the choice residence section. Mining men who are concern ed in various big properties in the nearby districts propose to build houses for their families in Wicken burg. One of these. c. w. Platt, of the Monarch Gold Mining Co, already has a handsome modern residence about completed. D. L. Murray is build ing a handsome double brick store and basement with a new storage warehouse apart from the other structure He is enjoying a constantly increasing trade and is preparing for its convenien. handling.
 A general air of prosperity pervades the place. People are fencing in their lots. clearing up the brush and stones in the streets, and doing all they can to beautify the town. There is a healthy building boom on and many new roofs may be seen. The feeling is universal that there is something good in the air. and the Wickenburg people propose to get it. Another en- terprise that is presumably a good one both for the town and for the promoter, is the blacksmithing business of MT. Smith, who has lately moved his shop from Martinez to Wickenburg. He is a good mechanic and has equipped 'hiS new shop for doing all manner of work in his line He has sufficient money to carry out his plans and is expending it liberally, but judiciousIy.

NOTHING WRONG

Residents Describe the ConStantly
 Growing Activity Whereabouts.

w s. Holland and wife, of Wicken- burg. have been in Phoenix for a few days on a shopping trip and attending to a number of business matters. MT. Holland owns the old Henry Wicken- burg ranch and some other property Tn and around the town. No man can be more enthusiastic than he is over its future, for he believes sincerely that It will in the next year or two become station of great importance, per haps rising to the dignity of a western city. It is known of all men in these parts that Wickenburg is a central point and the railroad station for some of the richest mineral districts in Ari- zona, and that means in the world. It is only a question of the development of these mines. for when the are all working and producing, Wickenburg will necessarily be a busy place. Just now there seems to be more genuine development in operation and planned than there ever was before, and, realiz- ing this, the people of Wickenburg are doing all they can to beautify the town, improve it's business facilities and thus encourage a healthy growth, taking ad- vantage of every possible opportunity for betterment.
 Gus StreitZ, a well-known Phoenix engineer, has been engaged most of the time for weeks past in engineering work, both in Wickenburg and on nearby mining and ranch properties. Much of the time he was in the employ

ton.

ASOTIN, Nov. 3.-Work on the con-
struction Of the gigantic pipe line Of
the lewiston Charleston company is
now being done on the hillside oppo-
site the city. The excavating crews
are now working above the southern
end Of the Clemens addition or about
half mile north of town. The ex-
cavating being done is largely dirt
work and rapid progress can be made
as there is but little work on this end
Of the line.
The different gangs are engaged in
placing the pipe in position and as
the diameter of the pipe, now that the
light plant has been passed, is but
40 inches, the progress Of construction
is much more rapid than it mas hither-
to been. A force of men is also en-
gagged in laying the steel pipe for the
penstick from the new high land ditch
to the site of the new power plant,
the foundation for which is already
complete. The progress now being
made in the construction of the new
line is highly gratifying and the date
of completion is now within measur-
able distance.

Puya||up Cannery Paid Out $4,000
in Wages
MANAGEMENT IS VERY WELL PLEASED
MOST VALUABLE OUTPUT WAS
$4,000 EARS OF CORN ON
THE COB.

PUYALLUP, Nov. 3.-The Weber
Russell Canning company has given out
a statement Of the business done In
Puvallup between June 26 and Oct.
81, 1906. The cannery began work
on June rs. During the season OF
raspberries it put up 25,s47 crates or
3O5 tons; of blackberries, 1874 crates
or 23O tons; pears, 40 tons; plums and
prunes, Sc tons; apples up to Oct. 81,
20 tons, with as many more to be
handled.
Wages paid amount to $500. That
includes only labor for handling the
fruit. The shipping boxes are made
at the Morse Manufacturing plant and
up to date $4,000 boxes cost IL cents
each. a. I&AHN
Four years ago Superintendent S. j.
Arnold was here for seven days and
put up in that length of time 1000
cans Of blackberries. This year in
twenty eight days he put up 1000
cans of blackberries daily.
The cannery has also put up $4,000
ears Of corn on the cob, which has
proved a most successful venture. The
canning of vegetables is not yet fin
ished and will probably run well into
November.
The largest number on the payroll
was 12O, the smallest Is. This COM
pany has just begun to ship in car
load lots, and is somewhat hampered
by a shortage of cars. The principal
shipping points are Boston, Philadel-
phia, Omaha, Denver, San Francisco,
Tacoma and Seattle. Superintendent
Arnold has been untiring in his ef-
forts to place the cannery on a basis
second to none in the United States
and the demand for the goods have
shown their merit Two directors of
the Fruit Growers association and
Superintendent Arnold have worked
in harmony. This company has used
three times the fresh goods contracted
for, corn excepted.
The warehouse facilities nave been
short and 1.-The Webber-Bussell COM
pany has begun the erection Of large
warehouse adjoining the cannery
160x1S5 feet. It will hold 10000 cases
