The Washburn leader. [volume] (Washburn, McLean County, N.D.) 1890-1986, 1906-04-06

The attention of the village dads
is called to the great necessity OF at
once providing the village with a
place where all the refuse can be
dumped. Heretofore the matter
has been let drag along and refuse
and dead horses and dogs were
thrown out in any old place. The
board Of health cannot order a
general clean up unless they can at
the same time instruct where. the
refuse is to be dumped. 1t may be
necessary for the village to buy a
small plat of ground to be used for
this purpose. If we are going to
avoid sickness and disease it is
necessary that we get busy and do
something. The citizens should
take enough pride in the welfare
of the village without having to
call in the board of health to en-.
force the laws relating to hauling
away and cleaning up all refuse
from around the buildings.

Garrison is one of the new towns

terminus of the 500 extension, and
is the center of a splendid agri-
cultural and stock-growing region.
and has made wonderful growth
since it's establishment. $4,000
acres of the rich lands Of the Fort
Stevenson reservation are being
sold to actual settlers, and this ter
ritory will be tributary to CARR
son, assuring a large increase in
the business to be transacted. The
extension of the 500 line north
west from Garrison will open up
a large amount of new territory
tributary to that trading center.
Those who are in on the ground
floor at this new town will prosper
as they deserve, and there is ample
time and opportunity for others to
share in the general benefits aris-
ing from the settlement of this
country,

The past few warm days seems
to have brought forth a new lot of
candidates for the several Offices Of
the county. This is alright and
very proper that it should be SO,
but the voters should see that men
who are competent to fill the po-
sitions, to which they aspire, are
elected. The primary law under
which the election is headed this
year is something new and remains
to be tried and will take careful
study on the part Of the voter to
understand it. Do not sign a petit
ton unless YOU can support the
candidate at the polls.

not a reason why we should neg.

Prepare your ground this year

1t is now one series OF orchards from
end to end. The houses almost adjoin
one another there being one to every
five or ten-acre tract. AS "a result, the
valley Is more like a great orchard VII

that the women can walk few steps
and talk to their nelghbors. Every
house has its own telephone and the
rates are from 81 to s. q month with no
restriction as to the number of con-
versntions. Most Of the houses have
pipe connections with the Irrigation
works, SO that each home has It's own
hydrant and most of them have bath
rooms and all modern conveniences. An
electric light system is now being put
into this orchard district, and within q
short time nearly every one OF these
cottages, the average OF which did not

These Wenatchee people know how to
raise fruit. They keep their plows going,
from ono end Of the season to the other.
One man tells me that he ploycd his or

most Of the holdings are kept as clean as
