VIII Improve Irrigation System.

The Northern Pacific Irrigation
company is to start at once on m
provements to its system in the Ken
newick country that will cost in the
neighborhood OF $150,000.
The work consists among other
things. of putting in cement fumes to
take the place of the dirt water
courses, which have been used in the
past to convey the water to the farms
of the fruitgrowers in the Kennewick
country.
The company has concluded that
the soil through which the irrigation
bitches are running is not particularly
fitted for holding water and that a
change must be made. The soil is
sandy and absorbs a great deal of wa
ter along the line of the ditches
This waste is considered to be OF
enough Importance to Justify making
costly changes.-Yakima Republic.
