II. s. Woolley. Of the Amalgamated
Nevada Mines and Power company. and
Willard Snyder. of the Ely Consolidated
have concluded arrangements for the
erection Of four big power plants on
Baker creek. the waters of which were
acquired some months ago from the
ranchers of that vicinity. The con
struction Of these plants will necessi-
tate the expenditure Of at least $780,

Immense reservoirs will be con-
structed for storing the waters from
the twenty or more streams controlled
by the ~Amalgamated people. The four
power plants will be built of stone and
concrete. the durability Of the struc-
lures being the chief object of the
promoters. According to present plans,
n of the plants will have a capacity
equal to that of the other three. All
the plants will be put up in close prox-
unity to one another. The largest plant
will cost $500. 900. and the other three

have prevailed this year and l do not
expect such prices to prevail again
very soon. Beware, therefore, of the
land boomer who tries to make you
believe that such returns can be rea-
lized each year. 1t is always unsafe

One of the valuable lessons we have
learned of great practical Importance
is the Importance of early and thor
ough spraying for the cOdling moth
In our spraying we use power spray
er run with a gasoline engine and
another one run by hand. We find
where the power sprayer was used
and the trees sprayed thoroughly with
it we had the cleanest apples we ever
had on the ranch since the coddling
moth got started. l would say more
about our success but 1 have a letter
from Prof. A. L. Melander, the ento-
mologist of the state college at Pull
man. giving his experience in fight
ing the coddling moth that will be
of more value to our readers than any
thing | can present. commend this
letter as being one of the most salts
factory things yet furnished on hight
ing this worst of all pests. The fol-
lowing is Prof. Melander's very val
liable letter:
Pullman, Wash, Oct. IS, 1907.
My Dear Mr.. Walden:
I am now convinced that no one
need have wormy apples in his or
chard no matter how adverse his con-
ditions may seem. Our demonstra-
ton of our methods of spraying at
Walla Walla and Wenatchee this year
have been most convincing. For In
stance, I selected an abandoned or
chard at Walla Walla that has been
run to weeds, scale, and moth, so that
it's crop has hitherto been wasted each
wear. In fact, most of the orchard had
been cut down for fire wood by the
time I selected it. One hundred trees
were sprayed four times with arse
nate of lead, while about fifty trees
that had been sold when the orchard
was divided into town lots were Ier
unsprayed. Counts were made two
weeks ago at picking time and show
the orchard to be free from moth to
the extent of 99.9 per cent. Counts on
the unsprayed portion of the orchard
ran only 3.5 per cent free from the
coddling moth. In other words, -FOUR
sprayings have changed the crop from
worthless to practically 100 per cent
clean. This, l believe, is the Severest
test we have ever undertaken, and
the results bear out what we direct
our farmers to do. In this case the
crop of the hundred sprayed trees
amounted to 1000 boxes, the spraying
of these trees cost $50. The buyer
refused to bid on the apples from the
qnsprayed portion of the orchard.
At Wenatchee we had similar
cess, although the orchards we Sc
