An Ailment Of Cows at calving Time
and How TO Treat u.

Garget or caked udder is quite 9
common trouble which occurs usually
Just before or just after calving. The
udder becomes hard and the glands
are enlarged and feyerish. There are
usually no bad consequences from the
trouble unless II Is neglected. Il is
caused by a large supply OF milk re
naming in the udder and Is some
times aggravated by %neglecting te
milk or by the COW standing In q
draft OF cold air. In cases OF this
kind Il Is not well 10 milk the COW
out clean as the Irritation caused By
milking makes matters worse. The
best procedure Is 10 only partially
empty the udder and then reduce the
Inflammation with a fermentation Of
warm water. The mere sucking Of s
hungry calf and the working OF the
teats viii sometimes help. Il Is also
well TO rub the affected parts vel
with the palm Of the hand after each
milking and rub in a little camphor
ated ointment or some ~unsalted lard
or oily substance. II takes severa
days TO get rid Of the trouble.

virtues. He was born in New York
state, from which he enlisted in the ar

spent some years in the southern
states, finally settling in New Mexico

The purchase Of a lot BY the town
council al a special meeting held las,
week does not meet with the approval
Of all the tax PAYERS, A meeting was
called for Monday night at which res
olution in the form Of protest was
passed, The protest, however, was not
presented TO the Council aud the deal
for the lot was closed BY ordering a
warrant drawn for the purchase price,
5000,
No doubt the Council believed they
were acting Tor the best interests Of the
town, The only comment 10 be made
on the action is tha, they acted with
100 great haste, II they had gone into
the matter with more deGberation they
might have saved the town some
money. or at least made a more advan-
tageous bargain. That the action was
taken wishoa, due consideration we
have bur 70 refer 70 the fact tina, they
decided TO bay certain 10, without
first ascertaining whether the price
named by the owner was a cash or time
pgiee. Iii, was a time price Of course
there would have been a discount for
cash,
Evegy citizen Of the town, having It's
best interests in mind, viii, we believe,
agree with us, when we say a better bar
gam could have been made if more time
had been taken. G.S. Merriam owns 2 lots
adjoining the one purchased BY the
town, each exactly the same size as the
one purchased, one Of which has a
hoaSe estimated 70 be worth 500 and
the other $500 or 5000, The former
lot and house could have been bought
loE $500 while the latter could have
been secared for sl100, and quite pos
sibly a round thousand. Deduct the
value Of the house rom each lot and
you have the owners valuation Of the
lot, We repeat, gentlemen Of the
Council, it is our belief that if you had
not acted with undue haste you could
have saved the town some money which
could have been wei spent in street
Improvements the coming summer.

ELECTRIC POWER PLANT
Sly Niles East Of Lcavenw ny
Wenatchee Corporation

Last weeks Republic contained the /
following account Of the formation OF
company to erect large power plant
the coming summer near the Tom
Henry place;
Incorporation papers for the Column
bia Power Company have been prepared
here this week by Attorneys Reeves &
Reeves. The object Of the incorpora-
ton is to develop and transmit TO this
city 1000 horse power OF electricity.
The names Of the incorporates are in
dieative OF the fact that this is no hot-
air scheme, but that the power will be
actually developed. MeSSrs. w, T.
Clark, Marvin Chase and T. NJ. Scheble
are the men behind the proposition,
The capital stock is placed at $780,
900. Notice for the appropriation Of
the water of the Wenatchee river has
already been fled.
In brief, it is the intention Of the
Columbia Power Company to com
mence work in a short time on 4 huge
power plant to be located on the We
natchee river just above the Tom Hen
IN place, about fifteen miles from here.
The intake Of the High Line ditch will
be moved up the river a couple Of
miles farther 10 give sufficient fall, and
the ditch itself win be widened and
given concrete bed-that is for the
distance between the intake and the
location Of the power house. Compe-
tent engineers say that 1000 horse
power can be developed at this place
and the new company proposes TO de-
velop it. Work win be commenced in
very short time on this project and it
| is expected that the company viii be
in position to distribute electricity in
the city by the early fall, Fully $780,
/ 900 win be expended on the plan. and
/ the work.
/ MesSrs. Chase and Scheble were
asked by Republic reporter as 70 what
purpose they anticipated putting the
power when they had it developed.
Both men gave the reporter the intor-
nation that Wsnatchee was destined 70
70 become a manufacturing metropolis
and that all the power that could be
developed by their company would be
utilized az once. In fact these men
say that practically all Of the power they
viii have for sale is already spoken for.
The business men Of Wenatchee for
the past year have felt that The future
Of the place was dependent on the
, development Of power for manufactur-
ing purposes and in order for the place
TO grow much larger cheap power
would have 70 be held our as an in
/ ducement for men who would come IN
70 the city With plants that would fur
nish a good payroll.
The new company have acquired
plenty Of land on the river 50 that it

cient space for ITS operations. It also
has water right for practically all the
flow Of the river The river has con-
siderable fall ali the way rom its head

ton about being able 10 generate 4000
