NEW PIPE LINE COM
fAtIED 10 CASH iiIR l..
Takes Place OF Flume Across Nal.s .
Iam tanyon--t1OrtOn's rew pt.S
gins Work on iirIuge.

The new pipe line which was be-
ing constructed by the Nena -chee
Canal Company, across \ahahum can
yon. on the opposite side OF the Wen
atcnee river from Cashmere, was
completed Wednesday. This pipe
will be a part of the Weaatchee
High Line Canal and will be used
for the purpose of conveying water
in the canal from one side OF the
canyon to the other.
The pipe is quite large, even larS-
er than is necessary to carry the
present supply of water, but in con-
sideration of the fact that the COM
pany intend enlarging the canal in
the near future, it was constructed
with this point in view. being 12
feet in diameter and 500 feet long,
having a fall OF two feet in this dis
tance 1t is made of 2x6 wood slaves
held in place by 5-o iron bands, 12
inches apart the entire length OF the
pipe. These in turn are held firm
ed to the ends OF the bands, there
by making the pipe very substantial,
and leaving but small chance for
leakage.
The first method employed by the
company for conveying water across
the canyon was by flume. 120 feet
high in the center, and although built
in a substantial manner, and being
quite seryiceable the first year, the
strain was great during the irriga-
tion season when y full head OF wa
ter was continually bearing down
and this in connection with the high
winds which occasionally visit that
section, it gradually began to weak
en-, until near the end OF the second
season it collapsed. becoming tot
al wreck nearly the entire length.
The next move was TO build dirt
ditch around the head of the canyon,
but this was found to be unsatis-
factory. as the proper fall could not
be obtained. and as consequence
much water leaked away occasion
ing considerable loss.
During the early part of the sea-
son it was deemed ADVISABLE by the
management of the COMPANY TO
build a pine line across the canyon
and plans were at once laid for its
construction. Work began July I
and was rushed through 70 compile
.ion. consuming less than two months
time to camnlate thn irh.
