NO COWS IN ROADS.
Must be Kept in Enclosures in Dis
tI.ict that Is Under
Irrigation.

Cows will not be allowed to roam
at will in the irrigated section of the
Mckee valley in the future, the coun-
ty commissioners having decided TO
create the section into an "agricul-
tural district" at the meeting Satur-
day. A number of Mckee property
owners signed petition requesting
the step.
Included in the district is all the
land under the Selah e Mckee ditch
and also four sections under the arte-
sian wells, practically all the irri-
gated area of the valley. Any per-
son allowing cattle to roam in the
district will be liable to fine Of
from $25 to 500 for each offense.
There has been considerable COM
plant among the ranchers of cattle
that has been set to grazing along
the roads, blocking travel and also
destroying alfalfa near the fences
and doing damage to trees. The or
der of the commissioners will cause
the trouble to cease.

1858 FOR FILING.
Primary Election Fees Handed to
County Auditor Amount to
Large Sum.


Filing fees for candidates that
desired to have their names on the
Republican and Democratic tickets
at the primaries amounted to 1858,
according to an announcement made
by County Auditor Crocker at the
close of his office work Saturday.
over a hundred dollars was received
on the final day.
The amount received is given to
the current expense fund of the
county and assists in defraying the
expenses for the primary, and if
anything is left over for the election
in November. However, the primary
cost will likely absorb the full
amount.

COLUMBIA TRACTS.
Pumps for the Big Project are
Installcd-Crops Raised There
i'm Abundance.

A body of the choicest fruit lands
on the Columbia river has just been
plated by Charles f. Forsyth of this
city, city attorney, and will shortly
be put on the local market. There
are 265 acres of this land, situated
four miles below the foot of Priest
Rapids and just above the famous
Hanford project which is now under
water. "River Font Orchard Tracts
as Mr.. Forsyth's land is designated,
lies along the majestic Columbia for
q distance of over a mile and slopes
gently toward the water, making it
an ideal home spot and easily Access
sible for water transportation. The
North Bank Railroad company is now
engaged in cross sectioning the land
adjoining and it is quite probable
that one of these days Jim Hill will
extend this line up to Wenatchee via
this route. The orchard tracts will
be watered by two Gould centrifugal
pumps with a capacity each Of 80
gallons a minute, which is nearly
twice as much water duty as ordi-
marty required. The pumps are in
stalled and thorough testing has
failed to lower the water level in the
wells, which is several feet below the
low water mark of the river IL
pumps are a success anywhere in the
west they will be in the Columbia
river valley where conditions are Pc
culiarly adapted for them. Mr.. For
syth says his land is close by the ia
nous Juniper Springs ranch at Priest
Rapids, where all kinds of tropical
fruits and melons are raised In album
dance and shipped every year. This
is but one instance of where North
Yakima capital and enterprise is
reaching out into surrounding fields.
