viii Organize Horticultural Society

An effort will be made to organize a
branch of the County Horticultural
Society at Leavenworth. The meeting
will be held early in November at
which time it is hoped by those that
are interested in this important in
dustry that enough interest can be
awakened to effect strong local Or
ganization. The Leavenworth branch
will work in harmony with the county
society, in fact be an auxiliary organ
ization. Other organizations have al
ready been formed, one at Cashmere
another at Chelan, the Wenatchee or
ganization has been organized for
several years. Mr.. Horn of Wenatchee
is an enthusiastic member Of the latter
organization and will be here to help
organize the Leavenworth branch.
The date Of the meeting will be
fixed and given out next week.

Wreck On The W. v. & N. Ry.

The new railroad had its first wreck
OF any importance last Monday. The
wreck occurred near the mill. A train
of logs was being taken up to the
dumping place where for convenience
in unloading, the track is raised on one
side about a foot. 1t appears that one
of the cars was loaded heavier on the
lower side which caused it to turn
turtle, as they say in nautical parlance
the car landing on top Of the logs in
six or eight feet Of water, where it
still lies.
A crew of men with the pile driver
outfit has been at work trying to get it

over 400 feet of cement sidewalk has

cheap and getting cheaper all the time
