REALTY REVIEW
AND COMMENT
Realty Active in EIIensburs.

Not for many years has there been
such healthy tone in the local real
estate market. Enquirers from all
parts of the country continue to come
this way, and many of these see lit to
remain, firmly believing that Kittitas
is the coming country so far as the
home of a choice winter apple, with
fine keeping qualities is concerned
During the past 80 days many trans
fers of land have been recorded, and In
this direction, it is gratifying to notice
that the majority of the buyers are
here to stay, are already taking steps
to improve their property, and that in
not few instances, the purchasers are
men from other parts of this State who
have spent years in the country, and
are therefore in position to know what
section of the country is likely to come
to the front
The present demand continues along
the lines of ten to twenty acres tracts
upon which to make permanent home
and engage in the profitable business OF
horticulture.
Even at this stage of development, it
has been clearly demonstrated that no
better winter apple can be produced in
the West than is raised right here in
the kittitas valley. The most advanced
horticulturists agree that the long suit
of the fruit business is and must ever
remain the production of choice
winter apple with good keeping.quallty.
Such a variety of fruit will always have
its place in the markets of the world,
and in this commodity, we have in the
fruit business what wheat is to the pro-
ducers of graa,-a staple that can be
kept on hand at the discretion of the
producer during any temporary iaii OF
the market price. The same cannot be
said of the more uncertain and perish
able fruits produced in such enormous
quantities in other sections of the
State, and going on.this as basis, there
is no doubt in the minds of the best in
formed men but that the land resting
under the conditions most suitable for
the production OF the fine apple OF good
keeping qualities will ultimately com
mand the highest prices of all the fruit
lands of this country.
Nowhere in the West, can choice
fruit land be purchased for so little
money as it may be obtained in this
section of the country, and in this light
it is only question of time, when with
the turning of the sunlight OF publicity
on the fertile lands of kittitas, -klttl
tas the land of plenty-there will be a
great enhancement OF values in this
section, and it would seem that this is
the view held by the numerous buyers
who have recently invaded the valley,
an invasion that spells well for the
future growth and development OF the
country as we'll as the city of Ellens-
| burg.

FIRE CHIEF ANSWERS
SOME CRITICISMS

AS fire chief of the fire department
of the city of Ellensburg, l desire to
say in regard to the criticisms at the
recent fire at F. c. Westcott's mill re-
lative to the use OF the engine:
lst.-My reason for setting the en-
CINE at the point l did, was to be in
position to protect the warehouse dis
trict without resetting in case the hre
spread in that direction.
2nd.-By going to the hydrant that !
did, I was able to save block OF hose
that was badly needed at the fire. 70
save the warehouse opposite the mill.
At the same time, had two streams OF
water playing on the fire, before TINS
one was laid, the first being laid wlthln
thirty seconds after arriving on the
scene.
3rd.-Some are wanting to know why
the engine started and stopped. IL
was started in order to fill the boiler
beirg otherwise in first class condltlo n
for fire fighting.

Leg weakness in ducks when not
due to cold, damp quarters is usually
the result of an insufficient supply Of
green food. Ducks should be plenti-
fully supplied with green stuff. When
fresh cut rye, corn fodder, grass and
clover cannot be had, they should
have ensllage, cut clover hay or al
falfa. DO not grain them too heavily.
Give green food freely or get them out
on a grass range.

ILLINOIS CHAUTAUQUA
Progress of the Tent Campagn-New Voters
Won for the Party in Prairie
State Towns

From the Staate Headquarters BulIetiu]
The sixth week of Illinois Chautaquas June
1921, was the most successful thus far this sea-
son, both from financial standpoint and in at
tendance The towns comprising the circuit
were Litchfeld, Girard, Auburn, Ashland and
Jacksonville. Girard broke all records for this
year, selling three hundred and thirty-ive sea-
son tickets and the total receipts being almost
five hundred dollars. The Hon. E. w. Chain
visited two of the towns during the week and
appeared on the program extra attraction.
New converts to the party, especially among the
old soldiers, reported as a result of this
weeks Chautauqua campaign.
The seventh week of the Chautaquas closed
June %, the towns being Mt Auburn, Decatur,
Lovlngton, Nation and Tuscola. In nearly all
the towns the press very favorable. Tus-
cola was the best town of the week. audiences
OF from six hundred to thousand people taxing
the capacity of the tent, especially of the night
sessions The towns in this weeks circuit range
in population from six hundred to forty thou
sand, yet the assemblies held in the smaller
towns seemed to be more successful than those
held in the larger cities. One commendable fea-
ture of the work, CLEANED from the reports this
week, IS that these assemblies popularized Pro-
hlbltlon and removed much of the prejudice
against the Prohibition party at the same time
making many new votes
