CHANGE MOXEE LANDS
INTO IDEAL ORCHARDS
Central Washington Investment 8
Power Company Will Handle
Project.

Building of large irrigation sys-
tenn and power plant to irrigate over
100 acres of land in the Mckee val
ley, laying out of ideal orchard tracts
along lines of contour of the country
and supplying of them with every
modern convenience, are part Of
the plan of the Central Washington
Investment e Power Co.. ;rcorDorat-
ed on Saturday with q capital #
100000.
Behind the project are three Of
the best known corporation men Of
the Yakima valley, men who have
been influential in many development
enterprises: George 8. Rankin.
Alex McCredy and J. o. Gull. The
land to be improved and the water
rights to be utilized are those of the
former. and partial plans for the en-
terprise have been previously an
nounced.
According to the articles Of In
corporation of the company. the or
sanization is empowered to enter in
to all projects for irrigation, land
development, plating of towns, agri-
cultural and horticultural business.
development Of electric power for
lighting and other uses and securing
of franchise for gas, water and other
public service companies.
It is expected that number Of
these powers will be utilized in the
one enterprise, for it is known that
the plans made by Rankin include
the supply of modern conyeniences
to the men securing land under the
new canal. The company will also
be in a position to handle further
enterprises taken over by the incor-
porators.
The Selah-Moxee canal Is now be-
ing enlarged to handle the surplus
water needed to supply tho high line

stakeholder offered to sell. The re-
suit was the listing of many shares
for sale and for purchase at the par
value, provided that the present sur
plus be divided among the present
shareholders.
When this cooperative basis was
being perfected, A. T. Richardson of
Fruitvale suggested a new move, the
union to so into the buying and SELL
ing of merchandise for the benefit of
the fruit grower, and offered reso-
luton that the trustees be instructed
to purchase a carload of sugar to
sell to the fruit growers of the un-
ion. This resolution was promptly
voted down, but Secretary Irish
brought out the point that the union
might we'll purchase orchard supplies
of all kinds and sell them at a nom
inal profit to the stockholders.
Secretary Irish presented his an
nual report for 1908, showing the
business done by the union In var
ious lines through the seasons of
1906. 1907 and 1908. The growth
during the three years has been enor-
nous. from S6,27O boxes in 1906 to
264,929 boxes in 1908. The report
shows total resources of $65,231.-
CT, including $17,280 held as treas
ury stock, and shows an accumulation
of $61S4.67 as profits during four
years.
Secretary Irish finds that 23 OF the
large stockholders, representing 600
shares, who were present or repre-
scented at the meeting Saturday AFTER
noon, have indicated their willing
ness to part with all shares in excess
of 10. OF the "a smaller sharehold-
ers present, representing 154 shares,
all expressed a desire to purchase
sufficient stock to bring their hold
ings to 10 shares Mr.. Irish on Mon
day will send out a circular letter
to all members not present, request
ing them to state at as early date
as possible their wishes to either sell
or buy.

Don't resort to stimulating tonics. Such drugs
simply urge the already overworked stomach to
renewed exertions.
1t is like squirting tired horse. For momens
he responds. Then outraged Nature, reasserts it
self and he falls in heap. Sedatives are equally
ineffective. At first they deadeu pain, but after
ward comes the reaction, and keener suffering than
before.
What the stomach needs, is rest. TO obtain it,
q substitute must be found for the natural diges-
tive juices. Kodol is the only substitute which
accomplishes Natures results, by Natures own
methods.
1t gives the stomach perfect rest, by digesting
what you eat. No dieting is necessary. Eat all
the good food you want, build up the system and
ut the same time. relieve the stomach from all
responsibility. The rest will restore it to its
natural condition and soon effect complete cure.
This is the only rational and common sense
method Of aiding Nature.

CAPITAL STOCK TO BE s6,OOO,OOO.
Washburn- Crosby Company EnIarges
to Care for Increased Business.

The Washburn-Crosby Company,
capitalized now at $3600,000 with
general offices and principal group of
flour mills in Minneapolis, and mills
also at Buffalo, N. Y, Louisville, Ky.
Kalispell and Great Falls, Mont. will
increase its capital stock to $6,000,000.
The action was decided upon last
week.
The directors met in Minneapolis
Monday last and the matter was then
taken up. This announcement of an
addition of $2,400,000 to the capital
of the Minneapolis company will be
of wide interest to the milling indus
try of the United States and Europe.
The increase is made necessary by
the recent construction in Minneapo-
lis of a concrete fireproof grain eleya
tor with capacity for 100000 bushels;
the erection here Of new model
mill and the improvement of the old
er Minneapolis mills, In addition, the
company has recently completed
new mill and elevator in Buffalo, \.
Y. The companys capacity, includ-
ing the new Buffalo mill just com
pleted, is now 42,400 barrels of flour
day.
The Washburn-C Crosby company
has led every industrial corporation
in the world in business of the same
nature in the scope of its construc-
tive policy in the last ten years. and
HIS brought Minneapolis capital and
management into prominence in the
milling industry of the United States
in n degree not conceived of by the
early-day Minneapolis millers, who
concerned themselves only with de-
yelopment of the local end The
company followed the develop
ment of wheat production in
Montana by building close to that
source of raw material supply, and
it's entry into the eastern field has
given Minneapolis prominence not be
fore attained in that direction.
At the annual meeting James S.
Bell was reelected president; Will
liam II. Dunwoody first vice presi-
dent; John Washburn, second vice
president; c. J. Martin. secretary and
treasurer; and besides these officers,
who are on the board. the directors
elected were c. c. Bovey, f. G. Akin
son, Samuel Bell, Jr., of Philadelphia,
and John Crosby.
I'VE have no immediate plans for
further construction work in Min
neapolis," said James S. Bell, presi-
dent; but we have added greatly to
our Minneapolis plants in the last
year, and are prepared to make fur
ther additions at such future time as

MISSISSIPPI STATE FAIR.

The people of the State seem to be
joined in an effort to build up a
good, useful State Fair. The Fair
to be held in Jackson Oct. 26th to
Nov. 9Th is attracting attention in
every section in the State as well as
abroad. Premium lists have been
recast and added to over former sea-
sons, covering every class of prod
uct of the farm, also of various
handicrafts. The best citizens OF
Jackson r serving on the directo-
RAE without pay, and have employ
ed the best help to be obtained.
They have kept an open Office
throughout the year, and work is
we'll under way for opening up com.
plete. More space has been given
to the fine arts department. A large
new stock pavilion is being erected
for use of stock men of State. The
flower show, though not so large,
possibly represents as great skill
and as fine specimens as could be
found in some metropolitan show.
The poultry show is of special
worth, and has been one of the great
developments of the Fair move
iment. Another special feature will
be display of grain and forage crops.
President Taft will visit the Fair on
Nov. lst, and the Fair management
is preparing to entertain the great.
est crowd ever assembled in the
State. Every day will be filled with
something of special interest. Rates
on railroads from all points in the
State will be one-half fare for round
trip for the ten days period.
After a year of toll, and harvest
is mainly gathered, a little recrea-
tion and pleasure should be a part
OF the years program, and it is q
duty for US to slack up every now
and then and lay away toll and care.
Let US all determine to give our
selves and families q chance to smile
and to learn what the other part of
the world is doing. There is no
other way to keep abreast of the
times and know what is going on
close around US. The Fair manage
ment is exerting itself as never be-
fore to give its patrons the very best
entertainment and comforts that can
b obtaiped.
