FROST WITH
OIL F|REPOTS

North Yakima, Wash, April "a
The ranchers around Granger are
fighting the frost from their orchards
with petroleum fire pots. They have
also installed in some of the orchards
automatic frost alarms and the ex-
pertinent of saving the fruit crop in
that section is being watched with in
terest all through the valley. A car
load of firepots has been unloaded at
Granger and three carloads of crude
petroleum. Since last Saturday hum
dreds of firepots have been kept burn
ing in the orchards every night and
the air is heavy with the smoke of
the petroleum. The automatic frost
alarm is a simple device. A Their
mometer, to which is attached an
electric bell. which will be set off
when the mercury gets down to the
danger point, is placed in the orchard
with the bell in the rancher's house.

OPEN NEW FRUIT
LANDS
COMPANY OF YAKIMA MEN WITH
$50, 900 CAPITAL, ORGANIZED
FOR THAT PURPOSE-LAND
NEAR WHITE BLUFFS.

North Yakima, Wash, April "a
For the purpose of opening up large
territory on the Columbia river, II
miles above White Bluffs, six North
Yakima business men have formed a
corporation with capital stock OF
$4,000. Articles of incorporation
have been filed with the county au-
ditors of Yakima and Benton coun-
! ties and with the secretary of state
at Olympia. The company is COM
posed of J. o. Jeffrey, J. Van Payton,
E. c. Jeffrey, Henry H. Clapp, James
F. Zediker and B. F. Ritz. 1t is to
be known as the Columbia River
Fruit Lands company. The principal
place of business will be in North
Yakima.
To Install Pumping Plant.
The land lies near the point where
! the Hartford irrigation canal is taken
from the Columbia river and COM
prises all of section 80. A large pump
ing plant is to be installed in the
! Columbia river and water will be fur
nished not only for purposes of ir-
rigation but also for domestic use.
| The company owns land with a mile
at water frontage. Docks are to be
constructed and a town established.
The Hanford irrigation canal passes
| through the section but no water will
| be taken from that source. The COM
pany will be Independent of any other
company operating in that locality.
The articles filed yesterday indicate
that the company owns land with de-
posits of building stone and that it
will do an extensive business in that
line. The articles provide that the
company shall have the right to build
and operate railways, either by steam,
euectric or other motive power to and
from, around and across its own
! lands.
John o. Jeffrey, the principal
stakeholder, said this morning that
his company has a most ideal tract
! of fruit land, high and slightly and
we'll protected from frost. A plain
view of Douglas county with its roll
/ ing wheat fields is obtained from any
portion of the tract The Columbia
river makes a big bend near the prop
erty and one may see for miles up
| ana down the magnificent stream.
