Put in a Big Pump.

1.-The work Of irrigating and plant
ing will be done under the super
vision of my son, Bert Berry, who is
civil engineer He has arranged
for 16-inch centrifugal pump with
$50 horsepower Corliss compound
engine at a cost of $4,000. This
will be used to elevate water 80 feet
from the Columbia furnishing 5000
gallons per minute to over One-half
the tract. Next year we intend to
duplicate this plant and furnish the
entire peninsula with water.
eve have already sold over 400
acres of this land, including the wa
ter rights, for $500 an acre, to first
class merchants of New York, Chica-
go and Denver, realizing 100000
from Sc contracts. This should de-
fray most of the expense of improv-
ing the tract. At the end of four
years we anticipate the land will
yield $500 per acre annually and in
seven or eight years $1,000 per
acre"
Mr.. Berry and his associates took
this land under option late last De-
cember and have just taken up the
option at a large figure. They de-
cided some time ago to take up this
land and have been going ahead and
pushing the work on the tract. The
men will expend a large sum in de-
veloping this land before marketing
it. Mr.. Berry, as we'll as Messrs.
Crewdson and Pershing, will build
fine residences on the land and will
own large tracts individually. They
expect to put in lot of other i'm
provements, including fruit dryer
and canning factory. In addition,
about 900 other acres will be irri-
gated under the same system.

ACRES.

The largest transfer ever made in
northern Douglas county property
was consummated last week when the
$500 acre tract of land owned bv
the Bridgeport Land company was
purchased by Sam Berry of Spokane
and his friends at price approx

chase:
This tract of land, known as
Bridgeport Orchards, containing q
800 acres has about 10 miles of wa
ter front along the Columbia and is
directly across the river from Brew
ster flats at the junction of the Okla
hogan and Columbia rivers 1t is on
a sort of peninsula, four and a half
miles wide at the neck, across which
we will construct our ditch. The
land slopes gradually to the lowest
point at an elevation of one and one
half feet to the mile.

PAPER SAYS NEW
ROAD WILL BE BUILT ACROSS
NORTHERN PART OF STATE
THROUGH BIG BEND.

Here's the latest-that James J.
Hill is to build another railway
across the state from Bellingham to
Spokane.
There seems to be no longer any
question about j. J. Hills intention
to build line of railroad across the
Cascade mountains east from the
present eastern terminus of the Ana
cortes-Rockport branch of the Great
Northern, asserts the Bellingham
Herald The surveyors who have
been running lines up the Cascade
river for the past month or two are
still forging through the snow, which
is about two feet deep where they
are working, as rapidly as possible.
Additional evidence that the Hill line
is to be built comes with the well
authenticated report that Samuel
Hill, son-in-law of J. J. Hill, has 35.-
900 acres of land in the Methow val
ley, through which the proposed road
will run.

TAX ASSESSMENTS
 WILL BE RAISED

Dadevilfe, July n-(SpeciaL)-Ju J. J. Mitchell, president of the state board Of tax commissioners, was in Dadeville several days last week for the purpose of raising the tax assessments of those who had turned In their property at ratings too low. It is not definitely known just what was done in that line, but 1t is un- derstood that several pieces of property here in Dadeville, and one or two large tracts of land near here, had taxes upon them raised, and 1t Is rumored that the work is just begun, and that many tax payers will be affected.
 Herren Bros, prominent business men of this place, were in Birmingham last week. and while there made an important real estate deal. They exchanged their building on the northwest corner of the square here, known as the Herren build ing, and the largest business house in Dadeville, for a building just the same size on Fifth avenue, in Birmingham, paying a difference in cash. It is not known to what use the new owners of the Dadeville building will put 1t.

HOW THEY STARTED.
Famous Men Were Good Commercial
 Travellers.

From Everybody's Magazine
 Marshall Field was a commercial trav- eler; so were John Wanama CT and Tom Murray. So also were Dwight L. Moody, the great evangelist and Richard Cob den, the famous English statesman and writer. Ex-Gov. Frank Black of New York followed the road" with his sam pie cases before beginning his legal and political career. Walter D. Moody, ono of the chief executives of the Chicago Association of Commerce and author of Men Who Sell Things" was for 15 years a road salesman. This list might be ex- tended almost indefinitely.
 Occasionally the commercial traveller leaves t--e road to enter one of the pro- fessions. Milton J. Foreman, one of the leaders of the Chicago bar, president of the Chicago Charter association, alder man, and a power in local politics. was star hat salesman and took his law books on the road with him until he was well grounded in the rudiments of the profession.
 Another commercial traveller, Charles N. Crewdson, took a course ~ the Uni versity of Chicago after he was married. There he became interested in Egyptology and later, between his regular commer- cial trips on the road. visited Egypt and studied the ancient ruins at first hand. This brought him into print in a series of travel articles, and he found that he could write. and write well. Later he began to draw upon his experience as a commercial traveller for literary material and scored a success and a national rep utation. But he resoiutely withstood all temptation to be drawn away from the road. His work kept him in touch with the world of affairs, and one day his n stobt af ba to start a novel business enterprise Ion the side" His road partner" became his actual partner in the new enterprise. Their work for their respective houses took them where they most needed to go in the interest of their private venture. Today one of these men draws salary of S12.000 and the other a little less than that while their private venture proba- bly, yields them more than they earn from their regular calling.
