GROWTH Of TE[E-
PHONE PLANT
AN AVERAGE OF 5000 CALLS
PER DAY ANSWERED BY NINE
OPERATORS - NEW SWITCH
ROARD BEING INSTALLED.

A few years ago, when the Farmers
Telephone & Telegraph company pur-
chased what was known as the Whi-
ted building on Mission street, there
was a great plenty of room, in fact
for a time the entire down stairs was
occupied by the city for Offices. Now
the building is full of intricate ma
chinery and mechanism that goes
goes with an up to date telephone
plant. H. C. Littlefield, secretary OF
the company, stated this morning that
the plant would invoice $4,000. The
demands are SO great on the system
that new improvements have con-
stantly to be added This week a
new multiple switchboard is being
placed. With the present board the
day operators have too much to do
Rand with the new board it will allow
of another operator, dividing the
work. During the past week checks
have been made on calls and it has
been found that the operators aver
age about 5000 calls per day. There
are about 1900 phones in now and
40 were added last month, and there
are a large number of applicants now
which will be accommodated just as
soon as the operating crew can get
around to the installation.
Nine operators are employed, Mrs.
Cooper, Mrs. May, Misses Dudley,
Wise, Parsons, Wilson, Adams, Park
er and Clulow.
The Wenatchee Produce company
has just had installed by the local
company very practical telephone
system for its business. 1t consists
of six phones in different parts of the
building. One phone can ring the
other without calling central. Cen
trail can also be called from each OF
these phones and also from the build
ing phones the Cashmere and Malaga
warehouses can be called without
calling central.

gave THE NAME TO BURCH
FLAT.

Mrs. E. o. Burch, of Seattle, sister
of X. j. Cummins, arrived here this
week from. Seattle for a visit in the
Cummins home.
Twenty-four years ago the 10th
day of July Mr.. and Mrs. Cummins
and Mr.. and Mrs. Burch left San
Francisco. They came almost di-
rectly to this valley and the Burch
and the Cummins families each took
up 100 acre homesteads or what is
now the prosperous appearing and
fruitful Sunnyslope settlement. Mr.
Burch died here and the family re-
moved to Seattle. Mrs. Burch oc-
casionally revisits the scene of her
former home and always has a warm
spot in her heart for the Wenatchee
valley. One of the most interesting
features of the Seattle exposition was
prepared by Mrs. Burch. 1t was in
the form of a human hair panorama
of the fair and attracted a great deal
of attention.

MORROW AFTERNOON AT 2:3O
WITH EVERETT.

Wenatchee is expected to appear in
a great deal better form than last
Saturday at the football game which
is to be played tomorrow afternoon
at Recreation park, with the Everett
team. Though Everett has very
strong team and is playing in cham
pionship style and has swept every
thing before 1t so far, yet Wenatchee
has so much confidence in itself that
it expects to defeat the team which
defeated Snohomish by a score OF AZ
to and the Broadway team OF Sc
attic to the tune of Is to 0.
The boys are expecting great deal
better crowd than witnessed the game
last Saturday. Buses will run from

WANT NEW JAIL
ESTIMATES
COMMISSIONERS INSTRUCTED
PAULLY JAIL co. TO FURNISH
ESTIMATES FOR A STRUCTURE
TO BE BUILT IN SPRING.

The board of county commissioners
finished its session last night. UP to
noon yesterday the session was de-
voted to fixing the county tax levy
for the coming year. Yesterday after
noon, however, bills were allower and
minor matters transacted. The most
important matter of yesterday after
noon was the discussion regarding a
new Jail for the county. Plans and
specifications have been furnished by
the Paully Jail Co. but these were
not accompanied by estimates of cost.
This company was notified to submit
to the coming meeting of the county
commissioners estimates for the
building. The board estimates that
it will cost in the neighborhood of
$4,000 to erect the character of
building it has in mind. 1t is plan
ned to have IL steel cells down stairs
and the steel tank in the old Jail will
be moved into the new structure and
will furnish accommodations for
about IL prisoners in all. 1t is the
plan to use the upstairs for offices
for the time being. 1t will also fur
nish quarters for the juvenile and
women delinquents and after the
county grows and the necessity for
more accommodations is felt the up
per floor can be arranged to accom-
modate as many persons as the lower
floor. On account of the advanced
season there will be nothing done on
the building of the jail until the COM
ing spring. The board adjourned last
night.

MUCH FRUIT IS
PROMISED
ASSISTANT MANAGER OF THE
NATIONAL APPLE SHOW HERE
YESTERDAY - GREAT MANY
CARLOAD LOT EXHIBITS.

w. D. Finley, assistant manager of
the National Apple show of Spokane,
spent yesterday in the valley. This
trip was for the purpose Of arousing
an interest in the local growers to-
wards making an exhibit at Spokane
Mr.. Finley stated that great many
of the growers here do not appreciate
the fact that the National Apple show
board has made concessions in the
ratings. This was done when two
eastern and an Oregon Judge were
selected to act in conjunction with
Judge Van Deman. These judges
were instructed to pass upon the
merits of the different exhibits and
to take into consideration the local
conditions. From here Mr.. Finley
goes to Oregon, taking in Medford
and the Rogue River valley and he
expects to be continuously on the
road until the date of the National
Apple show.
Mr. Finley states that the National
Apple show has very liberal promises
of carload exhibits from districts
which are generally considered out
side Of the real apple belt. Two car
lots of Jonathans are promised from
Pennington; one car load of Yellow
Newtowns from ]. L. Dumas, Day
ton; one car load of Grimes Golden
from the Sawyer Land company, Sun
nyside; one car of Jonathans from
Waitsburg; one of Jonathans from
Moscow; one of Rome Beauty from
Moscow; one of Wagners from Green
Bluffs and two mixed cars from Gar
field.

In the worlds championship Sc
ries which began today the long
hoped-for event came to pass-Wag-
ner and Cobb will play against each

A. Il. COURTWAY HEAD OF COM.
PANY WHICH WILL PUSH IN
VENTTON OF #. j. CLIFFORD
PUMP ADAPTED TO COLUMBIA.

Articles of Incorporation have been
filed in Olympia and with the county
auditor for new corporation with
its principal place of business at We
natchee. The stockholders met last
evening at the Office of Attorney o.
M. Thomson and organized by elect
ing directors and other officers. The
directors are as follows: F. ]. Cliff
ford, r. T. Woodruff, A. B. Court
way. w. A. Montgomery, T. A. Ros-
son, G. w. Reed and l.. H. Breese
The officers elected last night were
A. B. Courtway, president; J. F.
Weber, vice president: o. M. Thoma-
son, secretary-treasurer; F. J. Cliff
ford, general manager.
The object of this company is to
manufacture and sell pumps for irri-
cation purposes. The pump is de-
signed and patented by Mr.. Clifford
and is especially adapted to use on
the Columbia and northwest rivers.
It's strong points are that it has, as
the name indicates (Straightdrive r.
rigation Pump company, a straight
drive, thus eliminating side draft. 1t
throws a continual stream of water
at less cost per horsepower and is ad-
Unstable to river bank of any de-
gree of slope. 1t is simple and strong
in construction, and by the removal
of five nuts the whole plunger-rod,
sucker-pipe, valves and all can be re-
moved and repaired without scarcely
any loss of time. If the pump will
do all, or even half that is claimed
for it, it will be boon to the ranch
er who has to pump water On his
land. No well, platform or sliding
track is necessary to install tit is
placed on permanent foundation
and the rise and fall of the river will
not effect 1t in the least.
Mr.. Clifford, the designer and pat
entee of this pump, has been hand
ling engines and pumps for the past
ten years and has for the past season
been installing pumps on the Colum-
bia river for the International Har-
vester company. 1t was in this work
that he met with a constant demand
for a pump such as he believes he has
designed. The pump will range in
size from so to 500 gallons per min
ute and will deliver water 100 to 125
feet. The castings, for the present,
will be made in Spokane and assem-
bled here in Mr.. Woodruff's machine
shop. BY next season the company
expects to have well equipped fac
tory here.

Degeneracy of Colored Minstrelsy.

A number of colored hued men
have appeared on the streets today.
They are members of troupe which
will show in the local play house this
evening. From the time of the great
Primrose & West colorei minstrels
there have been all kinds of imitat-
ors until in the last few years the
colored minstrelsy has degenerated
into a mere farce, failing to attract
in any country. The worst barn
storming aggregations that have
shown In this town have been colored
minstrels and the local play goers
will have to have very certain guar
antee that the performance is all
right before they can be induced to
pay out their good money.

One Orchard Will Net $4,000.

Blackman Bros. will have a crop
this year which will net them $20,-
900, the value of the crop approxi-
mating that of last year, which paid
them $21, 900 after paying for pick
ing, packing and marketing. In the
Blackman Bros. orchard there are SO
acres of 5, and Z year old trees.
Five acres of these trees were graft
ed this year and consequently will not
produce until next year or the year
after.
Of the year old trees there are
500. These will yield three boxes
each on the average, Last year, when
they were 4 years old they averaged
about half a box to the tree. The
balance OF the orchard, containing q
500 trees, will average 6 boxes to the
tree. Two years ago when the or
chard was only 3, and years old
it netteu- the owners $4,000. The
crop this year will &C to New York
and part of 1t to England

being cut into city lots and being
located in the vicinity of the old town
site of Wenatchee. E. Blackman, IL
telling a World representative o1
their orchard, laughingly remarked
that IL years ago a man in this val
ley offered them 500 for ten acres
of this land. He refused. however
to give any name but that gentleman
will probably remember the incidea
when he reads this article. The Black
man Bros. from this time on for al
least 20 years may expect their or
chard to net them each year from
$500 to $1,000 per acre.
The three Blackman brothers hav.
been in business together for the pas
40 years-a fact in itself of no small
interest.

Six Acres Will Net 81. 900.

Ellsworth France has six acres of
bearing orchard which will net him
close to $4,000 this year, after paying
expenses of picking, packing and mar
keting. He has 1870 Arkansas Blacks
nine years old which will average
from 8 to 9 boxes per tree: 100 Wine
saps from to 9 years old which will
average between 5 and boxes to the
tree. He has IS acres in orchard
which will be in bearing in two or
three years.

Quinn Orchard Will Net $500.

John Quinn, owning five acres on
Murray avenue, will have $500 at
the end of the season this year 70
show for his years work on five acres,
only one-third of which bore fruit this
year. A large part of Mr.. Quinn s
orchard is in young trees not old
enough to bear and part of which
bore so heavily last year will yield
but light crop this year. Mr. Quinn
purchased this place from w. w.
Gray in February, 1908. paying for
it $500. 1t is probable that the
place will pay for itself after paying
expenses within the next two years.
