UTAH SURVEYOR
COMES HERE
COLUMBIA VALLEY LANDS 4
DEVELOPMENT co. SECURED
WELL KNOWN ENGINEER TO
TAKE THAT END OF BUSINESS.

1t has been learned that the Co
lumbia Lands & Development com
pany has made arrangements with E
l.. Hiatt of Bingham Canyon, Utah
to take the active management OF
the engineering end of the Column
bia Valley Lands & Development
company. Mr.. Hiatt has had many
years experience as an irrigation and
mining engineer and is thoroughly
capable in either of the two lines
mentioned.
Mr.. Hiatt spent last week looking
over the up-river country, sizing UP
the mining interests and irrigation
projects about to be promoted, to-
gether with various tracts of land on
which water will be pumped in the
near future. The Columbia Valley
Lands & Development company has
secured several contracts of land for
irrigation projects, among which are
$50 acres in the Moses coulee, 700
acres near Quincy, 1000 acres near
Spokane, 500 acres or Whereabouts at
the mouth of the Methow and sew
eral others of lesser Importance.
In an interview with Messrs. Col
bert & Elliott at their Office this
morning it was learned that the Co.
lumbia Valley Lands & Development
company consists of F. r. Colbert,
E. NJ. Elliott, r. R. Ellinwood and f.
L. Hiatt The company is in three
departments and any one of the de-
partments is prepared to take up a
specific piece of work coming under
its department and carry it through
in its entirety, whether it be the sur
veying of a piece of land and the
drawing thereof, the laying out and
installation of irrigation bitches, the
designing and building OF dams or
reservoirs, the designing and installa-
ton Of power plants and power plant
machinery or the selling thereof. The
real estate department is organized
TO give conscientious and earnest eff
fort In buying or selling a specific
piece of real estate, and it is a we'll
known fact that Mr.. Ellinwood as the
manager, will, no doubt. meet with
success, inasmuch as he has displayed
decided sales ana advertising ability
together with his way of pushing
things, that produces results. Mr.
Ellinwood has taken over the Bar
nard & Bates interest in Lake We
natchee and has for sale some three
The Wenatchee daily world. [volume] (Wenatchee, Wash.) 1905-1971, 1909-07-28

hundred odd lots on this beautiful
mountain lake, whose future as a
summer resort doubtless oyershadows
anything else in the state. Mr.. Ell
linwood will also handle local Wenat-
chez properties and is today looking
for several real good buys for clients
OF his who are here seeking locations.
The promotional department of the
Columbia Valley Lands & Develop
ment company has in view solely the
promotion, development and selling
for individuals tracts of land that
prove worthy of careful investigation.
Its success in making good and ac-
tually selling tracts can be seen best
perhaps in the wonderful success
shown in the handling of the Methow
valley land.
