WILL CONSTRUCT
RESERVOIR
OLD NASLIN RANCH TO BE WA
TERED AND DIVIDED INTO
SMALL TRACTS AND PLANTED
TO FRUIT.

A reservoir that will hold a hall
million gallons of water will be con.
structed on the Naslin ranch, about
a mile above Koehler's Landing, on
the Columbia river, and will be used
to irrigate the three hundred acre
tract. The total cost to Murdoch and
Freaney, who are having the work
done, will be about $4,000. A pump
ing plant will also be installed to
supply the water. The size of res
ervoir will be 160x56x10 feet.
Wright & Meridith, who have the
contract for the construction of the
reservoir, will leave Wednesday to
begin the work. Excavations have
already been made and they will put
in the concrete base and walls. The
walls will be IS inches at the base
and s inches at the top. Although
the work of construction was held
up for some time on account Of the
railway blockades, it will be pushed
rapidly and will soon be ready for
use.

JNO. P. NELSON
Jeweler and Optometrist.

If congress is really desirousa of
doing something to guard against
such abuses as may exist in the APP
pie business of this country, it ought
to compel apple growers in other
parts of the country to follow the
example of Washington growers, in
stead of trying to pull the growers
of this state down to the level Of
growers of other sections.
Consumers have no quarrel with
Washington apple growers, either on
account of the quality of the fruit,
or on account Of short measure. Be-
cause of these facts the popularity of
| the Washington apple has steadily
increased; the demand for 1t at home
and abroad is a growing demand,
and the national government should
do nothing to interfere with this
growth. Apples of the finest quail
ity, in full measure boxes, is the
practical working rule of Washington
growers. Let them alone.-Seattle

SALE AWAKENED.
SENTIMENT
ALTHOUGH COUNCILMEN SEEM
AGREED TO SELL CITY PLANT
MANY CITIZENS QUESTION THE
ADVISABILITY OF 1T.

II think that the city should i'm
prove its water system by any means,
either by sale or by our own efforts,
was the dictum of c. B. Halbert, one
of the members of the city council,
today, in regard to the water situa-
tion Most of the members of the
council seemed to be still in favor
of the sale of the city plant though
they did not want to be interviewed
on the subject for publication.
Some of the members of the coun-
Gil think that the city will be able to
sell the old plant to a private cor
poration that will furnish water for
the city at a maximum rate not
higher than the present. rate.
Outside of the council the senti-
ment seems to be chrystalizing. Both
sides has its supporters. DR.. Culp
seems to think that the sale of the
waterworks to private corporation
would be the worst possible attempt
ed solution of the problem. Con-
siderable agitation has been going on
and it is probable that there will be
some determined efforts to restrain
the council if the matter is taken up
too hastily All are agreed that the
water system should be improved, but
they are not agreed as to whether a
private or the public corporation
should be the improver.

Full Measure Apple Boxes.

Apples grown in Washington are
packed in standard boxes; the trade
has approved the standard, and there
is no reason why congress should I'M
dertake to interfere with the stand
ard adopted and used in this state.
Protests made against the Lafean
bill, now before congress, by repre-
sentatives of the apple growers Of
this state, ought to be needed by con-
gress. The boxes used in this state
are full measure boxes. The apples
grown here are carefully picked, care
fully sorted and carefully packed for
shipment, and the popularity of the
Washington apple in the domestic
and foreign market Is largely due
to the care thus exercised by apple
growers.

North Yakima, Wash, March a.
The commercial club has received a
letter from Congressman Miles Poin-
dexter, reporting upon the receipt OF
resolutions opposing the Lafean APP

poets, he thinks, are excellent for de-
feating the measure. Chicago job

the bill. but says that some valuable
demonstrations were made in favor
of the standard box now in use in the
northwest.
