HUGE WATER PROJECT
EVOLVED BY FARMERS

Quincy, March 19.-The final report
of Engineer Jacobs, employed by the
Quincy Valley Water Users Assocla-
ton for four months has been re-
ceived. His commission was to make
a preliminary survey of system to
bring water 1or the irrigation OF $780,
900 acres, known as the Quincy valley,
and the report is of absorbing inter-
est to this valley and almost the
whole of Southern Grant county.
Mr.. Jacobs investigated six plans OF
putting water on the area. He favors
bringing water from the Wenatcnee
river and lake at an aggregate cost
of $2S,672,7s3, or $9S.S3 per acre for
watering 100000 acres. This supply
would have to be siphoned under the
Columbia river in tunnel 100 feet De-
meath its bed.
Engineer Jacobs says climatic condl-
lions in this valley are superior 70 tue
Wenatchee, Yakima or Sunnyside ols'
tricts. and as the soil is equal, espe-
cially to the Sunnyside district, the
valley would be ideal for growing
fruits under irrigation. For growing
Grains he estimates the land 70 pc
worth. under water, 5000 to $Soo per
core and in fruit, especially trees
around ten years of age, the lana
would be worth $1,000 to $4,000 an
acre. .,,.u

several eastern capitalists are Wiling
to buy the bonds, and the two propo-
sitions will be put to vote should the
nrasent report be received favorably.

Yesterday afternoon was the last
"at home" OF Mrs. Augustus E. Will

full and altogether unconventional af-
fairs have been a decided bright
spot in the social life of the capital.
and It win be learned with regret
that there will be no more. Mrs.
Wilson never booked so handsome or
50 graceful as yesterday afternoon
when she stood to receive her
friends in an imported gown of en-
moldered black net. This creation
was most suitable to her style of
beauty and the gown was the subject
of many slde-whispered compliments
Miss Warren appeared in a charming
gown of pale blue silk and both she
and Mrs. Wilson wore large corsage
bouquets Of violets The decorations
yesterday afternoon were in pink
roses and vlolets. The tea table was
most attractive in its appointments
and many home and out-of-town
guests called at the mansion between
the hours of and 6. The last day
OF these at homes was the best day,
for again there were many visitors in
the city for the ball last night and all
called to pay their compliments 10
the occupants of the mansion. Mrs.

this month the anniversary of the ae-
cident that has caused her to forego
giving many entertainments, declares

MARCH.


Cometh March, with wind and rain,
Smashing on the window pane.
Little zephyrs here anu there
Llfting roofs high In the air,
Blowing hats from A to q;
Raising thunder on the sea.
Filling all the air with dust,
On their mad boreal bust.
Now and then we hear the hum
of the billiards frolicsome,
As about the land they track.
Giving early spring a whack;
Filling all the ways with snow,
Setting plumbers hearts aglow,
Raising thunder with the car
OF the trolleys near and far.
Now and then a robins peep
Tells us somewhere life is "cheep."
And the rose gives us the laugh
At nine dollars and a half,
For it knows that Casters moon
VIII be shining very soon.
And amid this wintry scene
Cometh March the Seventeen.
Marvel month this month of March.
Filling up our souls with starch:
Now lion. now a lamb,
Now a blat, and now a slam
How II fills the soul with cheer
That it comes but once a year,
From Judge.
