The above represents the acreage
under water in the immediate terri
tory adjacent to Wenatchoc. The
statement shows that 3,140 acres are
watered by pumping plants, the pow
er for which is furnished by the We
natchee Electric company. 1t is ex-
pected that this company will fur
nish the power for double the pres
ent acreage next year, and the year
following more water will be pump
ed on the land by pumping propo-
sitions than is watercd ct he pres
cit time by the canals of the valley.
Besides the acreage watered by
pumps supplied by electricity
through the Wenatchee Electric
company. about 500 acres are wa
tered by gasoline power pumps. no.
tably that of the Valhalla Orchard
company, the Dallach Orchard COM
pany and some plants up the Column
bia river In addition 10 this there
are several hydraulic pumps in OPP
Grafton which take water from the
Columbia river or the Highline can
al, and about 200 acres are watered
by this means.
The Wenatchee Electric company
has made flat rate of $500 per
horsepower for the season or / cent
per horsepower per hour. Cheap
horsepower makes it possible for the
installation of pumping plants which
have for their object watering of
land that cannot be reached by gray
ity system canals, and each year a
large acreage of high land is being
brought under cultivation. The Sc
curing of an abundance of power
means that in the following years
thousands of acres will be reclaimed
and the management of the Wenat-
chez Electric company has no hest
fancy in saying that in two years
time this company will be furnishing
power for pumps for a larger acre
age than is now watered by the two
canals which at the present time fur
nish water for approximately 10000
acres of land in the territory imme-
diately adjacent to Wenatchee.
The following are the companies
and individuals who are securing wa
ter by pumping from the Highline
canal:

1.-The Passing of the Third Floor Back, -
In which Forbes Robertson, the eminent
English actor. will appear at the Belasco
Theater this week, is regarded as one of
the most daring plays seen in years upon

daring, not in the sense of impudence, but
because it tries 10 represent the enormous
power for good which reverence for 9TH

TO attempt representation OF Christian
spirit personified.
The first act represents boarding

ly woman. fighting fo- livelihood

dodgers are worse than the landlady.
Every one for himself and every one

sordid. All the Wit is unkind. all tie

Into such a society comes "a mysterious

to say are impossible things. lie does not
perform any. heroic deeds nor speak of

He simply appeals to their better solves
