George Rogers Reed Is Called by
His Chief to Report for Furth-
er Duty at Portland

George Rogers Reed, of Portland
Ore, who had charge here of the
special weather service in connec-
ton with the frost reports, was on
Monday summoned to Portland by his
chief, Mr.. Beals, who has decided that
there is no further need here this
year of the services of Mr.. Reed. Mr.
Beals, however, is providing for =
frost service here next spring and II
is the hope of those who have en-
countered Mr.. Reed that he may be
the selection, provided that he is not
promoted to something better before
that time. The Yakima valley found
Mr.. Reed to be a careful, painstaking
official with d consid cradle knowledge
OF the fruit business and the needs
of such a community as this and an
Xious to establish here a proper foun-
dation for the service of succeeding
years
Heaters Are Essential
That orchard heaters are an es-
sential in every progressive fruit pro-
ducing section is the opinion of Mr..
Reed but he points out that those
who adopt the heaters should be
careful to provide themselves with an
adequate number for each acre as it
is worse than useless to attempt to
protect the buds and young fruit with
an insufficient number of pots. He
calls attention to the fact that Med
ford and other progressive fruit sec
tions have made the pots perma ncnt
Improvement and its use general and
believes that when the Yakima valley
becomes more of specially district

This Is the Claim Made Against
Captain Thomas by Residents
&C.,. . Of Old Town
HE SAYS THE LAND is
NOT IN CORPORATION
But That 1t IL His Private Proper.
ty and That He Has q Right to
Assert His Ownership If He So
Chooses

Whether Captain j. Fl. Thomas has
the right to fence UP and close GER
tain streets in Yakima City il a ques
ton which the courts of Yakima
county may be called upon to decide
He has so fenced the streets and the
fencing has been torn down and the
parties are now lined up in direct
opposition to each other as to their
rights. Attorney Livesey is represent
ing, those who protects against the ac-
ton of Captain Thomas.
Large tracts in Yakima City are
owned by Captain Thomas, who is the
biggest property holder of townsite
property in the. old town. Claiming
that his. land was. not within the cor
porate limits of the city and that the
streets were not public property Cap
tain Thomas caused certain streets
to be closed. Some people say the
property is within the corporate lin
its and that the streets are public
property. They contend, moreover
that the streets have been in use for
score of years as such and are the
property of the public. They contend
further that if the right of Captain
Thomas prevails certain people will
be denied access to or egress from
their homes except over his land As
still further claim thew assert that
the property to which Captain Thorn
as has laid claim has been plated
and that the plas have never been
vacated.
Unusual Situations
There are two or three unusual
situations at Yakima City. Another
is that Ca plain Thomas, who gave to
the Northern Pacific railway it's land
and depot there has been unable To
get from that corporation a right of
way for street extension to the new
depot of the o. W. r. & n. railway.
Still another is that the o. W. r. a.
\. railway, though passing right pa st
Yakima City, is shut off from it nv
reason of the fact that the Northern
PACING right of way lies between t
and the town and no avenue across
the n. p. tracks can be obtained. that
company ignoring any letters or
comm unications sent to it, Still an
other popularity of the situation is
that many people have requested that
the o. w. r. & n. railway instead OF
making its station at Yakima CITY.
where presumably there is popula-
ton, make it at the crossing of the
Ahtanum road as being more con-
venient for larger number of pros
pective patrons of the railway.

Future for Jordan.
Whether Jordan river is navigable
and whether IL would be worth while
as a channel OF commerce have been
points much mooted for many years.
History of the early days of Salt
Lake shows that Brigham Young be.
lieved in this system. before the ad-
vent of the railroad, and had fairly
well determined plan to use the
stream for commerce between Utah
and Salt Lake counties, with sys.
TEN of navigable canals running as
lateral streams of commerce. But the
coming of the railroads exploded the
proposition at that time, though in
the very early stages IL is said that
a few boats did play the waters of he
Jordan and did a good business.
But from time to time during later
years there has been much discussion
as to the feasibility of such scheme
whether IT were practicable, and if
practicable, whether there was suffi
cient commerce to warrant the ex,
penditure OF money to make the
stream navigable. II is for the purpose
of determining this point that Congress
