Eighteen hundred acres of Column

by j. B. Mahr to Mr. Welch of New
York, of the WEIGH Grape Juice COM

Mr.. Welch had decided, after investi-
cation, to invest in White Bluffs acre
age, but whether his purchase is for
vineyard purposes or for speculation
does not appear clear. 1t is reported,
however, that he proposes to plant the

Meetings of Trustees of Valleys of
the Yakima Water Users AS
ISOLATION Held Friday at Office
of Attorney Ralph Williamson

The board of trustees Of the VAL
leys of the Yakima Water Users as
sociation, otherwise known as the
High Line canal people, held a
meeting Friday. December s, at the
office of Attorney Ralph Williamson.
Routine business was transacted and
letters read from two representatives
of capital seeking information regard
ing the purchase of the bonds which
may finally be issued when a con-
struction company is organized to
build the ditch. From the number
of inquiries of this character which
have thus far been received by the
board it is very evident that there is
plenty of money to be had for legiti-
mate propositions of this character
which are in position to offer as Sc
curity good lands at proper valua-
ton, and to show practicable engi-
neering scheme.
Just now the board Is investigating
the feasibility of an Independent line
from Badger Pocket west to the river
above Ellensburg and slightly below
Lake Gle Elum, which will avoid the
necessity of using the Kittitas high
line canal through Dudley canyon
and which, if feasible, will probably
mean less expensive line.
AS to any definite scheme for
financing the project. there have been
several alternate plans proposed, but
until the engineering questions of the
upper position of the line have been
settled SO that prospective investors
may send their engineers to investi-
gate, it has been decided 20 leave that
matter in allegiance.
1t is self evident that there will
be no difficulty in adopting a plan
once it is known Just what will be
required by the financial hackers

A type OF building that Is becoming

that this process, while supplying

otherwise, in view OF the great ad-
