looks back upon the years and years
during which vast sums have been

NOTED IRRIGATIONIST.

In an article on Marvin Chase, one
of the best known engineers and irri-
cation promoters in the west, recent
issue of the Wenatchee World has this
to say about the gentleman and the
plans he has in hand:
Nowhere is the approval by Mar
vim Chase of an irrigation project ac-
cepted as final more than in the We
natchee valley and in other places
where he has operated. In turning
his attention to the big irrigation pro-
jects in the Okanogan, Mr.. Chase en-
ters a large field and one that means
much to the whole North Central
Washington country.
Mr. Chase was the engineer who
handled the work of the Highline canal
which waters the Wenatchee valley
He is also the consulting engineer OF
the Wapato irrigation project at Che
Ian, covering thousands of acres of
the best soil to be found in this coun-
try.
Mr. Chase is president of the
Whitestone Irrigation & Power Co..
which is putting about 10000 acres of
the finest land in Okanogan county
under water. Some ditching has been
done on this project and flume work is
about to start, there being some
100000 feet on the ground and half a
million ordered and now being cut at
the mills. This project involves the
expenditure of from 100000 to
100000.
Officers of the company other than
the president are w. S. Douglas, vice
president and general manager, form
erly in charge of the construction and
distribution end of the Sunnyside can
al; J. w. Graham, secretry-treasurer
and c. M. Zediker, field engineer.
THE water supply Is abundant and
is perhaps the finest in the state for
domestic use. The project was first
discovered by J. w. Graham and Justin
X. Hill two years ago.
"Mr. Chase is also in charge of the
Oroville district project which covers
from 1000 to 1900 acres of land, and
of the Brewster district project COW
ering some 10000 both of these pro-
jects involving the expenditure of very
large sums of money, the former run
ming between 100000 and 100000
and the latter between $1,000,0O0 and
$3.50, 1000"

They expressed themselves as pleased
and surprised at the growth of our
town during the last few months.
County Auditor, J. d. Hubbard, is
moving his family and household
goods from ConcOnully to his ranch
two miles north of town this week.
Mr. Hubbard has decided to make this
his future home and we hope he will
find the move both pleasant and prof
table.
The telephone from Chewhelliken
valley to TOnasket is now an assured
thing. Nineteen shares have already
been sold and it has been decided to
have switchboard put in Judge Sim
cocks Office This will be a great ben
eft to the ranchers as well as the
people in town. 1t will also be bene-
fetal to the school district as it will
put Supt. Grinnell in direct touch with
both the Anglin and Chewhilliken
schools.
Tonasket certainly did herself proud
at the Riverside fair. The. display
made by the Tonasket FIGURING Mill
was well worth the time and the bis
cults turned out by Miss Donald made
with the TOnasket -four were even
better than mother used to make"
The flour carried off both the silver
cup and blue ribbon. How's that for
start! Clay Fruit also took first
prize on his display of apples and
Margaret Mayberry a special prize on
battenburg work.
There will be a mass meeting of the
ladies in the school house at 2:30 next
Saturday afternoon for the purpose OF
organizing a Civic Improvement Club.
Such an organization has been talked
of for several months but as yet moth
ing definite has been done. 1t is un-
derstOod that a pleasant room can be
had for reading room in the new
post Office building. A case of books
has arrived from the State Travelling
Library and number of books and
magazines nave been promised as do
nations. Most progressive towns have
movements of this kind and the ladies
accomplish much in the way of local
improvements. So ladies turn out en-
masse next Saturday and lend hand
toward building up and lettering the
social life of our town.
