PESHASTIN APPLES GO
TO WASHINGTON D. {.
[. H. Hart Shipped A Car Of Extra
Fancy Peshastin Fruit to the Ma
tionaI Capitol this Week

L. H. Hart, one OF the staunch and
progressive fruit growers of that won
derful fruit section three miles down
the Wenatchee valley was here last
Saturday and said he would ship a car
Of extra fancy apples to Washington
City the first Of this week. He shipped
one car to that market some time ago
the returns on which were satisfactory.
Mr.. Hart accompanied the car, or
rather preceded it. He has brother
who is one Of the prominent architects
Of the capital city, and will combine
the pleasure of visiting him and mar
keting his apples.
He still has two or three cars Of ap-
pies in his storage cellar which he will
try and place before returning.

TRAINS ARE RUNNING
THRU THE MOUNTAINS
Freight Trains viii be Moved First
Passenger Trains Will Arrive To-
day

The blockade in the Cascade noun
tains was lifted Wednesday and bar
ring further trouble the trains will
commence running on time to-day.
Since the opening Of the track We'd
nesday noon three freight trains have
come in from the west and three have
been sent to the coast. On account
of so much freight being tied up at
different points along the line it was
decided to move it before passenger
traffic was resumed. Just how long
the line will be open depends upon
the condition of the weather. As long
as the freeze continues there is no
danger of slides, but as soon as the
weather gets warmer the snow will
again commence sliding. 1t is the
prediction of railroad men that there
will be much more trouble before the
winter is over.

The Public Library Has More Books

The women who are in charge of
the public library feel very much en-
couraged over the increasing interest
taken in their work and hope to add
many more books to the library during
the coming year. There are now two
hundred patrons of the library and
about seventy-ive books are given out
each week. Twenty more books were
added this week. Among those for
juveniles are eight volumes of Louisa
M. Alcott's works; Tanglewood Tales,
Hawthorne; Robinson ,Crusoe, Mrs.
Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch, Gulliver's
Travels and the Scout Master Of Troop
Five.
A few of the late books were: Cor
poral Cameron, Ralph Connor; Tempt
ing OF Tavernake, Oppenheim; The
Inner Flame, Burnham; Master of The
Cakes, Stanley; Captain Of His Soul,
Mitchell; and two volumes Of short
classics by famous American authors

LOCAL POSTOFFICE
DOES BIG BUSINESS
Receipts Increase ID per cent in One
Year-S1799.SS Worth Stamps
Sold Last Quarter 1912

If the receipts Of the postoffice are
any criterion to the advancement and
increase of business and general pros
perity of a community, Leavenworth
has made a substantial increase within
the last year. The receipts Of the
postofice for the last quarter in 1911,
October, November and December
were $1,557.74, as compared to ST.
7oe.80 for a like period in 1912, an
increase Of little over "A per cent.
Since the parcel post went into ef-
feet Postmaster Davis says he is han
ding six or seven times as many par
GELS as he did in the past. He esti-
mates that in the course of month he
and the employees handle close to
hundred thousand pieces Of mail mat
ter. Last year he made count and
says that at that time it figured up
$4,000 pieces in thirty days. From
the above it can easily be seen that
the post Office man has no easy Job.
The money order business is steadily
increasing and at the present time be-
tween eight and ten thousand dollars
worth of orders are sold every month.

QUINCY IRRIGATION PROJECT
BEFORE WASH. LEGISLATURE
Effort is Being Made to Have the reo-
pie of the State Vote on the lni-
CATION Scheme

Within the next two weeks a bill
will be submitted to the legislature
authorizing the submission to the vo-
tiers OF the state at the next general
election plan to provide money for
the Quincy irrigation project. Most
of the members OF the Legislature and
the government are said to look with
favor on the projected reclamation OF
this large body Of arid land and it is
believed that if the matter is put be-
fore the people of the state, they will
give it their hearty endorsement.
There is over 100000 acres Of land
in Grant, Adams, Chelan and Douglas
counries which will be watered under
the big irrigation project and it is the
plan Of the promoters to issue $40,-
600, 900 in bonds backed by the state
which will mature in 20 years. The
bonds are to be in denominations Of
$1,000 each and are not to bear inter
est to exceeds per cent. The bonds
shall be sold by the state treasurer at
public auction to the highest bidder
in such parcels and numbers as the
governor may designate. The interest
will be paid out Of a sinking fund pro-
vided for in the act.
The act il adopted by the voters Of
the state will take effect on the 3lst
day of December. 1914. 1t is antici-
pated that after the opening Of the
Panama canal, there will be big i'm
migration to the coast, and Washington
should have a large acreage ready for
settlement with the coming Of the new

moderate farm. Such shaking is also
very trying on wagons, and after few
years OF such treatment they show un-
Unstable signs of wear, and they do
not last more than half the time they
should. The farmer may attribute
the loss of his grain, and the wearing
of his wagons, to the roughness of the
road, but nevertheless, they are
chageable, in no small degree, to the
poor road.
A horse may also be sweeneyed, or
otherwise injured by the jolt Of a
heavy load over a rough place, and
the owner not know how or when it
was done.
For the above reasons it is a safe
statement that under ordinary condi-
tions any administration having the
oversight OF roadmaking would be JUS
tilted in creating a bonded indebted
ness for the purpose, leaving posterity
to pay, and the benefits arising would
repay the interest many times over in
the social, and moral uplift which it
would provide.

NEWS INFORMtR NOT LIKED
BY WENATCHEE WORLD
Man who Gave Reporter News of so
Men Killed in Slide is Ordered to
Leave City

Fred Hill left Wenatchee last Thurs
day afternoon on train No. 4, says the
Wenatchee World. He went by in
yitation Of Officer Frank Stannard. Hill
is the fellow who brought down the
report from Leavenworth that the slide
killed so to 90 men including Fore
man o. F. Johnson Of this city. Last
evening he was at the depot when the
train pulled in. Johnson saw him and
proceeded to tell him what he thought
of liars in general and Of his kind in
particular. He expressed desire to
give his former carpenter thrashing,
but Hill defended himself by pleading
illness.
While the conversation was getting
warm, Agent Piper appeared. John
son appealed to the railway official
and said that he could prove that Hill
is an agitator, thief and an all around
crook. Whereupon Piper turned to
the policeman and reported Johnson's
accusation. Stannard then gave Hill
the above advice and the fellow de-
cided to act upon it. He did not even
wait to go after his baggage, if he had
any.
1t pays to tell the truth and above
all things never give reporter a fake
story. See what happened to this
fellow.

Wenatchee Switch Engine Runs Away

A jap watchman at the Great North
ern roundhouse in Wenatchee per-
mitted the switch engine at that place
to get away from him last Saturday
night and after running a short dis
tance plowed its way into bank Of
ashes at the end of the side track.
Another engine was used to pull the
locomotive back on the track and it
was brought to this city for repairs. 1t
is the duty of the Jap watchman to
move the engine to different points in
the yard during the night, but when
questioned he was unable to say how
he lost control.

the contractors should stand this ex-
pense.
For the right Of way thru the Peters

Mr.. Peters was on hand saying that he
would accept the $3.50 offer, and the
clerk and engineer were instructed to
fix up the papers. F. E. Van Brock
lin made application for the position as
water commissioner, which application
was placed on file.

Judge, for $500; John Koerner, treas
urer, $500 and J. H. Bohnsack, mar
shall, $500, were accepted and placed

A vicious dog, the property Of L. c.
Brender, has tenorized the women and
children in the eastern part Of town for
several days. The past week he has
bitten no less than eight persons, men,
women and children, in several instan-
ces drawing blood. Marshall Bohnsack
has been looking for the vicious canine
since the first of the week and yester-
day ran onto him, and promptly, with
out ceremony, dispatched him. The

haved like a good dog should.

S. P. BEfCHER WILL
RECEIVE DAMAGES
Jury Last Saturday Awarded S. P.
Beecher $3.50 Damages for Right
of-way Thru His Peshastin Land

S. P. Beecher and the Peshastin
Orchards Ditch Co., were awarded
$3.50 damages by the jury in the Su-
perior court last Saturday in the con-
demnation suit by the Icicle Canal
Co., for right Of way for their ditch
thru his land at Peshastin.
Mr.. Becheer placed his damage at
IS, 900 maintaining that a canal op-
Grated thru his place would absolutely
ruin his orchard tract and would also
make it impossible for him to build a
ditch which he had contemplated.
Last summer he refused a tender Of
81, 500 for damages.
The ditch for which the rights were
secured take 33 feet in width and
about a mile in length, 4.88 acres in
all. The ditch zig zags thru the
tract and by the decree entered gives
the owner of the land right to widen
the ditch if necessary in order to ac-
commodate water for any other ditch
planned.
Reeves Crollard & Reeves repre-
sented the Icicle Canal Co. and L. j..
Nelson the defendant. The Icicle
Canal Co.'S. ditch will be used to wa
ter large tract of land in the vicinity
Of Monitor.

Why it Pays the Farmer to Build
Good Roads

A good road should be regarded
as an asset to every person living
within the community through which
it passes, and especially to farmers
whose property is saved by such road.
A farm may be ever SO efficient from
the standpoint Of buildings, cultivators,
ETC., but if difficult of access to and
from the outside world, its value is
very greatly impaired.
Among reasons may be mentioned,
first, the reduction in the cost OF haul
ing products and necessities to and
from the farm. The cost of transpor-
tation with the farmer, as with the
railway companies, depends upon the
scale upon which it is conducted.
Thus it costs it costs but little more for
one man and two horses to draw two
or three tons than for the same equip
ment to draw one ton, providing the
state of the road is such as to permit,
and this in the aggregate provides an
economy scarcely to be estimated to
the country at large, especially where
distances from town are frequently
great. The cost of delivering car
load of wheat from the farmers granary
to the railway station often exceeds
the freight charges to the terminal
elevator, although the latter distance
may be incomparably greater, and this
is determined by the state of the road
over which it must pass.
Then, too, the marketable value of
property is much increased If reached
by good road. First impressions OF
a prospective purchaser are usually the
most lasting, and these are not likely
to be favorable if the farm must be
reached over ruts, stones and slough
holes, and he will probably go else
where.
These may be called apparent rea-
sons for the building of good roads,
but there are others, which, though
less apparent, are none the less real.
For example. farmer fills his wagon
box with wheat and starts for town.
He soon passes over stone or through
a hole, and the jar shakes of guam
tity of wheat. This is repeated sew
eral times. Other farmers do the
same, until the wheat scattered along
the trails would form the output OF a
