Gold Mines at BIUwUtt and Red Noun
tain

The oldest gold mine in the State
Of Washington is located at Blewett,
sixteen miles from here. Statistics
show that this camp in the earlier days
produced over a million dollars. How
ever there has been little doing in the
past few years, due to litigation, which
has involved thousands Of dollars. The
prospect looks good at the present
time for a settlement Of the difficulties
and it is believed that operations will
soon commence at the historic camp.
A number of placer claims are worked
in that district during the summer
months, some of which are operated
with hydraulic. The Red Mountain
district as yet is not producer but is
being developed each year with bet
ter prospects Of making paying pro-
position out Of the properties.

Like Phoenix He Rose from the Fire

F. H. Hutchings without doubt has
the distinction of conducting one OF
the best Bullets in the county if not in
eastern Washington. Immediately
after the fire last spring, when the
former Lobby was burned, as well

Immediately leased quarters in the
present building. which is the property
of John Bjork of this city. In the
spacious quarters one encounters upon
entrance to the building, the thought
OF being in a real up to the minute
buffet.
Mr.. Hutchings has been a residen

business. Before coming to this city
he was engaged in business in Wenat-
chez.
1t will be a source Of satisfaction to
former patrons OF the Lobby to learn
that the present buffet is provided with
a large rest room, which is at their dis
posal when in the city. By courte-
Gus treatment Of his patrons and with
a place fitted as is the Lobby Family
Liquor Store there will no doubt be a
larger acquaintance made with Mr..
Hutchings in the future than in the
past. Only the best brands OF liquors,
wines and cigars are carried in stock,
where orders are promptly filled.

A Community of Three Zones, Indus

To make the joys of country life an

ton that ultimately it will become a
suburb of Milwaukee. Railroads which
run through the site will separate the
manufacturing and industrial center
on one side from the residence and
municipal districts on the other.
Over 1000 acres of land have been
pledged to the project, and owners are
working together in the development
and execution of the model city plan,
which provides first Of all that no
home shall have less than an acre of
thickly wooded ground and that at
least 80 per cent of the trees standing
when the land, primitive woodland,
Is sold shall be preserved.
The combined holdings represent
something over 1000 acres lying on

Possibilities of Generating Electric
Power

Careful and conservative estimates
Of the possibilities Of generating power
in this immediate vicinity for manu-
featuring and other purposes place it
at one hundred thousand horse power.
The Great Northern power plant, To-
Gated two miles from town, has ca
pacity OF ten thousand horse power
energy, which is used to operate trains
thru the Cascade tunnel. Above and
below this plant on the Wenatchee are
other sites Of equal capacity. On the
Icicle river the power possibilities are
almost beyond calculation, all waiting
for the coming Of some man or men
who will put it to profitable use.

IRRIGATION ENTERPRISES IN
UPPER WENATCHEE VALLEY
Many thousand Acres are Under Water
Not Half are in Cultivation

The Snow Creek Water Co., taking
water from Snow Creek, tributary OF
the Icicle river, has its intake three
miles south of Leavenworth. The ele-
walton OF this canal makes it possible
to water all the high lands south of
the Wenatchee river tributary to Lea
venworth and Peshastin. The canal
was completed as far as Peshastin the
past year and will supply water to up
wards OF three thousand acres. Its
further extension is contemplated to
lands below the last named town. S.
P. Beecher, a prosperous fruit grower
OF Peshastin promoted the enterprise.
The Wenathee Park Land & Irriga-
ton company, whose lands, some eight
thousand acres, lie in the Chewawa
river valley and in the Wenatchee riv-
er valley below where the Chewawa
empties into the Wenatchee, from ten
to fifteen miles north from Leaven-
worth. The Wenatchee Park Com
pany spent over hundred thousand
dollars in the past two years building
canal, and bridge across the Wenat-
chez river, and contemplates building
another bridge. The bridges will be
be used in conveying their pipe line
across the river. A Dunkard colony
has located on some of this land, al
ready some thirty-three families have
built fine ranch homes, cleared land
and put il in cultivation. The lands
in this section are specially suitable
for meadows but will produce fruit of
all kinds. The company's irrigation
system is pronounced one Of the best
in the county. The Wenatchee Park
Land Co. has room for two hundred
additional families. Its lands are sold
on long time and easy terms.
The Icicle Canal Company has an
irrigation system which has its source
in the Icicle river about four and
half miles south of town. This system
extends through the Upper valley on
both sides of the Wenatchee river, and
as far east as Monitor. The develop
ment of thousands OF acres OF fruit
land is made possible through the
construction of this canal.

MARKETING FRUIT CROP
A VERY LARGE PROBLEM
Two Cooperative Selling Agencies Han
die the Bulk of the Crop

Because OF its magnitude the fruit
industry is the greatest factor in max
ing the Wenatchee valley one of the
richest agricultural sections in the
United States. The combined efforts
Of the different fruit selling agencies in
marketing the large present and ever
increasing yield of fruit of all kinds,
have done much to bring about this
result.
A few years ago there was little
known of selling organizations, the
bulk Of the marketing falling on the
small cooperative associations through
out the valley. Often difficulty was
experienced in disposing of the fruit at
satisfactory prices.
During the past three years large
selling agencies have been organized,
and have proven highly satisfactory.
Probably the two largest selling
agencies in the northwest are the North
Pacific Fruit Distributors, with head
quarters at Spokane, and the North
western Fruit Exchange, of Portland.
With these two concerns are affiliated
many sub-central and local organiza-
tions. For instance the Wenatchee-
North Central Fruit Distributors. which
is sub central OF the North Pacific
Fruit Distributors, is affiliated with nine
sub-central associations and many local
distributors in the Wenatchee valley.
The Northwestern Fruit Exchange
has string of branches throughout the
northwest and through systematic
selling organization has handled a large
part of the output of this valley, To
one not familiar with the workings Of
such organizations it is amazing to find
hundreds of men making the distribu-
ton of fruit their sole occupation.
This has all been brought about within
the past few years. Taking into con-
sideration the vast amount Of acreage
in bearing fruit throughout the north
west, the problem Of marketing was
a vital problem with the growers. Each
community has its local representative,
connected with one or the other of the
above mentioned fruit exchanges.

miles west of West Alls. one OF the
future suburbs of Milwaukee. Both
the Chicago and Northwestern and the
new belt line connecting the North
western and the Milwaukee roads run
through the property, while the Wau-
kesha lnterurban cars make the resi-
dents of the district but half an hour
from the Milwaukee terminal station.
One of the fundamental features Of
the plan is to insure a community OF
garden homes. The residence district
will be bordered along the county line
road and the road to the nGTh with
the stores. offices and other places Of
business. No store will be allowed In
the heart of the residence district.
which is laid out In one acre lots.
In the Industrial district only those
factories will be allowed which will
meet certain requirements Of attrac-
tive design, as well as modern building
regulations governing sanitation and
other details for the well being Of the
employees.
Many of the natural beauty spots In
the residence section will be retained
for the benefit of the community. one
especially picturesque glen overlooking
a natural lake having been transform
ed into an open air theater. A certain
number of lots will be reserved as
Fairgrounds for children. Arrowheads
and other Indian relics which are be-
ing found will be housed in a munich
pal museum,

When a shipment OF fruit is to be made
the head Office is notified and the ship
ment is sent on its way to market.
The selling OF fruit is brought about in
different ways. The different distribu-
tors are always familiar with the con-
ditions OF the markets in every part of
the world, they have data showing the
yield and quality of the fruit in the
different sections. The shipment may
be sold before leaving the grower or it
may not. 1t makes little difference
because of the thoro marketing system
in use. Often the shipment is sent on
its way east and while enroute will be
bid on through telegraphic advice by
prospective buyers from the organiza-
ton selling the fruit. This may go on
for several days until the highest bid
der takes the shipment. The definite
routing Of the shipments is undeter-
mined until a sale is made in this man
ner. After the shipment is sold it is
routed to its destination.
1t is in this way that markets are
made the world over, and without doubt
the only way the enormous crops could
ever be disposed Of.
Last week branch Of the Wenat-
chee-North Central Fruit Distributors
was organized in Leavenworth with
membership Of seventeen growers who
realized the advantage of a selling or
ganization, to dispose of the fruit which
is to be shipped from here this year and
the increased yield in a few years
when the new orchards of the upper
Wenatchee Valley come into full bear
ing.
