80 100 feet Of the fume broke away
and rolled down the steep slope,
softened into a slide by the heavy
rains. 1t was just after dinner Thurs-
day that the Yelm men began work
under exceptional difficulties.
The big flume, where 1t had
broken, was in splinters and It
meant rebuilding it upon timbers
weighing as much as q ton. But just
as the Yelm farmers have determined
to develop their dry, porous prairie
soil by irrigation, they determined to
complete that dume before the next
day and with the aid Of lanterns
through the night, they did 1t.
The weather and the purpose OF
the picnic seemed paradoxical. a.
rain fell with few intermissions
throughout the day. But Yelm prai-

Yelm Home Guard In Charge.

All Yelm and a big share Of Nc
Kenna was there; practically every
farmer in an area Of more than 5000
acres affected by the irrigation
scheme was present. together with a
good representation from Tacoma.
A distinctly military note was
struck at the meeting in it's supervi-
sion by the Yelm home guard, garbed
in olive drab service uniforms and
service hats which the members
have bought for themselves. Among
them we're numerous members of the
Red Cross who distinguished them
selves by wearing the Red Cross arm
bands. Ribbons bearing the Red
Cross were sold for admission to a

the auspices Of the home guard, in

Veins celebration Of the second
anniversary OF the opening Of it's big
irrigation ditch was q big success
last Friday, in spite of the rainy
weather and in spite of other dim
culties that farmers interested In the
project worked like rrojans to over
come. Several large delegations OF
visitors from Olympia, Tacoma and
other cities, besides large numbers Of
farmers for miles around, Joined in
the celebration and picnic.
And when they got there. they
heard the story of the Yelm farmers
efforts to have everything shipshape.
The Tacoma Tribune tells the story
this way:
F1ume Collapsed Thursday.
Collapsing on steep hillside, a
broken main flume nearly spoiled the
Yelm prairie peoples second annual
celebration of the opening of their
extensive irrigation development, but
with the energy that has character
ized a seven-year fight to overcome
a handicap imposed by nature, Yelm
men worked Is hours through day
and night to repair the break. At
1880 o'clock Friday morning they
went home confident that when the
anniversary picnic was gathered in
Rice's grove. water would be flowing
through a previously dry canal.
At 1880, as the crowd was as
|sembling, the ditch began to fill, and
in an hour a fine big flow was run
ming down the lateral past the picnic
ground, gaining speed and carrying
the message Of Yelm labor to the
hitherto more or less unproductive
prairie soil. The Yelm project ex-
tends II miles from it's base to it's
headgates. and 1t takes several hours
for the water to travel down the COM
paratively low grade.
When the ditch was completed
last year. water could not be run
through 1t in time for the first picnic.
and the men Of the vicinity worked
with more than ordinary vim that
the second picnic might not be
marred by dry ditch.
Worked Through Night.

Seventy-two fried chickens, 80

Is pounds of wieners and 80 Of the
finest, juiciest pies that ever came
out Of an oven fell under the crowds
ravenous assault. A big picnic cake
brought IS at auction for the benefit
Of the Red Cross. A great big line
of good things to eat was also held In
reserve by the Yelm housewives for
the Red Cross ball in the evening.
After the dinner the crowd took
seats in the grove for the picnic pro-
gram of addresses and songs. J. p.
Martin, president ofsthe Yolm Com
mercial club, and also president OF
the Yelm Irrigation company. was
chairman and welcomed the picnick-
ers with thanks for the sacrifices
they must make to attend.
e. F. Benson, state commissioner
Of agriculture, stood with rain pat
tering down on his barred head and
delivered an interesting discussion
Of farm problems and the history of
irrigation and urged greater cooper
alton among the farmers of the dis
trict.
Urges General Co-Operation.
Mr.. Benson urged the people to
cooperate among themselves in well
coming newcomers, to cooperate in
farm development with cooperative
ownership of seed drills, threshing
machines and big farm machinery;
in livestock raising and in marketing
efforts.
Walter j. Thompson spoke for the
rural development committee of the
Tacoma Commercial Club & Chamber
Of Commerce.
Lynn M. Rice, engineer in charge
and widely known through the state
as an irrigation expert, spoke from
his experiences in irrigating unpro-
ductive tracts, cited the great sue
cess of irrigation developments else
where in the world and promised for
Yelm prairie the benefits of soil
sweetened by the silt deposits of the
glacial Nisqually river and made
tighter by deposits which will better
conserve the moisture given to it.
