JONES ASKS FOR SURVEY
OF PEND OREILLE PROJECT
Bill Provides for Investigation oil
Central Washington Scheme
by Reclamation Service

Senator Wesley L. Jones has in
PRODUCED in the senate bill provid-
ing for the investigation and survey
of a large area in central Washington
with a view. to its reclamation as sug-
gested by Governor Lister. The bill,
which is now in the hands of the COM
mittee on irrigation and the rcclama-
ton of arid lands, provides for an APP
preparation of $4,000 to carry on the
survey.
The bill sets forth that in central
Washington there are millions of acres
of arid lands which could be made very
productive if the waters of the Column
bia and Pend 0reille rivers could be
gotten upon them. The project, the
bill says, is of too great magnitude
to be undertaken by private parties,
or the state and for that
reason government aid is requested.

.
that experienced lack of precipita-
ton were the southeastern part of
Whitman and the greater part of Gar
field counties. Even in these less IA
vored area, altho the wheat has not
attained good surface growth, there
has been sufficient rainfall to germin-
ate the seed satisfactorily. Turnout
Benton and Klickitat counties condi-
tons are favorable, especially in Kick
itat county, where the crop has never
been in better condition. The wheat in
the counties west of the Cascades, al
tho sown later than during the average
year, is in its usual favorable con-
dition. ..

$50 this is your famous Beacon
street 2" said Major x as he strolled
with his friend along past the State
House. Frankly, I'm surprised. I had
always heard that it was very ex-
elusive street, you know"
"Well, so it u.s." said the other man.
"Eh! Old chap, how can you say
SO? Why, it positively verges on the
Common"

HIGH COST OF FISH

The Washington State Fish Commission is investi-
eating the fishing business with view to discovering
the for the high cost of fish, It says the evidence
tends to show the fishermen receiving the lions
share of the profits At Ketchkan Alaska, fishermen
paid IA cents for Alaska chinooks and ransporta-
ton added brought the price at Seattle to II cents The
commission says this cannot be remeded except by the
cooperation Of the Canadian government 1t gives
other instance showing the fishermen are the cinch-
ing the public 1t is that Of boat gone eight days from
Prince Rupert which brought in 1900 pounds of habut
for which $2139 paid The expenses Of the of
four 5000 including extra gear and the share
Of the vessel 5 The received for their eight
days work $348.60 at the rate of $4357 day. The
they received this price because dealers want
ing the fish b> competitive offers forced the price up
after all the dealers much to blame the fisher
men, at least In fact the fishermen not to blame at
all for taking the price offered them but the dealers in
their anxiety to fish forced the price to eXorbtant
figures without regard to the real robbery they per-
petrating their customers 1t becomes evident
daily that the situation will not be better until the food
administration takes charge of the fishing business and
fixes maximum price.
