success organizing his
Orchards Homes company. He left
Iagain this week for the east to interest
|capital and secure colonists. He is go
ling to make a success of the venture,
and in very few years the country
,around Cordell the first station on the
lOroville- -Wenatchee branch south of
town, will be thickly populated with an
industrious and thrifty class of colon
lists producing an enormous quantity
lof hay, vegetables and fruit.
The contractors who have the job
of grading State Road No. 10 from
Britain Flat to the Bottomley ranch
ihave commenced tearing up dirt at
the Ellis-Forde Orchard tracts, and
autoing is pretty rough where work
is progressing However, 1t is encour-
aging to know that the improvements
are under way and that eventually a
smooth highway will be open to travel.
That section of the valley road has
been considerably cut up this summer
and at it's best could never be classed
| as first class highway.
Oroville was pretty near to royalty
last week, for during his visit to Pen
ticton the Prince of Wales was driven
down as far as Fairview to look over
the irrigation project that is being car
ried out for the benefit of returned
Canadian soldiers.
