QUINCY DISTRICT
WATER SUPPLY.
CONSTRUCTION OF Dam on the Wen

Miles.

A partial study of the Lake Wen

valley irrigation district was given
by Ivan E. Goodner, office cngineo,
for the Columbia basin survey COM
mission, at meeting at Quincy last
week. A summary of his address is
given:
Water Required.
In compliance with its authorize
ton by the state to determine all the
possible sources of water for irrigat
ing the lands of the Quincy valley ir-
rigation district, the Columbia basin
survey commission last year made a
detailed field survey of Lake Wenat-
chez, Pend Orielle river and. Column

Quincy district, which are amply able
to pay any reasonable price for irri-
eating water. An additional $4,000
acres of land were found irrigabe
along the line of the proposed canal
from Lake Wenatchee.
The county agent for Grant county
furnished large amount of data
concerning soil, crops and water re-
quirement, and information has also
been received from the appraisers for
the various banks and loan companies
that operate in the district In this
way it was determined that certain
areas were likely to prove best suited
for alfalfa, clover and forage crops.
while other areas are best suited for
grain and diversified farming. The
records of the present areas being IL
rigated in the district, together WITH
the crop and rainfall records year by
year, were tabulated and from this
information it was found that all au-
thorities agree very closely on a wat
er duty for each particular area. the
average being a depth of SO inches
delivered during the irrigation sea-
son.

A dam constructed on the Wenat-
chez river, near the mouth of Beaver
creek, having its foundation at APP

and its crest at POLO feet elevation.

totalling 1,475,000 acre feet of water.
1t is not known certainly that a
dam can be constructed at this point.
The funds available to the Columbia
basin survey commission were en-
tirely inadequate to permit of the
sinking of test pits or drilling sound
ing holes at the proposed damsite in
order to determine that suitable rock
exists to support a dam of the dimen-
sions required Surface indications
are that the rock appearing in the
walls of the river valley cross the
valley at a reasonable depth, in which
case the site will probably be salts

We find the most economical line
from Lake Wenatchee to Quincy Is
somewhat over rs miles in length.
This is made up of about as miles of

TO
HONOR PILGRIMS
Disputes Plymouth as Sailing
Port of u. S. Fathers.

LONDON, May 22.-Southampton wants
American history books rewritten.
Southampton viii start the process OF
proving that they should be rewritten on
July "a. when Southampton viii endeavor
to Guido Plymouth In celebration Of the
anniversary of the sailing Of the Pilgrim
Fathers.
For Southampton claims that It was
from Southampton and not from Plym-
outh that the hardy band Of fathers-of-
a nation set out for the new world.
Moreover, John Alden, whose immortal
ity among the Pilgrim Fathers was
aided by the. chronicle OF Longfellow,
was born and grew up in that city and
many others who set sail on the May
flower were from southampton or the
Southampton district.
On July "A new John Alden, clad as
was the first one. and a new Niles stand
ish and new Priscilla. and l01 others,
viii embark from Southampton IN
pageantry reproduction 0f the original
sailing Of the Mayfower.
The Mayhower was outatted for the
voyage westward In the southampton
basin.
There It lay for weeks while the voy-
ayers made the preparations for co
lOnial venture.
1t set sail from that beautiful basin.
which Is now the chief port for American
frst-class passenger traffic.
The mere fact that the Maydower met
bad weather and was forced 10 put In at
Plymouth and resail from there should
not rob Southampton OF it's honors, say
the present city fathers.

of each type winning the first prize at
maximum price of $4,000 for small
planes, $4,000 for large Planes and $4o,-
coo for seaplanes.
Although the planes must be Of Brit
