VIZ ASHINGTON is political entity, but the people
w of the state have realized they all members
of one state.
That part of the state lying west of the Cascade
Mountains has had marvellous growth during the last
fifteen years 1t has wonderful harbors great industries
and is at present very prosperous. Many inhabitants
of it's cities and do realize that of the
Cascades lies great part of the state with
natural resources, the development of which is
tia to the west side to maintain it's trade industry and
commerce. &-@
Today is the era of the automobile, and no state
realize itself until it has roads that join the differ
parts of the state The west side has done wonders
in building main line roads and branch roads, On the
side there several ceners from which excellent
good road from the Puget Sound to the Yakima Val
ley to Wala Wala to Spokane and from there connect
ing with all central and eastern America
Only few people on the west coast realize the i'm
portance of eastern Washington hnterland for the
west coast and only few people the east side realize
the Importance of the west coast market for the
east side products.
To develop the state we need people. The immlgra-
ton law has shut off the stream from Europe so we
have to depend on people from other states Every

United States, but until have good roads they will

TWILL TRY OUT new
TYPE OF WATER WHEEL

Since Biblical tihes the use oi
water wheels for lifting water or
streams or to furnish the power TO,
doing SO, has been an interesting
subject. For various reasons the
scheme has never been permanent
success. Any number of water wheels
Of different types have been installed
along the Columbia river during the
past fifty years and nearly all OF
them have been junked. This is said
to be due in large measure to the
unusual rise and fall Of the Columbia,
which. has seasonal range of thirty
feet or more.
A. d. Olson a recent arrival from
Idaho believes he has a design for a
water wheel that he thinks will func-
ton economically, and is going to
some little expense TO build it and
have it installed on the north side OF
the Columbia near Wahluke.
The wheel he is building will be
"a feet wide and 18.feet in diameter.
1t will rest on two elongated scows,
four feet wide by 81 feet long. He
expects this wheel to develop power
to operate a pump with an 8 inch
cylinder and IL inch stroke and be-
lieves it may develop sufficient power
to operate two such humps. The
paddles on the wheel will be "a feet
lone and feet wide.
Mr.. Olson owns t60 acres of land
lust south of the Henry Glanzman
homestead near Wahluke and the wa
ter furnished bv the wheel will he
