their water claims in favor Of down.
stream district, which the State Ir-
rigation Commission contends have
prior rights.
The commission and State Engineer
A. G. Tilley, backed by State courts,
have held that farmers farther east
ward along the North Plates course
have prior rights to the water.
Half a century ago these commu-
mites first turned the waters into
their fields and thus became senior
appropriations.
The Mitchell district dug canal
tapping the river on the Wyoming
side of the border and Wyoming
courts have upheld Mitchell rights.
When the long-standing controversy

EXPERT SEES
BETTER TIMES
FOR STOCK MEN
Chicago Executive Forecasts
Price Increase; State
To Reap Benefits
Drought Is Factor
Reduced Output In Middle West;
Prices Already Adj
vancing

Livestock growers of Washington
are in the best position of any of
the western or northwestern states
to reap advantages of advancing
meat prices in consequence of ex-
cellent range conditions and ample
feed to see them through the win
ter, John T. Caine, public relations
representative of large Chicago
stockyards company said Saturday
at Spokane.
His statement Isl taken with par
ticular interest by livestock raisers
of this district because Okanogan
county ranks as one of the chief
beef producing counties of the state.
With the livestock population Of
the middle west and the Montana
Dakota, Colorado and wyoming
ranges cut down the most drastic
ally in the history of the business
due to the drought and the AAA
program, washington state growers
face singularly bright conditions, he
declared.
Prices are on the move upward
and it is expected they will con-
tinue to advance, as there is no
chance for augmentation of herds
this year." he commented. "It will
be three or four years before the
livestock population again is ex-
pected. to approach numbers to
exert any continued pressure on the
market. In the meantime the stock
grower is expected to come into his
own"

NESPELEM ISOLATED FOR DAYS
WHEN SNOW BLOCKS HIGHWAYS
Community Caught In Wintry
Grip; Temperature Drops
To l8 Below Zero
Drifts Are Problem
Clog Omak Lake Road To Omak;
Traffic On Other Routes
Held Up

Bitter cold winds, sweeping DOW
erfully out Of the north, clogged
roads and highways from Nespelem
with SNOW early last week and eff
fectively isolated this community
from the outside.
Winter held a tight grip until
Monday when the wind veered from
the north and brought tempera-
ture rise of nearly 20 degrees.
The cold record of the last two
years was established Sunday morn
ing when the mercury plunged to 81
degrees below zero. Monday 1t rose
to ID above, the warmest reading
for week.
Shifting SHOWS blocked all roads
and Indian service caterpillars and
bulldozers spent four days attempt
ing to open the travel routes. Mon
day all school buses with the ex-
ception of the Owhi bus were able
to make their routes, but the drivers
reported serious difficulties In get
ting through.
Heavy Snowfall
Since Sunday snow has been fai-
ling almost continuously and brisk
winds are forming new drifts.
County snowplows are concentrat-
ing their efforts on the Nespelem-
Omak road in an effort to keep the
Omak Lake route open to travei.
This is at present the only outlet
for this community.
The stage from Omak came
through Monday for the first time
since the middle of last week. Five
hours were required for the trip
and shifting SHOWS made the drive
difficult one.
Train service from Spokane to the
Coulee dam was held up last week
and no mail had been received for
several days up to yesterday, when
it was thought arrangements would
be made to send it over a tramway
at the dam site.
Sunday morning the bridge across
the Columbia river at the dam was
closed to traffic when an ice Jam
formed against the structure. The
bridge swayed several feet and
MWAK officials stated that it was
certain to go out.
It has been reported here that the
state ferry at Keller is now oper-
ating. The Cache Creek road from
Nespelem to the San Poll highway
has been opened by Indian service
workers.

VERA To Promote
Garden Production
State Director Tells Plans For
Sponsoring Home Gardens For
Every Family On Relief

YAKIMA-Home gardens, to
assist every family receiving relief
to have the best garden possible as
an aid to better living, are the basis
of plan announced today by
Charles F. Ernst, director OF the
VERA. According to w. w. Dillon,
administrator of District 5, a five
point program for the home gardens
is being developed. :.
every family receiving relle1
will be helped to make a garden
either in it's back yard or on land
nearby" said the district admins
traitor.
"In some cases it may be advisable
for families to share gardens with
neighbors or to have community
gardens, the produce raised to be
distributed among the men who do
the work.
Will Not Reduce Relief
"I1e gardens will positively not
mean a reduction in the amount of
relief given. Families who are able
to raise large proportion of their
food needs in their home gardens
will be given more Of other COM
modities such as clothing, furniture,
housegold goods, ETC., to match the
savings in food costs"
The Rural Rehabilitation Advisory
committee Of the VERA has heart
lily endorsed this program, according
to the district administrator. The
viewpoint program follows:
1. Finding land for individual,
shared or community gardens.
2. Instruction in methods to OBJ
tain greatest value from gardens.
8. Supplying seed, of which early
purchase will be made.
4. Preserving or conserving surplus
garden products.
5. Expert consultation service
from preparation OF the ground
through the care of crops, harvest
ing and preservation.
The garden program will be under
the direction of trained persons to
assist i1k solving local problems and
obtain fx1e greatest benefits and re.
suits. IT was said,

MWAK BRIDGE AT COULEE DAM
THREATENED BY ICE FLOES
Structure Collapsing Under
Weight Of Ice; Traffic For
hidden Because Of Danger
Tramway Is Built
Men Carried To Work In Aerial
Basket Operating Over Column
Columbia; Carries Mail

MASON. CITY-A grinding drift
of ragged ice floes Sunday rocked
the temporary bridge connecting
this town with the scene of the
Coulee dam operations, and cffici-
ais expected the structure to go out
in splinters shortly.
Ice started to form in the night
and by noon extended for quarter
of a mile above the bridge BY night
the broken floes ran up for half 4
mile.
Employees Warned
All dam employees and residents
were warned early in the morning
that they crossed at their owe
risk. After p. m. no automoplles
dared make the passage. At that
time the fli1lsy SPAN sWayed as
much as two feet.
Officials say nothing can save the
bridge. Temporarily it might stand
if the ice formed below, but when
the ice breaks up in a few days
the bridge will go with it.
Employees in Mason City faced
at least two days of staying away
from work. Pilot cables were car
ried across the crumbling bridge in
preparation for installation OF IA
inch cables for suspension bridge
that is expected to handle the prob
lem of getting the men to work.
No Food Shortage
At the moment there is no short
age Of food in Mason City, and it is
thought that the ferries soon can
be used as they are not frozen IN
solidly.
Mail was carried over the tram
way Tuesday, the first mail to reach
Nespelem for four days.
The wooden truss bridge one mile
below the threatened span will be
of no value for a month yet
The monetary loss involved in the
destruction of the +hridge is regard
ed as negligible. It has been in
operation for two months and al
ready has paid for itself in freight
savings.
Yesterday a tramway car was rig
ged up by the MW!AK and was pre-
pairing to haul workers from Mason
City across the river to the scene
of operations. The basket carries
IL men at a load.
It is expected that the car also
will be used to carry mail until the
ferries can resume operations.

DRIFTING SNOW
BLOCKS ROADS
OVER COUNTY
All Except State Highways Clog
ged For Time By Drifts;
Snow Flows Busy
Open Lake Route
Road Was Closed Until Crews
B Went To Work Early
& This Week

MOCOT CTaIIlc on practlcally al
county roads in Okanogan county
was tied up almost completely over
the weekend and yesterday when
one of the worst blizzardS in years
swept this region.
Sub-zero weather and driving
winds Thursday and Friday COM
bined to make the road situation
the most serious in recent years,
with the exception of the February
tie-up in 1882.
All roads excepting state high
ways, which We're kept cleared by a
battery of snowplows and rotaries
were -clogged yesterday, ac-
cording to M. P. Mccoy, county en-
gineer, although the county's eight
show plows were making Roadway
in opening the most important
routes.
Open Omak Lake Road
The Omak-O mak Lake Nespelem
read, closed by deep, shifting drifts
three days last week. was opened
yesterday by county crews, and the
Nespelem passenger and freight
stage made it's first trip to the dam
site since Thursday morning. It re-
,quired about five hours for a trip
normally made in less than three.
The road from Okanogan to the
forks of the Omak lake road two
and one-half miles east Of Omak
was blocked by snow, and all travel
was routed through Omak. Yes
terdays heavy south wind was pill
ing the snow in new drifts and was
threatening to close the Omak lake
road in spite of the work done by
the county snow ploWs.
Drivers also have been able to
come to Omak from Disautel, one
truck having made regular trips
with wood taken two miles beyond
Disautel. The driver reported that
road conditions are better in the
timber than In the open, since the
trees keep the snow from drifting.
Heavy Snow In Methow
Serious difficulties in keeping the
state highway up the Methow val
ley open are also being encountered.
Extremely heavy SHOWS during Sat-
urday night and Sunday were re-
ported from Twisp, where 81 inches
of new snow fell, and at Winthrop,
where record snowfall of A. in
ches was reported.
County crews in the MethoW val
ley have been working day and
night to keep the roads open to
traffic, Mr.. Mccoy said.
A state highway rotary pillow is
keeping state road No. 4 between
Tonasket and Republic open. PloWs
also have been making regular trips
the length of state highway No. 10
in the Okanogan valley.
1 Ice ,floes rushing down the Col
'umbia river were yesterday piling
up against the MWAK company's
wooden bridge across the Columbia
at the Grand Coulee dam site. Com
pany officials said the bridge was
swerving and was certain to go out.
They closed the structure to all
traffic, motor and pedestrian. An
earlier report received here yeSter-
day was that the bridge had gone
out Sunday.
The ice also made it impossible
for the ferries at the dam to oper-
ate, making it impossible to get
food and supplies to Mason Guy,
where hundreds of the company's
employees reside. There was no
shortage of food, however, and
fresh supplies were rushed in via
the Omak- Nespelem road.
