WPA Project
Sought For
Power Canal
State Officials Inspect
Project Thursday; Pro
spect Pleasing.

"A proposed project to deepen the
power canal at Priest Rapids and
to make other improvements to the
properties of the Priest Rapids ir-
rigation district was inspected to-
day by Rex Nicholson, deputy state
administrator, and c. w. Turner,
district engineer, of the WPA.
Following their inspection trip
the officials declared that the pro-
ject appeared to be feasible in
every way, and that if final ap-
prevail can be secured, work should
be started not later than the mid
die of December.
AS drawn up by the directors of
the district, the project includes
the deepening of the upper half
of the power canal, the raising OF
the wing dam at the head of the
canal, and repairs to the spillway
midway in the canal.
Approximately three feet would
be excavated from the bottom of
the canal and the wing dam raised
three feet in order to supply sufi-
Gent head to operate the plant
during the low water period. Re-
pairs to the spillway would in
crease the head of water during
the flood stage of the river, dur
ing which the power output at the
plant is lowered considerably u1l-
der the present conditions.
Some work on the distribution
system of the district is also in
Guided in the project.
If approved, a WPA camp will be
set up at the power plant, with a
crew of about thirty men, to be
drawn from the Yakima district to
be employed. 1t is estimated that
about three months will be re-
quired to complete the project.

GRAPES ARE IDEAL
CROP FOR DISTRICT

Grapes, which are an ideal crop
for this district, are one of the
most profitable crops that can be
grown, in the opinion of David
zerwekh, whose four-acr vineyard
in the In-B-Tween district has
brought good returns nearly every
year
Mr.. zefwekh agrees with other
growers who have experimental
with various varieties, that native
grapes, especially the concord, are
more profitable than the European
varieties, which must be covered in
the winter time.
The native grapes, he says, are
dependable bearers, and require
little attention. The European var
ieties, on the other hand, are I'M
reliable, in that if they are not
covered at just the right time, or
are uncovered at the wrong time,
