20 THE BEB: OMAHA, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1913. MORE LAND FOR SETTLERS Ij. L. Work, Formerly of Omaha, Helps Reclaim Waste Places. jQOVERNMENT AIDS IN WORK Irrigation nnd nallrnaria Chnnne the Slap of it nisatttjc Section of Stntr or WaahlnKton for lInmeepU"rs, Just because two threads of steel have Wen laid a few short mllm 'n a whole county, r county of 6,000 square mllea of ftl-wi, which Is more than the entire state of Connecticut, has come Into Its own nnd has been given a Mart on Its fight for posterity. That Is what a railroad line has done for Okanogan county In "Washington. A few years ngo no railroads ran Into t'kaitogan county and there were very fiw people there and business was slack, except for sudden momentary booms In rnlnlnjj communities. Now the railroad Jias been Introduced, largo sums of money Jiavo been spent for irrigation, and Okanogan county now produces fruit that la rivaling that raised in the world famous orchards of Wenatchee. Okanogan county is rising fast and It will not be long before it will bo ablo to lift Its Share' of the state's load on Its own shoulder Instead of shifting It off on n JTiore prosperous county. K 1 Work, who resided In Omaha for fccvcral years some time ago nnd was connected with the First National bank, l now living In Orovllle. and so grout is his confidence In the future of the little village- that he says he will stay In Washington the remainder of hli life. Work Is president of several banks In Okanogan county nnd has been Instru mental in pushing irrigation through the Founty. air. Work is a nephew of Dex cr 1 Thomas, with- whom ho is now Visiting. (Jets Good fit art. "It's a great county,- said Mr. Work, "and it is going to bo a far greater pounly na time passes. All we have tietded up there was transportation and irrigation. We have a start on both and fnore of each is coming. In a short time ft Kill be possible to travel out of Oro kjlle east, west, north or routtt quickly aha conveniently. When I went into the county in 1S32 It was a four-day stage Cburaey into the county from Elleniberg. "Of course, Orovllle isn't a metropolis ftU, nor is it the county seat. There are people In the town and it Is doing a lot ot substantial building. It wilt bo a city some day -whon all our prospects tlossom, and we expect to bo one of tho Iggest cities In caatorn Washington, ex. eeptlng. of course, Hpokano and, perhaps, bforth Yakima. "Orovlllo Is way up In the north part ot the state, five miles from British Colum bia. It is in the midst of an ideal coun try; Tho climate is 'wonderful. The Japan ese current drives the soft warm winds ov.cr' tho shore line east Into Canada. THe Okanogan valley runs welt Info Canada, and deflects the warm winds south Into our country so that wo enjoy moderate weather when our neighbors SW rnllea east arn frcoilng. "W have direct communication with Vancouver and Seattle by roll now und we also have direct routes to Wenatcheo and Spokane. After a bit we will have another line or two running so that wo will be able to get excellent transporta tion Kervlce anywhere. Msay Fine Orchard. "Fruit raising Is our predominating o cupation, although considerable alfalfa Is grown. Wo irrigate by means of the Methow and filrrillkameen rivers, both ot Which are turbulent streams no that Ir rigation levels are easily arranged, The Okanogan reclamation project was the first of the Irrigation to be Introduced by the government In the state. 1'rom a high position in the Batman river, the water is transferred into a concrete canal, which winds around the b ot the mountains and throws the water Into ditches which unread over th lowlands. At Brewster, a district project 'will secure water from tho Methow river and throw If over several thousand acres Jut low valley land. , "At Orovllle a district project is In the course ot construction which will Irrigate 11,999' acres ot land on every side ot the ;town. The water! will be secured from the high waters of the Blmtlkameen and car rled In a canal to Orovllle for dlstrlbu. -tlon. ; "The demand for land is great and was Stimulated by the Omaha land show. ' "There la very little land In the country r3hal, has not been .filed upon for Tltomeetead, but there is still land that Is lelog held by the state or can be claimed on relinquishments. The Colylllo Indian - reservation will noon be thrown open to the public so that approximately 1,090,000 'acren ot choice land will add to the re ' sources ot the sU'e. The Indians have been given-allotments in severalty and it is thought that the reservation will be " s JVMa Aim ifOYatrnment "aIro Intrnda Tilnnnlni? n rnv. 7i itiiivui, tu vi uaiLO uiu x urt uailiiukiui that purpose. The slto is that ot the old fort wliera John Jacob Alitor established lils second, fur trading post in 1810. Water Itaa Bis Kali. 'The country is an Ideal one for Irri gation. The Methow and Bimllkameen are rivers which fall very precipitously. The Methow drops 1.000 feet In fifty miles at one stretch, which shows how easy It Is to secure the water and grade tho ditches, "Okanogan county Is a coming county and the fruit In that County right around Orovjlle Is already taking' prises. I also Jiopo to see some mining aa van cement. We have u. number of nines around Orovllle, but they are alC low grade ore and the high cosH of transportation renders them poor payers. But the railroad has changVd the situa tion and at present several mines are in full working order and as soon as more roads enter, the county and the transpor tation cost decreases a bit more, I believe tliat they will all work constantly. The country has possibilities and I expect to .live to see It become a populous as well , prosperous community." OftKIN BROS.

Two Steam Shovels Removing Dirt for Fontenelle Hotel Perhaps half of the excavation for the new million-dollar hotel Is already dona Tho contractors, J. C.

Cutler, general live stock agent of the Northwestern, with headquarters In Chicago, spout the day In the city. Mr. Cutler saya the present year has been about the best tho Northwestern has ever had, so far as the handling of live stock has boon concerned. The Nebraska lines, he adds, liavo held up well and will come closo to making a record, the movement being much heavier than years ago when the western part of Nebraska and eastern Wyoming was open range. Instead of business falling o. ns the range country Is more completely cut Into small tracts, Mr. Cutler Is ot tlto opinion that It will increase. As prices on cattle continue to advance, ho looks to seo tho small land holders graze their holdings to the maximum, something that was novcr done when tho cattlo barons years ago controlled tho millions ot acres of range. r nnl Hffli Tho next tlmo you .feel "out of sort," try a little, Sub 117 Brook The Pure Food Whiskey Almost Instantly you will note a delightful change You will work harder and Earn More you wU feel better and Esjoy e More.

FAVORS CROP PAYMENT PLAN Head ot the Ilnrllnartnn Land De partment Points Ont "Way by Which Producing; Area May tic Increased. "The crop payment plan of .selling land Is becoming more and more In M as time rocs on, and I am convinced that most land sates will soon bo made under this plan and there Is good reason for It," says D. Clem Ueaver, head of the Bur lington land department. "Lands have advanced so much In price that there Is not tho Inducement to buy for speculation that formerly existed and not many people are buying land except farmers who expect to cultivate It. When land was cheeper a man was more safe In buying and It did not take so much money then to control a given acreage "Another strong reason for this crop payment plan Is the fact that .farmers on new lands must take considerable risk on loss ot crops, etc., until tho land Is In a high state of. cultivation and In past years many farmers who paid down part on their lands, having met with crop failures have been forced to abandon their farms and lose tho money paid and also tho additional Improvements put on tho property. No Good Reason for fir final. "There Is no topod reason why persons now selling land should not bo witling to sell on the crop payment plan and share in the risk taken by the actual farmer. Those who own lands now aTe offering them at a much higher figure than they paid for them and a sale on the crop payment plan will mean a profit to start with and they ought to bo suds-, fled with sharing some of the risk, espe cially as all tho riik they take only means a delay in the payments In case ot a crop failure. "Die most common practice In the crop payment plan of sales Is for the owner ot the land to agree to sell the tract at J a stipulated prlco and agree to accept nail 01 tno crops grown, earn your hi the then market prlco as yearly pay rricnts, giving tho purchaser the option of paying oft tho debt at any time In cash. In such cares the purchaser usually agrees to put on certain Improvements and to farm a stipulated acreage each year. This Plan does not require, any cash payment at tho tlmo of purchase and I Usually an advantage to both seller and buyer .is the money paid down Is used for making the land bought moro habit able ap'l more surely asaures the success Of tho' purchaser. "I am Just now seriously considering whether or not in the future we should help any one make sates who Is not will ing to sell lands on tho crop payment plan. It means more cultivation and more real farmer, nnd that Is what we all want Our state Is not now producing any thing like it should. Millions of acres arn held by speculators that ought to bo bought by renters and many, many thou sands of renters would buy lands on the crop payment plan that are not willing to risk losing what they now have by cramping themselves to make a cash down paymont" Shoshone Lands Are Now on Private Sale At the recent land auction held by the United Htatei land department at Sho shone, Wyo.. 5,768 acres wero disposed of at $31,643. In view ot the lack of en thusiasm and of bidders at the auction, the government has decided to sell the remaining lands at private sale at their appraised value. From now the balance of the reserva tion which has been purchased from the Indians will be disposed of that way. Key to the Situation-Bee Advertising. BROS. CO. T ARIPFl . - . ... per dav-S3, M. S3.
