TO SPEND $35,000 THIS YEAR
Ten Thouasad Acres of Highly Pro
ductive Lead Will Thus Bo Wat
ered and Made the Heme of
a Populous Community,
The Arnold Irrigation Company
has arrangements practically com
plcted for financing its project, and
the coming summer wilt sec much
work done on its canals and flumes.
The expenditure involved in the
work that will be done during 1910
will aggregate approximately $35,
000. It is expected to have the
svstem very nearly completed by
the time snow puts a stop to the
work next fall.
The largest undertaking of the
plans as now outlined will be the
building of a new flume. While
specifications for the flume have not
been adopted in detail, it probably
will be 12 feet wide and three feet
deep. The flume will be a mile
and a quarter long. The body of
it will be of two inch lumber, and
the supporting timbers and founda
tion will be constructed in most
substantial manner. Sig Clark,
who recently installed a sawmill on
the Fred Ilunnell place, has the
contract to furnish the lumber and
is now sawing it. M. J. Kelly
has contracted to haul the lumber
from the mill to the flume site.
The intake will be enlarged and
permanent gates installed. Ap
proximately three miles ofold canal
will be widened. It is planned to
build from six to eight miles of
new canal on the east lateral, which
runs eastward into the Arnold sec
'tion; and also some three or four
miles of new work on the north
lateral, which will water land ly
ing directly cast and southeast of
town. The company has hereto
fore been handicapped for funds,
but the necessary finances have
been provided for, and hereafter the
work will go forward with vigor.
The Arnold system will water
approximately 10,000 acres lying
east and southeast of town. It is a
mutual company, the stock of
which is owned by farmers and
Dend basin ess men. A large por
tion of the laud lying under this
system was originally taken up as
homesteads and desert land entries,
and the holdings ranged from 160
to 500 a,cres to each man. Lately
these larger tracts have been divided
somewhat and are being sold to
new comers, who plan to develop
their holdings extensively as soon
as the system is finished and water
delivered to their lands.

Reliable man, with team and

"The people of llcnd are not trying to

people coming in from the outslile that
nave made the boom. Seattle parties
have come lu anil gathered up about
half of the property already. Setcrat
deals have been nude in which the old
owners who have held the property for
four or Gve yesra have sold nut. The
purchasers hnve turned around and sold
the property within a few days and made
more than the man who held the proper-
the five years. When we trace up the
records of thr men who have come to
llcnd and made the heaviest buys we find
almost Invariably that they are people
who have been very close friends to the
Great Northern, ana tncouiv way 1 can
