Map showing proposed irrigation of the Columbia Basin. The large shaded area al the right, covering Western Montana and Northern Idaho, is the drainage district whose excess water would be transported to the smaller shaded area in the center to transform it from a desert of volcanic ash and sagebrush into a fertile field of wheat and orchards 2,000,000 acres in extent. One scheme is to bring the water from New port thru Spokane to the arid area via canals and viaducts. The other is to tap the Columbia river in the upper end of Grant county and bring the water to the distributing point via the Grand Coulee, the old bed of the Columbia. casting that the water from the cup, when applied to these 2.000,- 000 acres, will double the state's wheat output. The area to be thus irrigated STUDENTS AGAIN PROTEST U FEES Forced to Pay Library Charge Twice in Year Protest against the fee system at the university this quarter has cen- tered around the imposition of the Ubrary tax of $5 for the winter quar. ter. The majority of students were led to believe that the library fee of $5 paid tn the fall quarter was to run thru the entire year. Revenues trom the fees at the unt versity will be slightly less this quarter than In the fall. Some assess. ments were made for the entire year, and relieve the burden of payment to a slight extent While no formal protest will prob ably be made this quarter, student sentiment is running high and the fee question at the state school will |undoubt@ily. be brd&ght up in the ext state election. ‘The library fee, as explained by President Henry Suzzallo, was im- posed to bring the quarterly tuition } from $15 to $20, after the legisia- ture had cut dowa the tuition to the lesser a@tount.
