Stinson Eyes Starch Plant in Methow Valley near Twisp
Portland magnate C W Stinson visits Methow valley to study potato production for a potential 25000 bushel contract to launch a starch factory next fall. He notes exceptional yields on dry ranches and high starch potential versus eastern potatoes. The Carlton creamery opens with 100 cows and modern equipment to produce high grade butter under expert guidance. Judge Steiner has sent nearly 100 Okanogan County residents to Walla Walla penitentiary, aided by Pendergast and Sheriff Thomas, depopulating the county. Seattle group aims to raise 100000 for F J Heney to expose grafts in Washington.
