Candidate News.

r. B. Walker, the republican candi-
date for county treasurer, has had sew
rial years. expersence in the various
county offices of Whitman county and
is thoroughly qualified for the position
Besides, if elected, he will move to
Prosser and become Il citizen here, in
stead Of having a bank clerk perform
the duties of treasurer. The county
funds will not all go into one bank,
nor will the treasurer's office he located
in one. There is no reason why Mr..
Walker should not get the full repub.
lican strength at the polls, and if he
does his election is assured -Prosser
Bulletin.
Johu w. Randall Of Richland, repub-
lican candidate for sheriff, spent Tues
day and yesterday in town getting ac-
quainted with the people. He says he
thinks he is entitled 10 the full republi-
can vote, that he was fairly nominated
and that, if elected, he will obey the
full spirit of the law in the adrninistra-
ton of the duties of the office. Mr..
Randall says he has served two terms as
city marshal in his former home in
Wisconsin and one term as deputy
sheriff. He is pleasant gentleman to
meet and makes II good impression.
J. L. Robinson Of Richland, demo-
cratic candidate for county clerk, and
Clinton Stacer of Kennewick, on the
same ticket for county attorney. were
in town Tuesday. The former is not
running very fast, being ptted against
}. d. Marsh, the present incumbent,

however. is making splendid race.

Carl Vertrees, the nominee for
county superintendent OF schools on
the Republican ticket, is in every
way worthy of the solid support of
his party. His educational quail
hcatiops are of high order and in
addition he. is an experienced
school man Last year he was the
successful principal of the Kenne-
wick schools and taught the pre-
vious year in the city schools at
Aberdeen. Washington. He has
had the confidence Of the present
superintendent, Nj. Gilkey, and
assisted him III conducting examin-
ations and served as a member OF
the County Board of Education, SO
that he is already largely acquaint
ed with the teachers aud school of :
hcers Of the county.
Shortly after he was nominated
he took sick with typhoid fever and
was taken to the hospital at North
Yakima. The fever has run its
course and Mr.. Vertrees will soon
be able to return to the county and
will circulate among the voters dur
ing the closing days of the cam
paign. This explains why you
have not seen and made his ac-
ouaintauce.

ABOUT THOSE COMMISSIONERS.


Shall Prosser have two commits
sioners and the central part of the
county be unrepresented on the
board? This is the issue of the
present commissioner campaign.
When the republican convention
nominated Crosby from the west,
Cresswell from the east and Travis
from the central portion of the
county, it was so evidently fair and
the men named so satisfactory that
there was no talk ofopposition call
didates. Why was Harper named
by the democra's? Who were the
directors to the generally satIsfac-
tory trio of commissioned candi-
dates? Harper was put up at the
behest of certain republican
clique i'll Prosser who promised him
their support because they neede d
two commissioners to carry out
their PERSONAL schemes. The same
men who in violation of the intent
of the law, saw to it that Prosser
had two commissioners when the
county was organized, are now bolt
ing Travis and trying to elect Har-
per to crafty their hoggish propen-
sites. The graft was SO rank then
that it was objected to and severe
ly criticised by one of the Prosser
papers. Yet this same crowd per-
petuated it by SO districtiug the
county that Prosser lies in two COM
missioner districts. 1t was their
fixt purpose to keep maj ,r.ty of
the board at Prosser.
The Republican Convention took
the fair aud impartial view of the
natter and when it named the can
didates for the Office one from Pros
ser territory, one FROM Kiona and
one from Kennewick territory.
Part of the people of a single pre-
cinct are endeavoring to defeat fair
play for the entire county. They
are doing it in Prosser by raising
the bug boo" of county seat.
They are playing upon Prosser's
abnormal fear of loosing the county
seat. Que minute they say they
have twice the votes Kennewick
has, and the next they claim they
must have two commissioners 10
protect Prosser. In the face of a
law that says that commissioner
districts cannot be changed for four
years; they claim the districts will
be changed to deprive Prosser of a
commissioner; changed, mind you,
by board two of whom are elected
for only two years and will retire
from office long before the law will
permit the districts to be changed.
Suppose, for the sake OF argu-
ment, that the county seat question
will be up two years hence. Every
one knows ii will be three corner
ed contest, Prcsser papers have said
so. Would n'tit be fair that each
contestant have representative on
the board? Will it be fair if Pros
ser has two members on the board?
Rattlesnake, the farming region
on one side is to have a commits
sioner,-Crosby (who has no op-
position) why should Mt the Horse
Heaven, the farming region on the
other side be equally favored !?
Travis is the Horse Heaven COM
missioner.

Quick Cooling of Milk.

The stables should be clean and free
from foul odors. The COWS must be cleaned
before milking Covered pals should be
used, although seldom found except in cer-
tilted diaries, and the milk strained into
cans at once. As.soon as can is full set
it in cold water 21 inches deep. This will
come to the top of the milk. Put the
cover on tight and the jobs done. If the
pals, cans and strainers are free from
germs, this milk will not sour nor faint nor
be gassy nor have stable flavor nor animal
heat 1t will be pure, sweet and clean
every time unless some food or animal dis
turbance has affected it, which, if all other
causes are removed, rarely takes place.
Milk of this character will not only make
more and better cheese and butter, but
would greatly increase the consumption in
its crude form.
This method of milk care will, no doubt,
be strongly criticised and condemned as
heresy. To those who make this conten.
ton let me submit-try it; if you dare not
risk the whole batch, kindly take the milk
saved for family use. As quickly as MIXED,
using care that it shall not be contaminated
with COW hairs or stable filth, strain and
cover and place in ice water. Follow this
practice for week, carefully testing the
cream, the milk and both mixed together,
and prove to your satisfaction that you have
not before had uniformly the finest favored
milk and cream.
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1906-10-26
Cultivation Makes Fruit.

s'We must put brainwork into fruit grow
ing to succeed | believe that more than
half the fruit trees set during the last 10
years have never paid the first cost of the
tree. The trees, as rule, are all right,
but the fault is with u.s. We are allowing
them to starve to death Nothing on our
farms will show good care quicker or make
larger return than fruit tree. -
This is the line of argument advanced by
V. P. De Coster, of Oxford county, Maine,
in an address before the last annual meet
ing of the Maine Pathological Society.
Continuing, he said
II believe we are making mistake in
allowing our trees to bear too heavily. [
think tree properly dressed, pruned and
thinned will bear every year. When it is
allowed to overbear it brings such a strain
on it that it takes years for it to recuperate.
All small and wormy fruit should be picked
off before it ripens. | have visited many
of the most successful orchardists of the
State, and it appears to me that the con-
tinued use of commercial fertilizers sown
or spread on the grass ground will cause
the grass to become root-bound and hard,
and you do not get the results sought
"Cultivation aids the chemicals, so that
better results appear than when omitted.
Fine cultivation, with the application of
liberal fertilizer, has been employed to the
improvement of both trees and fruit. There
fore, the result of my observation is that
the orchardists who are getting the best
results are those who are fertilizing and
cultivating their orchards. Some are doing
it in one way and some in another. Apples
should be thinned usually early in July.
All varieties do not need it. Rhode Island
Greening and Spy are in this class. Bald
wins should be thinned.'

To Pastors, Sunday School Superintendent
and Fraternal Orders,


The ADVOCATE has been publishing free of
cost notices of fairs, festivals, oyster suppers
and picnics. Throughout the year something
of the sort is advertised. We have had re-
quests to publish notices of picnics as long as
three months in advance.
Sometimes these notices occupy more than
half column. They come in late, often, and
put the Office to inconvenience to iusert them.
and when not inserted, for any cause, late re-
ceipt or non-receipt, offense at the omission
has been taken by persons sending them.
Hereafter only notices of religious services
will be published free. When any affair is
gotten up to make money for church, Sunday
school or society, notices of such will be
charged for at usual rates.
And why not? Why should the ADVOCATE
be asked to draw the attendance, when the
ice cream manufacturer, the oyster dealer, the
confectioner and all others furnishing supplies
are paid? 1t is just as important to have buy
ers as to have something to sell.
Some persons think such notices serve just
to fill up, and cost nothing to print. The cost
is the same in proportion as public sales,
store or other advertising. Advertisements
are source of revenue, without which no
paper could be sustained.
Besides, the stockholders contribute to the
support of their own churches, and ought not
to be asked to contribute to churches and
Sunday schools all over the county.
The reasons given above are sufficient to
show all fair people the correctness of the
purpose to cease free advertising of affairs
gotten up to raise money.
