CAR COOLER.
Plant Will Probably Be Completed
in Month.

A car cooling plant is being in
stalled by the Yakima Artificial Ice
and Cold Storage company. 1t is
expected the plant will be completed
by the first of next month. The cars
will be cooled by forcing blast of
air through the loaded car, which is
about two degrees below the tenn
perature of the car. This plant will
be of great aid to the local shippers,
as they can take their fruit loaded in
a refrigerator car, and have the old
blast forced through it, and the ship
ment can be made and arrive at
destination in excellent condition. A
large amount of the fruit shipped
from here arrives at its destination
in spoiled condition. but by using
the plant and icing the car it may
arrive in the eastern market in as
good condition as il was shipped.

agents the present condition of the

the happiest point it has been for
years. With wages at the top notch,
lots of men TO fill the positions and
all kinds of positions for the men
the situation is certainly a pleasing
one.
Only in a few trades is there de-
mand for men which cannot be fill

When the state board of health
convenes in this city July 30 a num-
Der of important local and state mat
ters will be discussed. 1t was
through the personal work of DR..
Philip Frank, a member of the state
board of health, that the board will
meet here. DR.. Frank brought be-
fore the board the necessity OF the
inspection of number of problems,
which need the attention of the de-
partment, and after impressing the
matter upon them for some time
was successful in securing the meet.
ing here. This will mean a great
deal to the city and valley as cond..
tons which are now unsanitary will
be looked into and radical changes
made.
One of the most important mat.
tiers which DR.. Frank wishes to bring
before the board. and which will be
thoroughly discussed is the question
ing its sewage in the Yakima river.
The situation will be taken up from
every standpoint and an inspection
made as to whether or not the sew.
age from this city communicates the
waters of the stream, making it dan
gerous and a menace to the health
Of the public living in towns below
Yakima, where the water is taken
and used for domestic purposes.
W. j. Roberts, sanitary engineer
OF the state board Of health, will be
present, and he will make a thorough
investigation of the sewage ques-
ton. Other local conditions which
need remedying will be placed before
the board by DR.. Frank, and it is
very probable that vast improve
ments will be made.

Clerks Office Makes More None,

Clerks Office Makes More Money
1t is expected the additional fees
which the county clerks office is
authorized to collect in probate cases
under the new law passed by the
last legislature will increase the rev
enue of the office several hundred
dollars. Under the law which has
been in effect for the past two years
there has been a decrease in the re-
ceipts Of the office on probate cases.
Under the new law the fees will be
over double the fees under the old
law. At the present time there is
very little probate business in this
county, and the additional fees Will
not make a very material increase,
but County Clerk Nichols states thar
next year there will be large in
crease in the receipts.
Under the old law all probate
cases were filed for the single filing
fee of IS. Under the new law a fee
of SO is charged for filing a petition
to sell real estate, and fee of IS ad-
ditional is required for filing final
account. On issuing a commission
to take deposition in a case where
there is a will there is an additional
fee of 81. Or filing petition for
the contest of any will a fee of s25
is charged.
