Freewater, May 2S.-A meeting of
the board of directors of the Freewater
Canning & Preserving company is be-
ing held this afternoon for the pur-
pose of discussing subjects in connec-
ton with the opening of the cannery.
Two carloads of machinery have been
received which is now being installed
by experts who are now here for that
purpose. Things are being arranged
to can a large amount of fruits and
vegetables this season. Prospects are
bright for a good opening year for
the new establishment.
The Touchet ball team played ball
here Sunday afternoon, when the
Touchet team won the game by
score of'14 to 4.
Strawberries are being shipped out
daily, nearly two carloads having
gone out nearly every day for week.
While the crop is short only half
crop being received in many instances
the berries are bringing a very good
price, which will help the growers out.
1t is understood that the dealers are
paying the growers from $3.50 to $3.50
and upwards a crate, at this time.
A number of buyers have been here
during the past few days for different
large firms, among them being F. z.
Umbach, with H. ]. Shinn & Co.,
wholesale commission and fruit deal
ers of Spokane. These buyers are pur-
chasing all the berries that it is pos
sible for them to get.
| Prospects are excellent for all late
berries and some cherries are already
being brought in, but not enough to
ship. 1t is now feared that berry
pickers will be short as many of those
employed will go into the alfalfa
fields to cut hay.

asked that one big building be erected
for these districts near where the
Union church stands, and 1t is cited
that the one school will do for all
the districts. There are some remon-
strators who oppose it, saying that
several of the families live too far
for such a school. It is understood
that the question will be voted. upon
in very short time.

Many people were greatly alarmed
Friday when the Herald brought the
first news of smallpox being discov-
cred in North Yakima. Since that
time two more cases have developed
b the city. It is understood that q
Seattle paper will appear this morn
ing containing lurid account of
the smallpox scare in this valley.
That there is smallpox here there is
no room nor need to doubt. That 1t
is startlingly serious is another mat
ter. 1t is always we'll to take every
precaution The school board should
take every measure to keep the
school children free from any CON
tact with the disease. But there is
no immediate alarm to be felt, as
DR.. Tetreau, health officer, is highly
efficient and can probably guard
against a general epidemic. A small
pox scare is harmful to the city and
to the valley. Tie Herald believes
that all the news should be pub
lished concerning the outbreak Of
this disease, but exaggeration Is
harmful, aad the Herald will not ex-
aggerate, as is customary with some
papers Of doubtful accuracy. It is
up 70 the people to guard themselves
well. but at the present time there
seems to be no cause for serious
alarm.

NOT EFFECT TETON.

From an unimpeachable source
the Herald furnished interesting in
formation Tuesday morning relative
to the work on the government pro-
jects. All conditions seem to have
conspired to make the progress on
Irrigation work most difficult this
year. But the Yakima country has
been fortunate. The great Tieton
project will not be effected to any
great extent by these conditions. The
contractors are so placed that beyond
doubt material and labor can be
secured to carry on the work to a
completion in 1910 as stated by the
Herald
Local men interested in the propo-
sition are optimistic and there seems
to be no reasonable objection to an
investment in Teton lands. In fact
there is no more attractive PROPOSE
ton in the northwest. These lands
give greater promise than any wat
cred by other great irrigation pro
jects in the west The projects along
the Snake river are of secondary i'm
portance when it comes to the value
of the surrounding ands. The great
wastes to be reclaimed in Arizona
Nevada and New Mexico can have no
comparison to the valuable proper
ties which will be reclaimed by the
Teton project. There is no need to
be troubled with the outlook. The
Teton project will be completed and
land under irrigation by 1910 at the
latest Some lands will be under
water in 1909 Realty investments
are as whole probably the safest
Investments of any. Money placed
in lands in the Yakima valley i'm
mediately takes on a larger value
and continually grows, bringing If
to the investor large returns.
