LOVES OLD HOME.
Former Yakiman Expresses Opinion
"Therc Is No Place Like Yakima"

A. J. Pitner, a former resident of
Yakima, but who went to Spokane
two years ago, spent Wednesday in
the city. Mr.. Pitner is a little bit
homesiclz and says he is not asham-
ed of the fact either. Spokane is
great place "but Yakima is BETTER"
is about the way Mr.. Pitner feels
about 1t. He is in the real estate
business there and doing we'll but
he nevertheless pines for the good
old days when he grew fancy apples
and competed for prizes and secured
highest prices for everything that
had his brand upon the box.
"Do you know" said Mr.. Pitner,
"that the Yakima fruit grower ought
to be the most contented man in the
country, and that If he knows when
he is we'll off he will stay with his
little farm? | have looked around
considerably since leaving this city
and have failed thus far to find any
| spot where the returns are so great
and so little risk run by the fruit
grower as right here. Why, do you
ask? Because the Yakima valley is
a natural fruit belt. The liability OF
killing frosts are very small com.
pared with other sections, therefore
it is an exception to the rule when
your farmers do not have a full
crop. And then the quality Of the
fruit. You can look the world over
and find none to compare with that
grown in this valley. You have the
world for a market and no compel
itors.
"North Yakima looks mighty good
to me. The city is really quite metro
politan and when you get your street
and suburban car system in running
order you will certainly be able to
go some The railway systems Of
Spokane have done more to develop
that city than any one thing, in my
opinion, and I believe you will find
the same rule will apply here.

Every night when the things were

work.
And every night Bill spragetts sat IN the
chimney corner and proved what a Won

asks.
If a woman has a dollar left the day

After a omar reaches 40, her hats

We dc not know how it is in big cit
les, but in small towns the society
women can be distinguished from the
women who are not in society by the
fact tina society women do not wear
union suits and the other women do.
There is a great deal in the theory
of %heredity. but people are inclined 10
believe that a man who says he drinks
because his father did. isn't trying very
hard to swear off. More thar that, 1t
shows mighty little regard for his pa

of 1907 Now you must not be seen on
the streets wearing the comfortable
summer gear. Custom has rules in

shall doff the straw hat after Septem-

If you are a back number in the
matter of style; if you do not cater to

man; if you are bit short of cash
and your wife sold your last years

you are not up on style, you may still
