AS for the artillery horses, the
war department is now ready to
furnish those to guard batteries. The
department wants to charge their

Gen. Weybrecht will try TO per-

horses are equipment and 50 should
be furnished free, as are the guns and
harnesses.
Gen. Weybrecht wants twelve
horses each for the Cleveland and
Toledo batteries, or enough to drill
what is called "section" or a gun

four-horse teams and mounts for two
non-commissioned officers, ono

regular innings and had but one
real chance TO score, that arising

Spokane-Living in poverty for

cent she could earn, together with
the meager savings of her daughters,
to meet the expenses of one of the
bitterest family feuds known in the
old country, Mrs. J. H. Voelker, of

from the supreme court at Berlin
that she had been successful in an
action involving the whole, estate of
Count Frederick Voelker, of Mar
bruck, Germany.
The family is one of the oldest in
Germany and the Marbruck estate
is valued in the millions. The share
falling to Mrs. Voelker will keep her
and her daughters in luxury. The
title of count, which would have fall
en- to her husband, now dead, will,
together with the ancestral castle, go
to the second son, Gustav Voelker,
employed in an assay Office in Ana

100 BARREL FLOUR MILL

kennewick is to have a -four and

manufacturing enterprises. The
mill will be of 100 barrel ca pacity.
Messrs. Henley, Case and Nelson,
of Pomeroy. owners of the Pomeroy
FIGURING mills and the City Light
System there, are the promoters of
the new enterprise. They are men
of large means themselves and are
connected with the grain exporting
firm of Campbell, Sanford and Hen
ley, a million dollar concern. at
Portland. The men have been here
most of the week looking over the
situation. They have taken an op-
ton on two acre site in the west
end of town bordering on the rail
road right-of-way, owned by Merit
Dwirc, as site for the mill which
will be operated by electric power.
The deal will be concluded as soon
as an alley on one side of the prop
erty can be widened into street,
giving adequate access to the mills.
If this goes thru as it has every
promise of doing, it will be the best
proposition Kennewick has landed
in many a day.

PROGRESS IN BENTON

An interesting story of develop
ment of natural resources comes
from Benton county. 1t is the an
nOuncement that several artesian
wells have been discovered in the
vicinity of Luzon and the waters are
being reservOired for irrigation pur-
poses. One company reports hav-
ing three large wells in active opera
ton and the machinery on the
ground for sinking many additional
ones. Water is obtained at an aver
age depth of 10 feet and the wells
cost approximately 1000 each.
The water has a temperature of
73 degrees and assists in keeping the
soil warm and Fastening the 1atur-
ing of crops.
Benton county occupies a prom
inent position in the state 1t COM
prises about 800 square miles of
territory, and includes several towns
among them being Prosser, Kenne-
wick, Kiona, Hover and Carley.
The Yakima river crosses the county
and the Columbia forms its eastern
and southern boundaries. Benton
is a new county, and has become
famous because of the Horse Heaven
wheat fields and the dry farming re-
suits in the Rattlesnake hills. With
extended irrigation canals the coun-
ty promises to become one of the
greatest early fruit districts of the
state. Its strawberries and small
fruits are now known as far from
home as the refrigerator cars will
carry them.
Because of intensive farming the
per capita wealth OF Benton county
is greater than i'll many other sec
tons. The state bureau of statistics
gives the people credit for having
1929 per capita for taxable purpos-
es in real property, and 1922 per
capita in personal property. The
actual cash assets would probably
be much more than the figures Civ
en-. The small farmers engage in
growing berries and fruits for tie
best markets for the reason that
their crops are put on the market
at times when there are no compel
itors. The strawberries, rhubarb
asparagus and potatoes of Benton
county command the highest prices.
Farming under irrigation gives
wonderful returns in the warm fields
OF Benton county. 1t is reported
