W|NTON TORPEDO
At LAST ARRIVES
Snappy New Model Attracts a
Great Deal of Attention
on the Streets
By R. R. L'HOMMEDIEU

The first of the real torpedo BODY
motor cars has reached San Francisco
1t is the Winton roadster. For some
time the enthusiasts and those inter
ested in automobiling have heard many
stories of this new model, but words
have failed TO depict the striking ap-
pearance that it presents. 1t is one OF
the speediest looking vehicles ever
seen in San Francisco, and as one
spectator expressed it, would lay the
driver liable for arrest If Mahoney,
the automobile minion of the law was
to see it even going backward.
1t is finished in dark maroon, with
an enormous turtle back, giving the
appearance of whaleback steamer
1t is not all for show for the whale
back is so built that it makes per
feet storag ge room for things needed
on touring that can be carried with
out being thoroughly covered Wlth
dust. as in the ordinary car.
The mechanical features are or the
same high class order of the 1910
Winton, the only change being IN the
design of body.

NOT FRUIT ENOUGH
TO MAKE GOOD PIE
kentuckian Tells People of This
Community That Fruit Crop
IN East is Total Failure

'I planted tomatoes three times
this spring and on the eighteenth of
May they were killed by frost for the
third successive time"
80 far as l know there won't be
enough fruit east of the Rocky Noun
tains this year to make a pie"
These are the two reasons II. J
1berson, of Winchester Ky, gives for
casting his lot with North Yakima. He
is a guest at the Washington Hotel
and has come here for the purpose of
acquiring a ranch upon which, as he
terms it, something can be grown"
Il am no pessimist," continued
1berson. land / am willing to bear my
share of hard luck, but when l had
the tomato experience 1 have related
on the farm back home, l made VI
my mind to come to North Yakima

real estate men at that time | would
be the owner of more property thar
| now possess, but, as l say | am NJ
pessimist. The country around Nortl
Yakima and the city itself sure looks
good to me-"
Aside from his own personal expert
enCeS, lberson related version of the
agricultural situation in the East
which is certainly encouraging to the
local real estate men who are spend
ing the time nowadays wondering
when the Eastern buyers are really
coming. He says that the fruit CrOr
without exception is a failure in Colo
RADIO, kentucky and Arkansas and
that the heavy and late frosts this
year have even damaged the smaller
crops, which are generally pretty re-
liable lbersOn says that on top oi
that the early warm weather caused
universal floods in the lower farmina
countries and that much corn and
other grain has been destroyed. He
further predicts that there will be
hundreds of Eastern farmers like
himself who will begin the Western
pilgrimage this summer and fall il
search of country upon which they
may rely at least part of the time.

Very Heavy Traffic.
Automobiles which passed back
and forth during the day numbered
336 while the teams were total of
2215 and the pedestrians 1884. The
few people on horseback we've
counted as teams and the few people
of bicycles counted as pedestrians
No attempt was made to ascertain the
number of passengers in the automo-
biles and teams and no tally was kert
on the number of street car passcng-
ers. The figures taken, therefore.
represent, in persons. probably lrss
than half the mum Der who used the
crossing during the twelve hours.
Is But Fair Day.
While it is a fact that the day,
Saturday, brought an additional mum
Der of people to the city and thus
added to the tally there must be con-
sidered the other fact that a great
many business men said it was a
quiet day and the still further fact
that because it was Saturday the tally
closing at I o'clock failed to catch
the crowd that would be caught any
other night, for the reason that
numbers remained in the city VINO
otherwise would be crossing users be-
force the closing hour named.
Busiest Hours of Day.
The hours between two and three
o'clock We're the busiest ones of the
day especially with teams. The num-
Der between those hours were 444
east and 304 west. Pedestrians dur
ing the same hour were 1873 east and
1T west while the number of auto
mobiles east was % as compared with
81 west.
Just why these figures We're taken
The Herald does not know but they
are definite and of value as statistics.
incidentally it may be said that the
man who made the tally says he
wouldn't repeat the day at the same
wages
