THROW COMPETITION
OPEN TO ALL DISTRICTS
Grape Carnival will Bar No One
Valuable Prizes Added to Premium
List by Railroad Heads

Those in charge of preparing the
premium list for Kennewick's Firs,
Annual Grape Carnival have decided
to take down the bars and open
the competition to any district
which may see fit to send an exhi.
bit of its products. This mean:
that if the lewiston Charleston OF
any of the older grape-growing dis
tricts want to come down here and
try to carry away some of our prizes
they are welcome to the pleasure
White Bluffs people are Dragging
that they are going to make the
growers in the lower valley sit ur
and pay attention, and no doubt
Richland will send some fine pro-
ducts of the vineyard, as will Hover,
Finley and Alfalfa. From 500 to
600 crates will be or exhibition, it
is confidently expected.
Several important additions have
been made to the premium list as
published last week. Chief of these
is handsome cup to be given by
Louis w. Hill, President of the
Great Northern, for the best dis
play of any single grapes, and a
check for $25 from President How
ard Elliott of the Northern Pacific
for the best display raised on any
N. P. lines. The Hill cup is to re
main the property of the CONNER
cial Club until won twice by the
same exhibitor. 1t will remain on
display in the Club rooms and will
be labeled with the name and ad-
dress of the winner.
The prizes for the best display by
any one exhibitor are well worth
trying for. The winner will re-
ceive both the Hill cup and Mr..
Elliott's $25 cash offer, second prize
is SIS in cash and third gets a
handsome grape dish offered by F.
L. Stock.
The Hover Investment Co. also
made handsome addition to the
premim list by Offering warranty
deed to one of their residence lots
for display containing largest num-
ber of varieties grown by any one
exhibitor.
The prize list as whole is gen.
erous one and should be the means
of stimulating some hot competition
It is safe to say that the winning
exhibits, which will be grouped and
sent to the State Fair and Land
Shows, will be strong factors in es.

valley in the grape-growing industry

LOOKING AHEAD

The state convention of post
masters will be held in Wenatchee
this year, and Spokane is making
every effort to be the host for 1912.
Postmasters in Eastern Washington
will be entertained in Spokane next
Sunday, leaving there for the
convention at the Apple City on
Monday and Tuesday. The Cham
Der of Commerce of Spokane has
taken the matter in hand and will
show the government agents the
beauties of the Falls City in autos
during the day, winding up with a
big banquet in the evening.
Postmaster Wheaton is figuring on
having the convention held in Ken
newick, and goes to Wenatchee with
the idea of doing bit of lobbying
for that purpose. He feels that it
is only question as to whether
Kennewick will have a place large
enough to accommodate the visitors,
but by two years hence there will be
no doubt as to that. Kennewick
could show the visitors mighty
good time if they should decide to
hold future convention here.

sense, is rather a broad one, and
means that you must know a firms
financial standing and their ability
to pay. Their popularity with
their trade is also significant, as
well as their equipment to do bus
iness, and above all, perhaps the
most important requisite is intimate
knowledge about firms policy on
reporting off condition of fruit and
rejecting cars.
1t has been my personal exper-
ience that this volume of necessary
information is so large, the time in
acquiring it so great and the ex-
pense so heavy that 1 frankly say to
you that the average orchardist,
under ordinary conditions, can
neither spare the time to do it
properly nor afford the expense.
The facts as stated so far seem to
me sufficiently plain to convince
any unprejudiced mind of the ne
cessity of associations. However,
as an additional clincher on the ar
gument, | want to call your atten-
ton to the methods necessarily en-
ployed by individuals, or in vogue
in districts without associations,
and then draw a comparison, that
you may form your own conclusions.
In such cases a grower must adopt
one Of two plans in disposing of his
fruit-he must either consign (and
if he does it must be at random
or he must sell to local or visiting
buyers, without being properly
posted, consequently there can be
but little certainty of securing re-
suits that can be obtained through
an association that is properly pos
ted and ably managed. There is
an additional uncertainty as to
what returns he will receive, and
when, and a possibility of one OF
those red ink account sales"
which you have probably heard
about. Another unfavorable con-
dition arises in the absence of an
association that works to the dis
advantage of the abler, business-like
orchardists, when the smart buyer

THE UNEXPECTED
COMES TO PASS
kennewick's Much-Dubbed Ball
Team Gets Its Dander Up
And Wins a Game
1t really happened.

1t really happened.
Kennewick won a game, and,
moreover, whodyspose they beat?
Why, none other than Wamba's s
Wonders, Prosser's Pets, the would
be champions of the whole durn
valley!
Yes, sir! They actually went and
done it. Went right up to the
present county seat, last Sunday,
and, fortified with a bat-bag full of
beezum, mysteriously gathered from
some unknown source, they kicked
the stuffin out of the County-Seaters
in whirlwind finish. Score was
four to three.
The game was rather a featureless
one up until the ninth inning which
opened with Kennewick carrying
the small end of the two-to-three
score. The first two Kennewick
men to bat in that inning were easy
outs and it looked mighty like
another defeat for the local boys.
Then Larkin came to bat, and after
two strikes had been called on him.
lined out his third clean single of
the day. Gascoigne advanced him
to third with another single and
Larkin came home on an over
throw, tying the score, Gascoigne
landing on third. Then Joe Perry
met the ball with one of his husky
left-hand swings and scored Gas
coigne.
In Prosser's half they got two
runners on bases through errors,
and no one out. Punk" thereup-
on rose to the occasion and famed
the next two Prosserites, the third
man ending the game by sending
up an easy fly.
Larkin whitfield 13 of his op-
ponents and Richards famed seven.
The hits and errors were pretty
evenly distributed, each team get
ting a half-dOzen or so.

ASSOCIATIONS AND THE METH
obs OF ORGANIZING THEM
By E. H. Shepard Editor Better Fruit Hood River Oregon

The production and marketing OF
fruit are as essentially different as
manufacturing and selling, and in
order to do either we'll requires
special ability. Nearly every bus
mess naturally divides itself into
certain departments, and success is
obtained by each department being
handled by an individual both COM
petent ard able to concentrate his
efforts along that line. For in
stance, railroads are divided into
freight, passenger and operating de-
partments with an executive in
charge of each. Any large mer-
camille business employs a buyer
and a manager of the sales depart
ment. A factory has its superin-
tendent and a man in charge of the
sales, recognizing the Importance,
in fact the necessity, of separating
the producing force from the SELL
ing force. / cannot see where the
fruit industry is different, and I
believe l can make the assertion
without fear of successful contra
diction that growing fruit is an in.
dustry and selling fruit business;
each should have a head and be
operated separately. feel positive
that every grower who has large
orchard, or a small one with diver
sified products, will admit that the
farm in either case requires prac-
tically all of his time.
For manager to successfully
market fruit, it is necessary to
know daily by wire the condition
of every market where he is doing
business, or may be doing business,
it is important to know just what
varieties are wanted in every city,
and in addition essential to be
posted from what districts each par
ticular market is supplied, and also
when that district begins shipping,
the extent of the supply and the
end of its season. In addition to
all this it is equally necessary to be
familiar with the standing of each
firm you are either dealing with or
expect to deal with. The word
"standing'', in this particular

STUDIES COME FIRST

Football is not to be the CHIEF
course of study at the kennewick
high school this year. Superin
tendent Lewis has made few new
rules in regard to the game that are
not taking we'll with the boys, but
will be greeted with enthusiasm by
the parents. The way the matter
stands it lies wholly with the boys,
as to whether schedule will be ar
ranged and played or not. Last
year the rule Of the faculty was
that the players must be up" in
at least three subjects or they were
disqualified, and it appeared that
several of the boys were going to
school for football, mostly, taking
few easy subjects to qualify. This
year the studies come first, four
passing marks being required be-
fore a player is eligable to represent
the school on the gridiron.
Mr.. Lewis is strong for the game
but cannot stand to have it interfere
with the work of the class rooms,
and has made the new ruling in
hopes that the boys will see things
in the right light and raise the
standard for the grades along with
their game.

BUS DRIVERS MUST USE CARE

The railroads, unofficially, have
refused to station flagman at the
crossings at Seuenth and Washing
ton streets, and the school board,
in order to make more remote the
possibility of an accident to the
school children. has ordered the
bus drivers to send one of the older
children across the tracks before the
bus crosses.
These two crossings have bad ap-
proaches and are the two that are
most used, both by the general pub
lie and the school buses. These
precautions are deemed necessary
until such time as the railroads see
fit to station hagmen there.

COMMITTEES MAKING
EVERYTHING READY
Carnival Workers Realize Time is
Short ani Many Things Remain
to be Done

The committee on amusements
the Carnival are a. busy set of fell
lows just about now. They have
set out to show the carnival crowds
a good time and are going to do it,
even if they let their own personal
business go hang.
The committee to arrange the
parades are going to get up fine
showing, from present indications.
Parades will be held Thursday eve
ming, just previous to the corona
ton of the queen, and another Fri.
day afternoon. They will be made
up something as follows: Mayor
Bier, on horseback; the Commercial
Club Band, the Queens float, city
officials, officers of the Commercial
Club, distinguished visitors and
judges of fruit exhibit, IN automo-
biles; floats of lodges and business
houses, citizens in automobiles.
Concessions have been sold to
each Of the women's clubs for a
booth at the pavilion. J. Corder
will have a refreshment booth and
will handle the confetti con-
cession. It is expected that the K
P.'s and probably the Odd Fellows
will have concessions and pull of
some sort Of amusement stunts.
While the big attraction of the
whole show, of course, will be the
grand collection of freaks, fakes
and fun-makers which will be
herded together in the Commercial
Clubs own booth.

Annual Excursion of Falls City Men
Arrived in City Early This
Morning

The sixth annual excursion of
the Spokane Merchants Association
with sixty-fve Falls City business
men on board. arrived in this city
from Pendleton at an early hour
this morning.
A letter to Secretary Gardner of
the Commercial Club some days ago
advised the Club that the Spokane
people would prefer that no pre-
parations be made for entertaining
them. Consequently no regular
program was arranged for the Wis
itors, though a good-sized delega-
ton OF business men gathered at the
station shortly after seven O'Clock
to welcome the visitors.
Most OF the junketers put in the
two hours of their stay here in a
get-acquainted round of the busi-
ness houses while few were taken
in automobiles for short tour of
the valley.
Their train was made up of three
sleepers, diner, observation car and
baggage car. They left Spokane
Tuesday night and will reach home
again tonight, after having visited
eighteen cities and towns along the
lines of the O.-W. r. & N.

YOUNG PEOPLE
WE'D AT CHURCH
Ma. Gravenslund Becomes Bride
e # Edwin H. Mann-Re-
ception at Home

At7:30 O'Clock last evening at
The Presbyterian church occurred the
marriage of Louise May, eldest
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. John
Grayenslund, to Edwin H. Mann.
Promptly at the hour set, the
bridal party entered the church and
nroceeded to the altar, marching to
the strains of the wedding march
played by Mrs. ]. B. Rose. Rev.
FL. Fraser, pastor OF the church,
oaiciated. The church was taste
fully decorated and was filled with
a large audience of the relatives and
friends of the contracting parties.
The bride was beautifully gowned
in white messaline and carried a
boquet Of roses and lilies of the
valley. She was attended by Miss
Ruby slaugenhaupt, maid of honor,
and Miss Helen Williams, brides
maid, who wore gowns of pale
yellow. David Williams acted as
goomsman and Messrs. Keene,
Russell and Gould acted as ushers,
Little Wilma Hoyt and Dorothea
Schlund were flower girls.
Immediately following the cere-
mony the guests followed the happy
young people to the Gravenslund
home on Third street where a re-
eeption was held. Mr.. and Mrs.
Mann were to leave on one of the
night trains for a short wedding
tour, though which way they were
headed or where they were going
they we're reticent to state. They will
be at home to their many friends
IN their new home on the High
lands which they expect to have
finished by October 10Th.
That the newly welded couple
stand high in the esteem of their
many friends was shown by the pro-
fusion of beautiful and valuable
gifts received by them. They are
indeed starting their married life
under happy auspices and it is the
wish OF all who have had the pleas
ure OF knowing them that their
happiness may never grow less.
Mrs. Mann has resided with her
parents in this city for a number of
years where she has ever been a
eader in social and musical affairs
and In the church. Mr.. Mann
came to the valley about two years
sgo and was one of the first of the
Hlghlanders who have done SO
much to bring that section of the
saley to its present high state OF
Development.
