Five Thousand Dollar Shipment For
Distribution In Eastern
WashinEtOn

The Chas. H. Collins company is
expecting the arrival of a carload
OF cheese any day. Mr.. Collins
states that this is the first solid car
load OF cheese that has ever been
shipped to any town between Seat
tie and Spokane, with the possible
exception Of North Yakima. The
car, for the most part, will contain
all the ordinary kinds of cheese.
and will be stored in Kennewick,
but the smelly kind will be unload

INJURIES FATAL
TO MRS. TULLES
Young Woman Victim of Alcohol
Explosion Passes Away after
Ten Days Suffering

Mrs. R. P. Tulles passed from this
life at her home in the Garden
Tracts about noon, Friday, August
25, after ten days of intense suffer-
ing from burns inflicted by an ex-
plotion of alcohol.
On Tuesday, August 18th, while
attempting to fill a lighted alcohol
stove, the five-gallon can of fuel ex-
ploded in her hands. For week fol-
lowing the accident the physicians
in charge had great hopes that her
bravery and strong constitution
would be the means of her surviv-
ing the cruel injuries, but last
Wednesday it was plain to that the
sufferers spirit was lowering be-
tween life and death. Thursday
evening she passed into a state of
coma, and unconsciousness kindly
remained with her until the end
came.
Mrs. Tulles was formerly Miss
Carrie Wallace. daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Oscar Wallace, of Spo-
kane, and granddaughter of Colonel
Wallace, after whom the town of
Wallace. Idaho, was named. She
was born at that place, November
8, 1888, and was the first white
child to have as birthplace the
then new mining camp. She was
married to Russell P. Tulles in
January, 1910, and leaves the
stricken husband with a little son
less than year old. Her parents
and one brother, DR.. Wallace, of
Newport, WASH, were at her bed
side for several days preceding her
death.
Funeral services were held at the
Methodist Episcopal church Satur-
day at three O'Clock, with Rev. C.
E. Wilkinson, rector of St. Paul's
Episcopal church officiating.
The funeral services were largely
attended and the many beautiful
floral pieces with which the casket
was banked were testimonials of
the sorrow in the hearts of the
many neighbors and townspeople
gathered there. All the business
houses suspended activity during
the hour of the service. The body
was taken to Spokane on the night
train and laid at rest Sunday in
Greenwood Cemetery.

THOSE WHO SMUDGED
HAVE FINE PEACHES
Full Crop of Good Fruit Rewards Eff
Orts of Those Who Burned the
Midnight Crude Oil

The peach harvest is about all
gathered and the result has been an
average of from one-third to one
half crop. Some few places re-
port full crop, and even better.
The orchard of D. J. Beinhart pro-
duced fully as fine a crop as last
year, his output being about 800
boxes which he disposed of at a
dollar box. The adjoining Or
chards of I. Smith and sons have
produced a full crop of 700 boxes
and the Meyers and Wieland tract
will market 1900 boxes.
The results on those few tracts
which bore full crops, drives home
with emphasis the importance of
having an adequate smudging out
fit, generous supply of oil and of
using it in a determined and whole.
hearted manner. While last springs
frosts were unusual in severity and
duration, they but went to show
what the smudge pot will do when
rightly handled, to offset the harm
full forces of nature. The orchard
lists learned a severe lesson last
April-that if they are to fight the
frost evil, they must be prepared
for extremes and that half-hearted
methods are but waste of sleep
and money.

THOUSAND TONS
WATERMEL0NS
rxo.ct To Ship Seventy Cars Be-
fore Season Ends-Crop is
a Moneymaker

This season has demonstrated
beyond doubt the money-making
nssibilities of the watermelon in
,bis valley. Last spring, when it
.,s known that the fruit crop
.ould be light, many ranchers put
IN large patches of melons and the
risaom of this move has been
proven by the ready sale and good
prices which have prevailed.
The dealers are now shipping on
an average of three cars. or about
4s tons, daily. and so far a total of
IS cars have gone out. For melons
already shipped the price has
ranged from s12 down to 50 90 per
Ion. Manager DeRegt Of the Ken
uewick District Fruit Growers AS
sOciation predicts that the growers
yill receive an average price of
about $3.50 for the crop, which he
stimates will be in the neighbor-
hood Of 70 cars or 1000 tons.
He considers that the steady de-.
nand and good prices are remark
able in face of this years adverse
conditions. The season in this
valley was from two to three weeks
later than ordinary so that the first
shipments had to co mpete in a
market overcrowded with Cal.
ibnia melons. He thinks that in
an ordinary year the opening prices
for Kennewick melons would be
several dollars per ton higher than
this year and prophesies that in
sasons to come the ranchers will
give more acreage and attention to
this valuable crop.
So far this years shipments have
gone almost entirely to Spokane,
and a few to Idaho and Montana
points. In shipping to the east
the local dealers have been averag-
lng about dollar ton more than
Ioppenish and Wapato shippers
Who have been supplying the Coast
points.

included in the plans of the NUM-
cipality for the coming fall and
winter. But as yet no movement
has been directed toward acquiring
ground for public park or a play
ground. Every month of delay in
this regard will mean perhaps years
Of regret in the future. We read
almost daily of this city or that
waking up to the fact that it is
woefully behind the progress of the
times in the matter of providing
places of recreation and comfort
for its people. Kennewick should
be spared the necessity of such an
awakening. Why should we ever
fall asleep to the demands of mod
ern and progressive civilization?
AS the city grows, the country
developes, and the homes multiply,
Kennewick will need not one, but
several parks and there is no time
like the present for breaking ground
for the first one. Sites suitable by
Nature for river front, island, or
upland parks are available; there
is no place under the sun where
tree growth is more rapid or eli
matte conditions are better adapted
to Horticulture. Why then should
we delay?
This fall should see a definite
park program outlined and by next
spring a good beginning should
have been made on our first recrea-
ton grounds. Here is a work that
should enlist the hearty support of
every interest in the city, a work
in the carrying out of which, the
city council, the school board the
Commercial Club, the women's
clubs, the business men and pri-
vate citizens should unite. Not
only is the subject one worth the
consideration of our municipal,
commercial, business and social or
carnations, but the idea is worth
putting into effect. Let's talk it
over? No. Let's get together and
do something, now, today.

Why Not a ark, Now?
q In Building for Commercial Prominence Let Us Not
Neglect the Matters Of Civic Beauty and Public Comfort

While the live wires of Kenne-
wick are organizing forces and
reaching out for the things that will
make for greater prominence in the
commercial and industrial life OF
the Inland Empire, we can i'll af-
ford to lose sight of the opportun-
tiles at hand for greater home COM
forts for our people and more at
tractive city for those we hope to
bring into our borders. Our busi-
ness men in pledglng the finances
and our Commercial Club in direct
ing the publicity campaign are to
be commended upon their progress
siveness and encouraged in their
enterprise. 1t is we'll that we have
awakened to the necessity OF bring
ing forcibly to the notice of the in
dustrial leaders of the country our
stragetical location as the natural
and logical commercial center for
the Columbia, Snake and Yakima
River Valleys; the necessity OF ex-
plotting the fertility of our soil, the
sunshine of our summers and the
mildness of our winters; the neces-
sity OF more widely advertising our
early strawberry, our luscious peach
and the never failing harvest OF a
diversity of profitable crops; the
necessity of heralding far and near
the fact that our city is building
upon the greatest avenue OF trade
and commerce the West will ever
know-the Columbia River.
1t is we'll, we repeat, that we
have united in carrying out this
great work. But after all what is
the real test Of permanent progress

in city building? Is it merely num-
erical population or is it high
class OF citizenry? Is the goal of
success for which we are striving a
bigger city or a better city? Our
advertising campaign will undoubt-
edly bear fruit and another twelve
months will bring many new faces
among us from the East, the Middle
West and the West. But are we
doing our full duty as progressive
citizens in providing the things
that will make our city great in
beauty, in education, and in all
the finer developments of civiliza-
ton?
We admit that in this regard
Kennewick has made remarkable
progress and its record for morality
and high character of citizenship
will stand alongside any other city
of equal years or size in the North
west but there still remains many
things to be done to make the aver
age man hopeful and glad that he
happens to live and be raising his
family in this particular city. Our
streets are nothing to boast of, our
vacant lots and our back alleys,
if not unsanitary, are unsightly,
and we have nothing in the way of
parks or public Fairgrounds and
opportunities for healthful recrea-
ton or wholesome amusements are
lacking.
Better streets is a matter for the
consideration of the city council
and their early improvement by
the laying Of sidewalks and either
oiling or paving, we understand, is

sundays GAME TO
Be PLAYED OVER
Contest Finished Under Protest Nav
be Declared No Game-Umps
Has Bad Day

Captain Joe Martin is in Pasco
today and probably will make ar
rangements with the Pasco team by
which last Sundays game which
ended so unsatisfactory will be
thrown out.
The contest ended, so the score
book shows, with score of 4 to 3
in Pasco's favor. Pasco batted
out one run in the first and Ken
newick tied in the third on a scratch
hit by Cryderman and Stull's
double. Kennewick got two more
in the fifth when the Pasco slab
artist hit a couple of men and Cry
dermah and Conroy batted out
singles. Pasco tied the score in
the seventh, after two were out, on
an error by Howe and singles by
Gascoigne and Ireland.
The trouble came in the eighth.
Howe slammed out double and
Larkin got to first on an error,
Howe going to third. Larkin took
a long lead toward second and drew
the catcher's throw. at which Howe
started for home. Howe was headed
off and lively game of tag took
place in which the whole Pasco
team engaged. The runner final
ly broke thru and would have
scored easily had he not been in
tentionally blocked and held by
one of the Pasco players. Umpire
Connolly called Howe out amid the
hot protests of the .Kennewick
players and rooters. Capt. Martin
called his team off the field, His
Umps forfeited the game to Pasco,
9 to @, and it looked like a young
riot for a minute.
Finally to give the crowd a fair
deal, the boys went back on the
field and the game went ahead, be-
ing won in the next inning by
Pasco on Kull's double and a
scratch hit by Mcclure.
By going back and finishing the
game, the Kennewick team showed
good sportsmanship and founL favor
with the Pasco crowd, the most of
whom, after the game, agreed that
Connolly's decision was wrong.
The game very likely will be play
ed 0 yer on the local field next Sun
day. Needless to state, Mr.. Con.
molly of Pasco will not umpire.
Larkin pitched a nice game, as
also did Ireland for Pasco. Punk"
struck out thirteen men, and
was batted safely nine times. Ire
land famed eight and was touched
for four singles and two doubles.

OUTLOOK IN UPPER HOUSE
Reciprocity Expected to Receive More
Friendly Treatment.

Washington, April 13.-Uncertainty
exists as to what course will be pur-
sued in the senate with reference to
the Canadian reciprocity bill when il
reaches that body, possibly next week
Senator Penrose, who will become
the new chairman of the committee
on finance, is friendly to the bill, anc
will urge favorable action The
friends of the bill also make decided
gain in the absence of Senator Hale
from the committee. He not only op-
posed the measure in committee, but
obstructed it in the senate.
Senator Bailey, who moves up to
the place of senior minority member
of the committee, is opposed to the
bill, and will make an effort to have
il amended. Senator Cummins, who
probably will have one of the places
to be assigned to the progressives on
the committee, also will seek to have
the measure amended, but will ap-
rroach the subject from a friendly
point of view.
With the bill once before the senate
a fairly long contest is anticipated. 1t
Is generally believed that in the end
ii will pass, but ii will not be without
opposition.
