CAUSE OF TOMATO BLIGHT

Discovery has been made by S.
A. Wright, fruit grower and truck
farmer at Opportunity, Wash, that
western tomato blight is caused by
Ia form of bacteria in the soil. His
remedy is crop rotating to purify
the earth, treating the seed with a
solution of formaldehyde and setting
the plants in non-infected soil after
taking them from the hotbed.
MIR. Wright has reported his dis
covery to the experiment station of
the Washington State College at
Pullman and expects to interest
agricultural colleges and experiment
stations in the Northwest in move
ment to stamp out the mysterious
disease, which has baffied experts
for years and cost market gardeners
in the Pacific slope country hundreds
of thousands of dollars.
Like the so-called wilt which
is literally wiping out the fax
industry in many parts of Montana
and North Dakota said MIR.
Wright in Spokane today, the
blight first attacks the root of the
tomato plant. The rest soon be-
comes effected and is rendered
worthless. Each year adds to the
amount of injurious germs in the
land and the crop becomes smaller.
In some instances the soil is so in
fected that tomatoes will not grow
and that soon will be the case in
many parts of the west if the blight
is not checked.
The growers must unite if the
fight on the blight is to be success
full, as the germs are easily spread
| by irrigation bitches, wind and farm
implements. To insure healthy
plants every grower should raise his
seed from vigorous, blight-resisting
stock and use only fresh and puri-
fed soil in making the hotbed and
take care of the plants after they
have been set out in the field. The
remedy is 80 simple that every to-
mato grower should join in this cam
paign against the blight

In Orchard and Field
qHappenings Of Moment to the Man Behind the Plow
NET PROFIT IN APPLE GROWING.

The following estimate Is given by
MIR. G.. C. Elkelberner, in Wenatchee
World. He omits expense of plow-
ing and cultivating, holding that
the growing of clover or some legu-
minous cover crop increases pro-
ductiveness to more than an equiva-
lent for these items. Estimate fol-
lows:
Eight per cent. on 81, 900
The Kennewick courier. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1905-1914, 1911-02-24

This makes total expense of
61k cents per box. Mr.. p. w.
Lawrence kept very careful track Of
his expenses and they amounted to
81 cents per box. Other growers
have Teen making careful estimate
for years past, and it is safe to say
that the cost of growing and mar
keting box Of apples ranges be-
tween 80 and 60 cents, based on
81 900 per acre valuation of the or.
chard. A lower valuation would
reduce cost accordingly.
The amount of net profit is al
ways the object of interest in any
business or industry, but frequent
ly a good business man hesitates to
make known actual cost of produce
ton and the same is the case with
some of our best farmers. It is the
production of standard article at
It's lowest cost that calculation
should be made, based on a fair
average market price, and that is
where some growers are able to OBJ
tain larger margin than others.
The Kennewick courier. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1905-1914, 1911-02-24

Figuring 600 boxes to the acre,
this would make a total expense of
about 80 cents. Added to the 80
cents are the marketing charges, as

REVIEW OF POLITICAL SIT
UATION IN WASHING
TON TOWNSHIP

The time is drawing near for filing
nomination papers prior to the coming
primary in September. A view of the
situation in Washington township as
regards the offices to be filled reveals
the following;
One clerk to elect.
One treasurer to elect.
Three trustees to elect.
One ditch supervisor to elect.
Two constables to elect.
One assessor to elect.
Two members OF board of education.
The terms of trustees, clerk, treas
urer, constables and assessor are each
for two years. Those of ditch super
visor and members of board of educa-
ton, four years each.
There is no justice of the peace to
elect this fall, as they yet have two
more years to make their full term of
four years.
g. G. Thatcher and VIM. Rabe, trus-
tees, are now completing their second
terms. Treasurer Theo. Schurman has
now served four terms. John Nc
Queen, trustee, has served one term.
George l.. Schroyer, clerk, has served
two terms by election and one term by
appointment. Nathaniel Boise, asses
sor, has completed two terms, or four
years. A. J. Burkett, member of board
of education has served one term of
four years, and John Konrath has filled
a like period on the same board.

GOLDEN WEDDING
COUPLE
Trinity Catholic Church at Cold
water Scene of Notable Ger
emOny Last Sunday.

Last Sunday morning at $3.50 o'clock
| Trinity Catholic Church at Coldwater
was filled with relatives and friends of
| Mr.. and Mrs. Bernard Hickman, liv-
ing three miles southeast of that vii
lage to help them celebrate the fiftieth
anniversary of their wedding.
The venerable couple were taken
from their home to the church by Hem
ry Pohl in the Romer automobile.
which was appropriately decorated
with colors, and ushered into the
church amid the sweet strains of a
quickstop from the Coldwater hand
Rev. j. Schopp, their pastor, sang high
mass, at which the aged couple and
relatives received holy communion.
AT the close of mass they received
special blessing. They then returned
to their luxurious home, where in the
afternoon invited friends and relatives
numbering about $50 persons, assem-
bled to congratulate them and partake
of bounteous supper.
Mr.. Hickman was born in Russia,
November 20, 1888, and came to this
county when quite young, and became
one of the pioneer settlers of Marion
township. On July %, 1861, he was
united in marriage to Mary Lindhaus
by Rev. Peter Wilhelma, in the church
at st. Rosa, which has since been re-
placed by new structure. Mrs. Heck
man was born near Cassella, August
p, 1910, and was the eldest of nine
children, and under the then prevail
ing circumstances was trained to a
rigid manner of living that has made
her healthful all her life. As a result
of this union there were four children
-four sons and two daughters, and
eighteen grandchildren.
Mrs. Rosina Dabbelt, sister Of Mrs.
Hickman, and Bernard Schloman, of
Zenz City, were witnesses to their mar
riage, but owing to ill-health the latter
could not be present at Sundays cele-
bration.
Among the beautiful and valuable
presents received by the highly es-
teemed couple was gold mantel clocks,
and parlor lamps, silver cut
lery, cut glass, chinaware in abund
ance and many other articles.
All present enjoyed themselves i'm
mensely, and all joined in wishing Mr..
and Mrs. Hickman many more years
of good health, peace and prosperity.
In return the venerable couple wish to
thank their reverend pastor for his
words of cheer and encouragement and
the kind admOnition to their children:
also to the kind neighbors who so will
lngly assisted them in preparing re-
freshments for their guests on this
occasion.
