NV i. Jones, Garden Tracts)

Il has been said that if the Pill
-, fathers had landed on the Pa
e. Coast, New England would
have been desert today There i, is
lot Of truth in it, too. But could
.he people, who now inhabit those
.,me New England States, see Ken
0ewiek today they would all want
- come here. If they could gaze
- the orchards in the Garden
rracts right now, they would be
dalv too glad to say goodbye to
their old New England homes and
| come here and live. The orchards
40 all in bloom and the fragrance
emanating from these sweetly bloom
inc flowers reach from Kennewick
= heaven and back; and that is a
mod criterion of what the fruit crop
i going to be this season.
The peach crop will be immense,
rrovided of course, there are no
severe frosts later on.
| The hay crop will be an enormous
one with no chance of failure. In
fact, the prospects for bounteous
crop of everything could not pos
dbly be better, at this time.
However, we do not want to get
to feeling so sure Of a crop that we
become negligent in protecting it
from the frosts. Every citizen,
whether he owns an orchard or not,
ought to appoint himself commit
tee Of one, to assist in 'smudging"
every time it is necessary. What
helps one helps all. The people of
Kennewick should work as a unit,
in everything that tends to work a
benefit to the city.
Another point-They should be
prepared to meet newcomers. At
present there is no place for the
newly arrived man or family to ap-
ply for information concerning
houses or rooms. The other day a
man stopped the writer on the street
and asked him if he knew of any
one wanting to rent a house; said
he had a house to rent but did not
know how to find a renter.
We should be up-to-date and use
the local newspapers in such mat
tiers. Their charges are small and
besides what you do to help your
home papers helps you more than
you can imagine. The local papers
)of the city do more for the advance
ment of the city than the help she
gets from all other sources COM
bined.
What other business institution
gives as much free advertisement
and work for the benefit of the city
as the local newspapers? Not one.
L the city needs anything, who tells
OF that need and keeps it before the
public until that need is supplied?
The local papers, and there is not a
cent In it for them. They are help
ing every property owner, and en-
nllanclng the value of his property
me whole time, and yet, some peo-
PIE resort to the cheapest kind of
advertisement in preference to CIV
ing a little aid to their local papers
which are giving them aid twelve
months in the year.

EDISON'S LIFE AMBITION.

The great life ambition of Edison
is to create things that are CONNER

people the benefit of his work. He
takes great pride in the monograph.
which has delighted millions in all
parts of the world. In the archives
OF the patent office the records of
his inventionsrepresent shining chap
tiers of governmental department his
tory. The many legal contests that
have been necessary to maintain his
rights have cost more than two mil
lion dollars, and of themselves form
thrilling story. He insists upon
his rights from start to finish, but IS
free from petty jealOusies. No one
is keener to accord credit to Other
inventors. He freely gives Marconi
the full credit of the wireless, al
though he had conducted experiments
and taken out a patent many years
before on wireless telegraphy that
might have been followed to a sue
cessful conclusion along this line;

GOING TO TUCSON
WITH CONFIDENCE
Baseball Excursion of The Fords
August 20.

The Fords have arranged for an ex-
cursion to Tucson. Sunday August 20,
for the third meeting with the Bran
mems of that city on the baseball field
to decide the question of the cham
pionship as between the two aggre-
cations.
The Fords will set out with more
confidence than ever cncumbered a
baseball team travelling from Phoenix
to Tucson for it is matter of official
record that every time baseball clubs
of the two towns have met, Phoenix
has been accorded second money
every time but once and that was the
last time. What has been done once
can be done again and once the ice
is broken it is easy To get into the
water
Lefty" Burnett the fourteen year
old mascot will also be along and
that will be regarded by the Fords
as harbinger of victory. II is true
that he was along when the Fords
went to Tucson once before and re-
turned scalpless but that misfortune
was attributed to the fact that the
mascot instead of attending to bust
ness decorated himself with a pair of
silk stockings and thus invited defeat

GYPSUM COMPANY BEGINS
CONSTRUCTION OF PLANT
Will Have Daily Capacity of Forty
Tons.-It's Products Valuable.

paratory TO beginning active opera =
tons on the site of their new factory.
the Arizona Gypsum and Plaster COM
pany Yesterday commenced construc-
ton of plant on their ground five
miles east Of Phoenix on the Tempe
road, close to the Cross cut canal
The capacity of the plant will be
about forty tons per day and will
include gypsum building blocks. plas-
ter, and land plaster. The placing of
Il land plaster on the local market at
cheap rates will be helpful to the
farmers. 1t has been demonstrated in
California that great crop gains are
secured following the use Of gypsum
land plaster and for certain type of
soil that are hard To handle il is the
one thing that makes the land both
productive and easy of tillage
The use OF gypsum building blocks
Is growing in favor. it is being used
extensively on the new Hotel Adams
and is used because of its non-con-
ductive properties. 1t is a non-con-
ductor of heat, cold and electricity.
The advantage Of having local
source of supply for gypsum building
blocks will give much encoura cement
To the use Of this building material
which can be had made up in form
to suit the builders or the preference
of any party wishing to construct any
particular type of structure The Of
ficers Of the Arizona Gypsum Com
pany are, d. y. Mclean. President and
