comedy, dramatized from Harold

DEMAND FOR GOOD
APPLES WILL Be BRISK
Editor of Fruit Grower Advises Grow
ers Not to Hurry in DispOsink
of Crop

Apple growers in California, Ore
gon, Washington, Idaho. Montana,
Colorado and other western states
need have no fears that first-class
orchard products will go begging
this season, according to E. H.
Favor, associate editor of the Fruit
Grower of St. Joseph, Mo-, who
says in communication to the
management of the fourth National
Apple Show in Spokane that it is
now appearant the crop Of the United
States will not exceed that of last
year, when it is estimated the yield
amounted to 100000 barrels.
Continuing, Mr.. Favor says in part:
Those who have crop of apples,
especially if they are free from
blemishes and worms. need have no
fear that they cannot be disposed
of, no matter what the fruit buyer
may say just now.
1t is always the buyers purpose
to pronounce the crop the largest
and finest ever known. 1t helps
beat down the price.
In some localities, (eastern) un-
sprayed fruit has in some manner
escaped serious damage by insects
and is fairly good, but as whole
the worms have consumed the bulk
of unsprayed apples so that they
will be unfit for storage.
''The bulk of the space in eastern
storage houses has not been con-
tracted for, and very few apples
have gone into storage yet. The
amount of storage still available is
a good indication of the amount OF
fruit that will be harvested, and it
will certainly pay a good profit to
hold all apples that are in any way
of good quality"
Heads of commission houses in
eastern and middle western cities
have been sending out statements
during the last 60 days, urging the
growers to sell their apples, intimat-
ing that the crop of 1911 would be
the largest in Is years; but reports
to the Fruit-Grower show that the
crop will not even equal the 1911

TAKES
FIRST FOOTBALL GAME
A Score of IS to O Marks the Beginning
of the Pigskin Season. Walla
Walla Next

The score alone tells the story of
the first football game of the season
on the home grounds. Officials had
it: Kennewick, 65; Lind, 0.
The game was really too easy
for the local boys, and the score
could have been doubled. The
Kennewick boys had things all their
own way from the first whistle to
the end, outplaying and out weigh
ing the plucky little team from up
the line.
Being the first team organized in
Lind, and being their first game,
the visitors didn't expect to make
much of showing. They were
quick to catch the main points, how
ever, and with a few more games,
will put up a very different account
of themselves.
After the first half, the home
team realized that they had the
game cinched, and played almost
entirely their new delayed passes,
forward passes and the new style Of
game entirely. The practice on this
style was needed and they had a
chance TO see just how to put them
to work in real game.
One of the features of the game
was an eighty-yard run by Mauk,
which resulted in a touch down.
Boone made a good showing of his
ability to boot the ball and his stiff
arm treatment of tacklers taught
the visitors to play low, at least.
The team will 60 to Walla Walla
to take on the high school aggrega-
ton from that place. They are not
quite so confident of the results
there, although the Wenatchee team
ran up a score of something in the
neighborhood of eighty week ago.

MAYOR BIER VISITS
THE GARDEN CITY
Head of City on Reception Commit
tee to President Tcft in
WaIIa Walla

Mayor Bier accepted the invita-
ton extended by the city of Walla
Walla to sit on the platform and
greet President Taft, on his recent
visit to that city, last Saturday.
He was there-and the town officials
of the Garden City were we'll aware
of the fact. Mayor Bier says that
the treatment accorded visiting
officials is the only redeeming fea-
ture in being Mayor Of a town
where the official pay envelope con-
tains blanks.
After sitting on the platform with
the big President of these here
United States, all decorated up with
nice pink badge, Mayor Bier, OF
Kennewick, was the guest of the
Mayor and Commissioners of the
city of Walla. The commission
form of city government was care
fully explained in all its details,
and while the plan has only been
in operation in that city for month
or so, the officials seem to think
that the new form will work out to
the best satisfaction of everyone
concerned.
Mr.. Bier was especially interested
in the fire apparatus of the city and
so was taken to the fire chiefs office.
There all the different machines for
fire fighting were gone over and a
demonstra ton was made on the
street for his particular benefit. In
the evening, to show the workings
of the big fire siren whistle, it was
blown and the new eighty horse
power hook and ladder, fire engine
and chemical was taken for run
through the crowded streets, the
mayor hanging on top for dear life.
By the way, the mayor has some
good ideas on running the city's
affairs under the new plan of gov
eminent, and We hope to be able to
print them in these columns in the
near future. Right now; he feels a,
bit diffident about expressing them.

Pasco, WASH, Oct. 2, 1911.
Editors Pasco Express:
Your local item in last weeks
issue mentioning the printing done
in Pasco for the Kennewick Grape
Carnival is deserving the attention
Of the progressive and hustling citi-
zens Of the Twin Cities" as an in
dication of the spirit which should
actuate every one Of US. Pasco and
Kennewick will some day be one
large city. A local rivalry is neces-
ary as a stimulant to the growth
Of both, but there should be no
animosity. What helps one city
will help the other. The Kenne-
wick Grape Carnival" was a won
derful success and surprise to the
most sanguine. It established the
tact that our Columbia river valley
is the Rhine of America and the
natural home of the grape. The
organization of the Columbia Valley
Grape Carnival should be perpetual,
with permanent headquarters at
kennewick, and if every locality
from Priest Rapids to Whitcomb
on the North Bank Road" on both
sides OF the river will use their best
efforts to make it national success,
II will be done. Wien we realize
mat We have 1870 miles of land on
each side of the Columbia river that
even now is not surpassed in the
production of grapes, cantaloupes,
melons, and other delicate fruits
and vegetables, we will realize that
our grape carnival will soon rival
@e apple show of Spokane. The
'eai'tles that should directly in
erest themselves in our grape car
li'al are, on the left bank of the
