Mrs. NJ. NJ. Ross of Coolidge, and
Mrs. May Arkwright Hutton and
Mrs. M. J. Vessels of Spokane,
were in Pasco last week endeavor-

and ii. W. Desgranges of this place
were In conference with the ladies
and it is expected that action will
pe taken at the next meeting of the
Commercial Climb to see that Kenne-
wick exhibits have place on the
car.
In speaking of the purpose of the
woman's exhibit car, Mrs. Ross
said: I'VE are going to be frank
and inform the women in the east
that 1t will take between $1,000 and
eiooo to start things right in this
country. The great trouble with
many immigrants has been that
'hey have not had the capital to
get along on until their land was in
crop bearing condition. It will at
least take this amount of money to
enable families to get started on a
''e'acre tract. The women are the
ones who really do not know the
advantages and disadvantages, if
'uere are any, of the great north

TO HAVE THE CITY CLEANED

The city is still without an official
superintendent of garbage, and the
city fathers see the necessity of hav-
ing such an officer. AS chairman
of the health committee of the city
council, Mr.. CARRIER was authorized
to come to terms and close with
some man to act in that capacity
for the coming year. It is thought
that the offer made by VIM. Morain,
who also owns the street sprinkling
outfit, will be accepted.

WANT WATER IN PIPES

A petition was presented Tuesday
night to the council to have an ir-
rigation improvement distric t
formed in the Anon addition. The
petition asks for system of piping
for the irrigation water similar to
the system granted to the residents
in the Beach addition. The council
was favorable to the request and
every effort will be made to have
the pipes installed before the irriga-
ton season opens.
