Most Profitable OF Duck Family.
DIV anna GAILIaHER. ohiel

(By ANNA GALLIeHER, Ohie)
II is only comparatively few years
since the Indian Runner ducks made
their appearance In America. They
came originally from the West In
dies, where they have been raised for
years, chiefly as egg-producers. They
derive their name from their native
land and racy, upright carriage.
In color they are fawn and white,
with yellow shanks and light-green
bill; the latter being sometimes
splashed with black.
The body is long and narrow and
is carried in an almost upright post
tion. Neck is long and thin, with fine
ly formed head.
The Indian Runner is rather small.
fully matured ducks weighing from
four to five pounds. brakes from tive
to six pounds. live weight.
But they grow very rapidly while
young and are easy to raise. What
they lack in weight is more than made
up for In their other good qualities.
To begin with, they are very prolific
layers; beginning when about six
months old. Their eggs are pure
white and little larger than those
Of a Plymouth Rock hen.
They are superior in quality to any

Her husband passed away in April,
1910. In November, 1911, she
came to Kennewick and a pretty
little home was built under her di-
rection next door to the residence of
her brother. This was practically
completed at the time of her death.
She has another brother, E. O.
Gardner, residing at Wayne, Ne
braska.
In her will she left $500 to the

TO the Woman's Foreign Missionary
society of the same denomination,
and 500 to the Methodist Dea-
coness Children's Home, situated at

FROST WARNING
FOR THIS SPRING
lhe Courier will Handle Local
End of Government Frost
Forecasts
There is a possibility, even

There is possibility, even d
probability, that Kennewick will,
in the course of the coming year,
have a representative of the weather
bureau stationed here during the
months of frost danger. At present
there are five of these stations in
the Northwest, covering the Yak
ina, Wenatchee, Rogue River,
Hood River and Medford valleys.
During the danger months the gov
ernment weather experts give warn
ings on the dates of the frosts, and
the temperatures that will be
reached during the night. In this
way the ranchers are notified as to
the preparations needed for fruit
protection.
A. F. Beals, who has charge of
the forecasting service on the Pa
c cific Coast, with offices at Portland ,
was in Kennewick last Saturday,
and gave the above information.
While he was here he made a few
Improvements in the local station.
Arrangements are being made so
that Kennewick can receive the
frost warnings from the branch at
North Yakima, over the telephone,
to be distributed from here. The
Courier will handle these warnings,
and make the distributions by means
of the signals and during the criti-
cal times by phone. So far there
has been no official flag to indicate
killing frost, but during the spring
the white flag with black center,
will indicate dangerous frost.
1t is likely that the temperatures
can be predicted fairly close this
spring from North Yakima, as the
Portland office has been comparing
the temperature of North Yakima
and Kennewick with this in view
for the past several years. Farmers
who want to know all that the FORE
casters can tell will have that infor-
ma ton at the very earliest possible
moment, if they will leave their
names at The Courier office.

H. A. HOWE DISPOSES
OF BUSINESS HOLDINGS
Trades His Hardware and Furniture
Establishment for Residence Pro-
perty in Spokane

This week H. A. Howe trans
ferred his hardware, furniture and
undertaking establishment to G.. P.
Kjosness of Spokane, taking in ex-
change residence property in the
Falls City valued at approximately
$4,000.
Mr.. Howe will give possession
about the 10Th. A son and son-1n-
law of Mr.. Kjosness who are to
take active charge of the business,
are expected to arrive today and
assist in the work of invoicing
which will take a week or ten days.
The Howes came to Kennewick
in 1905 and in the period they
have been in business here have
built up a trade and acquired a
stock which is second to none in
this section. Last year saw the
completion of their splendid con-
crete building, which Mr.. Howe
will retain as he will also his other
property here.
Mr.. and Mrs. Howe will leave
shortly for visit at their old Da-
kota home and other points in the
east. After a few months we'll
earned rest and recreation they will
return to Kennewick and expect to
make this city their permanent
home.
During the years Of Mr.. Howe's
business activities in Kennewick he
has ever been numbered among the
live wires" of the Commercial Club
and was for a period president of
the Bank of Kennewick. During
the past year his health has not
been good and it is largely due to
this fact tnat be has decided for
time to retire from active business
and take life little easier.

POLICE FORCE
TAKES It EASY
Report for February is Blank SC
Far as the Justice Of the Peace
is Concerned

Being the first meeting in the
month, the city council heard the
reports from the various city de-
partments. Among them one from
Judge Staser's department stood
out prominently, owing to it's COM
plete lack of figures, reading some
thing like this: arrested, none;
fines collected, none; and (worst Of
alD, fees to police Judge, none. The
city bastile is empty; the city's
police force has had plenty of time
to get into fine trim. OF course,
the reason for the police judges
lack of fees is not due to the lack OF
diligence on the part of the force,
but rather to their eternal vigilence.
A renewal of the license for the
Lloyd & Thresher saloon was
granted, the petition being accom-
panied by the 81 900 check.
A petition from Amon's addition
for the grading of the streets and
the laying of cement sidewalks was
read and approved. The council
will form an improvement district
as soon as possible and have the
work done.
An improvement district Or
dinance covering an irrigation sys-
tenn for Menhinick' and part of
Beach's additions was given its
readings.
On motion, it was decided that
all the irrigation systems installed
by the city be Of cement pipe. The
motion also included a clause giving
the mayor and clerk the power to
enter into a contract with a respon-
sible firm for the supply and the
laying thereof.
Wednesday morning a special
meeting was called for the purpose
of investigating certain sidewalk
grades on Front street. It was de-
cided to raise the present level a
foot. The council will likely make
other changes in the grades in other
sections of town.
An adjourned meeting is called
for tonight to hear the remon-
strances on the district formed last
week for irrigation improvement in
the Anon addition, and to let the
contract.

DEATH CLAIMS MRS. PEASE

Death claimed Mrs. Addie c..
Pease, late Wednesday afternoon
after an illness of three months.
Mrs. Pease was a sister of L. C..
Gardner and has made her home
with them since she accompanied
them to this city from their old
home in Strawberry Point, Iowa,
last November. She developed
symptoms of illness while on the
journey and shortly after her arrival
was troubled with an attack of acute
erysipelas which developed into
uremic poisoning, to which death
was due. During the past two
weeks there has been little hope of
her recovery.
Mr.. and Mrs. Gardner will ac-
company the body back to Iowa
and expect to arrive there Monday
evening, the eleventh. The funeral
and burial will take place the fol-
lowing day. A short service will
be conducted at the residence this
afternoon at 3: Is O'Clock, by Rev.
C. D. Rarey of the Methodist
church, with Rev. w. P. Osgood,
pastor of the Baptist church, assist
ing.
Mrs. Pease was one of those true
hearted Christian women who made
everyone's woes her own and never
tired of helping others to bear their
burdens: A faithful worker in the
church, she lived and died in the
Christian faith and her loss is deep
ly mourned by her new friends
here, for her ministry on earth was
a blessing to all who came in con-
tact with her.
Addie C. Gardner was born on
March 29th, 1854, in Strawberry
Point, Iowa, where she was married
January 9Th, 1885, to A. J. Pease.
