1t is something to learn that a

the best way to cure the trust evil.

To cross breed back and forth with

folly.

YAkIMA'S FESTIVAL

Chief among the April events of
the Yakima Valley is the Blossom
Festival which will be held at North
Yakima shortly after the middle of
this month. This year the scope of
the fete is to be extended to include
every city and town in the valley
and Kennewick as we'll as all the
other cities of the valley is interested.
The event promises to gain in pop
ularity every year until such times
as the affair will be put on an equal
basis with all great carnivals of the
country; at least, that is the aim of
the committee in charge and an or
ganized effort will be made shortly
to interest every city in this section.
The committee from North Yaki-
ma will call upon the business in
terests of Kennewick in the not
distant future and present an evenly
balanced program, the intention be-
ing to have every city of the valley
represented at the big event. H.
Definite dates for the carnival will
be announced as soon as the COM
mittee can. ascertain the week in
which the fruit trees will be in full
bloom. Festivities will probably
cover a period of three days.
No straw will be left unturned, it
is said, to make this festive period
one of which the people of the valley
will be proud. Visitors from every
section Of the Northwest will attend
and those interested are DESTROYS of
having them carry away an enlivened
opinion of the spirit of progress that
the interests of this section have.
A wealthy display of fruit bios
SONS will form the background of
the spectacle and entertainment such
as automobile rides through the fruit
sections, car rides, dances speeches,
parades, music, etc., will be pro-
vided. The aim is to give program
in which everyone will find an in
terest.

Columbus. - Convicts in the Ohio
penitentiary will be making cotton
yarn and turning out all sorts of cot
ton fabrics by early fall, according to
members of the state board of admin
istration, who have discussed the
subject informally and who shortly
will contract for $4,000 worth of ma
chinery. Existing structures will be
utilized and sufficient power is at
hand. A few motors, however, may
be needed.
This determination is the result of
a visit paid to New York prisons by
T. E. Davey and DR.. A. F. Shepherd of
the board. They went in response to
an invitation of T. H. Mills, state
agent for prison-made goods in New
York. Sing Sing and Dannemora
were visited. At each, cotton cloths
of a coarse variety are manufactured
At Dannemora the yarn is made from
the raw cotton and this will be the
scheme followed here.
1t is estimated that this will give
employment to $50 men at once and
the number may be increased without
much trouble.
