FIRE In THE HUDNALL YARDS
Quick Work Of Fire Department Prevents Serious
Loss to Local Lumber Company

Prompt and efficient service on
the part of the fire department
last Monday afternoon prevented
a damaging conf1agration at the
yards of the Hudnall Lumber
company. Fire, which started
in a pile of posts, spread rapidly
to an adjoining cement and plas-
ter shed and the entire roof was
enveloped in flames by the time
the department arrived. Three
streams of water were soon play
ing on the fire which was extin-
guished with a loss of about $400
to the company. The principal
damage was to the cement from
water. It is thought that the
fire originated from engine
sparks from a passing N. P. train.

INTERESTED
IN GRAPE CARNIVAL
Growers Are Making Numerous In
quiries About This Years Exhi-
bits Start Funds Monday

That the farmers are taking
more interest in the preparation
Of exhibits. for the Grape carni-
val than ever before, is the opin-
ion of those who are conversant
with the situation. j. o. Short
reports that his proposition of in
augurating a Horse Heaven de-
partment at the carnival has hit
the spot with the wheat ranchers
and they are promising hearty
cooperation. Not only are they
planning exhibits of wheat, but
they promise to bring in corn, po-
tatoes and a variety of other
crops grown without irrigation.
In fact they have already started
to assemble the exhibit. Carl
Williams brought in Tuesday two
stools Of wheat. In one stool there
are 157 heads and 112 in the other.
The wheat is of the Jones' Fife
variety and was selected from the
field where the crop is heaviest.
County Agriculturalist Lee M.
Lampson states that the farmers
are showing much more interest,"
than last year. Il received from
one to a dozen inquiries about
the carnival every week." said
Mr., Lamps at the Commercial
club lun "a Wednesday.
The cUiAmittee in charge of
raising funds promise that the
question of whether there is to be
a carnival is to be decided very
soon. Next Monday morning
bright and early they intend to
invade the business district with
a subscription list. All business
men are requested to be ready.

LOWER WHEAT RATE I
HELPS THE FARMER
Price in Coast Markets Will Be
Same This Year as in Chicago
Northwest Gets Benefit

For the first time wheat prices
are as high in Portland this sum
mer as in Chicago, says the Ore
gon Journal. Quotations on new
crop are exactly the same, which
means that the grower Of the
Pacific northwest gets more for
his wheat in comparison to the
world market, than ever before,
by some eight or ten cents a bu.
shel.
The higher prices prevailing in
Portland, grain men attribute to
lower freight rates, ship owners
being willing to accept about ten
shillings or about $3.50 per ton
less for hauling the grain to
Europe than they did at the COR
responding time last year.
The general belief is that in
directly this reduction has been
brought about by the near COM
pletion of the Panama canal and
the fact that the waterway may
be open in time for at least some
of the steamer cargoes to take
advantage of the new route, but
exporters are not inclined to this
view.
The Pacific northwest states,
Oregon, Washington and Idaho,
will harvest this summer between
65. 600, 600 and 80, 600, 600 bushels.
This at an increase of 10 cents
per bushel will mean that the Pa
cific northwest wheat growers
will draw from Sc. 500, 600 to $8,-
600, 900 more than they would,
were the usual differential in ef-
feet, or more than So each to
every man, woman and child in
the three states.

City Interests Committee of Com
mercial Club is Asked to In
vestigate and Report
At NEXT WEEKLY LUNCHEON
Question Often Before Public Comes up Again
Nc Definite Plans For Funds Have Been
Worked Ost as Yet

In spring young mans fancy
lightly turns to thoughts Of love, ;,
or words to that effect. When
the sun travels high and the mer-
curry runs wild, when collars wilt
and sage brush curls, the Kennes
wick citizens fancy longingly
turns to thoughts of a cool re-
treat where birds sing and the
river breezes blow. So comes
again Kennewick's city park. 4
The park question has been uu
and down and up and down. I'll
has been vetoed. tabled, pigeons
holed, buffeted and hammered
but like all good men and some
bathing skirts, it won't stay
down. Unexpectedly and sud-
like it came up at the CONNER
cial club luncheon yesterday, and
is now in the hands of the city
interests committee who have or
ders to investigate and report at
next Wednesdays luncheon.
The last park effort was di-
rected at the city council but met
defeat when it was discovered
that the state Of Washington had
failed to give cities of the third
class authority to go in debt for
parks.
Yesterdays discussion revealed
the fact that there is strong
sentiment for the park. DIR. F.
M. Crosby, who brought the mat
ter before the club, went on re-
cord as favoring a park even at
the expense of passing up the
Grape Carnival this year. E. M.
Sly, whose motion placed the
question in the hands of the COM
mittee, said Kennewick was the
only town he knew of that had
made no provisions for a park.
Even the little town of RICH
land is far ahead of us in this re-
spect," !" he said.
AS yet no definite program for
raising funds for the purchase of
a site, should a suitable one be
agreed upon, has been outlined.
The work of the city interests
committee is to obtain prices on
tracts of lands. The committee
has already been busy along this
line and it is probable that they
will be able to submit very sat
isfactory report next Wednesday.
The committee is composed of G.
CARRIER, j. M. Holmes and ]. J..
Rudkin.

Startling Reductions Made in Pres
ent Charges on Canned Goods
and Dried Fruits
SAVING OF 5000 ON CARLOAD
Equally Great Cats Expected On Fresh Fruits
Give New lspetls to Industry Throughout
ths Nssthwsst

Within two days after the first
loaded steamer entered the Pana-
ma canal, word was received by
the Fruit Growers Transporta-
tion league Of the first great bene-
fit which the fruit industry is to
receive through the canals oper-
alton. For the first time in Pan
anna canal history definite infor-
nation is now given to the grow
ers of the Northwest, and while
it covers only dried fruits and
canned goods, the saving in
freight rates is so tremendous as
to point the way to the equally
great advantages that all branch
es in fruit growing are certain to
get.
The reductions in dried fruit
rates are startling. AS compar-
ed with the present rate of 100
cents per hundred weight from
Seattle and Portland to New York
City, the direct water rate
through Panama will be 81 l-2
cents, and with dock charges,
lighterage and marine insurance,
the local rate between the ports
will not exceed 40 cents per 100
pounds. Adding the local rates
to Seattle and Portland the dried
fruit shippers of Washington and
Oregon, will save on the whole,
not less than $16O on every car
handled by water. With real
steamboat competition on the Co
hmbia and Willamette rivers, the
total saving to shippers in these
valleys will run close to $500 a
car.
Under the influence of these low
rates. it is predicted, that the
canning and by-products indus
tries will Immediately commence
to grow into enormous proper
tions, For years the crying need
of the grower has been for relief
in some way as would enable him
to utilize his small fruits and by
products on a basis that would as
sure profit, and the Panama canal
more than fulfills his fondes s t
hopes.

ANOTHER DRY FARM GRAIN. DOES WELL IN VALLEY
Feterita Grows With Less Water Than
 Others of Its Kind

w. $. ,Humbert of the Arizona Seed company has been experimenting very successfully with new grain that ap- pears to him to be available especially for this section of the great southwest. It is known as feterita, and has been successfully grown under dry farming conditions ir Oklahoma It combines the qualities of both grain and fodder to very marked degree
 The plant belongs to the sorghum family and the Seed is very like white milo and Egyptian corn, and somewhat similar to challu, but the kernel is rounder than that of either of these grain foods.
 It is very prolific producer, as many as ten stalks coming up from the one seed every one of them bearing a good sized head of grain, while the stalk is a very succulent food for stock, being edible right down to the ground not merely the leaf but the stalk as well.
 There is on exhibit a stalk in the office of the company on North Center street which is a splendid specimen of the plant. It was grown on the Hum bert place and shows just what can be done. MT Humbert grew the grain under dry farming conditions and found that it thrived on less water and grew better than any of the other sorghum varieties of grain.

Marshal Browning Gets Motorcycle for Motor Cop Work; Engineer

Tempe's council held a special ses- sion Saturday night. disposing of a quantity of important business which has arisen since the regular meeting couple of weeks ago Chief among the items up for attention was the sewer bonds which were recently turned down by prospective pur- chasing Denver firm. Engineer Knipe also came in for his share of atten- ton; this time receiving a contract for the surveying and monumenting of several districts within the city limits. And the marshal is going to have motorcycle. That point is not to be overlooked, for once the peace officer is accustomed to his new vehicle, he is going to do a lit- tie motor cop work on the side. Such an idea has been figured on for weeks but not until the order was issued Saturday night instructing the pur- chase of machine for M c.

POSTPONE PRINCES TRIP
William May Secure Funds and Per
 mission Next Year
ASSOCIATED PRESS p1sPArcH1

BERLIN. July 19.-Crown Prince Williams trip through the German colonies, which he desired to make this year, but to which the emperor refused to consent, may be made in 1915. Ac- cording to a usually well informed source, the consent of the emperor has been gained, and all that now remains to be done is to induce the Reichstag to appropriate s45,OOO for expenses This. however, is likely to prove a ser ious obstacle.
 When the subject was mooted during the last session of the parliament it encountered so much opposition that the emperor's decision to refuse to per init the crown prince to make the trip was in part ascribed to the attitude of the reichstag. Other reasons for the emperor's refusal are understood to have been his wish that the crown prince should first do some real work with the general staff. and his convic- tion that proper precautions to protect the personal welfare of the future ruler had not been taken. The latter objec- tion, it is reported. has been removed and the other will have been removed by next spring.
