but gather from what is said that
organization is wanted. better discip-
line among both volunteer and paid
departments so every man would
know what he was expected to do
at fire instead of every man trying
to do what every other man is doing.
The men should have their stations
and duties and one of the best ways
of securing this Is to have a sort of
half pay or reserve system by which
men working at fires are compensat-
ed for their services. One great me-
[ cessity is some form of fire alarm,
as the present means of communicate
| ing an alarm by mine whistles is
misleading and often does more harm
than good. A cheap and effective
telephone alarm system could be es-
tablished by which any one discov-
ering a fire could notify central of
the district where the fire is and, by
use of commutated wheel signal.
central could send out the alarm to
be sounded automatically with one
whistle with distinctive note which
would be recognized at once as a
fire alarm. This whistle would blow
ia number signifying the district
: where the fire is and thus save valu

at certain corners under certain re
strictions for communicating with ths

of Tonopah to do as they please"

Chief Object Will be to Study
Road Conditions and Work
for improvements
E. M. SLY is CHOSEN
TEMPORARY PRESIDENT
Main Roads will be Placarded and
Set of Rules to Govern Travel
Will be Adopted

Believing that there is need
of some kind of a good roads or,
ganization in this end of the
county, automobile owners of
Kennewick and the surrounding
territory have launched plans
for such an organization to be
known as the Kennewick Auto
club. Preliminary organization
was effected at a meeting Satur-
day afternoon when E. M. Sly
was chosen temporary president
and d. M. Williams temporary
secretary. The next meeting will
be held Saturday, October 81, at
which time a constitution and
bylaws will be adopted and the
organization o IN erwis per-
fected.
One of the first works of the
club will be to place sign posts
along the main thoroughfares
for the direction of tourists and
to adopt road rules for the guild
ance of drivers of automobiles
and horse vehicles. Although
no serious accidents have hap
pened, there have been numerous
close calls because of no definite
understanding between auto
drivers and teamsters. AS the
number of automobiles and traf-
fic on the main roads increase,
there becomes grave danger of
accidents. By the adoption of a
simple set of road rules the new
club hopes to forestall any bad
smash-ups.
The club intends to make a
study of the road needs in this
district and hopes to cooperate
with the county commissioners
in securing improvements where
needs Justify the expense. AS
planned, membership in the or
ganization will not be limited to
owners of automobiles but will
be open to anyone who is inter-
ested in good roads and wishes
to work with the club.

MUST STOP
SAYS THE COUNCIL
City Fathers Have Tried Ad-
monitions and Now They will
Use More Drastic Measures

Finding that mere admonition
fails to penetrate the cuticle of
some people, the city council has
decided to employ more drastic
measures with the auto driver
who thinks the city streets were
built for speedways. Some time
ago the council gave warning
that the speed ordinance must
be complied with. The warning
has not been needed.
At the meeting of the council
Tuesday evening several men,
bers. said they had received nu-
merous complaints ag ain s t
speeding from people, who for
the sake of neighborhood har-
mony, did not wish to lodge for
NAL complaint a gainst tn e
speeders. AS a result the coun-
Gil ordered the city marshal to
take the initiative and not wait
for complaints to be filed. He
has orders to arrest all auto
drivers who continue to violate
the ordinance after they have
been verbally warned to slow
down.

VAN HOLDERBEKE
DEFENDS THE APPLE
Well Known Nurseryman Says
Growers of Northwest have
Cinch on the Apple Business

Hog and corn talk brought a
strenuous defense of the apple
from Prof. A. Van Holderbeke
who was a guest at the Com
mercial club luncheon, Wednes-
day. The professor declared
there was no occasion to be
alarmed over the apple situation.
The northwest is demonstrating
that it can beat the world in the
production of fancy apples and
as long as it can beat the world
it will have the world for its
market.
He insisted that there is not
now and never will be an over
production of the kind of apples
grown in the orchards of the
Northwest. He attributed the
failing markets of the last few
years to general business de-
preston and lessened buying
power and predicted a return of
good prices with the return of
normal conditions. He main
tanned that with but one crop in
every three years and apples at
$1.00 box an apple orchard will
pay bigger dividends than any
hog ranch.
Don't dig out your apple
trees" he said. ''Let the other
fellow who can't grow as good
apples as you can, do the dig
ging. The northwest apple is
rapidly forging to the front in
every market it enters. / have
brothers in Europe engaged in
apple growing. For years they
had what was apparently a nev-
er-failing market for their en-
tire crop in London. A few years
ago they wrote me that they
were grating all their winter
apple trees to summer varieties.
Why? Because as soon as the
Northwest apple entered the
European markets the only
time they could find a sale for
theirs was in August and July
when ours were out of the mar
ket. / tell you the northwest
has cinch on the apple business
of the world. Let's stick to it."
Prof. Van Hoderbeke said he
recently received a request from
a prominent real estate man of
Colorado, for samples of the six
leading varieties of commercial
apples grown in the northwest.
The writer explained that he
wanted the apples to prove to
the people of his section that
they were wasting time and
money in planting apple or
chards as they could never hope
to compete with the growers of
the northwest.
