,efore being allowed shipment. T

before being allowed shipment. The
packages must show quantity, name
of variety, name of grower, firm pack
ing, and some other information. In
spectors all over the county look after
the work. Inspectors are appointed
by the county commissioner Of horti-
culture, who supervises this inspec-
ton. So much for the care to ship
quality.
The crates used are the same size
used there but they contain % pounds
of grapes. The crate is double strip
ped in order to hold the grapes and
leave the grapes when opened in good
and attractive condition. inquired
of one grower, why instead of double
stripping he did not use deeper
crate. He replied that when remov-
ing the top, the strips, being put on
with single nails, all the strips came
off with the top and left the grapes
sticking up over the edges-full bas-
kets- and consequently finer appear
ing crates.
I had one or two growers make
some estimates for me. The result
is about as follows:
Tokays cost the grower on the vine
about $6 per ton. He can come out
even at about 81 to $3.50 per ton and
live on $40 per ton. Market price
runs for culls, about $500 per ton,
and for strippings (what is left on
the vines at the end Of the season,
after all the market grapes have been
picked) about $3.50 per ton. Strip
pings and culls will run about 25
per cent of the crop. The marketable
grapes bring different prices wher
sold on the ground. Sometimes they
sell at SO, SO or $40 per ton, field run
picked in lugs or boxes. When sole
and delivered to the packing houses
here, of which there are large mum
ber and whihh handle large quan
titles of the crop, the prices rang'
from $40 to SIS per ton.
A l have obtained these figures b!
talking with number Of growers
The crop is not yet ripe, but there il
a fair crop on the vines. The yiel'
per acre averages from 4 to 5 ton
of Tokays. Many vineyards do bet
ter-some much better.
The wine grapes are picked an
handled differently, but as we hav
no wine industry there, there will no
be much in it to interest our people
But if we do anything in that coun
: try, we must work for quality. w
! can get it there. We have the Ian
{ and the climate for it. That wit
4 quantity will give us monopoly Q
3 our home markets, which is all we WI
require for a long time.

,,,vsment to Bring About Or
' dsrlv Fruit Marketing seems
Well Under Way
PLAN RECEIVES AID
OF FEDERAL BUREAU
So. Hundred Growers and Shippers
p,.doe Support to Movement
at Enthusiastic Meeting

Srhe Growers Council movement is
,ov an assured thing" said Manager
r..vford Of the Fruit Exchange to-
d.v "The big meeting at Yakima on
c.turdav clinched the deal and now
m ve are waiting for are the neces-
..rv blanks and instructions from
hsadouarters. I had conversation
racently with Mr.. Grant, the Richey
4 Gilbert representative at Toppen-
;eh and he said there was not dis
..ntine voice among the 800 growers
and shippers present at Saturdays
meeting at North Yakima"
Regarding this meeting and the ar
ranrements there made, Mondays
Yakima Republic had the following to
say:
W. H. Paulhamus returned to Puy-
allup. Saturday evening, well pleased
With the result Of three meetings held
in the valley that day, and fully sat
isfied that the growers are ready to
back him up in his plans for orderly
marketing Of the peaches and pears.
And he said at the meetings that If
the plans worked out satisfactorily
there would be no difficulty in ex-
tending the same system to the mar
keting Of the apples.
H.F. Davidson, Of Hood River, was
also satisfied that the growers and
shippers wanted him to give them
what assistance he could. He re-
mained over until last night, and be-
fore leaving for home said he would
return here early next week to remain
: At least until the peach marketing
season was well under way. Wheth-
er he remains longer will depend upon
the necessities here and arrangements
which he must make for the care OF
his own business and that of the Hood
River Apple Growers union of which
he is the head.
Federal Agent Coming
The federal marketing bureau agent
Mr.. Schlosserman, is expected tt
reach North Yakima late in the weel
and Mr.. Paulhamus will come ovel
for day or two after both Mr.
Schlosserman and Mr.. Davidson arr
on the ground to give them any as
sistance that they may need.
The North Pacific Fruit Distribu
tors, at the meeting of its executive
committee today, is expected to ratif,,
the agreement with the Growers
. Council, which the other shipper
signed June 80. Mr.. Paulhamus hope
to hear from the Northwestern Frui
Exchange and several other shipper
within few days, and about the en-
OF the week will prepare in circula
form the first list Of shipping agent
which the executive committee of tn
Growers approves. This list will b
revised from time to time as ne'
ones are added or reports to the CON
mittee indicate that some approve
agency is not acting with fairness t
the growers.
Growers are Unanimous
AT zillah, Donald, Wapato and hel
saturday evening the growers, t
unanimous vote pledged themselv'
70 stand by the council and to mark
none OF their fruit contrary to the a
wee OF the councils representatives

DISTRIBUTE STOVES FROM HERE

The advantages of Kennewick as
a jobbing point for eastern Washing

fellows who are a distinct contrast to
the Mazbis, who are short, rather in
clined to be stout, and have very dark
skin and irregular features.
All the clans, however, are noted
for their great powers of endurance,
fighting qualities and skill in handling
a gun and bayonet. Indeed. it has
often been said by military experts
that there is no more cool and efec-
tive soldier in the world than the Sikh.

Novel Means of Communication.

Wounded British soldiers in the
hands of the Germans have hit upon a
novel way of communicating with their
families and friends at home. They
subscribe small sums of money to the
German Red Cross society, but as few
of them have any cash they fill up a
draft or sign a check to be sent to
London and honored On the back of
the draft the banker is requested to
communicate the news of the drawers
safety to his home Tommy Atkins
thinks it is well worth a dollar sub
scription.

So cold-blooded and invincible, in
deed, are they in bayonet charge
that it frightens even the most fear
less fighters, who lose their nerve
when confronted by the merciless
steel in the hands Of these dauntless
and determined Indian troops.
The Sikhs make equally good caval-
ry and infantry men. In pioneer work
that is to say, in clearing forests,
cutting roads, making bridges, sinking
wells to provide water for the army,
laying and neutralizfng mines, etc.,
they cannot be beaten.
