WATERING THE LAWN.
A Task That, as a General Rule, 10 Not
Properly Performed.

A Task That, as a General Rule, 10 Not
Properly Performed.
There are probably more mistakes
made in connection with the watering
Of the lawn than in any other phase OF
its management
The practice of sprinkling, as It is al
most universally followed, is funda-
mentally wrong-nOt that the sprinkler
does not furnish enough water to the
grass during the season, but that it
does not furnish it I'm properly dlstrtb-
uted quantities.
Sprinkling for a short period may ap-
pear to wet the sod thoroughly, but in
reality the water does not penetrate
much below the surface. This encoUr-
ages the formation Of surface roots
and makes the grass less resistant to
the severe conditions of weather and
usage.
Except in rare cases the lawn should
not be watered Oftener than two or
three times a week. A thorough soak
ing is necessary and should be given In
the late afternoon or early morning.
The ordinary type Of revolving spray
is quite satisfactory, but the amount Of
water applied by 1t is usually much
less than appears.
The point to be borne In mind is that
the ground should be thoroughly satu-
rated at each application to at least
three inches in depth.-Kansas City

SCHOOL IS OUT

The Richland schools slosed May 2,
after one of the most successful terms
in its history. The work done by the
pupils in the various grades under
their most able instructors has been
far above the average, while the num-
Der of graduates from the high school,
twelve in all, is sufficient guarantee
of spirit evinced by this community
toward higher education of its young
people. Most Of these graduates ex-
pect to continue their education in
some higher school of learning, and
we have no doubt that in the years
to come several Of them will be heard
from in some field of endeavor.

afforded in this state to any. indus

MOTHERS DAY WILL Be
APPROPRIATELY OBSERVED
Special Services in Honor of Mothers,
Living and Gone, will be Held
at the Methodist Church

Mothers Day will be observed Sun
day, May 9th, all over the English
speaking world. Special services will
be held at the Richland Methodist
church at IL a. m. Everyone is re-
quested to wear a white flower upon
that occasion.
It is hoped that every mother in
the community can be present. Spec
ial conveyances will be furnished to
any mother who has no way of get
ting to church, providing you let the
pastor know by Saturday morning.
! Everyone should help to make this
q great day. See if your neighbours
mother has way to get to church and
share your rig, if she hasn't.
A Mothers Day sermon will be
preached by the pastor. Special songs
will be sung in honor of the mothers.
Every young man and young wo-
man should take advantage Of this
way to honor your mother, if she is
living, or honor her memory if she
has gone from you.

MAY DAY PROGRAM

The children of the second and third
grades Of the grammar school, under
the instruction of their teachers, Miss
Mildred Devin and Miss Zada Roe,
gave most delightful May Day pro-
gram in the park on Wednesday. The
songs, dances and calisthenics of the
little ones were all well rendered and
large crowd of parents and friends
spent the afternoon in the park de-
string to show the young ladies that
their untiring efforts toward higher
culture in our schools were thoroughly
appreciated.
Miss Devin is musical instructor for
the grammar grades and her work
among the little children along this
line has been little short of mar
velous, many little ones having de-
veloped good singing voices who pre-
viously had never been known to sing
note correctly.
Music is one of the things most
necessary in our schools, not only for
its educational value, but because it
brings out all the best there is in the
child and also gives him a chance to
vary the monotony of the usual school
work. 1t is to be hoped that this May
Day event will become a permanent
feature of the work in our grade de-
partment.

BACCALAUREATE
EXERCISES GIVEN
Graduating Class of Richland
High School Hears Sermon
nv Kennewick Pastor

Tho largest congregation ever gath
,.od IN a church in Richland filled the
Methodist church Sunday evening to
ha.r Rev. H. o. Perry preach the BAG
.olaureate sermon to the graduating
class of 1915, of the Richland high
school. Every seat in the main part
~ the church as well as the Sunday
school room was filled, while large
number of late Corners had to stand
up.
The high school chorus formed a
choir on this occasion and rendered
appropriate hymns in beautiful
manner, accompanied by their tall
ented instructor, Miss Ethel Smith.
The graduates were seated in the
front seats, which were decorated in
the class colors. The choir loft and
altar were decorated with asparagus
ferns and white snowballs, making a
beautiful appearance.
The sermon delivered by DR.. Perry
was most appropriate for the occa-
sion, he dwelling at length on the fact
that the young people were about to
take step through new door in life
and that their future lay with them
selves to make or mar and that no
matter what position in life they
might be called it was their duty to
fill it in the best manner of which
they were capable.
This class of 1915 is the largest ev-
er graduated from the local high
school and the people of Richland have
a right to feel proud that from their
midst have come such an able and
progressing body of young men and
women.

GIBBS GIVES MONEYS WORTH

The second moving picture show
given by c. s. Gibbs in the Randall
building last Friday evening was a
great success. A big crowd turned
out, and as all the pictures were of
the best and very clear, it is needless
70 say that they were appreciated by
AL A larger screen will soon be pur-
chased and then there will be moth
ing left to be desired to make Rich
iand have as good a little show as
can be found in town of like size
anywhere.
AS soon as things get to running
smoothly, Mr.. Gibbs expects to secure
some good three-act plays and will
put on at least one of these reels
every week. In the meantime he is
giving his public a good combination
oi instructive, comic and dramatic
INNS, so that no matter what your
taste may be in the line of the movies
you can be accommodated at our little
local picture theatre.

HIGHLAND SCORES IN
CELLO CELEBRATION
Local Floats Make Fine Showing
in Parade at PascO-Big
Crowd Accompanies

When the people of Richland make
up their minds to do thing you can
leave it to them to do it right, as has
again been proven by the fine showing
made by our little town at the Ce-
lilo celebration last Tuesday. Not
only were we represented by the larg-
est part of our population, but had
some of the finest floats in the pa
rade, especially appropriate being that
of the Horn Rapids Irrigation COM
pany, representing the hog industry
with its alfalfa raising adjunct.
Every car in town was requisition-
ed to take the crowds to the ferry at
Kennewick where they crossed to Pas
co for the parade. 1t is estimated that
close to 10000 people attended the
celebration in the two towns, the ma
jority of the pleasure seekers staying
until every attraction was pulled off.
Many people from Richland and the
other small towns took their lunches,
but the proprietors of the various ho-
tells in Kennewick and Pasco report
a rush such as has never been ex-
perienced in this section before.
Large delegations from Prosser,
Mabton, Hanford, White Bluffs and
other small towns were in attendance
with appropriate badges showing
their respective localities.
A beautiful day added to the pleas
ure of the event and May Fourth
1915 will go down in the history of
the Columbia river valley as one of
the red letter days in its progress
toward its highest development.
