NOW TIME TO THINK
ABOUT SPRAYING
Orchardists Should Begin Max
ing Plans for Spraying Says
Horticultural Inspector

"It is time the fruit growers were
beginning to study and decide on win
ter sprays and what kind they will
use," says horticultural Inspector
Luke Powell. "As soon as you have
made your decision it will be well to
place your orders, if you get them
thru your local men, in order that they
may ship in carload lots and thus re-
duce the freight as much as possible.
Oil Sprays
"For the older districts, such as
Prosser, this Office is going to recon-
mend the use Of oil spray for the San
Jose Scale this coming spring. l have
noticed for some time that we are not
controlling the San Jose Scale as we
should with lime-sulphur, and after
observing a test that Prof. Melander
carried out at Yakima this last sum-
mer, in which he and his assistants
sprayed on orchard very carefully
with sulphur lime, / have been forced
to believe that the lime and sulphur
fails to control the Scale. The or
chard that / speak of was sprayed in
the spring and when saw it in Sep
tember, fully fifty per cent Of the
fruit was badly affected with the scale.
Therefore, where there is any bad
cases of scale, I will advise the use
of oil sprays. In the early districts,
such as Kennewick, Richland, White
Bluffs, Hanford, etc., the sulphur-lime
seems to be doing the, work pretty
well, however, believe it would be
wise on the part of the grower to use
oil spray at least once every three or
four years.
Spray Early
"The oil spray should be put on be-
fore the buds are open or really be-
gin to open, as it is very penetrating
and will injure them. Some of the
manufacturers of the oil sprays claim
that their spray will destroy the aphis
egg. If this be true, it will not neces-
state the use of Black Leaf 40. You
can expect your spray material to be
higher than last year, brought on by
war conditions"

MRS. ALLISON SUES
FOR DIVORCE
D0mesticTrOubles of well Known
Couple to be Aired in Court
at Valley Club House

- One of the big fun stunts of the
year is to be pulled off at the Valley
Club house Friday evening when the
mock trial of Mrs. w. II. Allison VS..
w. H. Allison is called up for hear
ing before Judge c. L. Holcomb. Mrs.
Allison is suing her husband for di-
yorce, alleging that he wears red
necktie, attempts to initiate Charlie
Chaplin, flirts with the girls, gets in
to bed with cold feet and is guilty of
other serious violations of the mar
rage vows. The complaint further
recites that he has never bought the
plaintiff but five cents worth of candy
since their marriage and that he
bought a Ford instead of an automo-
bile.
The plaintiff will be represented by
Attorneys Crawford and Briggs and
the defendant by Attorneys Newkirk
and Puderbaugh. After the trial
there will be dancing and an oppor-
tunity given for starting other divorce
proceedings.

I'VE SHOULD WORRY"
JANUARY SEVENTH
Commercial Club to Give Farce
Comedy and Vaudeville Show
the Last of Next Week

Just to start the new year off right,
to put little pep into the member
ship and to give sort of free and
easy swing to things in general the
Commercial club is going to stage a
side-splitting three-act farce comedy
and pull off big ten-act vaudeville
show on the evnings of January z and
8.
"We Should Worry" is the name Of
the comedy and it measures fully up
to the title in being jolly, rollicking
affair. Owing to the extremely high
price of eggs an abundance Of local
talent has offered itself and rehears-
ais have been under way for several
days. The "We Should Worry" cast
will include such well known comedy
stars as Bill Wuth, Edwin Wight
Trenbath and Tom Swayze, who has
fully recovered from the whooping
cough.
Bill Wuth is billed to act natural,
Trenny is to give an imitation Of a
New Jersey Democrat making love,
and Tom is expected to create rough
house. The young ladies in the cast
are to look pretty and to engage more
or less seriously in the comedy Of the
play. The plot and settings of the
play are very true to life. The rise
of the curtain will reveal the luxur-
ious furnishings of a millionaire's
magnificent home. The part Of the
millionaire is to be taken, of course,
by the editor, because he is used to
such things. He stays out all night
and has real nifty little time trying
to square things with his wife. Wher
she refuses to believe one lie he in
vents another. (You know, we won
der if the fellow who wrote that
show ever lived in Kennewick?)
But anyway the second nights show
is to be hummer with ten real live
vaudeville acts for which the commun-
ity's best musical and comedy talent
has been lined up.
The shows are being staged under
the direction of Mr.. McNaughton, who
has made good with similar attrac-
tions in many towns thruout the
Northwest.

SERVICES ARE FREE

On account of illness Distict Horti-
cultural Inspector Luke Powell was
unable to keep his regular appoint
ment here today. When here last
week Mr.. Powell said he found one
orchardist who needed his services
but had not called him because he
thought he could not afford it.. "Just
tell the farmers" said Mr.. Powell,
'that my services, as those of Mr..
Lampson, are paid for by the state
and county and it doesn't cost the
farmer a cent to consult us or call us
to his farm. That is what we are here
for and no farmer should hesitate to
call us whenever we may be of any
assistance to him."

BUSINESS IS GOOD
SAY LOCAL DEALERS
Christmas Trade is Satisfactory
Better Times Coming
Says Banker

Business is Good" With one or
two exceptions this was the verdict of
Kennewick's business men last Mon
day morning after the wreckage of
last Fridays shopping had been
cleared away. Without exception ev-
cry merchant who specialized in holi-
day goods expressed himself as well
pleased with the Christmas trade.
Several of them say that business was
better than they expected and shows
a satisfactory increase over last year.
Trade in toys was not as brisk as it
might have been but there was no
falling off, but rather an increase in
sales of useful and practical gifts in
both home furnishings and dress ac-
cessories.
When asked regarding business con-
titions in general President L. E.
Johnson, of the First National Bank
said that financially the community is
about the same as it was year ago
with a noticeable buoyancy Of hopes
for better times during 1916. sour
deosits are just about the same as
they were a year ago." said Mr.. john
son. "Our loans have slightly in
creased but generally speaking col
lections are better. There is every in
dication that the year 1916 is going
to be the best Kennewick has had for
several years. There is absolutely no
doubt but that business conditions are
picking up the country over and we
are certain to feel the influence Of
these improved conditions.
"Local business conditions, of course
are primarily. dependent upon crop
and market conditions. I believe the
Kennewick farmer stands a better
chance to market his 1916 crops at
satisfactory prices than for several
years. With the exception Of potatoes,
wheat, hay, livestock, poultry and
dairy products the. products of this
valley must be classed as luxuries.
Our asparagus, our Strawberries, cher
ries, melons, peaches and even our ap-
! Piles must be classed as luxuries, the
demand for. which is not governed so
much by supply as by the prosperity
of the country and the surplus buying
power of the people. For this reason
general return of less stringent
times is bound to have direct effect
upon local conditions.
"There is already return of pros
perity in the mining camps and dis
tricts and indications are that activ-
tiles are to be resumed in the lumber
ing and other industries in territory
which can be reached with the pro-
ducts from ,our farms and orchards.
"There may not b. any great change
in the real estate market during the
coming year but even now there are
evidences of renewed activity in this
direction. / am not predicting any
big things for the valley in the way of
new investments, new capital or new
enterprises in 1916 but right now
there is more demand for Kennewick
valley lands than there has been for
several years. Everything considered
the outlook for 1916 presents many
phases which are really encouraging. y

SOMETHING WRONG. SOMEWHERE.

The three millionaires who served
on the United States Commission on
Industrial Relations have found that
labor is being oppressed in more ways
than the average citizen thinks.
Such a report, coming from employ
ers of labor, challenges the attention
of the nation.
Citizens of an agricultural commu-
nifty often think that man can get
lob II he wants to work. This error
is banished by the commissions re-
port. The commissioners find that
many men, skilled and unskilled, who
want to work actually cannot f1nd
Jobs. This, the report points out. con-
stitutes a serious danger to our re-
public
When honest men can find no en-
ployment, and are practically forced
into starvation or theft, something
constructive should be done immedl-
ately.
Many of the strikes in reality have
been real revolutions-revolts-
against industrial oppression, the re-
port contends.

MORE THAN COLUMBIA's SHARE.

The City Council last night award
ed the contract for the paving of Fly
fer Hill. Thus Columbia finishes its
share of the Old Trails Road and
paves the only unimproved link of the
cross-state highway in Boone County.
Many cities and counties would stop
at that and be satisfied Some are
satisfied with much less. In fact,
Boone County is the only county out
side of st. Louis and Jackson counties
that has a hard surface on its portion
of the Old Trails Road.
But the business men of Columbia
have a sense of duty out of all proper
ton to their obligation. They are now
encouraging the other counties to
rock that road" At the Commercial
Club luncheon yesterday a committee
was appointed to hasten action on the
Mineola Hills.
And with the "Blue Book Route"
through Centralia receiving such en-
couragement as it now is, 1t is well
that there is one county on the Old
Trails Road that is alive to the value
of a hard-surfaced cross-state high
