LOCAL men FORM
EMPIRE GRAIN Co.
r.. E. Pratt and F. l.. Watson to
Engage in Grain Buying
Sacks are High

The latest arrival in Kennewick's
business family is the Empire Grain
company, organized by r. E. Pratt
and F. L. Watson. The new company
will have it's headquarters at the Wat
son warehouse and will engage in a
general grain buying business and
may also later handle feeds in car
lots as side line. Mr.. Watson ex-
poets to leave about the first Of July
to take charge of a grain warehouse
at Coulee City, and the local ware
house will be operated by Mr.. Pratt.
The company has not yet incorporat-
ed, but probably will within a short
time.
Mr.. Pratt returner Sunday from a
business trip to Walla Walla and
Portland and expects soon to visit
the Sound cities. The purpose Of Mr..
Pratt's trip was to investigate the
grain bag situation and get line on
the wheat market. While in Port
land he placed an order for $4,000
sacks which, in addition to other pur-
chases that have been made, he be-
lieves will be sufficient to supply the
local demand. Although there has
been big jump in the price Of sacks
within the last few weeks and consid-
cradle rumor about a shortage, Mr..
Pratt is of the opinion that every
farmer will be able to supply his
needs. The price, however, may be
several cents higher than the present
quotations.

jutant generals office as could be used in any other part of the war department. And that explains the efficiency
 We hear much in our day regard. ing the need for more efficiency Merchants, business men, workmsn and municipalities are continually having the good of efficiency held up before them as the end of all effort.
 Merchants are told from alleged expert" sources that when a GUS tcmer walks into his shop that the thing to do is to wait on him instant ly If three Or four or a dozen peo- pie walk into the place at the same time he is told that he should have sufficient help on hand to take care of every emergency. The sort of literature fired at merchants is enough to drive them crazy. They know that each person behind the counter can wait on only one person at time and that no efficiency" that will ever De invented will im- prove on this possibility; and they know that when more folks enter the store than there are clerks, 1t IS reasonable to suppose that somebody has got to wait bit.
 And as for business men, manufac- turers and workingmen, they know they are about as efficient as nature allows, and are beginning to hate tie sound of the word. 1t had a novel sound once, but it has about reached the point where it is re- garded as "old-stuff."
 The word has been aimed at niuni- cipalities until made noise like the c]ang of forge. And tremen- dous average of American towns and cities have been badly. nlismanaged, it is. true. so that they furnished broad fields for the sefffcissicy moSe ,uent But the most of them have about as much efficiency as they can stand; by the time their debts are paid off there will be room for more.

It has not gone unnoticed that Ebert Hubbard, who departed this life on the Lusitania, has left us quite unsung. Few papers seem to have taken the trouble to print an obituary of "The Fra" This ignominous de- parture of really brilliant nan would be hard to explain to anyone not having watched the record of Hubbard in late years. The belief that he was writing too much for the money that was in it, but especi'tlly for interests having considerable to pay, would not down. His mixture in the kefeller-Colorado business dld not add to his lustre, no matter how the sage of Aurora squeezed olt Of the tight place in which 1ls critics forced him His record would incl cate that loyalty to a high motive justice, and sincerity are higher qualifications to enduring fame for 8 writer than an ability to utilize ones talents iE the direction of the money tags.

 ROSPERITY
RESP0NSIBfLITY OF WEALTH

The man of great wealth is neces- carily leader in the community in which he lives, says the Beaumont (Texas) Enterprise, which points cut: His leadership does not always depend on any qualities of his own. Often it depends entire.y on his money. His money leads if he does not Even if he inherited his money, he Inherited with it the responsi- bility of wealth. If he made his roney himself his responsibility is even greater. The community where he made his wealth has a distinct claim on it, and through 1t on him. This claim demands that the wealth and it's owner shall safeguard the interests of the community in every possible way. This responsibility of wealth is in direct ratio to the amount of wealth.
 Every man has an unquestionable right to dispose of his wealth as he sees fit, provided always that he pays to society that tax on his grati- Jude that he owes to the community where he accumulated his sub- stance.
 Every man owes to the common wealth something besides the fixed taxes he pays for the maintenance oi national, state and municipal govern. ment. It is debt not fixed by statute, but it is none the less real It can be properly discharged only when the individual contributes ir direct proportion to his means fol those enterprises that make for tht common good.
 It is only when men of grea wealth fail to recognize the responsi bility of wealth that particular atten tion is given to the theories of thost who hold that the "unearned incre ment" does not righMully belong t' the individual but to society.
