Eastern horticulture and retarding
Western development.
Knowing these truths, Mr.. Church
set his face and bent his efforts toward
definite goal. He started out to
make an unfermented grape juice a
little better than any that had yet
been made and to reclaim the West
ern market for Western product. To
extract the Columbia Valleys aromat-
lc sunshine from the grape and incor-
porate it in a healthful and invigor-
ating beverage was comparatively an
easy task. And Church's Grape Juice
which had its birth in homely stew
kettle in Kennewick kitchen four
years ago was last year given the
highest award of merit for superior
quality at the Panama-Pacifc EXPOSE
ton at San Francisco and at the Pan
ama-California Exposition at San Die
go, in competition open to the manu-
facturers of the world.
The article concludes with a story of
MIR. Church's battle to put the new in
dustry upon its feet and to establish
Church's Grape Juice in the markets
n competition with the big eastern
manufacturers.

SAY Smut EXPLOSIONS
CAN BE CONTROLLED
State College Men Demonstrate How
to Avoid Fires in the Har-
re- vest Fields

The State College of Washington
and U. S. Department of Agriculture
cooperating, now have men in the
field in eastern Washington prevent
ing smut explosions in threshing ma
chimes and demonstrating the use of a
device for extinguishing threshing ma
chine fires.
Elmer Johnson, for the u. S. De-
partment of Agriculture, and I. D.
Charlton, for the state college, are ex-
planning the causes of smut explosions
in threshing machines. They empha-
size the Importance of wiring sep
arator to carry off the static electricity
and of using a fan attachment to get
rir of smut dust in the machines.
Within the next few days these men
wilt have demonstrated in eigE. dis
t.icts in Whitman county alone. The
sole aim in sending them out is to in.
terest threshing machine owners in
avoiding the enormous losses which
have been sustained within the last
two years by Washington farmers
thru smut explosions.
An old separator is procured where
1t is possible and an actual explosion
is caused and the device which the
men are using brought into play. In
cases where the separator cannot be
secured the apparatus is put up on
saw horses and the demonstration car
rled on. Lantern slides and moving
pictures illustrate the apparatus in de-
tail.
The government and state officials
feel that no effort is too great when it
comes to controlling the loss thru fires
in the harvest fields.

SEATTLE MEN OUT -
FOR MEASURE NO. "a
Claim Brewery Bill Will Correct
Economic Weaknesses of
Prohibition Law

AS forerunner of a strong cam
paign which will be conducted this
fall to secure the adoption of initia-
tive measure No. "a, VIM. Corcoran
and James M. Quilter, of Seattle, WIS.,
tied Kennewick Saturday.
Initiative No. "a is a proposed
amendment to the state prohibition
law and is commonly known as the
brewery bill as its passage would adj
NIT Of the manufacture of beer in the
state. The measure does not contem-
plate the re establishment of the sa-
loon as the beer is to be sold direct
to the consumer from the brewery in
limited quantities.
The Seattle men expressed them
selvs as very hopeful for the success
of the measure at the November cleo
ton. Initiative measure No. "a is
not regarded even by many of the pro-
hibitionists, as a step backward" said
Mr.. Corcoran. "One of the chief ar
in its favor is that it is in
tended to correct some of the economic
of the prohibition law
disturbing its moral features.
The purchase of beer in limited guam
titles is permitted under the present
aw but the purchases must be made
outside of the state of Washington.
This, we claim, is an economic mis-
AXE which can be corrected by the.
adoption of the amendment proposed
" initiative measure No. "a"
Mr.. Corcoran and Mr.. Quilter are
ravelling by automobile and are maxi
ng short stops in all of the towns in
he eastern part of the state.

GOVERNMENT ROAD
FUND APPORTIONED
State of Washington Gets Near
ly Seventy-tw0 Thousand
for First Year

The secretary of agriculture, under
date of July 81, 1916, certified to the
secretary of the treasury and the gov
ernors and state highway departments
of the several states apportionment of
the S5,000,000 of federal road funds
available for the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1917. This is the first in
stallment of federal moneys to be ap-
portioned to the states under the fed
eral aid road act approved July IL,
1916. Before making the division
among the states, the secretary, in ac-
cordance with the act, deducted three
per cent, or S150,00O, needed for ad-
ministering its provisions. This left
$4,S5O,OO0 to be apportioned among
the states, one-third in the ratio of
area, one-third in the ratio of popula-
ton, and one-third in the ratio of
mileage of rural delivery routes and
star routes. The apportionment on
this basis gives the state of WASH
ington s71, ss4.2s. This apportionment
is only of one years funds. For sue
ceeding fiscal years the act appropria-
les the following amounts: 1918, s10,-
Doc, 900; 1919, $4,000, 900; 1920, $780,
DOG. 900; 1921, $25, 100000
The act requires that the apportion-
nent for each year shall be made in
he same manner. Different sums are
appropriated each year and the appor-
ionment must also take into consider
ltion the population as shown by the
attest available federal census and the
Mileage of rural delivery and star
outes as shown by the certificate Of
he postmaster general for the next
receding fiscal year. A new appor-
ionment, therefore, must be announc-
d for each fiscal year.
The apportionment just made does
OF take into consideration the ST.
100000 additional appropriated each
ear for ten years for the develop
lent of roads in the national forests.
