Ministries Prove
Enjoyable Show

The crowd that turned out to the
minstrel show in Codding hall, Sat-
urday night, was pretty conclusive
evidence that the people here are
hungry for entertainment of the
right sort. The show itself was
largely successful because of the
local color given to the jokes. The
boys all have good "acting stuff" if
they will get in and drill" 1t
was the first effort for most of
them, and considering the short
time and difficulties under which
they had to practice, they did re-
markably we'll. The hit of the
evening was probably the song by
Leo Chambers, entitled when That
Bundle Bee Backed into Me and
Pushed" The boys took in about
$50 at the gate, and after deduct
ing expenses, the balance will lie
applied toward the formation of a
permanent dramatic society. 1t is
planned to have this society in op-
Grafton by next winter, and it is
believed that good deal of enjoy
ment can be had by developing the
talent to be found here.

School Election
Saturday, Mar. 3

People generally in the district
are taking considerable interest in
the school election to be held Sat-
urday. Four candidates for direc-
tor have been prominently men,
toned: Mrs. M. S. Meeks, Edmund
Anderson, j. S. Moreland and w.
j. Kincaid. Mr.. Meeks informs
the Spokesman that Mrs. Meeks
says under no circumstances will
she be candidate Saturday. Mr..
Anderson says ''if MI. Kincaid is a
candidate, then | am not and | am
for him." Mr.. Kincaid says that
he is candidate as also. of course,
does Mr.. Moreland. So the issue
will be, fought out between these
two. Both have lived in the dis
trict for good many years and
their qualifications, business ability
and general standing in the COM
munity are so we'll known to every
voter in the district as to need no
elucidation here.

Clyman Plum
as Pollenizer

The Agricultural Experiment sta
ton of California advises this office
that the Clyman plum is a very sat
isfactory pollenizer for the Tragedy
prune.
They do not give instructions as
to how far pollen from one prune
tree will be carried, but observa-
lions of other varieties of fruits
show that the pollen from one tree
will be carried by the wind from
two to four trees away.
This Clyman plum is freestone,
firm flesh, very prolific and early.
Wickson says that it is the "lead-
ing early plum for shipment"
believe if / were setting out q
Tragedy prune orchard, would set
every sixth row the Clyman plum,
beginning with the third row, from
one end to the other. This would
give me two good fruits for the
early market. Luke Powell

High Test by
Grade Heifer

That blood will tell was proven
again this week when a 23-months
old grade heifer belonging to j. H..
Cole, was tested. During the sew
en- days beginning last Sunday she
gave 260 pounds of milk and on
three separate trials she tested an
even six per cent. This means that
she produced 1876 pounds of butter
fat, which is equal to 17.9 pounds
of IS per cent butter.
Her dam was an ordinary grade
Jersey but she was sired by Ger
ties Ilahee Stoke Pogis. the young
Jersey bull brought into the coun-
try about three years ago by a few
of the local ranchers who were de-
sirous of raising the standard Of
the Jersey stock here.
The Cole heifer came fresh on
February 9Th, and is the first off
spring from Gertie's Ilahee Stoke
Pogis tn freshen. Several more Of
his heifers in the community are
due to drop their calves in the next
month and their owners are elated
over the showing made by the Cole
heifer. 1t has also, incidentally,
given quite boost to the commu-
nifty bull club proposition.

Cold in South
Hits Early Spuds

Yakima valley people who are
figuring on the growing of early
potatoes but who have wondered
what the Texas and Florida compe-
tition would be will. be interested
in knowing that reports which have
come out from Florida say that
cold there a week and ten days ago
killed all vegetable crops as far
south as Florida City, which is be-
low Miami. Vero reports $50
acres of potatoes destroyed in that
vicinity alone. Texas reports all
vegetables destroyed and new
paintings necessary. Alabama re-
ports that seed, fertilizer and labor
are so high that the southern pota-
to acreage will be less this year
than for many years heretofore

The tri-weekly stage service be-
tween White Bluffs and Kennewick
was instituted this week, the stage
arriving on time at IL a. m. Thurs
day. The Kennewick Transfer Co.
is instituting the service. Negoti-
ations are under way for the taking
over by them of the mail contract
now held by Captain Brown of the
Hartford Flyer. If the stage COM
pany is successful in securing this
contract it intends to put on daily
stage. The company is equipped
to handle almost any kind and any
amount of business. 1t has three
different sized autos and will also
have a trailer when occasion de-
-mands. Schedule and other infor-
nation regarding the stage will be
found in the company's ad in the
Spokesman next week.

Bright Prospect
for Priest Rapids

Some local people interested in
the development of the Priest Rap
ids power site wrote Senator Miles
Poindexter asking if the endorse
ment of the governments plan to
establish a nitrate plant at that
place, by the commercial organiza-
lions of the principal towns of the
state, would be advisable at this
time. To this letter Senator Poin-
dexter replied as follows:
"The commission appointed by
the president now have under con-
sideration the selection of site
for the government nitrate plant
and the testimony before them
strongly recommends Priest Rapids
as one of the two most prominent
locations mentioned. / believe
that it will be a great thing for
our state if a plant were located
within its boundaries and am salts
fed that such recommendations as
you mention would at least have
the effect of securing serious con-
sideration for that site."
There appear to be great many
people who would prefer that the
Priest Rapids site be developed by
the government instead of private
capital. If they are really in ear
nest they will have to get busy, for
the possibility of the government
becoming interested in that site
was never brighter.

Mail for
Daily R. F. D.

The last trip by the R. F. D. car
rier for the month of February
was made Tuesday. In spite of the
fact that last month was the first
month for the service in addition
to being the shortest month of the
year, the amount of mail handled
was considerably in excess of that
required fer daily service. Twelve
hundred pieces per month must be
handled on a route of this length
to hold the route and twice that
number to carry it to daily service.
The carrier handled 1923 pieces, or
723 more than that required for
the daily service.
Just as soon as the rules of the
post Office department will permit,
an application for the daily service
will be made. In the meantime,
every. friend of the R. F. D. can do
his part toward the daily service
by seeing that the route is patron
lied as much as possible.
The more patrons it has and the
more business it handles the better
impression it will make with the

will grow and prosper exactly in
to the business given to
it by the ranchers.

Formula For
Grating Wax
Four pounds of rosin
Two pounds of beeswax
One pound of tallow

OHe pOuHQ OIL IallOW
Put these into a vessel and heat
until they melt to liquid. This
mixture should be kept hot and APP
piled with brush to all cut sur
faces and the cracks should be thor
oughly covered with this wax. The
work should be gone over again the
second day to cover any spots that
might have been missed the first
time.
One way to keep the wax hot is
to use a small oil stove that can be
carried out in the orchard; another
way is to pour some boiling water
into vessel and set the vessel con-
tanning the grating wax into the
boiling water.
1t is not practical to do your
grating on windy or cold days, as
the wax cools and hardens too
quickly.
BE SURE THAT THE TIP END
OF GRAFT is WAXED.

eruptions of earth gave the effect of mines
Trench mortars hurling bombs were also
initiated clevery. while rolling clouds of
vapor from nozzles in the defensive works
gave everything that was desired as a rep
resentation of asphyxiatng gas. Here and
there were mammoth sixteen-inch guns be-
ing shattered by internal explosions in
manner to suggest that enemy shell
had struck them fairly.
Another thing in which the indispensable
electric decorating apparatus figured was
the discharge of a battery of four fegula-
ton United States army field guns exactly
timed to suit the psychological requirements
of Commodore Blackton. These were not
discharged by the artllerymen that stood
round the guns, In this case the soldiers
| merely went through the motions. A cool
and practiced man in the background
touched them off with battery and wires
connected to each gun at the direction of
| Commodore Blackton This was done in
| order that the action of the guns might
| be absolutely timed with the action of the
scene, and it was necessary for one man
| only to have control of the discharges. This
was done delcately and in perfect harmony
