SOLDIER APPLES
COMING SLOWLY
Unless Car Can be Loaded by
Monday Night There will be
No Car from Kennewick

Instead Of being the first town in
the Northwest to ship a carload Of
apples for the soldiers in France, ii
begins to look as tho Kennewick
would be the last, if it gets its name
in the pot at all.
To date j. w. Vickers and II. w.
Desgranges, who have charge Of the
campaign, have been disappointed with
the manner in which subscriptions
have been coming in. Mr.. Vickers
said today that while some Of the
growers had responded most literally,
the business men had been more lib
eral contributors than had the grow
ers as whole.
Between 200 and $50 boxes are now
needed to make up the car and Mr..
Vickers says that unless these can be
had before Monday evening the pro-
position will be dropped and the mon
ey returned to the cash contributors
Mr.. Vickers says he doesn't know
where a Kennewick dollar could buy
as much for a soldier as it will in
this instance. A dollar contributed
here means box Of apples delivered
to the American soldiers in France
In New York the man who contributes
a box of apples contributes three dol.
lars instead of one.
