The selection of an agricultural
teacher for the high school, which has
been giving the school board consid-

tied. Altho they have not elected him,
the board is considering favorably the
application Oh j. E. Glasspoole, of Cal

Wis, normal and of the agricultural
school of the University of Wisconsin.
MIR. Glasspoole is now doing post
graduate work at the university farm

Army demands have made first-rate
agricultural teachers very hard to get
and the board considers itself FORUM

draft age, of the necessary qualifica-
lions, to take the place of Alvin Hill

GAMERS MAY GET
Is POUNDS SUGAR
And None of That May Be Used
in Putting Up Jellies or
Preserves

Mrs. F. M. Crosby, food admins
traitor for eastern Benton county, is
now issuing permits under which the
housewives may purchase 25 pounds
of sugar for canning purposes only.
This is in addition to the regular quo
ia of three pounds person per month,
which is the maximum amount dealers
are now allowed to sell for cooking
and table use. Those who are EMIT
led to 25-fb. permits may get them
at DR.. Crosby's Office.
To get the 25-pound allotments of
sugar for canning purposes the pur-
chaser agrees to use none of it for
jams, jellies or preserves. No Sc
'cond purchase will hereafter be is
sued by the county food administra-
tion.
A late bulletin on the sugar situa-
tion, issued from the office of Charles
Hebberd, federal food administrator
for Washington, says:
"The necessity for further conser-
walton of sugar may be summed up in
the following: We used the ships which
bring sugar. from a distance to this
country for other purposes. Some
of the countries closest to us from
which we might import sugar have a
small yield this year. Our own domes-
tic sugar crop is smaller than we ex-
pected and submarines have sunk
ships transporting sugar to this
country"

LOCAL FIRM IS HIT HARD

Work or Fight Ruling Will Take Many
Employees from Produce Co. Z
Probably no single firm in this part
of the state will be hit by the work or
fight ruling as hard as The Produce
Company, which will lose ten or a
dozen men from its payroll out of a
total of about twenty men under the
draft age employed.
Altho the county draft board has
made no definite ruling as yet on the
question, it is expected that all en-
ployees under draft age who are not
heads of departments will have to give
up their jobs here and get into some
line of war-production work. At the
local stores, John Brog, bookkeeper
has already left for Seattle to look up
a new position and several of the
other boys have served notice that they
will soon leave to work for Uncle Sam
in harvest field or shipyard.

ASPARAGUS AVERAGE
ABOVE A DOLLAR
Selling Price for Season was a
Dollar and Seven and a Half
Cents Box

/ According to figures just given out
by the Spokane Fruit Growers com
pany, they handled for the KeEnewick-
Richland Marketing Union this year
9,760 boxes Of asparagus, which rep
resents nearly the total crop of the
valley.
These 9,760 boxes were sold for $10,-
528.85, or an average of $1.0754 per
12-pourG box. The price to the grow
ers was ten cents box less, as there
is handling charge Of 10 cents per
box. US.
The shipping season extended over
the period from April /, to June IA,
the, heaviest daily shipment being on
April 90, whom 543 boxes were mar
keted. The highest price received for
any one poolIwas 1925 a box at the
opening of the season and the lowest
was 48 cents box for the pool of
April 13 when the quality of the grass
had become very poor.
. An interesting feature OF the re-
port is the ups and downs of the mar
ket. The last part of April the price
dropped to Sc cents, but on the last
day Of that month prices began to
climb until on May % the grass was
bringing $1.44 a box. It held above
the dollar mark until June 9, when the
decline became rapid.
On the whole the season was very
satisfactory one and will give new i'm
petus to the asparagus industry in
the valley. It is expected that there
will be considerable new acreage set
out this year, as grass has been a con-
sistent money maker and sure crop.

CLASS | MEN In AUG.
Local Board is Advised that the
Second August Call Will
Be Heavy 90.

Class 1 registrants in this county
who have applied for deferred induc-
ton until after harvst, may possibly
have their request refused, except in
a few especially meritorious cases, ac-
cording to notice sent out yesterday

pia, advising that the second August

in the aggregate, and instructing the
board to refuse releases for navy, ma
rines or emergency fleet to all regis
trants in Glass /.
A good many of the 1917 class who
have been recently classified and put
in Glass have asked to be allowed
to finish thir harvest, and the local
board wishes to advise these that they
may have to hold themselves ready
for entreinment during the coming
month, as the selctive service depart
ment also asked that the local board
wire at once the number of Class
men left on their list.
These now number 55, including the
following seven men who are listed
under the first August call for en-
trainment to Camp Fremont, CAL, on
August 5th:
Clarence H. Lille, Pasco; John Long,
Prosser; John C. Rearick, White
Bluffs; Peter Taggares, Kent; Fred j.
Bachman, Seattle; Henry Holmes, Of
Paterson; Vito Michielli, Darby, Pa;
alternate, Otto Reese, Kennewick.
After the July draft of "a men,

were added thru the recent reclassi-
fication.
