REGULAR TEAM
FOR KENNEWICK
Joe Martin Says there is a Lot
of First Class Material in
the Sagebrush

Kennewick is to have regular base
ball team. Joe Martin says so. Ever
since the alfalfa began to sprout in the
early spring Joe's ball arm has been
itching and he has been wanting to
get some diamond excitement started.
He announced yesterday that things
are now doing.
Mr.. Martin says he has scared a
lot of first class material out of the
orchards and the sagcbrush and now
has almost complete lineup of ex-
perienced bah players who will make
any of the small-town teams travel
some. He still has openings for one
or two more good ones and requests
that all former ball players commun-
icate with him.
Joe is going to take his bunch to
Richland Sunday for the first game of
the season. One of the features of
this years play is to be twilight ball.
The towns of the Yakima Valley have
already organized league and it is
too late for Kennewick to get in, but
Mr.. Martin hopes to be able to arrange
series of games with Prosser, Grand
view, Mabton, Sunnyside and Toppen-
ish to be played in the evenings of
week days. With the clock an hour
ahead of the sun evening play will
be possible. For Sunday attractions
he hopes to take on Pasco, Touchet,
Connell and Walla Walla.

ton school arc to be abandoned and

Beginning to Think They

E. B. See, Battery E, 146th Field

Battery E from Walla Walla to Cob

While on the train the returned SOL

many:
"While the boys of the 146th F. A.
have done their share of fighting,
there is still a feeling that the folks
back home have forgotten them. In
one way at least, and that is to do
their share in getting the boys home.
s'The boys of the other states have
come home and are back to civilian
life and their former positions, while
our boys are drudging in Germany.
"It's about time the folks realized
what they have been thru. Wake
up before it's too late. Don't wait for
somebody else. In unity there is
strength The boys Over There are
downhearted and discouraged and be-
lieve the State of Washington has for
gotten her boys.
This information comes from SOL
dier who has been in the A. of O..

and is one of the regiment that was
lucky. If anyone cares for informa-
tion, write or call on E. B. See, 1131 "

BERRIES GOING
STRONG AT FINISH
Price is $3.75 Crate with More
Orders than Berries Season
Over Next Week

There seems to he little doubt but
that the strawberry season will fin
ish up with an average price well
above $3.75. Only once since the sea-
son opened has the price dropped be-
low that figure and then only for one
day, when the Union quoted cut at
$3.50. The price today was $3.75 with
a brisk demand and orders consider
ably in excess, of receipts.
The peak of the season has passed
and it is estimated that by the middle
of next week the season will be over
except fora few struggling shipments.
The quality of the berries has been
fair, but the average yield for the
valley has been below normal. Yet
some of the newer patches have been
showing up well with a per-acre yield
e.f eco crates.
Monday was the Unions biggest day
when 1450 crates were handled. Sine
then there has been steady declinn,
with an increasing percentage of culls.
Yesterday the Union shipped 104o
crates and today's receipts will prob
ably not exceed the thousand mark.
The Unions total shipments, including
today's, aggregate about 10,250 crates.
The daily asparagus shipments have
dropped to less than 100 crates day
but the price is holding firm around
a dollar and the seasons average will
be well above that figure.
