wv. Vickers, manager OF the high

of The Produce Company. a Bean

tractor to be sold In Benton county
for orchard work and is giving entire
satisfaction on the connpany's 5S-acre

The day the machine.was purchased
it was taken out and put to work
pulling two 8-foot discs. 1t has been
consuming six gallons of gasoline and
cultivating ten acres both ways each

doing the work of six horses and is
costing nothing for maintenance wher

in the orchard and can be turned read

ssAG' CLASSES ARE
GETTING UNDER WAY
New Instructor has Work well
Organized Plea Made for
More Home Interest

The classes in Smith Hughes agrl-
culture and farm project work are be-
ing organized, and to date the pro-
gress made by A. L. Marble, the IN
structor, is satisfactory. Prof. h M 4
Skidmon, of Washington State Col
lege, spent two days here in directing
the organization of the work.
Lee Lampson gave the schools the
benefit Of his extensive acquaintance
with local agricultural conditions.
About thirty high school boys have en-
rolled either for class work or held
project work, or both.
This week Mr.. Marble will canvass
the upper grammar grades on CLUB
work. Inasmuch as he will remain
at his office thruout the summer and
will have an opportunity to see the
various projects completed, the pupils
do not now hesitate to undertake club
!, work. So much for agriculture.
But all boys do not want to be
farmers and The schools ought to offer
something to those who do not want
to take the course in agriculture. 1t
is the policy to make every course Of
fered by the schools worth while. The
manual training course will be given
special attention. Miss Thomas, the
manual training teacher, has been I'M
4 firing in her efforts to put some pei
I Into this department. We are getting
4 some results, but are in need OF twt

course as strong as it will be possible
with the resources at hand. In carry
ing out this plan we ask the cooper
alton Of all the patrons OF the school.
The high school is planning to give
in the near future an evening enter
tainment at the Princess Theatre. The
main feature of this entertainment
will be a two-act drama. The academic
part of the years work is near enough
to schedule to justify such an under
taking. There is very much OF real
worth to be learned at school that is
not found in textbooks. How I'M
portant it is that your boy and girl
Fbe taught how to possess poise and to
be able to express themselves well to
others. No textbook can teach these
things.

FOUR DOLLARS A BOX
FOR YAKIMA WINESAPS
Horticultural Union Reports Record
Price for Two Carloads of
80; Extra Fancies

Two carloads of extra fancy four
and four-and-a-half tier Yakima Wine
lsaps sold by the Horticultural Union
for 81 per box established the highest
price for apples so far this season.
says the Yakima Republic. 1t is the
highest price ever obtained in Yakima
history.
Two carloads were sold. about two
weeks ago for 1918, by Albert McMa-
hon of j. & G. Lippman,. Inc., who
predicted then that apples would go to
81 or more, but the market has been
somewhat weaker since and only one
sale at better than $S.75, prior to the
horticultural Union sale, can be con-
frmed. This wa, for two carloads of
extra fancy Winesaps, 1895 and larg-
or, with 10 per cent sitter for $500
lpcr box.
IT think it safe to say that no such
4 prices have ever before been received
4 for Yakima apples" said Manager F,
Eberle of. the Union. Certainly nc
such regular market price has ever
before been obtained, and if com.
mercial pack ever brought that figure
: it was for early season orders"
4 The large demand for. export, fol
/ lowing the opening of navigation tt
. Europe and South America, is assignet
as one reason for the extraordinar,
i figures Eastern dealers are willing t.
: pay for Yakima fruit, and the recen
freight rate advance of. 25 cents pc
. 100 pounds on shipments to Londol
. and Liverpool, coupled with the tie-u
: on the Atlantic seaboard on account O
; strikes and resulting embargoes,
e given as the reason for the temporar
