Creamery Machinery Sold

The creamery company at Orofino
bought the machinery from the
creamery plant here and will move
it to the new location as soon as the
building has been erected. F. S.
Weissenfuh, who recently had
charge of the creamery located at
Sites, was in Kendrick about two
weeks ago and thought favorabIy of
locating here but plans which he
had made at Orofino had gone too
far to allow him to break them so
instead of starting the creamery
here, he will move it to Orofino
where he has formed a stock comp
any. The company has started
building operations at Orohno.
The creamery that was operated
here for several years, never really
made expenses. 1t gradually went
behind financially until there is
now quite a heavy Indebtedness
hanging over the plant. 1t has sell
dom been noted that a mutual
creamery is paying proposition.

Good Crop Of Prunes

W. M. Crapo of Lewiston, man.
ager of the Oregon Packing Comp
any's plant at Charleston, was in
Kendrick Thursday looking over
the prune crop in this locality. He
says conditions are very encourag-
ing for larger crop than has been
grown here for several years and
that the quality is better than US
ual. He believes, however, that
good rain is needed to mature the
crop.
Mr.. Crapo has purchased prunes
here for a number of years and
knows this territory and the con-
ditions Under which the prunes are
grown. He does not hesitate to
say that if the prune orchards were
sprayed twice year, once in the
spring and again in the fall, and
thoroughly cultivated, the quality
of the prunes raised in this section
would grade very high. The most
unfavorable condition under which
the buyers are working here is the
lack of size of the prunes. Those
who take good care of their orch
ards bring in frts class prunes that
will grade we'll for size, but very
few orchards receive this care.
The price being offered this year
ought to be encouraging to the
growers and result in their
orchards receiving more considera-
tion.
Mr.. Crapo says that a very con-
servative estimate of the crop in
this locality is 25O tons, providing
the crop natures under favorable
conditions. While the prune orch.
ards are handled here more in the
nature of a sideline, there are some
large orchards that will have a croE
valued at from four to five thousanc
dollars, at the present market price
In order to encourage the buyers
the growers of both large and small
lots of prunes, should bring then
to market this season so that tht
volume of business would be grea
enough to make this desirable
buying point.

Atchison To Install Furnace

E. P. Atchison has ordered thru
the local agency, the Kenrdick
Hardware Co., a Caloric pipeless
furnace. This is hot air furnace
and will be the first one to be in
stalled in Kendrick residence.
Furnace heat and an electric range
make Mr.. Atchison's home strictly
modern. The new model hot air
furnaces are very efficient heating
systems and save work for the
housekeeper, are convenient and
make an even temperature all over
the house.
Mr.. Rlggin is now building the
furnace chimney so that when the
new furnace arrives 1t will be a
very simple matter to install it..
Now that the ice is broken. other
residences will be equipped with
furnace heat in the near future.

Walker Performs Miracle

Last week the cylinder press in
the Gazette office went on the
bum" A leather pump cup, Q part
of the air pressure system of the
press, went to pieces. A wild S. O.
S. to the Type Foundry in Spokane
brought little comfort. All the
company could do was to refer US
to the cylinder press manufacturing
company in Rhode Island. Now to
send to Rhode Island for the repairs
would mean that the Gazette would
have to suspend publication for
week or more, so that was out of
the question. We again commun-
icated with the American Type re-
preventative, who usually solves all
the difficulties of the printer, but
he said there was absolutely no
place in Spokane where leather
pump cup Of the kind could be Sc
cured. In desperation, and more
for consolation than anything else,
we went down to our local harness
maker and asked him what could be
done about it. He said he couldn't t
possibly make one but he would try.
The paper is out on scheduled time
this week, so you know the result.
We have come to the conclusion
that our harness manufacturing
plant can make anything IN the
world out of leather. The press
runs better than ever and we have
decided that if you can't get what
you want any place else in the
world, try Kendrick.

First Threshing This Season

The first threshing to be done this
season in the Potlatch was on the
Herman Lohman place en- Potlatch
ridge. Mr.. Lohman started the
company machine, in which he is
interested, last Wednesday. He
had piece of Fortyfold fall wheat
in prime condition to thresh. 1t
yielded we'll and the kernels showed
no signs of shrlnkage from the dry
weather.
E. p. Atchison states that this is
the earliest threshing on record.
Up to this season the earliest date
remembered was July 28, just five
days later than the first wheat
threshed this season.

Crops Not So Bad

w. F. McGhee of Potlatch ridge
doesn't seem alarmed about the
crop situation. He thinks there is
no other country on earth that
could go as long without rain and
still harvest crop, as the Potlatch
country has this season. He has
some fall grain that he says will
yield 40 bushels to the acre A
field of Marquis wheat, spring
grain, which he expected earlier
in the season would yield 80 bushels
to the acre, he believes now will
produce about twenty bushels to
the acre. He says that many bean
fields Will yield from two to three
sacks to the acre without a drop of
rain. This sounds encouraging
when we consider the fact that in
large areas of farming country
tributary to this, there will be
many fields of grain that will not
pay to cut.

Another Auto Accident

Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. Rogers and
Mr.. and Mrs. George Leith left
early SUNDAY morning for the Bo-
will country on a huckleberry pick
ing expedition. Shortly before ar
irving at Bovill they ran out of
gasoline. Mr.. Rogers and Mr.. Leith
went to town for the gasoline and
when starting back to camp some
thing went wrong with the gasoline
feed system Of the car. Mr.. Rogers
was driving and at very steep hill
the car apparently got too much
gasoline and ran away. At point
in the road where the dust was very
deep the hind wheels skidded which
gave Mr.. Rogers the choice of run
ming into a large stump or turning
the car over the bank. He chose
the latter of the two evils. Just
as the car started to go over Mr..
Leith rolled out on the upper side
and Mr.. Rogers took a chance on
rolling under the car on the lower
side. Both escaped without serious
injury, although Mr.. Leith was con-
siderably bruised as he landed on a
pile of rocks.
The car rolled over twice and
landed right side up. Outside of a
broken top, windshield and damaged
tenders and doors, there was moth
ing wrong with the car. 1t was
started and came home on it's own
power. The loss of three gallons
and half of huckleberries was sus-
tanned with mingled feelings of re-
gret, but the whole party consider
ed themselves lucky to get out OF
the accident without serious injury

and were a part of thirty,seven
carload shipment of stock from the

DR.. Hoyt writes from Spokane
that he and Mrs. Hoyt have decided
to locate in the city. He has open
ed office rooms in the Paulsen
Building and is now actively engag-
ed in the practice of his profession.
The many friends of the Hoyt fam
lily will be keenIy disappointed to
learn of their declsion not to return
to Kendrick but they will undoubt-
edly wish them all success in their
new location. DR.. Hoyt was very
successful while here and has left
only because he believed Spokane
offered a wider field for surgical
work, in which he desires to special
ize.

Will Install Posting Machine

The Farmers Bank has ordered
one of the latest model posting
which will be installed
not later than the first of Septem-
ber. Mr.. Mcconnell, cashier of the
bank, states that the increasing
business of the bank made it neces-
sary to secure one of these efficient
machines. 1t is still more evidence
of the growth of business in the
prosperous PotIacth. Both Kend-
rick banks will now be equipped
with one Of these machines, as the
Kendrick State Bank has been using
one for some time.
Posting machines simplify book
keeping in the bank to a large de-
gree and they make 1t possible to
keep individual daily balances with
ease and accuracy.
Mr.. Mcconnell states that there is
every prospect Of securing a new
bank building in the very near
future, in order to obtain more
vault room and larger Office quart
ers. This will be one more bust.
ness building for the town and will
be a substantial improvement.

town say that if there was a repet-
ltion of the offence the party who
committed 1T would stand a good
show to see what the inside of the

Has Modern Chicken House

J. C. Hamil believes in giving
his thoroughbred White Leghorn
chickens a home worthy of their
station in life. He built a new
chicken house this summer, which
was completed a short time ago,
that is 20 by 72 feet. 1t is divided
into four pens Is by 20 feet each
and in the center is a scratching
shed IL by 20 feet with a loft over
head for storing straw. There is
running water in each of the pens,
piped from a spring on the Hamil
place.
This is rather an elaborate "hen-
house" but as Mr.. Hamil is kept
busy most of the time gathering
eggs, it won't take long for the
occupants to pay for their new
quarters.
Mr.. Hamil and his neighbor, Mr.
Shaw, have each completed a wood
en- silo, with a capacity of 81 tons
of ensilage. They expect to fiji
them full this summer. Julius
Giese of Fix ridge has an ensilag'
cutter which he runs with his ga
tractor. and will cut up the ensil
age for all of his neighbors.

Good Salad Dressing
important Now

Our home manager was noted for
her mayonnaise dressings. She ii
was who always furnished the salad
dressing for the church suppers and
took the premiums at the state fair
But alas, one day she was unable
to secure the accustomed results.
Her salad dressing separated and no
old and tried remedy availed. This
fact was brought to the attention
of a domestic science woman, who
at once began to inquire about the
materials used and the method of
making.
The oil was of the highest quality
and the eggs fresh, but it developed
that the home manager had been ac-
customed to another oil and felt
that she could not have success with
a new element in her formula.
The domestic science teacher
gave her the principles of making
the dressing, namely: Use all
quality product, have oil and egg
of uniform temperature. Place the
yolk of egg in the bowl, add the
mustard, pepper, salt and teaspoon
of lemon juice, beat Immediately
with a dover beater (never raise
up the beater from the bowl until
work is done). Add a small amount
of oil and beat until the mixture
is thick, then add few drops of
lemon juice or white vinegar to
thin-add more oil and repeat TIN
til all oil is used. The result was
as fine mayonnaise as she ever saw.
The secret is in learning to use the
best materials and then work con-
tinuously until the job is finished,
With these instructions the home
managers confidence was restored
and sre now makes the finest may
onnaise with no danger of failure.
Her results are always uniform and
her success assured.

rying off Ethel.
But, happily, modern conditions
have put an end to the painful pro-
cess Of auctioning off our daughters.
And with the world full OF oppor-
tunities for women, it is pretty
weak sort OF a sister who allows her
self to be married for home
The creditable modern girl mar
ries because she is in love and be-
cause a certain young man seems to
her a desirable life partner, not be-
cause the family wants to get her off
its hands. And this kind OF mar
riage is far more complimentary to
the man than the old-fashioned pig
in-a-poke business, where the young
man first proposes to the girls faith
er and mother, and if they accepted
him, then to the girl herself. And
the "blushing BRIDE" as she used
to be called, really married "a home
of her own" rather than a man she
loved.
How much better is the modern
way, where the union actually repre-
sents love, choice, congenlality OF
tastes and mutual desire to make
each other happy.
We will suppose case of two
young people working in the same
office and taking fancy to each
other. After a while they discover
that the fancy has tinged this grey
old world with a rainbow hue of ro-
nance. And again it is the garden
of Eden, while the apple trees are
still in blossom.
From this blissful dream the
young people awaken to the prac-
teal consideration of money. Can
they afford to marry? How much
is enough? Item by item they go
over the balance sheet of household
expenditures, they strike out the
superfluities and make a mark op-
posite what they just must have. But
happily these all-important questions
are now "up to them" 1t is entirely
their own affair. They do not have
to call in a family council as did
young people even couple of gen.
erations ago, and the girls father
and mother decided on the wholly
material things necessary to their
daughters happiness.
These good people did not waste
much time over the girls feelings,
or how she felt about her future
husband; the number of rooms in the
house to be provided was the thing,
and how much had been put by in
the bank.
But our modern young people,
consulting themselves, find that each
is making hundred dollars month

girl to give up her salary, because

By BEATRICE FAIRFAX,

Which is better, to marry for love
or money? That seems a strange
question to ask these days when
happiness and success is within the
grasp Of every woman.
And yet great many girls write
me letters saying they are deeply
in love with one man, but that a
second man with much better pros
poets is deeply in love with them
They do not care for this second
man; indeed, in a good many in
stances, he is even repulsive to them,
yet they want advice as to which
they would better marry?
There is usually postscript to
these letters saying that tine FAM
lilies of the writers are highly in ia
vor of the more prosperous match.
Such situation is entirely out of
key with the times.
Girls are no longer pawns in their
fathers households, charming, su-
perhuous creatures who used to sit
around and do little embroidery
while waiting for some man to take
them "off their fathers hands" That
was actually the phrase used, and no
one appeared to think it offensive or
degrading.
Until short time ago, a genera
ton or two perhaps, whole families
would be engaged in tragi-comedy
of getting daughter settled. Thack-
cray deals with this phrase of So
ciety in his own inimitable fashion
in, The Newcomes," where every

elegant and highly esteemed course
of conduct than to go into the home
of some more fortunate relative as q
poor relation.
Think of it, and this melancholy
choice of fates overlook her at the
age of rs, when the curtain rang
down on all the romantic possibili.
ties of a girls life.
You see the successful women OF
the day had to marry, there was
nothing else open to them, too many
girls at home cluttered up the pre-
vailing social system.
There is no reason why a girl
should fancy today that she is
obliged to marry merely for marry
ings sake. She marries because she
is in love and she can keep her JOB
and help to get the young man oi
her choice started and both, thank
Heaven. can work out their destiny
together.
The young man does not have tc
drink himself to death and the
young lady does not have to 60 into
a decline. Believe me, modern young
people have got a great deal to be
thankful for.
