HARVEST is NEARLY OVER
Ninety Per Cent of Apple Crop Will
be Off Trees by End of Week

From present indications Kenne-
wick's 1921 apple harvest will be one
of the most satisfactory in the his
tory of the district. 1t is estimated
that by the end of the week 80 per
cen of this years crop will be off the
trees and under shelter. Several
growers have finished picking and
packing but in few Of the larger or
chards and some of the smaller ones
who were late in starting the harvest
will extend over into next week.
Since the harvest started picking
has not been interrupted by storms
and the apples are going to market
or into storage in excellent condition.
The car shortage continues to worry
shippers. Today the N. p. was unable
to spot any cars and the O.-W. was
filling only about one-third of its or
ders. If, however, the shortage does
not become more acute shippers be-
lieve they will be able to keep enough
of the crop moving so as not tie up
operations in any of the packing hous-
es.

LOCALS LOSE AT
WALLA WALLA
Wa-Hi Eleven Shuts Out kenne-
wick Boys in Snappy Game
Sunnyside Here Next Week
(By Ronald warnock)

The Kennewick High school football
eleven lost to Walla Walla High school
last Friday by a score of 18 to 0. It
was a better game than the score
would indicate and Walla Walla was
forced to fight hard all the way thru.
The local boys were handicapped by
the absence of several first-string men
who were on the sick or ineligible list
but nevertheless they displayed a
fighting spirit to be proud Of.
A feature of the game was the good
physical condition of the local fellows
as it was not necessary to call time
for Kennewick man at any period of
the game. The referee was forced to
allow time for six Walla Walla men.
The work of Bass and Mattecheck,
ends, was highly commendable and
Rasmussen played good game at
center. Hawkins and Seward were our
most consistent ground gamers and
Witt succeeded in outpunting his husky
Hi-Wa opponent and several times put
the ball out Of danger.
Sunnyside comes here Friday, the
21st and with Capt. Waldorf back in
the game the team should emerge vic
torious. The fellows are drilling hard
for the first game at home and will
doubtless display to the home folks a
real old X. H. S. spirit.
Sunnyside is going good this year
and expect to annex an Orange and
Black scalp on the 21st. To say the
least, this is going to be real game
so lets see every one out helping to
give the fellows the necessary backing
to win over Sunnyside.

CAN CONDEMN
WATER RIGHTS
g. AT PROSSER
Judge Mills, of Walla Walla,
Holds that Kennewick Dis
trict can Take Water
THE WAY is NOW CLEARED
District Reaches Settlement with the
Prosser Milling Company-To
Condemn Other Rights

By virtue of a decision rendered
yesterday by Judge Edward c. Mills,
of Walla Walla, the Kennewick Irri-
cation district now has clear route
to the requirement Of the water rights
in the Yakima river at the Prosser
dam.
The action which was heard by
Judge Mills several months ago was
brought by the irrigation district to
determine whether or not under the
laws of this state water rights can
be condemned for irrigation purposes.
In his decision Judge Mills holds that
the irrigation district has that right
and it can now proceed with con-
demnation proceedings to acquire di-
version rights to the water passing
over the Prosser dam.
The rights there are held by Tay-
lor e. Kemp, owners of the Prosser
Flour mills, the Pacific Power & Light
company, and E. F. Benson. At the
time the irrigation district brought its
action the city of Prosser intervened
for the purpose of saving the rights
to that municipality for possible fu-
ture use. Judge Mills holds that hav-
ing no water rights, the city Of Pros
ser has no right of Intervention and
cannot stop the condemnation pro-
ceedings brought by the irrigation dis
trict.
M. M. Moulton, attorney for the dis
trict said today that from this point
requirement of the rights will be COM
paratively easy and predicted that the
proceedings would be wholly closed up
within thirty days.
A settlement has already been
agreed upon with the milling COM
pany in whom the major rights are
vested. This settlement was arrived
at in conference here last Thursday.
This leaves only the claims of the Pa
cific Power & Light company and E.
F. Benson to be disposed Of.
Measurements of the low water run
off at the Prosser dam show that
there is sufficient water to irrigate
two-thirds Of the $4,000 acres includ-
ed in the Kennewick project. A con-
tract for the purchase of additional
water from the government has been
entered into and the water will be
available from the Rimrock storage by
the time the demands of the project
exceed the supply available at Pros
ser.

ASK LOCAL LABOR
ON THE BRIDGE
Commercial Club Requests that
Preference be Given to Home
Workers When Work Starts

BY unanimous vote at yesterdays
luncheon the Kennewick Commercial
club formulated request to the direc-
tors of the Benton-Franklin Inter-
county Bridge company that insofar
as possible home labor be employed in
the construction of the bridge.
T While the bridge is to be built under
contract to the lowest bidder the To-
cal club asks that the directors use
thier influence with the successful bid
der to the end that preference be Civ
en- local labor.
In its communication the club calls
attention to the fact that the bridge is
to, be paid for in large measure with
the money of the citizens of eastern
Washington and the unemployment de-
mands of those communities which
contributed literally should have first
call upon the contractor.
Bids for the bridge are to be opened
in Walla Walla, Friday of this week
and in all probability the contract
will be let at that time. If this be
done work on the bridge should start
at time when hundreds of fruit and
other farm workers in this district
will be out of employment.
As a preliminary to letting the con-
tract the board of directors have called
for payment October Is the first stock
