DOCTOR PROBABLY
FATALLY INJURED
DR.. Cropp, of Walla Walla, Hit
by Car Driven by Carl Tim
norman of Richland

DR.. Cropp, of Walla Walla, was
probably fatally injured last night
about ten o'clock by being hit by a
car driven towards Richland by Carl
Zimmerman of that place. The in
jured man sustained fracture of the
skull at the base of the brain, and
had not recovered consciousness at
noon today when he was removed to
his home in Walla Walla.
The doctor was driving towards
Kennewick and had reached the Gram
mer place couple of miles west of
town, when something became the
matter with the gas supply. The car
stopped in the middle of the road and
the doctor got out to investigate the
supply at the rear. The Zimmerman
car slowed down to pass, but hit the
open door of the doctors car. AT
almost the same instant the doctor
stepped from behind his car, directly
in the path of the one passing. He
was hit with sufficient force to cause
his head Ito hit the road hard
enough to fracture the skull.
The injured man was at once taken
to the DR.. Crosby residence, where he
was kept until noon today, when he
was removed to his home by Drs.
Keylor and Stiles, who came over for
that purpose. Mrs. Cropp and daugh-
ter accompanied them.
DR.. Cropp is 67 years of age and
has practiced in Walla Walla for
many years, where he conducts a hos

SCHOOL ELECTION
Is CALLED AGAIN
Voters will be Asked to Author
ize Six Mill Levy Friday,
f. August 18th ." l.

The special school election recently
called off because it was thought that
a law passed by the last Legislature
rendered it illegal, has been calle
on again. -, 4
In recent ruling the attorney gen
eral holds that only school districts
of the first-class, within the boundar-
les of port district are affected by
the new law.
The new date for the election is
Friday, August 18th. The polls will be
open from p. m. until p. m. in the
high school building. .." -
At the election voters Of the dis
trict will be asked to authorize an ad-
ditional levy of 6 mills to meet the
necessary expenses of the coming
school year.
District Clerk F. L. Fraser explains
that in the event the levy fails the
only place where the board can con-
troll expenses is in the item of trans
portation. The motor busses which
haul the country children to and from
school will have to be discontinued.

TAKES GRANDVIEW TEN
INNINGS TO BEAT US
Toppenish Wants Morning Game
Sunday-League Leaders to Play
: ~ Post-Season Series

1t took Grandview ten inning to win
the last scheduled game in the Valley
league last Sunday, with five-four
score. The hosts played in luck, as
the game belonged to Kennewick all
through, SO far as playing was con-
cerned. An attempted double play, in
which a thrown ball hit runner
bouncing off into the weeds, netted the
Grandview team three runs in the third
inning. r.. .---..
Next Sunday, the game, if there is
one, will be played in the morning, as
Toppenish has asked that date for the
deciding of the contested game earlier
in the season. Toppenish also has
a play-over to play with Pasco sched-
uled for the afternoon. If they win
both games they will tie with Wapato
for first place. Much feeling is rife
among the fans of the two leading
towns and a post-season schedule is
being planned to decide the Valley
championship. .

PRODUCE COMPANY !.
NEWS SUSPENDED
Spokane Merchants Association
Orders Novel Advertisement
Discontinued .

With this issue of The Courier-Re-
porter "The Produce Company News"
which for the past eighteen months
has been published as the back page
of The Courier-Reporter, suspends
publication. ....- ....
The suspension of this bright and
newsy trade sheet is not voluntary but
it is part Of the retrenchment pro-
gram inaugurated by the Spokane
Merchants Association.
Edited by Mr.. and Mrs. v. o. Price,
"The Produce Company News" was
one of the most novel and effective
means of advertising ever attempted
by a mercantile firm in the Northwest.
Not only was it an effective advertis-
ing medium for the Produce Company
but it has turned toward Kennewick
as trading center, the eyes of scores
of people, not only of this county, but
of Alfalfa, Two Rivers, and Wallula,
in Walla Walla county and Pasco,
Connell, Kahlotus, Washtucna, and
Snake River Junction, in Franklin
county. It has been more than busi-
ness builder for the Produce Com
pany, but community builder. There
isn't mercantile establishment in
Kennewick but that has profited thru
the publication of the little trade
"newspaper," and above all it has
been a truly readable and interesting
feature of The Courier Reporter.
Few firms anywhere have a larger
percentage of satisfied and loyal Gus
toners than has the Produce Company
and in no small measure this feeling
of general good will is due to the
weekly chat of the editor of the "Pro-
duce Company News" with his Gus
toners. .,s,... -

POULTRY MARKET
TO OPEN SOON
Pioneer POultryman of Valley to
Start New Business
Venture

Kennewick is to have a new indus
try, within the next couple of weeks,
when c. c. Cantwell, of the Valley,
will erect on the river front poultry
market.
When interviewed regarding the new
enterprise, Mr.. Cantwell said: "Rea-
lizing the necessity Of saving every
cent possible to the poultrymen Of the
Valley and surrounding country, am
fostering another stunt for the ad-
vancement Of the industry. In times
past I have tried to arouse enthus-
iasm and suggested to others the
necessity Of such an institution, but
failing will put the plant in operation
myself.
sour chicken men will welcome this
new industry with open arms, I am
sure, as it will mean the saving Of a
great many dollars to the Valley, and
will eliminate the necessity of ship
ping chickens out Of the Valley in open
coops, thus curtailing the heavy ex-
pense of live shipments by express
and the great loss by shrinkage in
transit.
"I've got the lumber on the ground
now and will be busy the rest Of the
week putting up the buildings and as
soon as they are up will go to Walla
Walla to get the machinery. ] hope to
have the plant ready for business in
two weeks.
"My son, Kith, will be associated
with me in the enterprise and will
handle the business in general, over
seeing the fattening pens, receiving
weighing and attending to the slaugh-
tering, while / will manage and fl,
nance the business. E
"We're going to try to lift the STAN
dard of prices, as figure we can pay
from three to six cents more per
pound than has been offered here in
the past. And, better yet, as the
business gets upon firmer founda-
tion, with established markets, the
chances are that we can do even bet
ter than that, as we propose to event.
ually put all birds upon a special
milk fattening diet before slaughter
ing, and by this practice will be able
to top the markets, and this will re-
fleet upon the paying prices.
'"You might be doing some of the
poultry raisers good turn by telling
'em to hold their birds couple of
weeks until we get a-going, as the in
crease in price we will offer will pay
