That we might erect monuments to
their memory and eulogize their
deeds? Why are we here? Is it
merely to place these flowers on their
graves to be withered by the burning
sun, and straightway forget the ideals
for which they died? 1t Is not wrong
to erect monuments, but simple CEN
otaph like this is just as effective as
the costliest marble shaft that gold
could buy. 1t is for us the living to
perpetuate the principles they died
to preserve. Let us here resolve that
not only the nation they saw and loved
shall be preserved, but that a better
country than they ever dreamed of
shall arise and grander and nobler
nation shall be ours"
The whole program in the cemetery
was impressive and snappy, yet rever-
ent and far reaching.

KENNEWlCK TO
CELEBRATE 4TH.
Committee Reports that Major.
ity FavOrs Public Observance
of Nations Birthday

Following canvass of the business
section Commercial club committee
reported at Wednesdays luncheon that
Kennewick will celebrate.
The canvass revealed that, while
there is a general feeling that owing
the state of the community's finances
no large sum should be expended in
celebrating, the business men are will
ing to support the celebration both
morally and financially. 1t is argued
that for the most part people expect
and seek recreation on the Fourth and
inasmuch as under the alternating plan
between Kennewick and Pasco this is
Kennewick's year to celebrate it would
be inadvisable not to celebrate.
Guy ]. Hayden, who heads the Com
mercial club committee says that with
the measure of support which the mer-
chants have pledged it will be possible
to put on very satisfactory celebra-
ton. His associates on the commit
tee are r. E. Reed and B. E. Reser.
This trio will at once get busy out
lining program. The committee will
confer with committees Of the grange
and the farm bureau in the hope that
the farmers joint picnic can be made
one Of the features Of the program.

BASEBALL MANAGER
Seth Wilson and M. LaVera to Have
Charge of the Team Rest of
Season

Joe Barrett has resigned as mana
ger of the Kennewick baseball club
and d,,ring the remainder Of the sea-
son the team will be under the joint
management of Seth Wilson and M. La
Vera. These men will have full charge
Of the team but will be relieved of the
business details Of the club. The clubs
finances will be handled by p. J. Muir
ply and Ebert Mouda as joint chair
men of finance board.
The home boys have been playing
exceptionally good ball. The lineup
has been strengthened from time to
time and with the return this month
of several Kennewick boys who are
playing on northwest college teams
other weak spots will be overcome. In
spite of the fact that Kennewick has
yet to meet Sunnyside and Wapato.
the two fastest teams in the league,
they have an excellent chance to fin
ish the season close to the top of the
list.

THIS WEEK WILL BRING
BERRY SEASON TO CLOSE
Yield has Been Light and Quality
Poor Owing to Cold, Backward
Spring

The strawberry season which will
come to close this week has been one
Of the poorest in years. The yield has
been light, the quality poor, and the
total shipments from the Kennewick-
Richland district will not be much in
excess of 10000 crates, or about one
sixth the maximum shipments of for
mer years.
The small tonnage is due both to
reduced acreage and to light yield.
Favorable weather has prevailed dur
ing the picking season but the yield
and the quality was cut down by the
cold weather earlier in the season.
The closing price will be around $500.
The asparagus market has picked up
and a good supply of grass is going
out daily at S1.40 per crate.

CREAMERY HAS
NEW MANAGER
Nettleship is Succeeded by Dun
bar-Campaign for Funds
is Progressing

w. L. Nettleship has resigned as
manager Of the Kennewick Cooper
ative Creamery company and his place
has been taken by E. s. Dunbar, of
Seattle. The new manager recently
came to Kennewick and opened q
cream station for the Mutual Creamery
company by whom he was employed
as field superintendent. He has had
years of experience in the creamery
business.
Plans for the reorganization Of the
local creamery company are progress
ing satisfactorily and there is every
reason to believe that the institution
will soon be refinanced and put upon a
substantial operating basis.
While the campaign for sale Of stock
to Kennewick business men has not
been completed. Chairman L. E.
Johnson, of the Commercial club COM
mittee, reports that the business men
are making splendid response and
there is little doubt but that the goal
which has been set for the business
interests will be reached.
Representatives of the creamery
company have just started a canvass
of the dairy interests and no reports
on the results of this part Of the cam
paign are available at this time.

Kennewick Supply and Storage
Company Organized by Puy-
allup Companies
GEORGE D. PETERS MANAGER
Purchasers of Kennewick- -Richland
Marketing Union Plant Start
New Business

The Brew Mfg. company and the
Columbia Box and Veneer company,
both Of Puyallup, have organized a
new company known as the Kenne-
wick Supply and Storage company and
will operate the former plant of the
MISUNDERSTANDING Marketing Union
with George ID. Peters, of this city, as
manager. q
The two Puyallup companies, who
are manufacturers of all kinds Of
fruit containers and marketing sup
plies, bought the local plant at the
recent sheriff's sale. While the pur-
chase was made primarily for the
purpose of protecting their outstand-
ings with the Marketing Union, a care
full survey Of the fruit industry con-
vinced the heads Of the companies
that there is an excellent opening here
for permanent fruit storage and
packing plant. The Brew Mfg. COM
pany has for some time planned to es-
tablish large cold storage plant in
Yakima. Closer study Of the market
ing situation, however, led Mr.. Brew
to believe that Kennewick is a better
location for such a plant than is Yak
lima. 1t is the intention Of him and
his associates to utilize the Marketing
Union plant as the first unit of one
Of the largest commercial storages in
the Yakima valley.
The new company will be operated
as distributors for the products of
the two parent companies and will
also carry complete line of other
orchard supplies not manufactured by
these companies. It's principal busi-
ness, however will be the packing and
storage Of apples on contract basis.
1t enters the field prepared to finance
the handling of the fruit crops from
the time they are picked until they are
ready to roll to market. The COM
pany will receive the growers fruit as
it comes from the orchard, grade it,
pack it, and store it until it has been
sold, but it will not engage in the
business of marketing.
Mr.. Peters, abe manager, is well
equipped by experience to handle the
details of his new job. Before coming
to Kennewick he was engaged in the
cold storage business and for the last
ten years he has been growing fruit
on an extensive scale on the Kenne-
wick Highlands.

END OF BRIDGE
DRIVE In SIGHT
Kennewick and Pasco Raises Ad-
ditiOnal S15, ,000-Walla Wal
la to Raise Balance

The citizens of Kennewick and Pas
co, who had already subscribed more
than one hundred thousand dollars to
the Columbia River bridge project,
have increased their subscriptions by
another fifteen thousand dollars with
the understanding that this last S15,-
600 is to build the bridge.
Last week the Union Trust COM
pany, of Walla Walla, custodian of the
funds, served notice on the directors
of the bridge company that unless
the full amount of 100000 had been
subscribed by June first all former
subscriptions would be returned and
the effort would be killed. The Walla
Walla committee then made the prop
osition that if Kennewick and Pasco
would raise $4,000 more Walla Walla
would raise the balance.
A Pasco committee Friday after
noon raised $4,000 and the following
day a Kennewick committee raised
$1,000 and it is now up to Walla Wal
la.
Every community represented in
the campaign has been ordered to
send in their subscriptions to the
Union Trust company for checking.
This check will probably not be COM
pleted until the end of this week or
the first of next.
When this has been done Walla Wal
la will undertake to bring the fund up
to 100000.

CHLORINE PLANT .
NOW INSTALLED
Kennewick's Water Supply Now
Comes to Homes Free from
r. Disease Germs

Kennewick's domestic water supply
is now fortified against bugs. The
Pacific Power & Light company has
completed the installation of mod
ern chlorine gas treating basin at the
domestic pumping plant and the wat
er as it now comes to the homes is free
from impurities.
The treating plant is Of the most
modern type and is the kind that many
larger cities are installing to take
the place Of former methods of puri-
fication. 1t is not the same kind of
plant that was in use in Yakima sew
eral years ago and concerning which
much complaint was made.
Local Manager Stafford explains
that with the new apparatus it is alb
solutely impossible for any free chlor-
inc to be carried in the water supply.
Only two and half pounds of chlor-
inc gas is used to one million gallons
of water. This is sufficient to kill
all germs. As soon as the gas enters
the water it unites with the organic
matter and forms chlorine salts.
The amount of this salts carried in
200 gallons Of water is about the
same as the chlorine salts contained
in enough common table salt to season
the ordinary meal.
This treatment leaves the water
without the least trace of free chlorine
either in odor, taste or by analysis.
