KENNEWICK DROPS GAME
TO SUNNYSIDE SUNDAY
Batting Rally in Eighth Ties Score but
Visitors Swat Ball in the
Ninth

Kennewick slid little farther down
the ladder of base ball fame Sunday
when they lost to Sunnyside 10 to z.
The visitors took the lead in the early
innings and were leading z to 3 when
Kennewick came to bat in the last half
of the eighth. A tumble by Sunny
sides shortstop and some timely hit
ting chased in four runs and tied the
score. I
In their half of the ninth the Sunny
siders landed hard on Kirkpatrick and
drove in three more runs. Kennewick
was unable to con meet in the ninth.
Kennewick plays in Grandview Sum-
day. Unless the Kennewick-T Topper

fects the standing of these two clubs
Sundays game will be the last one Of
the season.

PEAR PICKING
HAS STARTED
Growers of Kennewick- -Richland
District will Harvest Good
Crop This Year

Pear harvest is on. BY the end OF
next week the bulk of Kennewick's
1921 pear crop will be on the way to
market. Members of the Kennewick-
Richland Fruit Growers company and
some of the independents began pick
ing several days ago while the Big 7
growers will start their picking Mon-
day.
On the whole the crop outlook is
good. The yield will be good and in
dications are that the entire crop will
be marketed at satisfactory prices.
Cash buyers are offering to contract
at approximately $S5 ton.
C. H. Swigart, manager Of the Yak
ina Valley Fruit Growers association,
who was in Kennewick yesterday, said
the growers of the Kennewick-Rich-
land district will harvest heavier
crop than the upper valley.

CREAMERY MUST !
HAVE MORE Cash
Additional Five Hundred will
Enable 1t to Operate Until
Stock is Sold

IF the Kennewick Cooperative
Creamery continues to operate it must
have more money. This was decided at
meeting of the board of directors
Tuesday, when the returns Of the re-
cent re-financing campaign were
checked.
Regarding the present condition OF
the creamery Manager Dunbar has is
sued the following statement:
"The directors decided after careful
ly going over bills payable and bills
receivable that it is necessary to
have considerable more money before
the creamery will be in a financial
condition to meet all obligations, but
by raising $500.00 more we can pay all
cream patrons in full, and make a
small payment on outstanding bills.
This $500.00 is partially promised, and
must be raised within the next week.
1t will then be necessary to continue
the sale of stock until such time as
we have secured at least 100000 in
ALL.
GAIL we can say further at the pres
ent time is that the success of the
Kennewick COOPERATIVE Creamery de-
pends upon the earnest support and

BOYS GET BODY s.
49,. AND $1OO REWARD
Three Local Lads Recover Body
of j. A. Hughes Drowned at
Wahluke Ferry

Deputy Sheriff C. E. Copeland yes
terday paid 500 to Robert Christen-
sen, Elmer Martin and Delmar Aelu-
son, the three boys who Sunday recov-
cred the body of j. A. Hughes drowned
at Wahluke ferry, July 1s. The 500
was offered as reward for the recov-
cry of the body by A. j. Sax, of Corfu,
foreman of the fruit ranch where
Hughes was employed as expert hor-
ticulturist by the Denver & Rio Grande
railway.
The body floating in mid-stream was
first sighted by Chris Christensen
from his door-yard on the river shore.
His son, Robert, in company with the
other boys, hastened along the river
bank until they came to the L. Smith
piece where they secured row-boat
and towed the body ashore, and mott
fled Deputy Copeland.
The body was taken charge Of by
Sheriff Rolph who was accompanied
by Undertaken VIM. Guernsey and Col
Baker, acting coroner. Although bad.
ly bloated and bruised the body was
aesily identified by Mr.. Sax who came
from White Bluffs where he has been
dynamiting the river since the acci-
dent, by VIM. Engels, who drove the
ill-fated automobile, and by the dead
mans mother and sister, who were en-
route to Corfu from their home in
Burkeville, Va, when the accident oc-
Cured.
The body was taken to Prosser for
preparation for burial and will be
shipped today to the Virginia home.

TAX MEETINGS
ARE SUCCESSFUL
Farmers are not in Favor of Do
ing Without County Agent,
Leader or Nurse

According to County Commissioners
R. E. Pratt and s. j. Harrison, the
series of taxation meetings being held
in the rural communities are disclosing
the fact that while the farmers are
finding taxation rather burdensome,
for the most part they are unwilling
that any of the functions of county
government be eliminated. -s...-
At each meeting the question of dis
continuing the office of county agent,
boys and girls club leader, or county
nurse is put to the farmers. ..
At every meeting there are some
who aregue in favor of dispensing
with the services of one or all of these
the vote invariably shows an over
whelming majority in keeping them all.
This sentiment indicates, the commits
sioners say, that good work is being
done by these agencies.
The commissioners explain that ap-
proximately two-thirds of all taxation
is for state and school purposes and
does not come within the control of the
commissioners. The bulk of the re-
manning one-third is for roads. Wheth-
er or not the county's road building
program will be curtailed will depend
very largely upon the sentiment of the
farming communities as the commits
sioners are able to determine it from
these meetings.
Generally the farmers are Of the
opinion that the expense of county gov
eminent can be cut down some by re-
duction in the salary and wages paid
county employees. Wages of road
workers have already been reduced and
it is probable that salaries of clerks
will be cut next year.
The tax meetings have been well
attended and harmonious.

RESCUING FISH
FROM POTHOLES
State Game Fish Commission is
SEEMING Minnows from Land
Locked Ponds

j. w. Kinney, state game and game
fish commissioner, has a crew Of men
at work salvaging the annual crop of
fry from the land-locked ponds on the
flats near the mouth of the Yakima
river. County Game Warden Brown is
assisting in the work.
In years past millions of bass, crop
py, and catfish minnows have been left
to die on these flats. The flood stage
Of the Columbia comes during the
spawning season and the little fish are
Matched in the quiet waters of the
flooded flats. As the waters recede
millions of minnows are trapped in the
potholes which dry up in midsummer.
This year for the first time these pot
holes are being seined and the min
nows rescued. $50 .fa'.s q
The smaller of the fry are released
in the Yakima river while the stronger
ones are sorted and shipped for stock
ing lakes and streams in other parts
of the state. A sorting tank has been
installed in the little park west Of the
Hotel Kennewick. Here the carp are
culled out and the game varieties sep
arated.
The workers are getting excellent
results with the bass and catfish but
thousands of the croppies are too weak
to stand the seining and die. This
morning can containing 1000 vigor-
GUS bass and another Of 1000 catfish
were ready for shipment to Whitman
county.
Commissioner Kinney, who was in
Kennewick the first of the week, says
that this is the greatest bass Matching
grounds in the state and predicts that
a state bass hatchery will be estab-
.lished here. In return for the minnows
shipped from here the commission will
stock the lower Yakima, and possibly
some of its ponds and lakes, with
perch, sun-fish and trout.
The commissioner says the state is
ready to seine the carp out of Van
Horn lake, clean the bed and stock it
with game fish as soon as the owners
give assurance that the lake will be
maintained as public fishing ground.

PETITIONS FOR IA
RECALL STARTED
TAYLOR and Stockdale Begin Cir
culati0n in Hanf0rd- White
Bluffs District

The committee in charge of the cam
paign to recall County Commissioner
r. E. Pratt have started the circula-
tion of petitions to secure the neces-
sary number of signers to call the
election. The law provides that the
petitions be signed by 35 per cent of
the county's registered voters as
shown by the total vote at the last
general election. The total required
is approximately 1900 names.
AS yet no petition circulators have
made their appearance in Kennewick.
The start has evidently been made in
the Hanford- White Bluffs district
where E. w. R. Taylor and T. ]. Stock
dale, of Prosser, have been campaign
ing this week.
The recall committee, of which Mr..
Taylor is chairman, has issued the
following public statement:
"As is generally known, the recall
of County Commissioner Pratt starts
this week. 1t has not and will not
be our policy to burden the newspa-
pers to any extent in this contro-
versy.
eve have prepared neat booklet
which will be mailed to every family.
1t contains a concise statement Of the
grand jury findings and also of the
state auditing department.
"These facts tell their own story,
therefore no comment is necessary.
Other than that, the recall has not
been brought through any spirit of
personal grudge toward any member
of the commission board.
at has been brought because we,
like the average voter, were firmly
convinced that the commissioners
were either incompetent or dishonest,
and that the interests of the taxpay-
ers and good government they should
be asked to get out.
"They have all resigned except Mr.
Pratt, who in. the judgment of many,
is the worst offender of the three.
"He is still determined to force his
services on the people, therefore we
are forced to do, what the law con-
templates in such cases-remove him
from office by the orderly process OF
recall. XII =-..--- -- S
"As to his threats of suits against
us who filed the charges, we respect
fully refer the public to letter from
our attorney, Mr.. Snively, which ap-
pears below: -
" My Dear Mr.. Taylor: -
Replying to your favor Of July
10th, enclosing a newspaper article
threatening to bring suit against the
recall committee, have to advise you
that you need have no fear from this
source. Your action is privileged
and is the same as any court proceed
ings. Public policy, in other words,

charges against public officer so do
