EXPECTS HIGHER PRICES

Wellesley Mills, Mass. July %
When interviewing Roger w. BaDson
regarding the railroad and coal strikes
Mr.. Babson did not seem surprised
with recent developments. He pc
lieves that things are working out IN
a natural way and all interests are
doing the best they can with q BAD
situation. What seems to interest
Mr.. Babson most is the possible ef-
feet on prices in general following
the strike settlements. Discussing
this possibility he says:
.eThe strikes while in progress nat
urally put a general damper on Dusi-
ness. They have disheartenlng e1-
feet on producers, jobbers, and retail
ers. Wage earners have less to spend
and manufacturers are less Interested
in pushing their business. All OF this
tends to hold up trade in general. YET
during this period of strikes, people
are living, eating and dressing just
as if no strikes existed. Houses are
deteriorating, young folks are getting
married, children are being born'
clothes are wearing out, and mer-
chandise in general is being consum-
ed. If deterioration and consumption
were suspended during the depression

of labor strikes, then strikes might be
good for the country at times. I'm
fortunately, however, the deteriora-
tion and consumption goes on even tho
retail purchases decline.
sThis means that after strikes are
settled there is general rush to buy.
The wage earners when returning to
work again feel prosperous. They and
their families rush to the store and
purchase goods. The group OF IN
dustries which have been involved IN
the strike Immediately receive an av-
alanche of orders. They in turn feel
prosperous and order new machinery
and quantities Of supplies. This sud-
den increase in business from both
wage earners and employers is quick
" felt by the jobbers who In turn pour
in orders upon the manufacturers.

should not be surprised to see an IN

EASIER GOING IN
JUMP-OFF JOE WELL
Drill Makes % Feet in One Day After
Piercing Basalt-Water is
Encountered

There is joy in the camp of the
Packwood Land and Development
company. The drill in the well on the
slope of Jump-Off Joe is down 320
feet and working in soft shale with
80 feet of water in the well.
A stratum of hard basalt was pierc-
ed Tuesday and the following day a
depth of % feet was made into soft
blue shale. The striking of water was
as welcome as was the penetration of
the basalt, as hauling water for drill
ing purposes up the steep hillside can
now be discontinued.
Members of the local company are
elated with the log of the well and
are confident that gas will be struck
at even a lesser depth than in the
wells along the Rattlesnake.

SIX DOLLARS FOR
KENNEWICK APPLES
Mr.. Muldrow Finds Yellow Transpar-
ents Bringing Francy Price
in Canadian Town

Kennewick Yellow Transparent ap-
pies selling at $500 box in Myrtle
Creek, Alberta, is the report which w.
C. Muldrow, manager of the Columbia
Irrigation district, brings back from
a trip to Western Canada.
Mr.. Muldrow's attention was at
tracted by box Of Yellow Transpar-
ents in the show window of a small
Chinese grocery. Observing that the
box bore Kennewick label he in
quired the price, to which the oriental
replied: "Him cost too much money;
him too high; sell 'em Is cents pound,
too much" Mr.. Muldrow agreed with
the grocer but asked how much he
wanted for the whole box. The Chink
offered to sell for $3.50 but later drop
ped the price to $500.
Mr.. Muldrow protested that $500
was too much but the Chinaman JUS
tilted the price by saying that the box
of apples cost him $3.50 in Calgary
and 8 cents pound express to Myrtle
Creek. Which, if true, left the gro
Ger with but scant margin Of profit.
AS nearly as Mr.. Muldrow has been
able to ascertain the Kennewick
grower received $1.75, possibly $500
for the box.
Mr.. Muldrow was speaker at the
annual meeting Of the Western Ca
madam Irrigation association. His
subject was canal lining.

The Rev. Shaw's Automobile
Smashed by N. p. Pass
enger Train
HURLED FROM TRACK
MASS OF WRECKAGE
Driver Receives Cuts and
Bruises but Injuries are
Not Serious

The Rev. John A. Shaw, pastor of
the First Baptist church, who was in
jured Tuesday when a passenger
train demolished his automobile, was
reported today to be resting well with
his physician hopeful that no serious
complications will develop.
The Rev. Shaw had an almost es-
cape from instant death when N. p.
passenger train No. 3 ran down his
Ford sedan at Tacoma street shortly
after noon Tuesday. The pastor, who
is slightly deaf, did not hear the
alarm bells as he approached the rail-
road just as No. 8 was coming into
the station. He did not see the train
until the front wheels of his car were
almost upon the track. Seeking to
avoid collision he turned his car
sharply and headed it in the direction
the train was moving. He was un-
able to clear the main line on account
of the rails of side track.
The sedan was caught by the train
which was moving slowly and carried
along for several yards until it col
lided with steel switch stand. The
car was turned over and was hurled
several feet from the track a tangled
and twisted mass of wreckage.
The Rev. Shaw was removed from
the debris in an unconscious condition
but was soon revived by DR.. c. ID.
Hopper, who was at the station at the
time. After having received first aid
the injured man was taken to the
home of F. j. Arnold, where his in
juries were cared for by Doctors Hop
per and C. F. McCuskey. There were
several bad gashes and bruises on the
pastors head, but no bones were frac-
tured.
Mrs. Shaw and son, who have been
visiting in Seattle, returned home on
Wednesday and the Rev. Shaw was re-
moved later in the day to his own
home.
The automobile was caught by the
locomotive on the side of the fireman
who was busy at the time and the
engineer brought the train to stop
at the station without knowing there
had been a collision at the crossing.

WHO'S WHO AT
TOURIST PARK
Party Of Ten Travels from
Oklahoma in Ford with
out Repair Bill

Kennewick's new camping park at
the foot of Washington street is daily
becoming more papular with automo-
bile tourists. The two features which
are making the biggest hit with the
travellers is the greensward of alfal-
ia which renders the park exception
ally clean and the large screened din
ing room which shuts out the flies and
other bugs.
One of the most interesting parties
to put up at the camp this week was
Joe Wells and five children and Mr..
and Mrs. Abbott and two children, ten
in all, who are travelling in Ford
"Carry-All" made from a Ford ton
truck. The party left their home in
Watonga, Oklahoma, April 1S and
landed in Marysville, Washington on
May 16, just % days out. Three of
the carry-all's tires are still full of
Oklahoma air. The only fixin's have
been the cleaning of one spark plug
and the Tightening of fan belt. The
gas and oil bill amounts to $50. Mr..
Wells says they are in Washington
to stay and will locate either in the
Yakima valley or on the coast.
j. L. Kallorchs, wife and little
daughter of Bowling Green, KY,
stopped over night and hit the road
at 6 a. m. the following morning over
Horse Heaven to Portland by way
of Umatilla and the Columbia High
way. They are headed for California
where they expect to locate. They
have travelled $500 miles and stopped
in % auto camps. They report the
best camps at Frankfort, Indiana, and
Butte, Montana, and the best roads
in Washington. Mr.. Kallorchs says
crops look good in Montana, in fact
in all the states thru which he has
travelled excepting Indiana, which has
been hard hit by dry weather. They
averaged 139k miles from Bowling
Green to Spokane for every day they
travelled. They made 276 miles the
day they passed thru Chicago after
being held up by the stop and go
signs all thru the busy part of the
city.
Mr.. and Mrs. R. F. Malstrum are
looking for location and are not sure
but that Kennewick looks the best to
them Of any section they have seen.
Earl G. Preston, wife and daughter
of Seattle, are spending few days
here visiting their SON who is with
the steel gang on the new bridge. The
.Prestons have been on the road since
May, having toured western Washing
ton and Oregon and are now headed
for Omak, Wash. This is their first
visit to Kennewick and they are well
pleased with the country. This val
ley has the best crops, they say, they
have seen on their trip.
Mr.. and Mrs. Vern Hubbard and
two children of Seattle, are among
the campers. Mr.. Hubbard is here to
install the plumbing in the Big y

PROSSER WINS IN
thinning GAME
Extra Innings Required to Determine
Winner in sThree-to-Three
Exhibition

1t required eleven innings Sunday
to convince Kennewick baseball fans
that Prosser, has just a wee edge on
the locals when it comes to tighten
ing up in the pinches and showing men
around the diamond when runs are
most needed. With the exception of
here and there a soft spot it was
eleven innings of good ball with the
victory going to the team which was
entitled to it.
Kennewick started scoring in the
first inning and in the next frame
Prosser came back with one to their
credit. Kennewick scored one in the
fourth and another in the sixth and
until the seventh the score stood 8 to
1 in the locals favor. The visitors
put one more across in the seventh
and tied the score in the eighth when
Left Fielder Hooper failed to spear
an easy fly. There was nothing doing
in the ninth or tenth but in the first
of the eleventh Prosser slammed out
three hits and were handed bases on
errors, a combination Of which netted
three runs. Kennewick failed to score
in their half of the frame and the final
score was 6 to 3.
Pitching honors between Miller and
Siebert were even, each being touch
ed for hits. Until the eleventh in
ming Miller held the County Seaters
down to three scattered safeties. The
locals are black-marked with eight
errors to Prosser's six.
Next Sunday the first of three
game series with Pasco will be played
on the local diamond. This promises
to be one Of the liveliest battles of
the year with Pasco well represented
on the sidelines.
