DID YOU GET YOUR
SHARE OF ICE CREAM

Did You get So dishes Of ice cream
last year?
That was your share of the ice
cream made in Wisconsin.
Dairy manufacturers at the College
of Agriculture report that enough ice
cream was made in Wisconsin in 1921
to give two and oRe-fourth gallons
to every man, woman and child living
in the Badger state. This would mean
about So dishes apiece. A total of g.
950,556 gallons were manufactured in
Wisconsin alone and 216,569,212 gal
Ions were frozen in the entire nation
during the same period.
&c cream manufacture is on the in
crease declare authorities. Reports
compiled by the Dairy and Food Com
mission biennially show that the ice
cream output of the Badger state has
practically doubled every two years
during the last 10 years
ice cream is regarded more as a
food now than it used to be-" says j..
L. Sammis of the dairy department
OF the University of Wisconsin. Time
was when the frozen cream product
was eaten largely as a delicacy. AL
though this idea still persists to a GER
tain degree, its value as a food is
rapidly gaining recognition. Ice cream
is a regular prescribed article Of diet
in the kitchens o. many hospitals to-
day"
Three-fourths OF the trade comes in
the months Of juno, July, August,
September and October. The industry
was valued at $6,166, 325.O0 in Wiscon-
sin during 1921.

NINE MAKE BID FOR
BLEWETT PASS WORK

Portland, June 10.-Nine bids were
received for Blewett Pass work yes
terday here Chas. T. Jordan, Seattle,
bid approximately $4,000 while
Grant Smith and Company of Seattle
and Portland bid approximately $163,
900.
The contract to be let by the L. S.
Forest Service includes the regarding
and surfacing of nearly 20 miles of
the Blewett Pass route between
Mountain Home and Liberty on the
Kittitas county side. In some places
an entirely new route will be laid out
and it is the plan to keep the old road
open while the work is in progress.
A total of 100000 was appropri-
ated for this work which includes en-
gineering, inspection, etc When it is
completed and when Chelan county
finishes the work now completed on
the Peshastin Creek side, there will
be good, well surfaced wide road
with no steep grades or sharp turns,
all the way over Blewett Pass.

PARK LANDS GOING FAST.

F. r. Tyler, colonization agent Of
the Wenatchee Park lands, is selling
the lands rapidly, five twenty-acre
tracts going last week and a party Of
five were taken out Tuesday morn
ing. Mr.. Tyler says that every acre
of the lands will be sold before fall,
and this is not surprising in view of
the great possibilities for stock and
agricultural farming throughout this
whole section of the state, where wat
er for irrigation is available every
season and beside which nothing but
work and seed is required to produce
sbundant crops every year.
As the facts of the possibilities OF
Western Chelan county become better
known people will continue to come
here and it will be a matter of only a
few years until every acre of arabic
land will be owned by someone who
wants to establish home, for if the
people who are endeavoring TO live N
the sagebrush country come out here
and put in the same amount of work
and live as economically as they have
had to there, a few years will see
them independently situated, for man.
agement with work is all that is re-
CURED to insure seasonable produc-
tion.

WATER SYSTEM IMPROVEMENT
ABOUT COMPLETED.

The installation of the new 14-inch
water main was completed last week
and the water from the Icicle again
turned in. The crew has since been
working on the 10-inch main which
forks from the old line at the head of
the Harding line and comes in viaethe
"red" bridge and the Great Northern
Lumber Company's yard, giving US
two 10-inch mains from the Harding
lane into town, which will be fed by
the 14-inch pipe from the intake down
to the lane.
With the improvement to the sys-
TEN we ought to have plenty Of wat
er at all times for all purposes, but
there still remains one weak feature
of the system and that is that the in
take is not such that II can at all
times be relied upon. and it ought to
be made right This improvement,
however. may have to be deferred an
other year.

TO STERILIZE
DRINKING WATER.

L. V. Simpson, of the state board
of health, accompanied by the county

Tuesday They recommended the
sterilization of all water used for
drinking purposes until such time as
the Icicle river water is again perma-
nentyl turned into the mains.
The following directions for steriliz-
ing drinking water are given by the
Washington State Department of
Health:
Procure from any grocer small
can of CHLORINATED LIME (also
known as bleaching powder-bleach-
chloride of lime).
Prepare a solution by thoroughly
dissolving ONE HALF TEASPOON
FULL chlorinated lime into ONE
PINT of water.
To remain efficient this solution
must be kept in a COOL and DARK
place, in bottle TIGHTLY CORKED
preferably a GLASS STOPPERED
one).
To sterilize water, use
ONE TABLESPOON FULL of the
solution to TEN GALLONS of drink
ing water, or
THIRTY SIX DROPS of solution to
ONE GALLON or drinking water or
NINE DROPS to ONE QUART OF
drinking water.
Mix thoroughly and let stand al
least fifteen minutes before drinking

THINNING
TIME is HERE
ONCE MORE

Apples at this time seem to be
equally as large if not larger than
same date last year.
In some instances, apples this sea-
son have thinned themselves to a GER
tain extent, but in most all orchards
the trees will have to be gone over and
limbs that are too heavy with fruit.
should be lightened up. In some
cases the bloom died off for some
cause, leaving just the center apple in
a spur cluster, but in cases there are
too many spurs still holding apples
for those limbs to carry through, and
still make big apples and leave vital
ity enough in the tree for another
crop next year. Then on the other
hand, where a limb as thick as your
thumb has only three or four apples
left on, and these apples are all in a
space of a foot or Is inches, nothing
would be gained by cutting off two out
of the four, just for the sake of max
ing them come a specified distance
apart, say. eight inches. as a limb
this diameter is capable of carrying
and feeding more than the original
four apples which are there. and
would besides develop many idle
spurs which would be getting suffic-
lent strength for next year.
AS well as figuring distance apart
for spacing your apples, also figure
wood diameter and what a limb would
be able to carry without sapping the
strength of that limb.
Apples should be thinned one to a
spur, unless it be Rome Beauty,
where the trees are light with fruit,
may be left two to a spur, as they
are long stemmed apple and will
not crowd each other off. In "worrny
orchards" they should be one to
spur, so that the spray can go around
the whole diameter of each apple, as
worms like to start in where the two
apples touch.
Apples with yellow stems will fall:
those with the heavy dark green
stems will stick. It is now easy to de-
termine which are going to stick. The
earlier we thin now. the more chance
for size the permanent apples are go.
ing to get, and the more strength the
tree is going to maintain to produce
strong fruit spurs for the next crop.
In very few cases this season.
where trees had a good strong fruit
spur and tree vitality was high, did
the trees fail to set a crop, frost be-
ing equal to all. The heaviest drop
was on trees that have never had a
cover crop on the ground or orchards
which were just planted to cover crop
recently, and have never been fertil-
lied. The fertilizing our orchards in
past year or two has proved wonder
full results to our tree growth and
god crops. Be careful when thinning
not to break the fruit spurs. by pull
ing on them, or by slammrg ladders
into the trees. 1t pays to thin your
trees for two reasons: to get larger
apples, and to form a strong spur
growth on the tree each 1ea1 for fu-
ture crops.
We need thinners who will do a
good honest days work. 1t is not hard
work but the person who thins must
have the interest of the grower, and
thin not just for the sake of getting
in the hours, but to make a bigger
and better crop, which will benefit all
fruit workers in months to follow.
