SNAKES TAPPED FOR VENOM.
Poison to Be Sent to Brazil Which
Needs Serum.

Once a week for several months to
come the thirty-three copperheads
and water moccasins at the Bronx Zoo
will continue to be robbed of their
venom for anti-snakebite serum, in
order to furnish a large quantity OF
material for DR.. Afanio Amaral, the
Brazilian scientist and serum investi-
gator, who is now doing research
work at the Harvard Medical school,
says the New York Telegram.
Later copperheads and water
moccasins may be sent to the great
snake house at Butantan, Brazil,
where reptiles from all parts of the
world are kept in magnificent gard
en- for purposes of study and for the
production of serum.
Both serum to cure snake bites and
vaccine to immunize against snake
poison are manufactured there at the
anti-venom therapeutic institution.
After being squeezed dry Of poison,
it takes week for a copperhead or
maccasin to collect new supply, so
that it will require several months be-
fore the thirty-three snakes will have
furnished an adequate supply of VEN
ON.
A stable of horses, which are used
in developing the serum, and a men
agerie Of animals which are used in
experiments to obtain effective anti
toxins, are maintained at Butantan in
connection with the great snake gar
dens.
One Of the strange things about oD-
tanning serum as that the horse used
thrives under the injection of venom,
when it is cautiously administered.
Eventually the horse becomes an ad-
dict and his constitution demands reg
ular doses of snake poison.

AVOIDS STREET WIDENING
PROBLEMS
If the original planners OF Ham
mond had had the vision to lay out
but one north and south and but
one east and west street along the
lines OF this project the city would
not now be contemplating the ex-
penditure OF a million dollars to
widen streets.
Study the cross sectional view OF
the boulevard in the sketch accom-
panying this article. See how this
boulevard may be developed gradu-
ally on the unit plan as traffic
needs require
Take note of these possible stages
OF development OF the boulevard
1. The entire right of way must
be dedicated now while land is
cheap and while building improve
ment are few.
2. The first step will be the paw
ing OF the driveways shown in the
cross section with concrete. in the
position indicated on the plan. The
pavement being slightly higher at
the parkway than at the curb

of the street demand a wider pave

will become the crown OF the street.

have a pavement 76 feet wide which
is sufficient for the following. A

Hammond is about to realize its
ambition to have a real boulevard.
Not merely an ordinary street from
which trucks are excluded but a
thoroughfare de luxe, to be embel-
ished with trees and shrubs and
lined with grass plots.
This magnificent thoroughfare
IS to be one of the contributions of
the Dan Brown administration to
the great city building program of
the next four years. 1t Is to be liz
feet wide and will be characterized
by double roadway with a 2S-foot
parkway in the center. THE NEW
BOULEVARD Is STANDARD AVE-
NUE..
1t is so close to realization that
Indiana-Illinois safe line and Cal

the necessary width for over half
of the distance between the above
named points.
REAL ESTATE FIRMS HELP.
The cooperation OF two OF Ham
mond's largest real estate firms.
Meyn & Hastings have made the
success of the project assured.
In planning the South View addi-
tion several years ago Roscoe K.
Woods made the first dedication to
the 112 foot width between the
state line and Holman street. The
project remained In a ouiescent
state for some time until Woods
organized the Madison Terrace
Realty Company and took over the
forty acres owned by Claudia
Schneider Mueller and laid out Mad
ison Terrace.
This gave him a chance to make
dedications OF a quarter Of q mile
of frontage additionally. and left
only the frontage between Holman
street and Jackson street to be Sc
cured to the additional width

The Hammond city administration
has said that Standard blvd. Is to

tate interests of the city are back

The plan is under consideration
by the officials OF the Standard

to make a dedication along the en-
tire south side of It's plant site
There can be no question as to the
final decision. however. for the rea-
son that IL VIII greatly increase the
accessibility to the plant from the

labor market of the region Is to be
located.
1t is understood that the plan is
highly acceptable to the industries
that have located south of the
Standard Steel Car plant in the new

promising so much for Hammond

Just at this time the firm OF Cost

the representation of the owners
of all the acreage south Of the
Standard Steel Car plant from the
Erie railroad and Columbia avenue

William J. Hastings interested
his associates IN the project with
the result that a dedication has
been virtually promised for a whole
mile and a quarter of the distance

In fact it was this dedication that

WALLA WALLA
HELD TO TIE
Kennewick Football Team
Divides Honors With
Larger School

On their home grounds last Fri
day the Kennewick High School
football team held the fast Walla
Walla High eleven down to a z
to tie. AS was the score SO
was the game, close hard fought
battle from start to finish. Neither
team was able to make consistent
gains against their opponents de-
fense and each's touchdown was
made on completed forward pass.
The play on both sides showed
up weaknesses which will un-
doubtedly be overcome as the sea-
son advances. Kennewick lost
two excellent chances to score
by costly fumbles and Walla WaIla
twice put their goal in danger by
blocked punts.
The one department of the game
in which, the local team easily ex-
celled was that of punting. Howard
Beste, a recruit from last years
second team, who is playing a
guard position demonstrated that
he has a kicking toe that may win
him a reputation before his college
days are over. Kennewick too
showed up better in forward pass
ing but were excelled on through
tackles and end plays.
In the first quarter honors were
about even with neither team be-
ing able to keep possession of the
ball long. In the second quarter
Walla walla whipped off for
ward pass which netted a touch
down.
The third quarter was Kenne-
wick's, the play being in Walla
Walla territory most of the time.
Near the end of the quarter Kenne-
wick blocked a punt, carried the
ball to within five yards Of the
goal line when forward pass
from Frazer to Witt completed the
work and tied the score.
Coach Zimmerman who has the
advantage of large squad and
two complete backfields began to
shoot fresh men onto the field dur
ing the last quarter and Kenne-
wick who finished the game with
their original lineup was put on
the defensive throughout the
quarter. The local boys, how
ever, showed a splendid fighting
spirit and kept their goal line from
being crossed second time.

by as soon as possible without loss
to yourself, call up promptly and
have the water turned off so that
we can close the head gates. Stop
the expense and get as much clean

The district office would like to
hear from those who can put their

which will mean some time be-
tween October % and November

season. We wish, if possible to
get all the work above Kennewick

to hit the ball and work as hard
as you would for yourself, that is
what you are doing. You want to
keep down the taxes and the only
way that can be done is to keep
down the costs of doing the Dis

FRUIT CASE
DECIDED
Grower Restrained From
Marketing Except
Through Agency

Judge John Truax of the su.
perior court yesterday made per-
manent an injunction against S.
v. Nordwall restraining him from
marketing his fruit crop by any
means except through the agency
of the Kennewick- -Richland Fruit
Growers company.
The case is of considerable interest
to those who are interested in the
growing and marketing of fruit as
it is the first test that has been
made of the legality of the cun-
tracts between local cooperative
marketing agencies and their
members.
The court holds that the contract
is far and equitable and that while
the marketing agency cannot COM
pei Mr.. Nordwall to deliver his
fruit to it he is restrained from
marketing it elsewhere. Judge
Truax based his decision upon the
holdings of the state supreme court
in the Washington Cranberry as
sociation's case.
Moulton & Jeffrey assisted by
Mr.. Adams of Kerr & McCord of
Seattle, appeared for the plaintiff
and Phil G. Warnock for the de-
fendant.

at This Season

In answer to numerous inquiries
as to when the water is to be turn
ed off in the canals of the Colum.
bia Irrigation district, Manager
w. C. Muldrow has issued the fol.
lowing statement:
OF course, it is desirable, from
the standpoint Of economy in op-
Grating the system, that the water
be turned out as early as possible
Still, the canal is being run fol
the benefit of the farmers and
water should be carried as long as
it is really needed.
In practice, a great deal OF
harmful waste of water always oc-
ours at this season from careless
use by those who do not realize
the harm they are doing them
selves, as well as their neighbors
If you are letting your water rur
longer than necessary because i,
is too much trouble to call up your
patrolman and have it cut off, even
for few days, you are draining
dollars out of your own pocket
book, even if you can't see any
damage on your own place. Tha,
water costs the district money in
salaries and maintenance to carry
to your place and it is going dowr
the valley to help raise the seep-
age levels and cut more irrigable
land off the assessment rolls.
Every time an acre goes bad its
share of the burden is showed over
on the remaining acreage and yor
pay part of it. Besides, your
neighbor loses his land; he is being
ruined by your carelessness; that
is not a neighborly thing to do
