APPLES ARE
BEING PACKED
Houses on Fruit Row Are
Occupied With Delicious
and Rome Beauties

Fruit row is showing some signs
of life. With the picking of the De-
licious and Rome Beauties most of
the houses have started their pack
ing department with small crews. AT
the Big Y warehouse about 1000 box
es day are being packed. A new
innovation has been installed here in
the form of polishing machine and
no Big Y apples will go into the mar
ket covered with dust and spray to
frighten the timid eastern consum-
er but every apple will be polished
and ready for consumption. Fruit
thus prepared is meeting with much
favor by the trade and it is believ-
ed will result in obtaining an addi-
tional price.
The machine is an ingenious con-
trivance and entails no additional ex-
pense except the power to drive a
half-horse power motor. The polish
er is attached to the Cutter sizer
and the fruit passes directly to the
Cutler sizer requiring no additional
handling. Fruit men are enthusiast
ic over the results as it adds much
to the appearance of the package.
The apple market is showing in-
creasing strength as it is evident that
the tonnage, heretofore estimated, is
greatly decreasing as picking ad-
vances. In many cases less than half
the crop expected is being harvested.
This condition seems to prevail in
all apple sections and as this fact
becomes known it is not surprising
that prices are advancing.

Special Train Will Bring
Visitors on Good Will
Tour Through Valley.
LUNCHEON AT THE
METHODIST CHURCH
Commercial and Woman's
Clubs Plan for Enter
tainment of Visitors

Tacoma wants to know Kenne-
wick better" This is the message
which the Tacoma Chamber of Conn
merce has sent here announcing that
Friday of this week nearly 100 prom
inent Tacoma business men and their
wives will spend few hours in Ken
newick.
The visitors will arrive on a spe-
cial Northern Pacific train at 11:47
and will devote two hours to learn
ing all they can about this communi-
ty.
In order that the Tacomans may
meet as many Kennewick people as
possible, the Kennewick Commercial
club has arranged luncheon in the
M. E. church dining room at 1890.
A canvass of the memberships of the
Commercial and Woman's clubs has
been made with the result that about
rs of Kennewick's men and women
will be present to act as hosts and
hostesses.
At the request of the visitors no
attempt will be made to take them
for automobile rides or to show them
around the surrounding country. Dur
ing the luncheon hour there will be
a short musical and speaking pro-
gram by local people while the Ta-
comans will be prepared to respond
with speeches and stunts of their
own.
The local entertainment committee
requests as many people as possible
to meet the train at the station and
join the visitors in parade down
Second street and up to the church.
The Tacoma Chamber of Commerce
has become noted for its "Good Will"
Trade Extension tours, which hereto
fore have been confined to southwest
Washington. The desire to know
more about communities east of the
Cascades has been growing in Ia
coma, however, and it was recently
decided that the final 1924 tour
should visit points outside of the
territory formerly embraced in these
good will trips. The present tour
includes stops at nearly all Of the
Yakima Valley towns, Walla Walla
and Pendleton. Thus the visitors will
have an opportunity to enjoy the
Harvest Home Festival in Yakima
and the Roundup in Pendleton.

tion in This County

primary vote completed in 26 of the
80 counties Of the state, Roland III.
Hartley leads Z. L. French by be-
tween 1000 and 100 votes for repub-
lican nomination for governor. The
official canvass changed the prelimi-
nary tabulations but little and the
nomination Of the Everett man is now
practically assured. In fact his NOM
ination has been conceded by all Of
the rival candidates with the excep-
tion of Mr.. French.
At the general election Col. Hart
ley will be opposed by Ben F. Hill,
of Walla Walla, who secured the DEM
ocratic nomination.
AS result of their majorities in
the primary, Justics Main and Nit
chell will be unqpposed at the gen.
eral election. The third place on the

for by Judge w. H. Askren, of Ta-
coma and Justice Pemberton.
G. w. Hamilton of Prosser, whose
name was written in on the demo-
cratic ballot received 62 votes for
representative. This entities him to
place on the general election ballot
If he chooses to pay the filing fee
and accept the nomination.
The official canvass of Benton
county's vote revealed no changes in
the original tabulations. The clos
est contest was that of county COM
missioner in the first district where
Commissioner Sam Allard won out
by ten votes over C. H. McCready.
The official count on representative
gives M. M. Moulton 1195 to C. w.
Fristoe's 1929.

the REPUBLICAN ticket with 1893 votes
to 345 for Edward Parker.

fourth with 913. Members of the
Kennewick bar issued statement

,ne of the largest ever cast at a
primary election in this county and
was approximately rs per cent of
he registration, There Were 2405
republican votes, 334 democrats, and
l65 farmer-labor.

"You didn't eat any breakfast,

Margaret said: ''Why, yes"
and broke the long dainty strip

Margaret pressed her clasped

looked then as she had that night
standing on the stair; a white
angel weeping-a white angel
touching her holy hands on An
drew's hair. And the awe and
tragedy of that silent embrace
had gone with such terror to the
heart of the child.
Nora Lee glanced at her

so for love. The girl thought
of young, tender eyes resting in
hers; warm, vital lips that Wits.
