MARKETING COMMITTEE
ISSUES STATEMENT

The Northwestern. cooperative
marketing committee that has been
in California for the past two weeks
studying the methods of the DIFF
ferent marketing agencies in that
state, returned home last Sunday
and has issued the following state
ment to northwest growers on the
progress made since their appoint
n,ent in January by the head of the
state chamber of commerce
Being supplied with several plans
for organizing the northwest apple
industry the commission was at the
outset confronted with the task of
sitting out what was good and practi-
cal from each. The so-called Cali
fornia plan was foremost among the
proposals, yet so far as members of
the commission were aware there
were many plans of organization in
vogue. It was found that the Wen
atchee coordinating plan had almost
an identical counterpart in the Cal
ifornia fruit agency in 1904, but failed
to accomplish the desired ends and
came nearly running what semblance
of organization existed in the citrus
industry at that time.
"Were the commission to recon-
mend the California plan it would be
recommending four or five separate
plans. Careful investigation has re-
vealed that there are good features in
each of these, but each embodies prin-
ciples that would not be applicable to
the apple industry. Most of the big
California organizations, with sue
cessful record behind them, have crept
before they walked. They have been
of slow and gradual growth along
lines of good business sense.
"The commissions conclusions for
organization plans for the northwest
are being formed, after taking consid-
Grafton of this fact. In molding re-
commentators we are keeping in
mind the fundamental requirements of
the industry such as greater con-
sumption of boxed apples; retail prices
that quickly reflect low wholesale
values; a greater number of carlot
markets; the prevention of congestion
in gateway markets; a greater use OF
cold storage and lower production and
transportation costs.
"How to improve and govern these
fundamentals, upon which the success
of our industry rests in a sane
and sensible manner is requiring a
great deal of thought and hard
work. The commission does not
intend to PROFOUND a plan infex-
ible and inconsiderate Of existing
institutions, above all it does not
expect to urge the northwest to
adopt the California plan Such
recommendations as are made will
be northwestern plans, conceived
to best meet northwest conditions"
The commission expects to recon
vene this week, either at Seattle OF
Yakima.

CHANCE FOR COLD
STORAGE PLANT HERE

Growers In this valley have for some
time felt the need of cold stor.
age plant, especially for the storing of
winesap apples, but SO far no definite
steps have been taken toward the ac-
quiring of such plant. w. D. Mac
kay of Seattle, owner with ]. F. Bleak
ley in the Bleakley Fruit company or
chard, was in the valley this week
looking into the matter of tonnage that
a cold storage plant here might expect
to handle. The Bleakley Fruit COM
pany has had considerable experience
with Eastern cold storage and both
Mr.. Mackay and Mr.. Bleakley are con-
vinced that plant here would be more
economical and satisfactory in almost
every way providing there is sufficient
tonnage to pay interest on the invest
ment and the overhead in its operation.
Mr.. Mackay said he had been inves-
tigating the cold storage in Yakima
and elsewhere and believed that a
plant large enough to handle the local
tonnage could be built for around $50
600. He left for home Tuesday morn
ing with the intention of having an
engineer draw the plans and estimate
the cost. Mr.. Mackay said that if the
engineers figures are in keeping with
his estimate, he had plan for 6nanc-
ing the plant all worked out and that
it would not be necessary for any
local growers wanting to use the plant
to purchase any stock altho they would
have the privilege of buying some if
they so desired. He said before leav-
ing that in the event he was unsuc-
cessful in putting over the deal he
hoped the movement he had started
would result in some one putting in
a cold storage plant here and that if
they did the Bleakley Fruit company
would be glad to run their winesaps
through the plant.

STUDY CLASS FOR YOUNG
MOTHERS TO Be STARTED

On Monday, Miss Mary Sutherland
of the state college extension service,
spoke to a small audience at the high
school auditorium on Nutrition" Ac-
cording to Miss Sutherland, the fact
that nearly six million undernourished
children have been discovered in the
United States has awakened our nation
and state to the necessity of educating
the people in the essentials of nutrition.
A committee headed by President
Black of the Ellensburg normal and
made up of representatives Of the doc
tors, nurses, dentists, nutrition workers
and school authorities of the state, has
charge of the work in this state.
These people are cooperating in this
movement because physical defects
bad teeth, disease, bad hygiene and
poor-food habits all overlap and are
all factors in malnutrition.
The doctors must handle cases
where disease has taken hold but
the nutrition specialist can show
one how, through diet, he may pre-
vent disease, and, as Miss Sutherland
emphasized, prolong the efficient work
ing period of ones life. By right iv-
ing the mental and physical energy
may be kept keen through life.
Last year work was started with the
school children and now it is wished
to reach the adults and little children.
Miss Sutherland also spoke of the
need of good teeth, correct posture,
steady nerves, deep breathing and
good heart beat and gave chart of
foods, showing which were for making
the bone, muscle, nerves and good
blood to produce these good effects.
The state college in cooperating with
the United States Department of Agri-
culture has printed a great number OF
pamphlets which can be obtained by
any one simply writing to Pullman.
Such subjects as overweight and un-
derweight in adults, nutrition of child
rem, headaches, insomnia, constipation,
hay fever, eta, are discussed and diets
suggested.
In order to present the work of nu-
triton among pre-school children,
study class of young mothers is to be
started in White Bluffs. The mothers
will learn what to do to give their
children a good physical foundation on
which to build their lives. Some mat
crial is now to be had from our library
ard any one interested can get it by
calling either Mrs. M. S. Meeks or
Mrs. John McFee,

TRAIN CASUALTY STILL UNKNOWN Efforts To Identify Man Killed In Accident
 Unavailing

Efforts to identify the young white man who was killed at Fourteenth street and Railroad avenue Monday aft ernoon when he fell under freight train had proved in vain Monday night, according to Coroner J. D. Russum, in charge of the investigation.
 The young man missed his footing and the lower part of his body slipped under the train, a negro witness told ambulance drivers from Johns. The drivers, in hurry to move the dying man to the hospital, failed to obtain information as to which train had fig urged in the accident. His position when picked up made it possible for either the Louisville and Nashville or the Alabama Great Southern to have caused his death. He died at 50 o'clock, five minutes after reaching St. Vincent's hospital.
 The dead man was apparently be- tween 28 and 30 years of age with red dish brown hair, combed straight back, and blue eyes. His hair had been re- gently cut and his face was clean shaven. He is s feet 9 inches tall and weighs about 150 pounds. The dead man was wearing black pin stripe suit, blue socks, black top shoes, a brown felt hat, as blue broadcloth shirt and a black bow Die.
 Nothing was found in his pockets by which his identity could be traced. He had Sells, ,F1oto Fircus poster and 55 cents in money in his pocket and a cheap ring on his finger. John Robin son circus officials failed to identify the man after they had viewed the body.
 A photograph of the dead man will be made by Johns Undertaking com pany and filed for future reference. Charles Worrell, manager of the com many announced
