At the regular meeting of the city
council Wednesday evening DR.. D. S.
Brogunier was chosen to succeed E.

several weeks ago when he moved

Councilman Fl. C. Schmidt has been
named official purchasing agent for

This step has been taken for the reas-
on that the new budget law imposes
strict economy and careful accounting
and the administration is determined
to keep expenditures within the bud

When the city closed it's books for
1928 there was not more than $50 of
the annual budget left unexpended.
The 1924 calls for the expenditure of
about $500 less than the sum required
to pay the 1923 bills. BY supervising
expenditures little more carefully
Mayor Desgranges and councilmen ne
lieve they can keep with the smaller
budget without lessening efficiency.

Request of Three Rivers
Growers Association
Is Refused
CLAIMS 1T GETS
BETTER RESULTS
Manager Says Big "Y" Mem
bership Must Not Be
Denied Service

That the Yakima Fruit Growers as
sociation does not intend to discon-
tinue the handling of asparagus and
strawberries is made evident by a
communication from District Manager
4. w. Desgranges as addressed to a
snecial committee of the Three Riv-
ers Growers.
At the annual meeting of the Grow
ers. C. C. Williams, T. j. Chalcraft
and George Sellick were named COM
mittee to confer with the Big seY"
management. The result of the con-
ference is shown by Mr.. Desgranges
letter which follows:
sReplying to your request that the
Big Y discontinue handling of as
paragus and strawberries, we are
obliged to respectfully decline to .ac-
eede to your request for the follow
ing reasons:
"Big Y grass and strawberry
growers have contributed to a fund
aggregating nearly 100000, for the
purpose of providing themselves with
warehouses. cold storage, perfecting a
sales organization, and financing their
necessary supplies at cost, and they
see no good reason now why this SER
vice should be denied them.
'The Big Y realizes fully the nee
essity for these crops to be under
control and desires to cooperate to
the fullest extent. 1t therefor extends
to the Three Rivers Growers a cor
dial invitation to join with the Big Y
in making the fullest use of these
facilities. In extending this invita-
ton we do not feel that we are pre-
sumpious, in view Of the fact that
the experience of the year has dem
onstrated that the Big Y is in a po-
sion to give better service and re-
turn the grower more money than he
can hope to get through any other
agency. Assuming that the published
figures are correct, Big Y growers
received .127 on grass and III on
strawberries, more than was return
ed by the Three Rivers association.
"The Big Y has but one purpose in
this community. That Of serving the
i !. frE
growers. It has builded warehouses
and cold storage for their use, not
to stand idle, but to use, and it's
doors are open to any grass and
strawberry grower who desires to
use the service. These crops coming
on at season Of the year when our
regular force is only partly employed
1t is possible to handle them at the
minimum of expense, resulting in a
great saving to the grass and berry
growers and to the advantage of the
fruit growers.
III the Three Rivers Growers are
really in earnest in their expressed
desire to cooperate, the opportunity
= offered them. The Big Y is al
ways ready to cooperate along prac-
tical lines"

fence to motorists and wrecking an
occasional water pipe the cold is do
ing no damage.

TO MAKE OWN LEAD
Yakima Spray company to Manufac-
ture Arsenate Spray this Year

"Big sY' growers received welcome
news at their annual meeting when
President H. p. James announced that
the Yakima Spray Co., has started
the manufacture of arsenate of lead
and that they will receive their sup
ply this year from their own factory
and at cost of approximately 17c
a pound" says District Manager III.
w. Desgranges. "The price the past
year was 261s which will mean
saving of nearly 10c a pound and as
Big eY' growers used nearly $4,000
pounds they will profit to the extent
of $4,000 The lead is being manu-
factured under the well known Rex
process.
''The Yakima Spray Co. is q CO
operative organization in which the
Big 'Y' is one of the principal stock
holders. 1t was organized, not for
profit, but to manufacture spray ma
terials for its stockholders at cost
Last year they only made lime sui

KINGS Welded
FIFTY YEARS
Kennewick Pioneers Celebrate Golden
Wedding At Sons Home
In PascO

Mr.. and Mrs. w. G. King celebrated
the fiftieth university of their mar
riage Monday December 81, at the
home of their son, Clarence E. King
of Pasco where they were guests for
the day. Dinner was served for the
immediate relatives including Mr. and
Mrs. Kings daughter, Mrs. T. M.
Garner of Wasco, Nebraska. who ar
rived Christmas eve to make an ex-
tended visit with her parents. The
table decorations were in harmony
with the occasion. The center piece
was a miniature bride and groom,
the tiny bride wearing a gown re-
sembling that worn by the bride of
fifty years ago. The color scheme of
gold and white was effectively carried
out by favors in the shape of small
golden trumpets and tiny golden rings
used as place cards. Gold pieces clev-
erly hidden in the ice cream were
features of Mr.. and Mrs. Kings de-
sert course.
On New Years day a number of
Mr.. and Mrs. Kings friends called
at their home to congratulate them.
Among them were members of the
Horticulture club and the Congrega-
tional Missionary Society both Of
which Mrs. King has been a member
for long time. The ladies Of the
Horticulture club presented her with
beautiful gold thimble and the men,
bers of the Missionary Society gave
her an irridescent buffet set.
Mr.. and Mrs. King were married
in the Presbyterian church at Holden,
Missouri. Only one Of their four at
tendants, the second bridesmaid, still
lives. They have been residents of
Kennewick for almost twenty years
and have very large circle of friends
in this community.

ty and farm delegates from all sec
tions of the state.

ly Saturday. Preparations are being
made for the accommodation of more
than three hundred Changers who are

The committee in charge Of arrange
ments hopes to make this meeting as
fine success as the other one.

high school gymnasium and the eat
ing will be done in the M e. church.
At noon the people Of Kennewick win
be guests of the grangers at luncheon
and the grangers will be entertained
by the townspeople at a banquet in
the evening.
Owing to the inability of State
Master Goss to be present there will
be no outside speakers. The public
program will be given at the ban
quet owing to the fact that there are
excellent facilities for accommodating
crowd in the large church dining
room. The banquet will be served oy
the M. E. Ladies Aid and in order
that the necessary arrangements can
be made, townspeople who wish to
attend should notify c. C. Williams
or Gordon Moores. The price will be
fifty cents per plate.

Farm Bureau will be held in the
American Legion rooms Monday and
Tuesday, January Ia and Is. l. is

homes. Th6se who have rooms should
notify HI. G. Fyfe.
The program for the Farm Bureau
meeting has not yet been announced
by the executive committee.
