which in the past cost $40 and en-
titled the holder to Is round trips

proach and Carries Light
Car into Columbia


A runaway truck crashed thru the
Zimmerman ferry last night and sank
In the Columbia river, taking a light
car with it. No lives were lost, but
it is thot that the driver of the
truck is suffering from a broken
back. He is in the Pasco hospital
in critical condition.
The Ford bug was waiting to drive
on the ferry. The truck had stopped
half way up the hill on the approach
when something gave way. Crashing
into the Ford both cars were carried
over the ferry into the deep water.
The Ford was occupied by man and
woman who were fished out of the
cold water with pike pole. Other
passengers on the truck made their
escape on the downward flight, but
the driver caught his foot and in the
spill was badly hurt. Neither car nor
their contents have been recovered.

TO
STAGE A RODEO
Moose Lodgemen Backing
Western Show Expect
Many Visitors

Very likely Gov. Hartley's recent
speech upholding rodeos, round-ups
and the like hasn't thing to do with
it, but nevertheless the local Moose
lodge is planning on holding big
affair in Kennewick on October IL.
Bucking horses, mules and steers
will be ridden by some of the best
talent in the west, according to j. p.
Martin, who is handling the details
of the big show. There will be horse
races, footraces and numerous other
attractions in addition to the rough
riding stunts.
Owing to Kennewick's location,
Moose lodgemen find that this is
a good place to hold their state gath
erings, one of which will be held at
that time. Sixteen drill teams of
twenty-four men each are expected
to be present to compete in state
wide contest. Officers of the lodge
say they expect four or five hundred
visiting lodgemen in addition to the
crowds that a rodeo will attract.

SWEET POTATOES
GOING STRONG
Local Growers Perfect Or
ganization = Expect. to,
Ship Twenty Cars

Sweet potato growers of the val
ley perfected their organization Tues
day by the election of permanent
officers. L. w. Belden of White
Bluffs was elected president; F. L.
O'Brien of Richland, vice-pres.; L. E.
Freeman of Richland, secretary and
Lee NJ. Lampson, manager. The state
department of agriculture appointed
R. d. Sawyer of Richland as member
at large on the board of directors.
At their first meeting it was de-
cided to adopt the U. S. Department
of Agriculture grade rules, consisting
of U. S. No. and U. S. jumble pack.
The spuds will be handled in daily
pools. So far this season about a
car load has heen shipped in small
lots and full car will roll Wednes-
day of next week. The price being
received now is three to three and
one-half cents per pound here. 1t is
estimated that about 18 to 20 car
loads will be shipped from the valley
this year.
: The rec, varieties are moving slow
er than the yellow but from all points
come compliments on the quality OF
the potatoes.
The experiment station is testing
out the different varieties and by
next year will have found kinds of
yellow potatoes that will yield as well
as the red ones.
Those acquainted with conditions
here predict that with an average
price of three cents per pound sweet
potatoes will be big money maker
for the grower.
\ Favorable reports from the grow
ers, from the maketing agencies and
from the consumers indicate that the
sweet potato crop will increase in
this section.

Increase in Number of Ex-
hibits In All But The
Plate Fruit
HIGHLANDS WINS IN
DISTRICT DISPLAY
Benton County Exhibit at
State Fair Again Takes
First Prize Money

A substantial increase in the num-
her Of exhibits in every department
cave one marked this years fair. Ow-
inp to the winter freeze the number
Of plate exhibits was smaller than
usual and the loss of the soft fruit
section was noticeable. However, the
fair as a whole was excellent and
favorable comments were heard on
every side.
The various district displays were
exceptionally good, and the individ-
ual exhibits were larger and carried
a greater variety than ever before.
First prize for the distict display
was won by the Highlands, with
Richland second and Kennewick Val
lev third. The Finley district got
fourth money and Hover fifth.
R. E. Carpenter of the River Road
won first prize in the individual
farm display, with ]. F. Perry sec
ond. Fred Mills won first place with
his individual fruit display, F. A.
Friermood second. Mr.. Friermood
won blue ribbon on three fine boxes
of grapes.
The grape display of F. A. Frier-
mood of Richland, was one of the
features of the fair. Had this exhibit
been entered in the grape division
instead Of competing in the individual
fruit class, Mr.. Friermood would
have captured the handsome trophy
cup for the second time, having won
first place last year with fine ex-
hibit.
The poultry and live stock exhibits
this year were unusually good. Both
departments had fine list of entries
and both give promise of an increase
for next year. In the livestock divi-
sion especially, the Boys and Girls
club entries captured numerous blue
ribbons.
The Women's department this year
was perhaps the largest and most
varied of any of the previous fairs.
Much interest was shown in this
feature.
That the products of this commun-
ity were real prize takers is shown
by the fact that Benton county won
first place at the state fair. At the
close Of the Kennewick fair the prize
winning exhibits were taken to Yak
ina, together with displays from
Prosser and the up-river country. Ma
terial from the Kennewick fair COM
prised about two-thirds of the coun-
ty exhibit, which scored 50 points
out of possible hundred. A special
award Of $50 was given to Benton
county for general appearance.
Twelve other counties in the state
had exhibits.
Skagit county won second place
with IS points, Asotin third with 81
and Spokane fourth with 81. The ex-
nlblts at the state fair, especially
those from thirteen counties showing,
were large and varied and according
20 the judges, We're equal to any for
mer showings.
Next week the full list of prize
Winners will be printed in this paper.
