SPRAY AGAIN

1t will be necessary to put on a
Goblin moth spray to be completed not
later than the 10th of August, says
District Horticulturist Hill. 1t is
possible that some orchards may get
by without this spray, but be sure
that your orchard and the neighbor's
orchard, have no wormy apples be-
fore you decide not to spray. l do
not believe it advisable to take a
chance with the worms until picking
time.
Harry Linn has been appointed
deputy horticultural fruit inspector.
Mr.. Linn is taking P. A. Combelic's
place. Anyone having any orchard
problems annoying them, please call
Mr.. Linn.

Local House Planning Weekly Re-
frigerator Cars to the Seattle
Market

A profit possibility is being offered
growers of this vicinity this week, by
the Kennewick Supply & Storage Co.
Combination refrigerator car ship
ments to be made weekly to the coast
have been arranged to- take care of
odd lots of produce for which there is
no ready markets in Kennewick.
Commencing next week refrigera-
tor cars will leave Kennewick for Sc
attic each Tuesday morning to ar
rive for early Thursday delivery to
the wholesale houses. The service will
be continued as long as there is suf-
fcient volume to warrant the ex-
pense.S
On nearly every farm there are
small lots of various sorts that a
market could be found for, but us
ually the express rates eat up all
possible margin of profit. These lots
can be put on the market under the
new plan at a material reduction in
transportation costs.
This service has been tried out in
several other farming districts and

SMITH PUTS OUT
A FOREST FIRE
Comes Within Foot of Put
ting His Hand on A
Rattlesnake

Al Smith (our AL not New
ork,s) says that killing rattlesnakes
and fighting fires is not exactly the
best way to spend the summer vaca-
tion, tho he had good time at that.
Mr.. Smith accompanied some
friends on ten-day camping trip up
to Chelan Lake where several nice
messes of fish were shared and Al
encountered his first forest fighting
experiences. The party had Just got
nicely settled in camp when the fire
warden asked about AIS fire fighting
abilities. Told to get a. partner Al was
ordered to grab blanket and coat
and was turned over to the boatman
who took the two volunteers about
twenty miles up the lake where a
smoke was seen.
The boatman told them to shin up
the mountain and stop the smoke.
Some wise man had named the noun
tain, according to Al. It was Goat
mountain and climber had to al
most have the agility of goat to
get up it. After about quarter of
a mile the packs became too cumber-
some and we're discarded and the two
men clambered up to where the smoke
was coming from a lone pine that
had been set afire by lightning.
The mountainside was so rocky
that they had the dickens own time
putting the fire out. Finally, after
much shoveling they succeeded in
smothering the blaze. Picking out the
softest rocks in sight they spent the
night near the former forest fire" !"
In the morning, making sure that the
fire was entirely out they returned
to the lakeshore to wait for the boat.
On the way down Al nearly shook
hands with nice little rattlesnake.
Putting out his hand to grab a rock
to keep from slipping into the lake
mile or so below he heard warn
ng rattle. Mr.. Snake was coiled,
ready to do business and AL said he
had to hit him with shovel. Three
rattles and button is the trophy.
The two men had to sit in the hot
sun from daylight until noon before
the boat returned for them. They
could see the fish swimming around
below them but they had no equip
ment with which to land them. How
ever, the fishing as whole was fair
and they enjoyed the outing greatly.
The day they left the district storm
started sixteen more fires in the
woods and Mr.. Smith says he'd had
enough fire fighting already and was
willing to come on home.

THE IRON HORSE

FILM

There are few more stirring
chapters in American history
than the massive achievement of
the laying Of the first tracks

Of what then seemed, insur-

School textbooks, we recall,

but brief mention and 1t is only
through the medium Of the silver
screen that we realize for the
first time it's true Significance.

at the Rialto this week, is more
than a musty page Of history,
however. 1t is a living, breath.

dealing with two.fisted he-men,

Only q carper could say that
the play does not boast q rather
compelling interest. Our atten-
ton is always fascinated by
the spectacle of old age mas
querading as, youth, whether it
be in the street or in the thea
ter. The piece is eloquently
tragic SO far as it depicts the
unlovely struggle of a mother
of wintering years to recapture
youth. That excites our curl
osity as would any exhibit Of the
unusual. The deiiouement be-
tween mother and son in the
last act is dynamic in acting
acrobatics and nothing short OF

stage and who has come to be
one of the leading pantomim1sts
of the country, is as funny as
of yore. He is ably assisted by
Sam Green. Their familiar piano
movers sketch is still good for
many laughs, while their new
mechanical horse was scream.
This pair also have some other
stunts that are extremely funny.
Elsa MAY sang and danced her
way into the affections of the
audience and demonstrated that
she is one of the most popular
women in burlesque. Betty Rur-
roughs is an animated soubrette
and won favor with her efforts.
Beatrice Tracey and Miss Frank

Charles Adams and Sam Gould

The diamond horseshoe scene is
one of the most elaborate scenic

long TIME, while another feature
of note was the burlesque IN
