Playing with the accuracy and ma

with four strokes to spare. His score

We can understand why the dain-

seen some ourselves that looked gooc

COLO. POTATO BUG
THREATENS INDUSTRY
Inspector Requiring Re-run in New
Sacks or Quarantine on
Local Shipments

The quarantine regulations being
placed upon potatoes from Eastern
Washington are a serious menace to
the industry. To prevent the further
spread of the Colorado potato beetle
the state horticultural inspector is
requiring the re-running of all po-
tatoes in new sacks at the car door.
In the case of early potatoes this me-
thod will effectually stop the sale
and unless the market is strong it
will also work hardship upon the
late potato growers.
A meeting of representative po-
tato growers from Eastern Wash
ington was held in Toppenish last
night to attempt to find some means
of saving the industry. The general
opinion seemed to be that control
methods in the fields only would be
feasible. M. N. Hudnall, E. ID. Sell
lick, Geo. Albright and Jos. Gerards
were delegates from Kennewick who
attended the meeting.

Swimming has been one OF the
most popular pastimes OF the people
in this section of the state during
the past month of torrid weather,
the pool and the river dividing hon
ors for popularity. Swimmers in the
river have been getting good laughs
when they tell about the fish nibbling
their toes. Several have told about
the inauisitiveness of the finny tribe
and some have even seen the fish
when they come up to taste the ex-
hibits. The stories don't all come from
this side of the river, either. Sun

about the fish biting the swimmers

VACATION DAYS
ALMOST OVER
Local Schools to Open Fall
Term August 31-Three
r. New Teachers

School starts in Kennewick August
31st. Vacation days will be over with
the close of this month and every
thing is in readiness to begin the
fall educational work.
At the meeting of the school board
Monday night three changes were
made in the teaching staff for the
coming year. Due to resignation three
new teachers have been hired. Miss
Olga Heggem of Seattle, was elected
to fill the vacancy caused by the res
ignation of Miss Pansy Swannick.
As both Mr.. LeFevre and Mr.. Farms
worth have recently decided to con-
tinue their work this winter for a
college degree their designations
We're accepted by the board. The high
school shop work and athletics will
be handled by ]. H. Griggs of Seat
tie. Grade athletics and seventh grade
instruction will be handled by Edwin
Howe of Cheney.
The board has decided to make a
tuition charge for those pupils who
desire to attend the Kennewick high
school from communities in which a
high school is located. This fee will
be four dollars per month and will
be used to assist little in defraying
the cost of instruction. This tuition
does not apply to those attending
from districts in which there is no
high school.

PUT UP HALL
!. SAYS r. L. BANTA
City's Landlord Says It'll be
Fine to have City Home
Also a Broom

r. L. Banta, who owns the build
ing that houses the city hall and fire
department is in favor of the city
building a home of its own, but
thinks that the city is "dirty house
keeper" He writes the following
letter to this paper in regard to it
.'Yes, it would be fine if the city
could finance and build a city hall
and not increase city taxes" he says
"The writer, notwithstanding he
owns the present building that shell
ters the city's interests is in favor
of such building. But would like
to correct a wrong impression given
out in last weeks paper to the effect
that the owner of said building in
tended to equip building with furnace
and wanted $75 per month rent for
new lease of three years, implying
an advance in rent. This is not so as
the city has paid $75 per month for
the past three years.
''With this move in contemplation
let me express the hope that the new
quarters will be kept cleaner than
has been done in my building. If not
it will not reflect credit on the city.
Yours for better housekeeping, R.
L. Banta."

COUNTIES ARRANGE
TO SHOW AT FAIR
Only One Entry in Our District SO
far - Big Money is being
Offered

The keenest competition ever
staged among the counties of the
state for showing of their best ag-
ricultura1 and horticultural products
is promised at the Washington State
Fair during the week, September Il
to 10. Ten counties already have made
definite entry of their exhibits, four
others are preparing to exhibit, and
others may enter.
An. extra bonus of $50 to each
county exhibition is offered this
year in order to reimburse partially
the local organizations which under
take the work of gathering the ex-
hibits. This is added to the award of
$100 to each county, distributed pro
rata to all qualifying with a 65 per
cent score and to the sweepstakes
prize of $50 for the exhibit judged
the best decorated and best arranged.
The counties from District No.
which includes the portion of the
state west of the Cascades, is certain
to make strong bid for honors, as
six of the ten counties now entered
are from this district. They are Lew
is, Skagit, Snohomish, Pierce, CIa-
liam and Kitsap. Pacific County will
probably exhibit. Yakima county, be-
cause of its advantage of location,
will be barred from this competition.
In District No. 3, Spokane and
Asotin counties have already entered
and Walla Walla and Whitman are
expected.
At the 1923 fair Spokane county
won the sweepstakes award and the
largest prize in the pro rated money,
Skagit was second and Lewis third.

local garage as branch of mair
office at Sunnyside, and it has beer
in charge of a local manager. Out.
side of the sale of cars but little
activity has been made in the Ken

work attempted.
With his taking possession Mr.

WEST PEAR PRICES
BETTER THAN EAST
Glut at Auction Centers Causes Drop
MANY Pears Go Into
Storage Here

The seasons activities 'have begun
IA earnest at the Big Y cold stor-
sge plant From two to five cars of
pears have been arriving daily from
up valley points for storage. The
present heavy storage is due to a
siut in the market which has de-
pressed prices to a very low level
The auctions have all been overload
ed with independent shipments and
the trade has not overlooked the op-
portunity to take advantage of it.
This condition has forced the big
shippers to go into storage until this
glut is cleaned up. There seems to
be no doubt that the market will soon
recover and this stand is shared by
the western Gamers who are now
paying more for pears here in the
vest than the same pears are selling
for in the eastern markets after all
the packing, handling and freight has
been added. Some one will hold the
sack and as is usually the case in the
end it will be the grower. 1t will be
recalled that two years ago similar
condition developed and prices were
forced down to below $50 ton. The
cold storage facilities of the valley
saved the situation by taking care Of
3
me surplus and allowing the markets
70 clean up when the market became
Strengthened and the season closed at
around $50. The California Pear
uroWers association and the large
Ssoclatlons of the Northwest have
not become historical and are hold
ing at firm prices and moving some
ssock into favorable markets, away
.rom congested centers at very salts
,actory prices and the Gamers are
ouying heavy for future delivery on
iasprable terms. The situation is not
~ folscouraging as it would seem on
the surface.

KENNEWICK IS
LOSER IN SERIES
Pasco Takes Pennant ir
in Strawberry League
Win First Two Games

Kennewick lost the strawberry
league pennant last week. Pasco took
the first game of the series in 12-
inning 4-3 fight over there Friday
night and won again Sunday here
90.
Friday nights game was a whiz-
zer, each side winning the game a
couple of times and then handing it
over to their opponents as nice as you
please. Sundays game started out
fine, the Kennewick boys winning the
game in the first inning with four
runs, two of which were earned.
However, the boys couldn't get any
pep into it and began piling up the
errors and boneheads and Pasco in
the meantime slid whole flock of
players over the home plate.
In the opinion of fans from both
towns Pasco and Kennewick have the
best teams this year that have played
for a long time. Off days, usually
the result of nights out, lose the games
the following day. AS the teams
from both towns this year were made
up of local players entirely, the line
up for next year promises to be
equally good.
Pasco wins the pennant this year
with Kennewick in second place.
Third place goes to Richland, fourth
to Hanford with White Bluffs in the
cellar. Connell pulled out of the
league several games ago.

VOTE ON 5-MILL
SCHOOL LEVY
p,doet for School Year Cut
$4,000 ~ Cut Out Buses
Alternative

4. snecial school election will be
.,,ed for Monday, August "a for
s.hool district No. II. The school di-
..ctors are asking authority to levy
-. mills for school purposes for the
coming term.
For several years past it has been
,ecessary to make special assess
,ents for the purpose of keeping the
..hool standards up to the high STAN
5ard required. Authorization of a
ten-mill levy has been made several
times recently. Last year the assess
meut was cut down to six mills. This
wear the board, by cutting every cor
nor possible, has effected a saving of
over three thousand dollars in the
budget for the coming year. Even at
the decreased figures in the budget
iye-mill levy will be necessary.
The board is unwilling to make any
further cuts in the conduct of the
schools. The only remaining item
that can be pared will be the discon-
tinusnce of the free bus service. The
bus service is one of the big ex-
penses of the district but the board
feels that it should not be discon-
tinued. The board is of the opinion
that patrons will not want the bus
sryice curtailed and in view of the
eut already made in the budget the
fve-mill levy will be allowed.
