WILL POST ROAD SIGNS
ON ALL HIGHWAYS

At the meeting of the Community
Club Tuesday, evening at Liberty
hall, the secretary of the Club. D. S.
Wilkinson, was asked to secure prices
from the State Automobile Club on
the painting of 100 White Bluffs road
signs with the idea of having all of
the highways leading to White Bluffs
posted.
A committee of Edmund Anderson,
John McFee and L. w. Beldin was
authorized to see to the collection of
exhibits for the State Fair at Yakima,
September 1920, after the club had
voted its approval of such action. The
exhibits this year will be used as a
part of the Benton County display,
with proper Identification cards.
Attention was called at the meeting
to the fact that there are several
thousand Priest Rapids Valley
small fruit box labels at the telephone
office, furnished by the Milwaukee
railroad, and that these are free for
the asking. Every one shipping
out fruit in these small boxes,
either by express and parcel post,
should secure supply of these
labels and use them at every oppor-
tunity. BY SO doing they will not
only advertise the district but will
help toward establishing the Priest
Rapids Valley label, under which the
bulk of the fruit from this valley will
be going in the future.
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1926-08-20

The so-called hick town has lately
become source of great inspiration to
our profea;ional humorists.
A hick town, say the various users
of this convenient formula, is a place
where back tire is never mistaken
for pistol shot; where bedtime is
orthodox; where woodpeckers eat up
the depot; where central can tell you
whether it was girl or boy; where
the neighbors with supply you with a
conscience if you lack one; where there
is no parking problem; where curfew
disturbs the residents rest; where fine
cut tobacco is no handicap socially, and
so on and so on.
With no intention of becoming ter
ribly heavy over the matter, we want
to add that hick town is a place
where 26 of the 29 residents! were
born and where out of 10 Of the
immortal in New York's national hall
Of fame originated. A hick town that
didn't have name produced Lincoln.
Hick towns gave us most of our great
literary figures of the past and prac-
tically all of those now living. Hick
towns produce our Edisons.
If we may, then we would like to
suggest that a hick town is a place
where boy has an excellent oppor-
tunity to lay the foundation of future
eatness.--Exchange.

WENATcAEE BEATS YAKIMA

Apples were being sold in Wenatchee
up to the first of the week in four
times the quantity that they were be-
ing sold in Yakima, according to the
records being received by the Yakima
shippers. For the week ending Aug
ust IA there were 465 cars sold in
Wenatchee and 113 in Yakima, says
the Yakima Herald.
The Jonathan variety is leading in
the sales and Delicious comes second.
The Delicious have sold at 81 to S2.25
a box +. o. b. for extra fancy and
Jonathans at $l.50 box for extra
fancy for early shipment and $l.25
a a box for seasonal shipments. Some
basket Jonathans for shipment from
the Yakima Valley sold at 81 basket
for apples two and one fourth inches
in diameter and larger.
Some have sold of practically all
but extremely few of Wine
saps. Hood River shippers are SELL
ing Newtowns at $1.40 to 81. so a box
and Spitzenburgs at $1.40 to $l.so a
box.
The tonnage already sold indicates
that the apple deal is under way and
that opening prices have been estab
lished.

GROW FIGS IN YAKIMA.

Figs have ripened this summer on
the grounds of Mr.. and Mrs. Lee Dele
on Lombard Ave. The trees, of which
there are five, were planted several
years ago. Each winter they were
killed to the ground, but sprouted from
the roots in spring. Last winter, how
ever, they came through unhurt and
have this summer borne limited
number of fruits. Since they have
been frozen down for several winters,
there are no trees, but instead several
shoots, four to five feet high, from
each root. The fruits appear singly
in the axis OF the leaves or where
leaves were at one time. The leaves
are large and lobed.
English walnuts on the Dele
grounds this year have fair crop of
nuts, but the black walnuts of which
there are quite few trees on the
grounds are bearing only light crop.
]. C. Butterfield of Terrace Heights
has fig tree on his home grounds.
1t has set fruit a number of years,
but due to lack of pollination the fruit
has not matured.-Yakima Herald.
