SPRAY TRIAL rs
HELD IN CHICAGO
Government Witness Says 1t
Would Take 5 Years Eeating
to Tell Effect on Humans

Expert testimony was offered
by the government recently in its
effort to confscate 2294 boxes Of
apples it alleges were sprayed
with dangerous solution before
they were shipped by the Suncrest
Orchard Co. of Worries, Ore. says
a press dispatch.
DR.. A. j. Carlson, professor OF
physiology at the University OF
Chicago, testified that if each ap.
pie or pear sprayed with the solu-
tion retained one or two one-hun.
dredths of it, the eaters system
would be subjected to "cummula.
tive poisoning" ~ -:>~
He admitted upon cross-exam-
ination, however, that it would re.
quire five years to determine the
toxicity, or poisonousness of the
solution in question.
Col. E. E. Kelly of Medford, Ore.
gon, defense attorney, made it
known that the resistance against
the government is in the manner
of test by Pacific Northwest
growers, who, he said, have lost
millions of dollars thru govern
ment seizures of shipments.
The solution is not sprayed il
such quantities as tot hreaten pub
lice health, he said.

affair in charge expect to see

today to Rev. Morton said that

sinner and you are so close to the

the brink, and then you will be-
come a man after Gods own heart.
If you are man enough, tell God
that You are an old sinner and
that you want to go square with
Him." There isn't a man who
starts out to drink that doesn't
know that that's the. e.way fellow
becomes drunkard. There isn't

line and doesn't wear enough
clothes to wad a shotgun that
doesn't know. She has the example

talks. Arrangements were complet-
led yesterday by the committee in

will be unable to be present.
Rev. Sunday has been engaged
the past few weeks in conducting
a series of meetings in Yakima
Many local people have already
gone to that place to hear his in
spring sermons and others have
planned to attend before the close
of the services. L
Rev. F. N. Morton, of the local
Methodist church, who attended a
recent meeting, spoke to the evan
gelist after the services to see if
he could come to Kennewick. Attic
not in the habit Of preaching on
Monda ay nights, the evangelist
agreed to come here, with a pro.
vision that a substantial collection

is to go to the bible institute

Lampson F n d S Ready
Market for Hi 9Th
Grade Products
MUST MAINTAIN
HIGH STANDARD
Dealers Want Kennewick
Strawberries Too =
Raise More

Gall doubt as to the possibility
of overproduction for Kennewick
asparagus may now be laid to
rest" said Lee M. Lampson today
in relating his experiences on his
recent trip thru the eastern states
to extend the markets for the
Three Rivers Growers association.
sKennewick asparagus growers
cannot produce so much asparagus
that it will become a drug on the
market, providing the shipping
season is not extended too long,
and providing also that we main
tain our present standard of grade
and pack" =. Il. = 81
The growers in this valley have
finally got started. on the right
foot on the asparagus, according
to Mr.. Lampson. The quality,
which has been strictly maintained
in the past few seasons, is receiv-
ing commentator in all the mar
kets where it has been established,
and the trade is well pleased with
the pyramid package. d,
One of the greatest difficulties,
Mr.. Lampson says, with market
ing product so far from the place
it is grown, is to have the buyer
understand that a certain brand
will always come up to a certain
specified quality. In the eastern
markets, when a buyer wants the
best apples that come from the
west they always specify Horti-
cultural Union. In years of deal
ings, one eastern buyer reported
that he never had a carload ar
rive that was not absolutely ac-
cording to the grade ordered. That
particular pack has become the
standard of comparison for all
western boxed apples. The Kenne-
wick asparagus is beginning to set
the same standard in its line, ac-
cording to Mr.. Lampson, and if
the growers maintain that stand
ard here, there will be no trouble
in the marketing end.
A normal shipping season should
find a ready market at a good
price thruout the eastern states
for the Kennewick asparagus
which will enter into competition
with the California and southern
product. However, Mr.. Lampson
states that after the northern crop
is put on the market the fancy
price will go off. Growers can con-
tinue to ship into that field, and
at price that will pay growing
and harvesting expenses.
His trip was also to find a mar
ket for the Kennewick cherries.
The Bings, he said, could be sold
IN as large quantities as the val
ley could supply. Bing cherries
and the Clark Seeding strawber-
ries needed no selling. The only
difficulty would be. in securing the
tonnage to make the shipments.
Mr.. Lampson is of the opinion,
often expressed, that asparagus
and berries were this valleys best,
easiest and quickest money makers
and that the acreage should be
greatly increased.

GREAT bRHA|N'S GENERAL
STRIKE CALLED OFF TODAY
NATIONAL HOSPITAL DAY

National Hospital Day was OBJ
served for the first time on May
IL, 1921. This day was selected
as the most fitting date because
it is the anniversary of the birth
of Florence Nightingale, pioneer
in modern hospital and nursing
methods.
Do people realize that the
hospital as we know it is largely
an American Institution? Origin
ally there were places for the
destitute, poor houses in fact, but
the great modern hospital is in no
small measure an American insti-
tute, developed in America,
patronized by all classes of society
and recognized as a proper place
for the sick regardless of class.
Every hospital is an institution
built as bulwark against disease.
Every hospital is battling for the
health of the people and is en-
deavoring to serve as an instructor
of the people. In this latter ser
vice its success is proportionate to
