DONOVAN DEGREES
B|GCORPORAT|ONS
Declares Undue Combina-
tions Will Force Government
to Interfere in Trade.

By the Associated Press.
QUEBEC. June 23.-American bust
ness was warned yesterday by William
j. Donovan, assistant to the Attorney
General of the United States. to apply
the economic brakes to undue COM
hinations and consultations"
Addressing the New York State
Bankers Association meeting here he
said good sense alone should prompt
this action. lest the Government be
forced to interfere and take over these
corporation even though in so doing
there might be developed a bureau
cracy wikb evils greater than those
sought to be corrected"
Mr.. Donovan. who has taken charge
of the Governments antitrust prose
cutions, said ii was the settled law
of the Nation that natural lines of
competition be left undisturbed. There
was growing tendency, however, he
said. for industries to get together and
by agreement stabilize prices.
Many Deal With Necessities.
Furthermore, he asserted present
day combinations for the most part
deal with the immediate necessities
of life and ARE all the more likely to
arouse public Indignation" The
problem becomes more involved. he
said, because corporations, although
owned by a greater percentage of in
dividuaI stockholders, are managed
with little knowledge by the stock
holders.
Banking institutions. upon whose
support these expansions must neces-
sarily depend" he said. should direct
their efforts to hating undue combi-
nations and consultations, particu-
arly those calculated to violate COM
petitive principles. It is infinitely
better that the reformation should
come from within and corrective
methods should he applied by industry
itself
The present evils Of modern in
dustrial development are coming TO
be recognized. There is the beginning
of the same resentment toward con-
solicitations of industry that was so
evident against the combinations Of
the early '9hs.
IF then, there is to he carrying
out of the express desire of the bust
ness man that Government be kept
out of business. 1t Is incumbent upon
the business man and banker that he
so conduct his business that there he
no necessity for the intrusion of Gov
eminent into business.

ASPARAGUS is
STILL HOLDING
Thirty Six Cars Roll So
Far Peak Passed
This Week

Thirty six carloads of asparagus
have been shipped from Kennewick
so far this year, and the product is
still being taken at $1.75 per 12-lb.
crate, fob. Kennewick. Farmers and
others interested in this earliest Ken
newick crop are very well pleased
with the tonnage and the price re-
ceived so far this season.
In the newer patches and in those
which were not heavily fertilized this
year the peak of the cutting has been
reached. On the well kept older places
the cuttings are still increasing in
volume. Markets that were hard to
get into last year are calling for
shipments this year and come back
in every case with repeat orders, ac-
cording to the local shippers. So far
no complaint has been received rela-
tive to poor quality and no deduc-
tions have been made.
1t is probable that the acreage in
asparagus in this valley will be still
further increased next year.

BIG CROWD IS
DUE SAYS GOSS
Grange Convention Plans
are Being Worked Out
Need Lots of Rooms

That the state grange convention
to be held in Kennewick this year
will be the largest in point of at
tendance of any ever held is the opin-
ion of A. S. Goss, who was here the
first of the week. The matter of the
weather is the determining factor,
he said, and if Kennewick dishes up
her usual brand for the last Of May,
the town may look for thousand TO
twelve hundred visitors for that week.
Details for the entertainment of
this number Of people are well in
hand. The Commercial club commit
tee, working with the county grang-
es is busy securing beds for the Wis
itors. Every available room is want
ed, both in the hotels, roonling hous-
es and the private homes. Tents and
cots are being rented in wholesale
lots, but there is still shortage re-
ported by the committee. Anyone
who can rent a room, bed or cot for
that week is asked to notify r. @.
Macmahon.

PASCO GOLFERS
COMING SUNDAY
Two Dozen Divot Diggers
Coming Over to Play
Local Course

A couple dozen golfers from Pasco
are coming over Sunday to play on
the Kennewick course. The match will
start at nine in the morning and ev-
ery golfer on this side Of the river
is urged to be on hand.
The improvements made this year
make the Kennewick course equal to
that of any small town in the state
and the Pasco men have had so many
fine reports of it that they are keen
to play. Players will be matched as
nearly as possible according to their
ability and the contest should prove
highly interesting.
|, More work has been done on the
greens during the past week and the
fairways have been moved and 9TH
erwise improved. The course right
now is in better shape than ever be-
fore and some excellent scores should
be made Sunday.

DATES
ARE GIVEN OUT
Inspector Hill Says First
Spray Should be Done
by Tenth of Nav

Careful investigation in this dis
trict has shown that the peak of the
first brood of codling moth will come
between the twentieth and twenty
fourth of May and that a smaller
percentage will be Matched between
the 10th and 18th Of May. Consider
ing the present excessively warm
weather there will be enough early
worms to have spray on as soon
as possible now.
A schedule of sprays for this first
brood considering the stages of win
tering worms will be series of ten
day sprays finishing the first by May
10th, finishing the second on May 20,
and finishing spray to catch the
stragglers on June first. The above
dates are all finishing dates, that As.
all sprays to be finished on these
dates. Individual cards will be sent
to the growers later.

BERRIES COME
ON WEEK EARLY
Fine Weather Brings Color
on Kennewick's Most
Famous Crop

Ripe Strawberries on the market
on the 22nd of April is the record
established this year. This is just
one full weelS earlier than the record
established last year when all pre-
vious records for earliness were shat
tered. .-..'a q. - &. .a
Crate shipments however were not
made until the 9th even this year,
when two full crates We're assembled
from the small pickings from the var
ious patches from Richland to Hover.
The first hallocks brought to Kenne-
wick were from the patches of A. G.
Tuttle and VIM. Malstrom.
Four crates were shipped yesterday
and the Three Rivers association ex-
poets to have ten crates for shipment
on today's trains. The acreage this
year has not increased over last ow-
ing to the fact that vigorous plants
Were not to be had this spring. The
winter kill that was experienced last
year caught the berries at Hood Riv-
er as well as here. However, there
will be considerable increase in the
paintings this year, and especially
if the heating experiments prove
success.
This is Kennewick's best crop in
the opinion of many, and certainly it
is the one that has the most COM
munity advertising value connected
with it. The asparagus shipments
have brought much early money into
the district, but Mr.. Lampson is of
the opinion that there is more money
to be made in early strawberries than
in any of the valleys other products.

SERVE BERRIES
AT LUNCHEON
Club Members Get First
Fruit - Early Produc-
tion Records Shattered

Ordinarily the first Strawberries
of the season are shipped out and
the Kennewick people must content
themselves with the later pickings
This year the Commercial club cele-
brated the opening of the shipping
season with a strawberry banquet
right at the beginning of the season
Strawberries and cream formed the
piece de resistance at the regular
luncheon today.
And not only Strawberries. Manag-
er H. w. Desgranges of the Big Y
promised the members of the club
that next week they would have
served to them the first ripe cher
ries of the season. And in a couple
of weeks more the first of the early
apples will be ready for use. Records
for early production are being busted
for nearly every kind of fruit this
year.
Fall wheat is heading out in April
in the Horse Heaven country. Barley
has already headed. Wheat farmers
are planning to start harvesting work
this year three to four weeks ahead
of the usual time. It's a great life.

GET THE FIRST
POTATO BEETLES
Hill Says Prompt Action is
Necessary to Control
Newest Pest

A lone female beetle is capable Of
producing between 1900 and 1900
eggs. Every beetle picked from the
patch this week or next week will
destroy more bugs than three or four
sprayings. It is of great Importance
to pick the first few BEETLES that ap-
pear in the patches. Many growers
are waiting for the soft shells to ap-
pear before starting control measures.
This is mistake. Pick the few hard
shells while the vines are small. Look
under the leaves and destroy the egg
masses that are laid. Any plant that
a bug is found On will very likely
have bunch of eggs on it.
This bugging can be done in much
