GOOD PRICES FOR ASPARAGUS

Lee M. Lampson, manager for the
Three Rivers Growers Association
states that the average price received
for asparagus this season was $lf5
for No. stuff and would net the
grower approximately $i.30, the
highest price ever received for grass
in this district, with one exception
Mr.. Lampson states that his asso-
ciation has sold 10000 crates this
season, 81 per cent of which was
shipped to distant points in carload
lots. This fact, Mr.. Lampson be-
lieves to be responsible for the
satisfactory prices received last year
the association handled about $4,000
crates with only 10 per cent of the
shipments going to distant markets.
"We even sold four cars in Toronto"
said Mr.. Lampson, which gives an
idea as to how we have expanded the
market for grass" He stated another
feature this year was tho long season
for asparagus shipments which COW
cred a period of SO days, compared
to IS or so days marketing in previ-
GUS years.

WANTED .--BUYERS FOR
PEACHES and JONATHANS

Prospects for good prices for Ell
berta peaches and Jonathan apples do
not look very promising at this time.
1t is expected that the Eiberta harvest
will begin next week and from the
present condition of the fruit, the
Jonathans will be ready about August
In searching around for the best
marketing connections, R. ]. Roberts,
L. Burns and Arthur Heidmann drove
down to Kennewick Monday to confei
with Lee M. Lampson to see if the
Three Rivers Growers association
would not extend the scope of it's prod
ucts to include Elbertas and Jona-
thans. They found Mr.. Lampson alb
sent on the Coast, but the local
manager of the Three Rivers told them
that the directors of the association
lad voted to confine the activities of
the association to the marketing only
of strawberries, asparagus and vegeta,
b,es, although it did this year take on
the marketing of the cherries of its
members. The White Bluffs delega-
ton also called on the chairman of the
board of directors, who gave the same
information. He also told them, how
ever, that Mr.. Lampson in the past
had taken on the marketing OF some
apples outside of the association and
that he might do so this year. He
promised to tell Mr.. Lampson on his
return of the visit of the White Bluffs
men and to suggest that he come up
here and talk the matter over with the
growers.
Mr.. Lampson has sent word that he
would meet the peach and Jonathan
growers at Liberty hall here tomor-
row, Saturday, at l:30 p. m.

LOOKS FOR FAIR PRICES

Optimism concerning the prospec
tive apple deal this season was ex-
pressed by William Joseph of the w.
Joseph company of New York, who
ARRIVED in Yakima yesterday from
Wenatchee, said Tuesdays Yakima
Herald.
Mr.. Joseph is no crepe hanger
With the shippers whom he visited
yesterday he left some stickers with
the words upon them, Don't worry"
II am for that motto 100 per cent"
said Mr.. Joseph. "The apple deal
will go good this year. The price
will mot be high, but the markets
will take all Washington apples.
II for one am ready to invest and
buy as in other years. would
advise, however, that the culls and
the fourth grade be kept at home
and that the grade be sold near
at home.
II am not afraid of the big crop.
The apples will all go into consump-
ton and there shall be export in
large volume. l have confidence in
the apple business. If I did not,
would not be in it."
Mr.. Joseph declared that this was
not business trip, but purely for
pleasure, and one he promised his
wife several years ago. They have
already visited California and will
go on to the Yellowstone Park. Mr..
Joseph said:
ut is wonderful state, but Wash
ington for me. I like the climate
here; it is in Washington that I do
business and, it seems to me that
people are more hospitable here than
in California.
II can't see why anyone should
be downhearted about the fruit bust
ness. l visited Yakima seven years
ago and note wonderful change.
Great storage plants have been con-
structed, fine homes built and fine
automobiles are being driven"

TO IMPROVE YAKIMA ROAD

When one or two more links are
taken care off, the old COW trail that
used to serve as road between this
valley and Yakima will be numbered
among those things that are in the
past. The final hearing on the petit
ton for grading and graveling the
eight and a half mile stretch between
the Cold Creek postofice and the
Yakima county line will be held be-
fore Benton county commissioners
next Tuesday, August 3. There is
about $4,000 in the fund that can be
used for this work, and for that
amount the county should get a good
job. This stretch is the only real
bad one now between White Bluffs
and Yakima.
Considerable pressure has also
been brought to bear ON the Yakima
county commissioners to persuade
them to include in their budget a
liberal allowance for surfacing as
much as possible Of the % mile
stretch between Mckee and the Ben
ton county line. At the request of the
White Bluffs Community Cluo, a
delegation from the Yakima Cham
ber of Commerce waited on the
Yakima commissioners Monday to
urge that this be done.
The commissioners told the delega-
ton they would provide for some
graveling but that it would be i'm
possible to allow a sufficient amount
to surface the entire 22 miles at this
time. They said, however, that
maintenance crew would be kept on
the job to maintain whatever part of
the % miles was left mgraveled, and
that their program would include the
ultimate graveling of the entire dis
tance.
