the expenditure of the road and
bridge fund in the Improvement of
the Yakima road in Benton county,
beginning at the county line at the
Barrel springs hill and coming as far

law governing the spending of this
particular fund provides that the con-
s.ruction must start or finish at a
town or trading point and wheather
it can be spent on the Yakima road
at that particular place will depend
on wheather Cold Creek can be es-

quite sure that this can be done.

''We feel that your section should
produce tomatoes early and believe we
could put in II strain of early tomatoes
and get away feom the blight.

did crowd Of growers and it is doubt.

were interested and attentive was in
dictated by the questions asked the

ciiard thinning in the forenoon, had a
rather pleasant day meeting old
friends. Mr.. Powell was district hor-
ticulturist in Benton county years ago

young. He still does "a little horti-
cultural work but spends most Of his
time now on his farm near Yakima.
