TURN WATER
OFF JUNE THIRD
Weeds Must be Cleaned Out
to Keep Ditch at Full
CAPACITY

The canal system has continued at
full head and with generally salts
factory deliveries for the past month,
says w. C. Muldrow. The green moss
was cleaned out of the main canal by
the sulphate dose of May 18th but
is beginning to show again in the
laterals. The water weeds are as
early as other crops this season, and
are growing generously. 1t was nec-
essary to chain lateral 2 Monday, the
17th-the first time claiming has
been done in May since 1920. Some
scythe work was done above Hover
and lateral one is being worked over
today, Thursday.
Weeds are showing in the main
canal and will cause rapid rise as
soon as the weather turns warm. As
the main canal is practically up to
high water lines now, there is little
margin of safety for weed-rise, Hence
it seems best not to take a chance
on break such as the Wenatchee
canal had last week, but to figure on
a turnout in the first four days o.
June.
If the weather changes to warm
and bright, the turnout will be made
on the evening of June End. So please
figure on getting the important spots
wet in time to be without the water
on June 8, A, and 5.

Golden Rule Store Closed
Tuesday Night-NeW
Stocks are Ready
KENNEWICK STORE
Is NO. 699 IN CHAIN
Manager Sprague Tells Of
History of Organization
Twenty Years Ago

Next Saturday morning the doors
Of a nationwide institution will op-
en- here when the j. G. Penney COM
pany takes over the Golden Rule
store. long a merchandising institu-
tion Of this city. The Kennewick
PENNY store will be the six hundred
ninety-ninth in the string of 745
stores in the ID states where the Pen,
ney company now operates.
Located in the telephone building,
the new store will be situated at al
most the exact center of the business
activities of the town, being at the
junction of the three main travelled
arteries of the community. The new
store with it's ample space and good
lighting is this week humming with
activity after it's long spell of idle
ness. The fine display windows, sur
rounded by the newly painted front
in the distinctive Penney yellow, adds
greatly to the mercantile appearance
Of the town.
From small beginning the Pen
ney chain of stores has grown to vast
proportions. Last year the gross bus
mess of the combined stores amount
ed to over $91, 100000, said Mr.. R.
W. Sprague, in commenting upon the
new establishment. Full of enthus-
iasm, Mr.. Sprague explained the his
tory Of this huge enterprise. Back in
1902, a young man started small
store in an unprepossessing town of
Kemmerer, Wyoming. He had five
hundred dollars of his own and fifteen
hundred hundred dollars Of borrowed
money invested in this enterprise.
Two partners who lived in another
part Of the state had likewise in
vested two thousand dollars. James
C. Penney, for this was the name of
the young man, was to furnish all
the labor.
The first Penney store was rude
affair, as modern stores go. But thru
steadfastness of purpose, good mer-
chandising and a spirit Of fair play
the store prospered. It is. coinci-
dence that this first store was called
The Golden Rule. From it has grown
the vast organization Of over seven
hundred stores in the chain today,
scattered from ocean to ocean and
from the Great lakes to the Gulf.
Several unique policies are. main
tanned by the Penney stores. For in
stance no sales are ever held.
Every manager of the Penney
stores has served severe appren-
tlceship learning the methods Of mer-
chandising of this concern and study
Ing its principles and ideals. Then
every manager owns an interest in
the store which he directs. This
makes every Penney store local as
well as national institutional.
K. w. Sprague comes to Kennewick
from Pendleton as manager of the
local store. In commenting upon its
opening Mr.. Sprague said: "Our 42
stores now operating in this wonder
1ul state of Washington are evidence
OF our service to the public. Here in
hennewick we shall do our very best
TO maintain our standards in every
respect"

FRUIT OUTLOOK
is EXCELLENT
Weather Observer Reports
No Frost Damage in the
Lower Valley

Fruit prospects for the kennewicil
district are excellent this season, ac-
cording to Albert w. Cook of the
United States weather bureau today.
Mr.. Cook has been stationed here
since the first danger from frost ear
ly this spring, and is leaving shortly
for relief work in Wyoming.
According to Mr.. Cook there has
been no commercial damage to any
of the soft fruits in the valley be-
low Benton City owing to the heating
of the orchards. However, in the few
isolated tracts that were not heated
the frost damage was severe.
A year ago 45 per cent of the cher
ry acreage was heated, and the ac-
reage so protected produced ninety
per cent of the cherries harvested in
the district. This year Mr.. Cook has
not yet turned in his complete figures
but estimates that the percentage has
! increased largely. In the Kennewick
section forty per cent of the soft
fruit is now being heated. This year
there We're 755 acres of orchard ir
Benton county protected by heating
,Of this number 400 acres were in sofi
fruit and 355 acres were apples.
Arrangements have been made will
the county commissioners for contin
uing the frost warning service mex
year and Mr.. Cook will return Il
Kennewick in the spring to carry OF
this work. The annual report of th'
work and findings of the weather bu
lreau man will be printed in full in al
Iearly issue of this paper.

OPENS SEASON
WITH A WIN,
ELY BASE BALL BOYS WIN
FIRST GAME SUNDAY
SCORE 3 TO 1.

In bitterly fought ball game at
Biwabik last Sunday, the veteran
Ely team outguessed and outplayed
their rivals to win ball game that
was characterized by skillful play
ing rather than the usual early sea-
son clumsiness.
Neither team could score during
the early stanzas of the game,
effective pitching in the pinches and
sensational fielding at the critical
moments keeping the runners on
the bases In the seventh inning
however Ely scored run and an
other in the eighth, but Biwabik
cut the two run lead to a one run
advantage in their half of the
eighth by securing their first and
only score of the game. Ely scored
again in the ninth, while Biwabik
was held scoreless even though they
were increasingly encouraged by the
pleading home town fans.
Starkman for Ely with Anthony
behind the bat, pitched in mid-sea-
son form, allowing only five hits and
but one walk. He had perfect con-
troll and weathered the tight places
with ease. Hogan, his rival who
was almost as good allowed the Ely
batsmen but six hits and two walks
A one hand catch by j. Urick of
Biwabik in center field robbed Can
ton of hit and a possible home
run in the second inning. Mattson,
Biwabik right fielder, was the field
ing star of the game, handling seven
chances without a slip while Hogan
| of Biwabik and Lawrence of Ely
led in batting, each getting two hits.
Ely this season has formidable
lineup, the team having secured the
services of three star Virginia play
ers of last season, viz: Anthony. a
veteran catcher; Hendy, an effect
i've shortstop and a fleet base run
ner and Canton one of the few star
pitchers on the range. Lawrence,
the hard-hitting center fielder of
last season, is back in the lineup
and celebrated his appearance by
| getting two of the six hits made by
Ely last Sunday, while Harold Chinn
is expected back from Idaho about
June 18th. Ely's lineup this season
looks like the best in years, and
should go far in proving :, their
superiority over other baseball mines
of the range and surrounding terri
tory

summary of the game follows:

TWO HARBORS MAYOR LOSES
TEMPER AND EVIDENCE

Those who know Mayor Brickley
best know that he has a bit of Irish
temper, and they no doubt will
smile when they learn that he let
it get away from him one day last
week, and at the same time let
bootlegger get away by virtue there
of. The Mayor was out at Lars
mont with the fire-fghting equip
ment and an enterprising wet-goods
merchant appeared on the scene
with a gallon of moon, thinking TO
refresh the fire-fghters and at the
same time add to his wealth. One
of the boys whom he approached
with his wares declined, but thought
it would be a good joke to direct
him to the Mayor as a prospective
customer. Mr.. Brickley took the
jug alright, but that is where he
lost his temper and dashed it onto a
rock and ordered the fellow taken to
the Jail at Two Harbors. Arraigned
the next morning the fellow enter
ed plea of not guilty and when it
came to producing the evidence, 1T
dawned upon the Mayor that his
terrible temper and a convenient
rock were responsible for the re-
lease of perfectly guilty bootleg
ger.-Two Harbors Chronicle.

manifest that the fleet is going -
be pretty active to move as much
ore as in 1925 season, when the re-

The fleet will have to average S,000,-
100000 tons monthly from June /
to Dec. l, considered in round num-
bers, to match the record of last
season. That can be done with a
favorable fall.
But the effect of the low water is
a matter not to be overlooked, as

The larger class of boats aer carry
ing 5000 tons less per cargo
through the 500 locks now than they
did in 1920. For a large boat
carrying ore only, and coming no
light, this will make loss of co.
600 tons for the season. Such boats
make 30 trips per season, and some
of them have exceeded that number.
