Through he Static

Volume was strong last night. It's too bad, but the volume included static as well as station signals. There was considerable snapping and cracking up to o'clock. when the static took it's place and belted out noise for the rest of the evening. It became louder as the night grew older.
 They tell us now that noise is ere ated in radio receivers by the ex- haust steam from locomotives and by the static" from machine belts in factories, What next?
 WEAF, New York. continues to come in very loud and we look for ward to nights full of static this winter. when one will be able to hear WEAF in addition to WBZ and WTIC.
 Bert Dolan's orchestra furnished the dinner dance music from Wl5L last evening and rendered as re- quest number. "Ain't She Sweet?' That's songs just about done, if you ask us, request or no request. George Benton, saxophonist, played Sleep. Baby, Sleep" We'll executed. Later in the evening the station got into terrible mixup with another broad caster and we found it impossible to bring in either one of them. WBZ

LET YAKIMA ROAD CONTRACT

Ths Bsnton county commissioners
in session this week, accepted the bid
Of A. C. Wilsonof Yakima for the con-
strucrion of permanent highway No.
Is, which extends from Cold Creek
southwest to the Yakima county line
Mr.. Wilson'S hid of $lO,998 was the
lowest one submitted. The contract
provides for the grading and surfac
ing of little over four miles as u
permanent highway. This will not
carry the road quite to the Yakima
county line, but with the $1,000 or
more still in the fund the commission
ers expect, through the letting of a
supplemental contract, to finish the
road to the county line. Mr.. Wilson
has until June l, 1927, to complete
the contract, but he told the commits
sione,s he expected to be at work on
the job in the near future.

500. Mr.. Rhinehart expects to be here
next week to take charge of tha prop
crty, Mr.. Robinson and family plan
to leave Saturday for Los Angeles,
California, where they will be with
Mrs. Robinson's mother until the end
of the school year. Mr.. Robinson says
he is undecided at this time as to just
what he will do. He expects to look
AROUND in California and Arizona and
may catch on with some Of the mar
keting agencies there if he finds some
thing suitable. Mr.. Robinson came
here from Walla Walla, where he was
engaged in truck farming and pur-
chased the state settlement tract of

taken an active part in cooperative
marketing, having considerable organ
ization ability along that line.

MUST WASH APPLES TO
REMOVE SPRAY RESIDUE

One of the interesting subjects up
for discussion at the meeting OF the
Yakima District Horticultural society
in Yakima last week, was the removal
OF the stray residue from the apples.
A great deal of interest on the part
Of tho 800 growers present was shown
. in the methods used in the removal Of
spray by wiping. Henry Hartman of
the Oregon Agricultural college in an
address, said that wiping ordinarily
does not bring the percentage of resi-
due below the tolerance and that only
in cases where the spray program was
especially light is it possible to use
that method. In addition to not being
efficient in removing the spray, 1t
takes off some Of the surface wax OF
the apples and as result they do not
keep in storage as well as those un-
wiped.
Washing, therefore, appears to be
the method that will give results and
hydrochloric acid in dilute solution
was found to be- the most efficient
solvent.
Its advantages are that it is the best
all around solvent to remove all kinds
Of residue; that it is efficient at low
temperatures; that it does not injure
fruit as it has no action upon the wax
of the apple; that it is fairly cheap;
that it is not an oxidizing agent; that
it is volatile and leaves no trace of
itself; that it can readily be washed
away from the fruit with water; that
it is not disagreeable material to use
and that it leaves the fruit in clean
and attractive condition.
This solvent remains effective for
long time. When sprayed on the
fruit it takes off about ninety per cent
Of the residue in ten seconds, which
IS very fortunate as there is little de-
lay or loss of time in treatment.
1t was found that it is not a disin-
fecfa1t. Where care was taken to
keep out decayed fruit there was no
decay or blue mould resulting from
the treatment. However, when ap-
pies that had stood out in the or
chard in rain and (which contained
some decay were treated there re-
suited further decay from the in
fection.
It was believed at one time that
AOA AOAALeA0ShyoC WOA0 plOVC Ola GA
fective sterilizer, but the results were
not satisfactory and the matter of
disinfecting is as yet unsolved, he said.
Observations were had of 1000 cars
of apples and pears washed in the
Medford district. The cost was found
to be 4 cent a box. The acid is used
in an extremely dilute solution and
one gallon of the acid will treat 500
to 900 boxes of fruit. The acid costs
20 cents to rs cents a gallon in large
quantities.
DR.. Head in his lecture on treating
apples and pears for market used
lantern slides and threw on the screen
tables giving results of his tests. OBJ
servations o4 the use of the brogdex-
ing method employed in the Big Y
plant in Kennewick were made. He
showed pictures of some experimental
machinery used in the laboratory in
Pullman.

NO PRIEST RAPIDS
DAM FOR TWO YEARS

The Washington Irrigation & De-
velopment company, the concern that
holds the license for the development
of the Priest Rapids power site, filed
an application the first of the week
with the Federal Water Power Leas-
ing Board for An extension of time in
which to begin construction, accord
ing to word received here. The pres
ent license expires March !, 1927.
The Board, under the water power
leasing Act, may, if it sees fit, grant
an extension for period not exceed
ing two years. Only one extern
sion is permitted under the Act.
If the licensee fails to begin con-
struction in the time allowed. the IL
cense is automatically cancelled and
the site reverts to the government.
This clause was inserted in order to
prevent power companies from tying
up all of the available power sites.
In the absence of any application
from competitive company for the
Priest Rapids site, it is expected the
extension asked for will be granted.
In that. event, the Washington Irriga-
tion & Development company must
begin construction at Priest Rapids by
March l, 1929, or forfeit it's license.
