wiring the While Bluffs postmaster
from Seattle this week, Joseph M.
Hawthorne, an attorney in the Title
& Trust Building in Seattle. said:
Il visited the State Fair at Yakima
last Saturday. Among the many
splendid exhibits which appeared
there, there were none that attracted
me quite SO much as the display of
numerous clusters of Tokay and, I
think, also, of Malaga grapes, which
appeared in the Benton County ex-
hibit.
II inquired what part of Benton
county they came from and was in
formed they were from White Bluffs.
I am, therefore, writing you with
the request that you send me the
names and addresses of a few of the
people in your vicinity. or elsewhere
in Benton county, who are raising
Tokay grapes, as wish to commune
cate with them"
Mr.. Hawthorne was directed to
write District Horticultural Inspector
E. E. Hill, who had charge of gather
ing the Benton county exhibit for the
Fair.
Towns and villages too small to
support individual gas plants may
soon have gas service from long dis
tance transmission system, according
to a report just made public by the
American Gas Association.
Recent conferences by engineers
in charge of the production and dis
tribution show gas can be carried
ESQ miles in gas mains up to AZ inches
in diameter" says the report. "When
an economic solution to Iong-distance
transmission problems is found. the
gas industry will Immediately be able
to take over great portion of the
cooking and heating loads in those
small towns which do not have gas
service.
"study of the geography Of the
country reveals the fact that many
of the small towns are within reJa-
lively short distances of gas wells
and gas companies will soon be able
to extend gas mains that will serve
hundreds Of square miles,"

Winston and Russell Brown of
