WATER TURNED OUT
TOO MUCH RAIN LATELY

Owing to recent abundant rains,
that have thoroly wet the lands
throughout the valley, the water
will be turned out of the canals of
the Columbia Irrigation district
today. Conditions will be carefully
watched and the water will be
turned back in if the weather is
such to cause the need of later
irrigation.
There will be no real need of
irrigation for the next few days,
at least. and much damage would
be caused by seepage water if the
canals continued to carry unneces-
sary water into the valley. IF fur
ther rains should come at inter-
walls, as occurred in 1928, it may
not be necessary to reopen the head.
gates. This would result in a SUBJ
stantial saving in operating costs
and enable an early and affective
fall cleanup. Water users are re-
quested to confer with the man.
ager from time to time, in order
that he may keep fully posted on
the situation as it affects the lands
of the district.

THE PIGSKIN
Hermiston to Play Here
Friday-Better Show
ing is Promised

The first of the football games
scheduled for the home grounds
will be played tomorrow afternoon
on the high school field, between
Hermiston and the locals. Coach
Smith, who took his youthful ag-
gregation up to Grandview last
week, says that this game will be
an entirely different affair from
that staged upriver, inasmuch as
there will be some scoring con-
nected with it. Last weeks game
was scoreless tie.
Mr.. Smith appeared before the
Kiwanis luncheon Wednesday and
told about the splendid cooperation
he was receiving from the towns
people this year and of what fine
material he had in the school with
which to build a team. He is of
the opinion that the Kennewick
school will have a record before
the season is closed of which the
whole town may well be proud.
The game tomorrow has been
given considerable publicity, al
ready and the pupils at the school
will stage pep rally tonight to
attract further attention to the
game. There has been some talk
of closing the stores during the
game, but this has been left to
the individual merchant. Most of
those who can get away for the
afternoon will be on the side lines
to root for the home team.
The Hermiston team is touted
as a husky aggregation and the
game will not be a walk-away by
any means.

MAIL ROUTE EXTENDED

Beginning Saturday the mail
carrier on Route No. 1 will have
an extended route as follows: The
route will leave the old route just
east of the S. P. & S. depot, run
ming north to the Columbia river,
thence along the river and west to
the paved highway Gave. c. and
thence along Ave. C to the corner
of Washington street and Ave C.
connecting with the city delivery
limits at that place. This will give
free delivery service to an addi-
tional twelve families. This extern
sion was promised during the lat
ter part of August and has been
anxiously fwaited by the resi-
dents of the section affected.

SO THE KIDS
FAILED TO GO
Storm Held Up Fliers in
Race while Spectators
Sat and Shivered

Insofar as Kennewick was con-
cerned the Spokane, Portland air
races were the bunk Half the town
made preparations Tuesday to go
to Pasco and see the end of the
first lap of the cross country race.
The storm, however, prevented
many of them from making the
trip, altho there was a good smat-
tering of Kennewick people who
sat all afternoon in the cold and
rain waiting for the planes to ar
rive. Come to find out they didn't
even leave Spokane on account of
the weather conditions. The start
was made the following morning.
Preparations had been made to
have the school busses take all the
local school children above the
fourth grade over to see the sights.
The rain prevented the start, altho
the Pasco school children were TAX
en- to the field to shiver and shake
thruout the afternoon. A collec-
tion was taken from the towns
people to pay for the busses and
the bridge tolls. the money being
returned to the donors Wednesday.
1t is estimated that between
three and four thousand people
were on hand at the Pasco air port
during Tuesday afternoon. No
word was sent from Spokane tell
ing Of the postponement of the
race and many of the fans waited
until nearly dark before giving up
hope of seeing the filters.

NACHEs APPROVED

The state highway department
has approved the plans for the fin
al connecting line on the Naches
pass highway. The work will con-
sist of clearing, grading and drain

creek to Normile grade, accord
ing to ]. w. Hamilton, district
highway engineer. The stretch
is the last one to be graded in
order that motorists from the Yak
ina valley may drive to the sum-
NIT over graded road and is held
to be a key job by Hamilton. This
new road over the mountains is
the pet road development of the
Yakima people and when complet-
ed will shorten the route to the
coast.

BALD PEACH
DEVELOPED
Valley Man Produces New
Variety-New Apples
Give Great Promise

New varieties of fruit. which
promise to replace present we'll
known kinds, have been recently
developed from the outcropping Of
seeding stocks, according to Prof.
0. M. Morris, of the state college
department of horticulture.
E. Fl. Zickler, Buena, prominent
Yakima valley orchardist. has de-
veloped a peach on his place that
has all the best qualities of the
present variety and in addition is
almost free from down. A box of
these peaches was recently sent
the state college horticulture de-
partment and the fruit is being
closely studied.
Another outcropping which bids
fair to become a favorite is a nee
tarine sent to the college from the
Columbia and Okanogan Nursery
Co. at Wenatchee. Twice the or
dinary size of the present variety,
the specimen also deviates abso-
lutely from nectarine heritage in
that it is covered with a short,
fine down. 1t is considered by local
experts as an entirely new variety.
The new red Delicious apple is
fast gaining in popularity and may
In time force the present striped
variety out of competition, thinks
Professor Morris. Among other
new seeding developments which
are receiving favorable comment
are the Black Stamen, Chelan and
Palouse apples.
practically all the commercial
varieties of apples, pears, peaches
and plums now found in the north
west originated east of the Missis-
sippi so these new seedlings may
be better adapted to local climatic
conditions than present favored
varieties" Prof. Morris says.

MOTHER BOAT
is LAUNCHED
A. F. Brown Buys Speed
ster-Hydroplane Still
in The Dry Docks

With the elite of the town TAX
ing to the water for their relaXa-
ton and fun the need for a mar
inc section becomes pressing. Last
among the worthy citizens Of our
esteemed village to become a mo-
tor boat fan and owner is none
other than A. f. Brown, local f.
nancier. Mr.. Brown became, satu-
rated with the desire for boat
while helping his son Burns and
Frank Maupin build their now his
torically infamous craft, "Aimee."
As everybody around here ought
to know by this time Aimee was
originally intended to be a hydro
plane, but merely developed into
a hybrid. Experts decided at the
last minute that the fighting Ford
four motor, to which is attached a
specially equipped Bosh magnetic,
did not have speed enough for a
hydroplane so the propeller was
put down beneath the surface Of
the water and the boat automat-
ically became a sea sled. And its
owners take time off to remark
that the shedding has been pretty
hard ever since.
However, the boat, its motor, or
the owners are not entirely to
blame for the misfortunes which
have overtaken it. In the first
place it was somewhat handicap
ped by the name. (We wish at this
time to make a correction. Last
week we said that Bert Plowman
christened the vessel, breaking
bottle Of milk from Hill's dairy on
the prov. Excuse it please. Bert
didn't crack bottle of milk,
bottle Of pop, or anything else on
the boat. In fact the only thing
Bert cracked at the time he did
the naming was a broad grin and
couple of jokes). Then the build
ers of Aimee were professionals,
-at bottle pool-that had sonle-
thing to do with it.
To return to the subject of cur
first paragraph the boat which Mr..
Brown recently acquired is about
the longest and speediest craft ev-
er seen in local moisture. The boat
came from the ship yards of Spo-
kane, is 80 feet in length, is equip
ped with a Buick engine capable
of developing a speed of about
twenty miles per hour, and would
carry ten or a dozen passengers.
The boats name, "Long Liz" is ap-
propriate and euphonius if not ar
tistic.
The boat Of Mr.. Browns is q
mighty dangerous one too. We
have the unqualified word of sew
eral citizens of the town that such
is the case. Ralph Matthews and
Russell Day have refused all IN
vitations to take ride and Ralph
is quoted as saying that anybody
who would ride in that boat would
have nerve enough to marry a
movie STAR. Marvin Carnahan,
himself boating enthusiast. was
beguiled into taking a little spin
about the time the boat was given
its trial flight on the Columbia.
Marvin, having been a football
player in college and accustomed
to staring death in the face. sur
vived, but several persons whose
veracity cannot be questioned saw
that he couldn't do any horse shoe
ing for three days afterwards.

before sunup and sunset-not half
an hour after. The hunting days
shorten about ten minutes at each
end of the day each week. Open
ing day the official time is 5.3O
am. to 5:39 pm.
There are only seven days this
year when it is permitted to bag
upland birds. October 16, IL. 10,
%, 26, 80 and Nov. 2. This starts
with Sunday and Monday fol-
lowed by Sunday and Wednesdays
only for two weeks.
The bag limits have not been
changed, three Chinks and five
