there is any great profit to be
made from selling cream. If one
sells enough cream and butter to
break even on expenses they do
well, the SKINNED milk and man
ure is their profit. This sandy land
of ours below town must have lots
of manure if it be made to pro-
duce heavy. OF course, many farm
ers cultivate two acres of land
to get six or eight tons of spuds
when they could get the same a.
mount off of one acre if they went
at it properly. Unless one owns
cows it is hard for him to get
barnyard manure in sufficient
quantities. Some people use pa
tent commercial fertilizers, but
they aren't as good and besides
they cost too much. This year

Kempe tells an interesting tale
of his experience with cabbage
this spring. As kind of expert
ment he put about one-fifth of an
acre in. The early heads sold high
and were on the market before
any from either California or Wal
la Walla. A few days later he re-
celved eight cents per pound, then
four cents and now three cents.
He received about SIS from cab
bage and it did not cost more than
$25 to produce it.
OF course the foregoing stories
may sound a good deal like the
bulletins of an agricultural col
lege, but if one cares to pay a visit
to the Kempe home he will see
that it is not a college at all, but
darned neat ranch. The owner
does not claim to possess any sixth
or seventh sense, and-expresses
disgust that other ranchers don't
do all that he does and more.

Ten Years Hence
A more palatial theatre than is
possessed by any of the lesser
towns of the Northwest will soon
be numbered among the attrac-
tions of Kennewick. A building
that will cost well up into the hum
dreds of thousands of dollars
picture palace that will rival in
Beauty, either the Famous Play
ers-Lasky or Fifth Avenue house
of Seattle. This was the informa
ton given out today by the presi-
dent of one of the largest motion
picture syndicates in the United
States. He pointed out that the un-
paralleled growth of this town
during the last ten years and the
certaint yof further increase in
size during the next few years,
made such an enormous expendi-
ture justifiable. The building site
has been purchased and construc-
ton will be started as soon as the
lease of the present occupant ex-
pires and the old building can be
wrecked.

Few days have ever passed more
quietly or been more uneventful in
Kennewick than was the Fourth of
July. The whole town took a holt
day and each individual sought
recreation according to his own
inclinations. While a number of
Kennewick people attended the
grange celebration at the city park
in Richland, small picnic parties
were the order of the day and
there was hardly a suitable spot
along the Columbia and Yakima
rivers that did not harbor small

Takes the "Sfdfic" out
Of Buying


There's peculiar bug sweeping the world today
that has already sunk its teeth into millions.
It's name is Radio.
No one is immune If it hasn't bitten you yet, your
time will come. For some months you,will lie abso-
lutey helpless in its power You may later recover
from its effects sufficiently to go about your daily
tasks and attend to your social duties but you will
never fully recover.
The experience is indescribably delightful and the
pleasure never-ending Gift There's quite an eff
in radio.
We repeat, the pleasure is Understanding, if you get
good radio receiver and good accessories
And you overcome the sif' by careful reading Of
radio advertising. Like everything else good radio
not pay to advertise the worthless.
Advertising will help you in radio as it helps you in
selecting intrinsic value in everything else You
rest assured that anything which is continuously adj
vertised, whether it be radio set of aspara
gus, has stood the test.
Radio works best in the dark-but there's no need
to buy in the dark.
