We LOSE A GOOD MAN
WHEN JOE BONN MOVES

A good crowd attended the auction
sale Of personal property at the F..
]. Bonn residence last Saturday after
noon and between $500 and $400 was
realized from the sale. Mr., Bonn
has leased his residence in town to
L. L. Perry and was in Yakima
Tuesday making arrangements to
move his family there some time
.,ext week.
He is planning to have big
sale next week to dispose of as much
of his, stock of merchandise as posi-
he. The balance he will move to
Yakima, where he will oper a store.
Mr.. Bonn has been resident of
White Bluffs since the first big de-
velopment started, here away back
in 1907, and he and his family have
many friends here who regret to have
them leave the valley but who wish
them every success in their new
location.
Coming here from The Dalles Mr..
Bonn with his brother, NJ A. Bonn,
purchased piece OF raw land and
set out the orchard that is now the
property of John McFee, building two
fine homes on the tract. He was
manager Of the old White Bluffs Mer-
camille company for short time
when that business was located in the
old town, and when it was sold to
S. D. Patterson to be moved to the
new town he was instrumental in
having The Produce company of
Kennewick open a store here which
he managed, both while it was
located in the old town and after it
moved into the building now occupi-
ed by the White Bluffs Trading
company.
When the Produce Company went
out Of business, Mr.. Bonn went into
the fruit game, being the local re-
preventative here of the Wenatchee
Valley Fruit Exchange and he was
with that firm when they built the
fruit warehouse now located just
south of the cold storage plant
The fruit game was not all ice
cream and strawberry shortcake and
after being in it few years Mr..
Bonn went back to his first love,
the mercantile business and opened
store of his own in a small way
in the Schuster meat market. His
business rapidly grew and expanded
and he was doing very well until
disastrous fire few years later re-
suited in severe losses. Undaunted,
however, he purchased from J. H.
Cole the Luimann store building just
east of the drug store, where he has
operated general store up to the
present time.
Always an optinist and booster,
Joe Bonn has always been found in
the crowd of people who are trying
to-. make the con,mhnity s-az better.
place in which to live and he will be
sadly missed by that crowd.

Rural Carrier w. S. Angle was in
Yakima Monday and Tuesday attend
ing the annual meeting of the State
Rural Letter Carriers association Of
which he is acting president. He drove
over each morning and returned in the
evening, being accompanied the first
day by Mrs. Angle and daughters
Sadie and Rena Belle and Effie and
Walter Mykol ano on the second day
by Mrs. Angle and Elizabeth.
Miss Eff;e Mykol and her BROTH
er, Walter, both had part In the
program Monday, Effie playing two
piano solos and Walter two selections
on the saxophone.
One of the interesting addresses
made at the convention was that of
DR.. John w. Summers, congress
man from this district, who was in
troduced by M. Angle.
DR.. Summers, says the Yakima
Herald, spoke to the point when he
told the carriers that they were the
representatives of the Federal gov
ernment. Many persons who live on
the rural routes accept the daily
service of the carriers without a
thought for the government which
they represent on their rounds. The
letter or paper in the box on the
gate-post becomes a matter of rou-
tine.
Back of the caily call of the mail
carrier, however, is vast system
of men and machines which must
function every minute of the day
without too great loss in money
and efficiency. The postal department
throughout is marvel of organiza-
ton.
Thousands of men are engaged
daily in the small task of collecting,
sorting and distributing millions of
letters, papers and parcels. Their av-
erage of accuracy is high. A great
part of their work-almost all OF 1t;
in facts service. When the rural
carrier drops message in the farm
er's box he completes an intricate
process of systematic collecting and
delivery which the receiver of the
message too often fails to appreciate.
Through the heat of summer
through the mud and rain of fall,
through the cold and snow of winter
and through the rain and
mud of spring the rural carer makes
his rounds. Only few times in the
year-if ever--does the weather stop
| him. He gets paid, of course to do
his work but he does not always get
enough pay to compensate him for
his zeal in performing service which
has done more than any other one
factor to draw the farm family closer
to the advantages enjoyed by the
cities and towns.
Undoubtedly, SO farmers out of 100
would be willing, if necessary to get
along without any other service than
the rural mail delivery.
Rural Carrier M. R. Slavens OF
Hanford was reelected secretary
treasurer of the state association, to /,
serve for the coming year.

SEVEN CARS EARLY FRUIT
ROLLED TO Date

Seven straight cars of mixed frrit
have been shipped 30 far this season
from White Bluffs. The shipments
have. consisted principally of early ap.
pies, apricots and early peaches. All oil
the cars have been shipped to Seattle
The fruit is hauled by the different
growers to the White Bluffs ware
house, where it is assembled and
loaded, each grower consigning his
fruit to whatever commission house in
Seattle he chooses.
The saving to the grower in these
carlot shipments over the express,
amounts to considerable sum. The
express rate to Seattle is $1.35 per 100
and the freight rate in carloads is
2eA cents per 100 pounds. This
difference between the freight and
express rates is in itself nice profit.
One Of the handicaps under which
this valley has operated for several
years with its early fruit has been the
lack of sufficient tonnage to ship in
carlots. Not only has this condition
resulted in heavy losses to the grower
in the transportation charges but it
has practically limited the shipping
market to Seattle, the dumping
ground of the whole northwest. Other
early fruit districts that have tonn-
age enough to ship in carlots seldom
send anything to Seattle. Most of
their stuff goes to Canadian or Middle
West cities and some even to Atlantic
searorts, and their returns as whole,
are much better.
The large number of cherry, april
cot, peach and Transparent apple
trees that are just coming into bear
ing in the valley should overcome the
old handicap-if the growers take ad-
vantage of the situation. Before the
arrival of another shipping season
it would seem to be sound business if
tree census were made of all the
early fruit in the valley, both of the
older trees and those coming into
bearing, together with list of the
various growers, SO that estimates OF
tonnage could be made, and, when
ever possible, carlot shipments be
planned. It might be well, also, to
give some thought to methods of
marketing as the selling is as inn
portant as the assembling of the
f,uit.
The cold storage plant is available
for the assembling of the fruit for
two or three days picking when it is
impossible to harvest a carload in a
twenty-four hour period and this
opportunity should not be overlooked.
Beginning with the cherries, through
all of the other soft fruit, including
Transparent apples, the Kennewick
district will show a much better av-
erage return than this valley, because
the growers there have learned the adj
vantages Of car j lot shipments and
have worked out fairly good market
ing system.

fine Jersey HERD GAINS
NATIONAL RECOGNITION

One of the very best Jersey herds
! in this valley, if not in the whole
of Eastern Washington, is the one
that is being built up by F. E.
Taylor on Sunnybank Ranch. Two
recent additions are Gr,Aymere Rose
and CIR aymere Frosty, purchased in
| June by Mr.. Taylor at the sale OF
Greymere Jerseys at Marion, Oregon.
The Jersey Bulletin, published at
indianapolis, Indiana, in speaking Of
this sale says in part:
"The Ora :ymere herd is well-known
not only in the Pacific Coast country,
but far beyond. In addition to Off
cial recorog made by cows from this
herd, Mr.. Gray submitted daily milk
records that showed that cows offered
for sale were doing exceptionally
good work under ordinary farm con-
ditions. The offerings were distrib-
uted to breeders of Oregon, Wash
ington and Idaho"
In listing the buyers at the sale the
bulletin, which is the official or
gan of the American Jersey Cattle
Club and widely read il the east,
says: From the White Bluffs fruit
farm district across the Columbia riv-
er in Washington came Mr.. Frank
Taylor who wants to add Jerseys to
his fruit farm"
Of the two new additions to the
Sunnybank herd, CIR, ynere Frosty.
has a record of 284.7 pounds of but

If there is anything in the old sup

follows both the 18th and Friday
the candidates who are getting ready
tor the fall fray declare the men who
delay will be the ones out OF luck.
In the early days of the direct prin-
ary long lines of waiting candidates
campee outside the registration Of
ficcs and fought for the head OF the
list. Subsequently the law was chang
ed to rotate the order in which
names are printed on the ballots and
there no longer is so much rivalry.
However many still aspire for first

The hot weather has brought a
heavy emergence of cooling moths.
From the 7th to the 10th of July an
average of 2o moths per trap were
caught each day, forty being taken
from one trap on the night of the
10th. With continued hot weather,
the eggs of these moths will begin
Matching within eight or ten days.
Unless your fruit is well covered, it
would be well to apply cover spray
to be completed not later than July
II. 1t is not advisable to use oil
at this time, owing to difficulty in
removing spray residue.

TALKING PICTURES
uEQE IN IANHIADV
I1EktE UV JHlVUAN /
Actors Win Be Heard, as Well
as Seen ON the Screen, at
Carolina Theatre
TIMING IS VERY ACcfRATE

Talking pictures will be offer
ed regularly at the Carolina
Theatre after the first of next
January. Arrangements for
the innovation were made by the
manager, E. G. Smith, when he
went to Greensboro Wednesday
to confer with the regional di-
rector of the Publix-Saenger
company.
The device by which the voices
of the characters in the picture
plays are reproduced is called
the vitaphone. The producers
claim that the pictures and the
sounds are synchronized with
such accuracy that the words
and the movements of the ac-
tors lips correspond exactly.
There is another invention,
with a similar. purpose, called
the movietone. In the vitaphone
voices are recorded on discs. in
the movietone they are recorded
on a substance that is combined
with the photograph film.
"Talkies" is the nickname
that has been given to the pic
lures in which the characters
are heard as well as seen, and
possibly the word will soon be
as familiar as movies" Re-
viewers and editorial writer's on
the big city newspapers have
engaged in a great deal of spe-
culation, recently, about the ef-
feet the new art may have upon
the simple speechless motion
picture play. Some writer's pre-
dict that it will relegate to obs
curity the numerous screen stars
who are beautiful but dumb.
1t is said that many a movie ac-
tress has her fortune entirely in
her face and that if she attempt
ed the task of learning and
speaking lines she would collapse
under the mental strain.
