TOURIST CAMP
ON HIGHWAY,
Five Cabins With Garages
Will Be Ready for Occu-
pancy in Ten Days; First
Unit Under Construction.

Five cabins with garages at
tached will be completed and ready
for occupancy within ten days at
H. L. McElroy's new tourist camp.
This is the first section of con-
.struction of the. camp which is be-
ing built on four acres on both
sides of the highway at the curve
on the approach to the Kennewick-
Pasco bridge.
A gas tank will he installed next
week in, the service station on the
south side of the highway. Day
and night service will be inaug-
urated in the spring and Mr.. Nc
Elroy contemplates building liv-
ing quarters on the south side soon.
The buildings on the south side
will be painted red and yellow and
on the north side the cabins will
be green and white. A fruit stand
which will display all of Kenne-
wick's choice products as they
come in season is planned for the
south side.
This will be one of the few camps
to have garages with doors in
which the car may be locked, ac-
cording to Mr.. McElroy. The cab
ms and the garages are each by
Is feet. There is folding bed
in each cabin with a good mattress
and springs, Mr.. McElroy says.
Tables in the cabins will also fold
against the wall. Each will be
equipped with a cook stove.
Four men are working on the
place now. 1T is planned to have
running water and all modern con-
veniences on the place in the
spring.
Before buying property on which
to locate in Kennewick, Mr.. and
Mrs. McElroy, who is his partner
in this venture, went into Canada
on an extended trip in which they
Investigated other tourist camps
and the possibilities of this line
of business. They plan an ultra
modern camp, which they antici-
pate will bring business to Kenne-
wick.

THIS SEASON
Robert Mackie, Manager of
Produce Co., Says Birds will
Cost Consumer Five Cents
Pound Less This Year.

Every boy should have a drum
stick to gnaw upon this Thanks
giving, according to Robert Mackie
manager of the Columbia Valley
Produce Company, who estimates
that turkeys will he five cents less
a pound to the consumer this year.
The government reports show
only four per cent increase in
production this year, but the esti-
mated increase in Washington is
25 per cent, in Idaho 20 per cent,
in California 80 per cent, and in
Oregon 35 per cent. Due to the
large number of young birds, Mr..
Mackie believes that the Thanks
giving market will be better than
the Christmas market.
In the Idaho pool, which was
sold last week, Is carloads of
turkeys were disposed of Novem-
Der IL, but the Christmas ship
ment will be 80 carloads. The
Idaho turkey pool brought Al 1-2
cents for young toms, 81 1-2 cents
for old toms. 40 1-2 cents for hens,
and 80 1-2 cents for No. 2 hens.
A pool sold in Oregon on the same
day brought 38 1-2 cents for No. i
toms and hens. The same pool
sold last year at a triffle over
four cents more.
The Columbia Valley Produce
company is paying 81 cents for
No. dressed turkeys at present,
which price compares favorably
with the pool prices and coast
prices as the turkeys must be ship
ped out of here by express due to
the fact that not a sufficient num-
Der are handled to send in carload
lots. Mr.. Mackie advises the tur-
key raisers to hold their immat-
ture birds.

MRS. SHANAFELT
COUNTY CHAIRMAN
Local Woman Appointed Head Of
Anti-TubercuIosis Christmas
Seal Sale

Mrs. q. H. Shanafelt has been
appointed chairman for Benton
county for the Christmas sale of
anti-tuberculosis seals. Materials
and supplies for the work have
been received by Mrs. Shanafelt
and are being distributed by her
to the various parts Of the county.
Mrs. Larry Oliver has been ap-
pointed to take charge Of the seal
sale for Kennewick and the distri-
button and sale will be under the
direction of the Women's club.
Christmas seals are sold annu-
ally by the Washington Tubercu-
losis Association to help with the
work of preventing the spread Of
&tuberculosis. The Washington
tuberculosis Association was or
ganized in 1906 and in 191O.a a con-
structive program along recogniz-
ed lines Of work was started.
In 1920 the tuberculosis (chest)
clinic service was established as an
activity of the Association, with a
tuberculosis specialist as examin-
ing physician. The clinics are di-
agnostic only, no treatment being
given. The service is extended to
those counties having the county
tuberculosis nursing service but no
sanitarium. Counties having san
atoria are furnished clinic service
through the physician in charge.
In 1927, approximately 1,5OO
persons presented themselves at
these free clinics for diagnosis.
Roughly divided, one-fourth were
found tubercular, one-fourth sus-
picious, one-fourth arrested cases
(liable to reactivation) and one
fourth non-tubercular.
