HAS QUARTER
MILLION LEFT
County Treasurer Spends
Over a Million Dollars
During Last Year

Benton county is quite an insti-
tuition and while none of us could
call 1927 anormal" year, yet the
county did an annual business in
excess of one million dollars. The
exact figures for the years re-
ceipts in the treasurer's office be-
ing $1,2S1, ,965.22. Of the total a.
mount there were ,072,919.36
disbursed, leaving on January first
this year a total cash balance in
the treasurer's hands of $209, ,045.-
sc.
Considered an "off" year, yet
the taxpayers of this county paid
in over half million dollars on
real estate and personal property.
the exact figures being $3.50, ,046.-
81. This amount is 1887 percent
of the total amount of taxes levied
for the year and is considered, ev-
en- in 'sgood" year, fair aver
age for current collections.
The total of miscellaneous gen.
eral receipts for the year amount
ed to S1S4,764.63. The delinquent
tax collections amounted to the
sum of $98,852.23. This is con-
sidered very good record for de-
inquencies. Irrigation collections
for both district assessments and
for the drainage total $248,922.62.
The disbursements from the
treasurer's office have ranged in
amounts from 20 cents to thirty
four thousand dollars. And there
is still nearly a quarter of mil
lion dollars left on hand.

BENEDIcTs TO ORGANIZE

Knowing that 1923 is a leap
year and that no young, unmarried
man can safely walk the streets of
Kennewick after dark, the bache-
lors of the town have decided to
organize for protection against
femininity, and by combining their
efforts they will seek to resist
(maybe) the charming smiles and
alluring glances of the fair sex.
The first meeting of the club
will be held this week, at which
time the most exalted and con-
firmed bachelor will be elected to
head the organization, a constitu-
tion discussed, and activities plan
ned. 1t is understood that the club
will be dedicated mainly to enter
tainment.

Special Services the Com
ing Week for Organic
ations-Mass Meeting
(Contributed)

Sunday marked the third week
of the great tabernacle campaign
now in progress in Kennewick
The building has been well filled
from night to night and unusua
interest has been manifest. The
evangelist, Art Pope, has been put
ting forth a challenge night after
night to the Christian forces ot
Kennewick and community. The
messages have been stirring, full
of appeal and interest. Rarely, il
ever, has Kennewick been privi.
legged to listen to speaker of this
young mans ability. His messages
teaming with earnestness and sim
cerity, have been delivered with a
power that impresses the most in
different listener. ... -=..
Several unusual new features
are added to the Kennewick cam
paign such as a great Bible con-
ference being conducted each af-
ternoon. Miss Marian Campbell
has the children well organized
and some mighty interesting pro-
grams will be presented from this
phase of the work. A great chorus
choir, under the leadership of Mr..
and Mrs. Johnson has been singing
the old fashioned gospel songs
which brings one back to the days
of old-fashioned revival meetings
Cottage prayer meetings are be-
ing conducted each morning and
the attendance is far beyond the
expectations of the committees. All
Indications point towards sue
cessful campaign.
A great program has been pre-
pared for the next two weeks. On
Tuesday night a large delegation
will be present from Finley and
Hover. Wednesday night is to be
known as Richland and young
peoples night when a capacity
crowd is expected. Thursday the
tabernacle will be visited by the
Ku Klux Klan. Friday night is
Commercial club night. Saturday
will be known as American Legion
night at which time a memorial
service in honor of those who
fought in the Worlds war, is be-
ing prepared.
Next Sunday, January 20 at 2:3C
a great mass meeting for men will
be held. The evangelist will preach
to men only, using his well known
sermon damaged Goods" At $3.50

INCREASE CAPITAL
OF THE BIG "Y'
Increase from 100000 to One
Million on 18th Birthday
Stock all Insured

The 18th annual meeting of the
Yakima Fruit Growers Association
was held at Yakima last Tuesday
and was the most largely attended
of any in it's history. The special
interest centered in the increase
of it's capital stock from 100000
to $1,000,000. Reports showed that
the organization had grown to the
maximum of its original capitali-
cation, all of it's. common stock,
which is the membership stock,
having been issued, and if the or
ganization was to continue to grow
it must increase its capital stock.
This was done without a dissent
ing vote. With continued normal
growth the present increase should
meet the needs of the association
for the next ten years.
The financial statement shows
the association in excellent shape.
It's investment in warehouses
and cold storage approximates
5000 with Indebtedness Of a.
bout one-third that amount, and
with a working capital of around
100000. Although the past sea-
son has been difficult one from
a warehousing standpoint due to
the short crop, the association will
close the season without the neces-
sity of raising it's handling charg-
es.
That the association is meeting
the requirements for which it was
organized was manifested in the
complete harmony that existed
and the vote of confidence express
ed in it's management.

HERE is SOME
PROPAGANDA
But Real Good Dope at
That Expert Urges us
to Eat More Apples

Apples are a great health pre-
server and should be included in
everyone's diet, according to Miss
Leila Wall Hunt, associate profes-
sor of foods and nutrition. She
describes the 'tking of fruits" as
a combination of refreshing acids,
substantial bulk and stimulating
juice.
"Let the body become sluggish
and no better physician can be
summone dto it's aid than a lib
eral apple diet" according to Miss
Hunt. ''Let the individual grow
anemic and the liver become tor
pid, no better medicine can be ad-
ministered than apples. Malic ac-
id, that great germ destroyer, is
the most prominent of its acids,
but its salts and phosphates are of
equal Importance in keeping the
stomach and intestines in health
full activity. An uncooked ripe ap-
pie eaten at night before retiring,
with a glass of water to follow it,
is one of the oldest of beauty and
health prescriptions, keeping the
digestive tract open and the COM
plexion clear.
investigations made by the de-
partment of agriculture show that
fresh fruits of all kinds make up
less than five percent of the diet
of the average American family.
1t should be 25 percent and will
be some day. This will be accom-
plished by training the home-mak-
er, that she may know just what
are the best foods"

ADOPT STANDARD
HI-WAY MARKERS
National Highways to have yell
low and Black Signs of VAR
iOus Shapes to Guide

Washington motorists travelling
in the future, over national high
ways will be guided by standard
yellow and black, federal road
markers, according to the Auto
mobile club of Washington which
reports that adoption of this type
Of sign is becoming general with
all states. Government officials
and safety engineers agreed upon
the new color scheme, light yel-
low background with black letters
and designated certain shapes OF
signs to signify different dangers
or warnings.
The octagonal marker is used to
indicate "stop" where such action
is necessary, the Automobile club
reports. Other commonly used
markers are:
Diamond shaped signs, usually
called "slow signs" to indicate any
condition inherent in the road it
self requiring slow speed and eau
ton on the part of the driver.
Circular signs are used as ad-
vance warnings at railroad grades.
Square signs, usually called
caution signs are used to indicate
any condition requiring caution
that is not inherent to the road
itself, but which is due to contig-
uous or adjacent conditions. Rec
tangular signs of various dimen-
sions are used to carry directions
and information of use or beneflt
to the driver.
Motorists should realize the
difference between the diamond,
or slow signs, and the square, OF
caution signs" say engineers OF
the automobile club. "The diamond
marker is for such warnings as
curves, turns, hills, narrow bridg-
es and narrow roads, while the
square marker designates places
that require caution such as school
zones, cross roads, side roads and
men working.
''The federal road marker plan
is designed as a standard for all
states So that motorists will De
familiar with warning and stop
markers everywhere along the
highways"

DUNBAR FILES
AGAINST ZENT
First Lineup in State Po
litical Scrap
Full Ticket

The first set-up for the unavoid-
able factional fight in the repub-
lican primary developed today
with the formal announcement by
Attorney General John III. Dun
bar that he is a candidate for re-
election. He already has a rival in
the field in Rep. w. w. Zent, Spo-
kane, who is eager to be the Hart
ley candidate. There is also talk
of Rep. Sam Buck, San Juan coun-
ty, coming out for attorney gen.
eral.
Mr.. Dunbar's candidacy is in
stantly regarded as challenge to
Governor Hartley and defiance Of
the threat Of a Hartley ticket
to include candidates for all state
offices. The attorney general
shares with other elective officers
the disapproval of the governor,
but he is the first Of the Olympia
officials to emerge as a candidate
and thereby indicate readiness to
defend his record and fight it out
with Mr.. Hartley at the polls.
Of course his nomination will
be opposed by the governor, be-
cause Mr.. Hartley has repeatedly
his integrity and con-
duct in office. Mr.. Dunbar has
been accused by the governor of
rendering accommodating opin-
ions," trunping up excuses, etc.,
and otherwise obstructing the ex-
ecutive. Under the law, the attor-
ney general is the legal advisor to
the governor, but Mr.. Hartley no
longer depends on Mr.. Dunbar,
preferring to follow the counsel of
his personal attorneys, John Fo-
garty of Everett and E. H. Guie
of Seattle. Consequently, the COM
mon expectation is for a sparkling
clash between Mr.. Hartley and Mr..
Dunbar.
Representative Ed Sims, the a.
lert and active legislative leader,
may take "a hand in presidential pol
itics by becoming state manager
of the pre-convention campaign for
Herbert Hoover. Charles Hebberd,
Spokane furniture merchant, is
now handling the Hoover cam
paign but he is negotiating for
Mr.. Sims to take over the work.
Mr.. Hebberd wants to step a
side because some of the support
ers of Governor Hartley, especial
ly in Spokane, are not friendly to
him and he does not wish to jeop-
ardize Mr.. Hoover's chances to
win Washington's II delegates to
the Kansas City convention. More
over, Mr.. Hebberd is not practi-
cal politician, being somewhat ac-
ademic and theoritical in politics.
and knows that he is not enough
of mixer to organize the differ
ent county conventions.
On the other hand Mr.. Sims has
neither handicap. He is considered
one of the Hartley crowd, which,
of course, would relieve Mr.. Hoover
of the criticism that he is being
sponsored by anti-Hartley lead
ers. Yet, Mr.. Sims is enough OF q
free lance to retain political rela.
tions with republican leaders who
