ule c. There may be some modifica-
tons and additions as the campaign
aorogresses, it was intimated.
William Horsley of the lizard
company, who is managing the ad-
vertising campaign, reviewed the sit
uation at the meeting. The newspaper
advertising was released in some of
the auction markets last week and
will be released in various other cities
as soon as conditions warrant. In
some instances, local supplies of early
spp,es must be largely out of the way
to warrant the release.
Two things were considered in the
selection of the cities, the unloading
Of apples in those markets and the
res,r,nse that the jobbing trade has
given to the idea of advertising. Ger
tain cities were not considered be-
cause the trade there was found to
be lukewarm on the proposition and
because conditions in other respects
were unfavorable. The first stages
Of the campaign were to be concen-
trated on the sale Of Jonathans tc
be followed by the other varieties az
they come on the market.

AUTO ACcIDENT1NJuRIEs
FATAL 10 MRS. kOPPEN

Mrs. F. &C. Koppen of Wahluke
died at Ephrata Tuesday evening and
Mr.. Koppen Is there under the care
Of physician, suffering from in
j,ries received in an auto accident
that occurred that evening on the
Central Washington Highway about
half way between Vantage and
Quincy.
Mr. and Mrs. Koppen were on
their way TO Ephrata when they met
another car driven by John Under
wood, sheepman, of Yakima, in a
head-on collision. Because Of the con-
dition Of the survivors, details of the
accident are meager.
AS nearly as can be determined,
it occurred about 7 o'clock in the
evening. The highway at that point
is wide and is oiled and there, are
no sharp curves and it is hard to
understand how such an accident
could happen unless possibly dust
from the fields was blowing across
the road in such way as to confuse
the drivers of the two cars.
Mr.. and Mrs. Koppen were taken
by passing motorists to Ephrata,
where they were given medical aid.
Mrs. Koppen was suffering from a
fractured skull and although both
arms and both legs were broken, her
neck dislocated, and she was
otherwise badly crushed, she re-
mained conscious until about
an hour before her death at
eleven O'Clock. She realized that her
end had come and gave detailed in
structions as to the disposition of her
worldly affairs and funeral arrange
ments.
The funeral is being held this, Fri
day afternoon at the Koppen home.
Rev. L. G. Krug conducting the servi-
ces. AT her request Mrs. Koppen
will be laid to rest beside her mother
in the Wahluke cemetery.
Mr.. Koppen was badly bruised and
cut and suffered factured jaw and
possibly internal injuries and skull
fracture, altho reports this morning
from Ephrata were that while still in
serious condition he had shown re-
marka ble improvement and will re-
cover 1t no complications develop.
Mr.. Underwood, who is well known
in White Bluffs, was taken to the
hospital in Ellensburg, with Fred
Parker, who was in the car with him,
for treatment. Neither were serious
ly injured, Mr.. Parker being able
to leave the hospital the following
morning and Mr.. Underwood will
leave Saturday, the hospital author
tiles told the Spokesman this morn
ing.
Both cars are total wrecks, damag-
ed beyond sall possibility of being
repaired.

ALL IMPROVED LAND IN
COUNTY BEING CLASSIFIED

! II. S. Hughes of Hover and Oscar
Sheen of Prosser, arrived in the vail
ey this week and expect to spend the
next two months here classifying the
land here for taxation purposes. They
are working Under the direction ol
Harry Forsyth, county treasurer. They
have been on the job, for some time
and have completed all of the work
except that connected with the land
in this valley.
Only the land that is being irrigat-
ed or that is subject to and can be
irrigated is being classified. The land
is divided into four groups, No. 1
being the best and No. the poor
est, and the taxable valuation of each
tract or parcel is being determined
accordingly.
Heretofore all of the irrigible land,
whether or not it was being farmed,
has been assessed on the same basis,
which has resulted in inequality in the
payment of taxes and has been the
cause of the forfeiture to the county
Of some of the poorer land for non
payment of taxes.
1t is believed that d real classifi-
cation will adjust inequalities and
will result in fewer forfeitures
to the county Of the poorer
land because Of reduction of the
taxes assessed against it. Every time
a piece of land is forfeited to the
county it is automatically taken off
the tax rolls, thereby shifting the tax
burden to the land that is paying.
Mr.. Hughes is the republican can
didate for county commissioner from
the Kennewick district

.RF D SERVICE PRAYED FOR
BY UP-RIVER FOLKS

Official notice has been received by
the White Bluffs postmaster from the
Post Office Department at Washing
ton, that the Cold Creek postoffice
will be discontinued on October Is.
and advising that all mail directed to
Cold Creek would be sent to White
Bluffs after that date.
Mrs. Clara Brown, who has been
postmaster at Cold Creek for the past
year or two, resigned a:out two
months ago and there were no other
applicants for the position.
No provision has so far been made
for getting mail to the patrons of the
discontinued office other than at
White Bluffs but the Cold Creek res
idents are hopeful that they will be
served through proposed extension
of the rural route at White Bluffs. A
petition praying for this extension
has been circulated and quite gener-
ally signed at Cold Creek. It is also
proposed that this extension also in
clude the residents at Vernita and Al
lard.
When the petition has been COM
pleted it will be forwarded to the
Department at Washington, who will
refer it back to an Inspector for in
vestigation. In his recommendation,
the Inspector will be influenced to
great extent by the service and cost
to the department through the pro-
posed rural route extension as COM
pared to the present service and cost.
A proposed route over which the car
rier would travel is necessary part
of the petition but it is not binding
on the Inspector, who has the author
ity to make any changes in it that he
sees fit.
If the up-river residents are success
full in getting favorable action from
the Department on their petition, they
will be assured Of daily except Sun
day service and in nearly every case
their rural mail boxes will be located
nearer their homes than their present
postoffices.
Any business that can be transacted
at postoffic can be transacted with
a rural carrier. This includes money
order registered and lnsus-u mail,
srecial delivery and air mail, and all
classes of parcel most.
