STRAWBERRY BLANKETS

A blanket" for the strawberry bed
should be provided to protect the
plants from the severe drying winds
of winter and from injury due to the
"heaving" action of the soil moisture.
Some sort of mulch covering is
advisable, especially in the northern
part of the Middle West, or in re-
'gions where alternate freezing and
thawing occurs in early winter and
in the spring. Some muck, clay, and
sandy loam soils from which the wa
ter does not drain readily, are espe-
c;ally notorious as "heavers" when
they freeze and thaw, and the plants
may be thrown entirely out OF the
ground or their roots broken so they
will dry out and die. Among the ma
terials used for mulching are stable
said, that the grapes were the finest
manure, straw, pine needles, wild hay,
and crops grown for the purpose.
Stravo is perhaps more commonly
Used than any other material. 1t
should of course be free from grain
and weed seeds. In general the time
to mulch is as soon as the ground is
frozen hard enough to bear working
over or when the plants have ceased
active growth. The mulch should be
scattered over the beds so that some
will fall on the plants, but more of it
between the rows. In the spring the
plants will grow up through the
straw, and the berries will thus be
kept clean.

MISS EDNA JOHNSON MARRIEs

Mrs. ]. A. johnson, received letter
Monday from her daughter, Edna,
telling of the lstter's marriage in Sc
attic last week to Wesley H. Jones
of Everett. Edna has been in Seattle
for the past year taking nursing
course in the Seattle General Hospi-
tai and Mr.. Jones, who is an analyst,
has been studying in the same hospi-
tai, and had just taken his final ex-
aminations. Mr.. Jones is nephew
of Senator Wesley L. Jones. It was
double wedding. Edna's pal, Miss
Eva Hoover, also nurse in the same
hospital, being bride at the same
ceremony.
& All four Of the young people left
Ihmediatefy IN car for a honey
moon trip through California and as
far as Phoenix, Arizona, where an
other of Mr.. Jones' nncles is mayor.
They intended to stop in Los Ange-
les to look into an offer Mr.. Jones
had had from one Of the hospitals
there.
Mrs. Jones said they expected to
be in White Bluffs for the holidays.
Mrs. Jones was one Of the 1927
graduates of the White Bluffs high
school and was one Of the star bas-
ket bali players on the high school
team. She has many friends here
who wish her all happiness in her
married life.

BUY FINE HERD SIRE

N. F. Lutz and Arne Hanson of
Hanford ordered the latter part of
the week, 31l months old purebred
Guernsey bull calf from the Chicona
herd of A. L. Gile of Chinook. This
herd is one of the largest Guernsey
herds in the Northwest, and has some
Of the best breeding in the North
west. In buying an individual from
this herd these men feel that they
should be able to increase the pro-
duction of their young stuff which
they are developing at this time.
The young bull purchased is sired
by Beechwood Zero King, a young
bull of good promises in which Mr..
Gile purchased half interest about
l8 months ago, paying $500. He is
from Dione of Chicona, who is very
heavy milking COW, but has not yet
been tested. Dione of Chicona is sired
by Langwater Traveller, who has %
A. r. daughters, Daisy of Chicona
two years ago, being the worlds
champion in her class. This makes
this young bull an excellent breeding
animal and both Mr.. Hanson and Mr..
Lutz are well pleased with their pur-
chase.

LIKES IT HERE

B c. o. Bradshaw, who had been
spending few days here with his
father, G. w. Bradshaw, left We'd
nesday for a business conference in
Spokane. Later he expects to go
to Montana for few days hunting
with friend. who has an estate there
that includes a duck reserve. Mr..
Bradshaw has an appointment to
meet with members of the Interstate
Commerce commission in Butte on
November 10 regarding an order that
the commission is expected to make
requiring the placing on all railroad
cars of new patented coupling. Mr..
Bradshaw is vice-president Of the
concern that manufactures this ap-
pliance. Although he is in much
more prosperous condition that he
was with the Milwaukee here, he
still has warm spot in his heart
for this valley and hopes some day
when the water and other internal
questions have been settled. to own
nice home here to which he can
come occasionally for recreation and
rest when the pace in the metropolis
gets too strenuous.

he HAD HIS NERVE

After he had closed the hotel meat
msrket about l 80 last Sunday after
noon, j. H. Cole went into the lobby
of the hotel and did not go back into
the market until about three o'clock
When he did he found half hog
weighing about $50 pounds, which he
said he had left in the ice box, on,
in the hall leading to the ice making
room. It is Mr.. Coles belief that
some one had come through one Of
the back doors and attempted to car
ry, It away but had become fright
ened, possibly by hearing footsteps,
and dropped it where it was found.
Dad says he found the hook on which
the hog was hanging in the ice box,
out in the alley, dropped there, he
think, by the person attempting to
steal the meat, who, in his anxiety
to get away, did not realize he was
still carrying the hook until he had
reached that point, when he, Of course,
drcpped it.

ALMOST A BLAZE

The cry of "Fire" Saturday FORE
noon caused ripple of excitement
Smoke was seen emerging from I
small ventilation opening in the lit
tie building back of the Fred M.
We'll office, used by Mrs. Remlinger
for her stenographic work. A crowd
of fire fighters. was quickly recruited
from the street and the fire that was
burning between the ceiling and the
roof was as quickly put out with
only minor damage to the building,
fire extinguishcrs and a line of irri-
cation hose attached to tap, being
used to put out the blaze.
Very nearly the same experience
was repeated at the Becht cottage in
the south part of town, Wednesday
evening, only prompt action and as
sistance on the. part of neighbors
averting what might have proved a
serious fire.

MOVE TO WHITE BLUFFS

H. S. Hughes of Hover and Oscar
Sheen Of Prosser who are in the val
ley classifying the land for taxation
purposes, moved their headquarters
this week from Hanford to White
Bluffs. They began their work in the
lower part of the valley and have
been working out of Hanford. They
will be located at White Bluffs until
they have completed the job, which
Mr.. Hughes estimates will require at
least month more. They want to
finish the work before the colder
weather interferes with them and will
not take time out to go home to
vote next Tuesday, Mr.. Hughes, who
is the republican candidate for coiln-
ty commissioner from the Kennewick
district, having cast an absentee vo-
ter's ballot here this week.

HISTORICAL PAPER
FOUND IN MOVING

In the moving of the Spokesman
to its new location many little for
aotten articles were uncovered and
brought to light Probably the most
interesting of these was copy of the
first paper printed on the Washing
ton hand press which is part OF
the Spokesman equipment.
On the top of this press there is a
small cast iron box with brass COW
er that houses the mechanism for
cc:isrolling the tension on the press.
The tension is controlled from the
side. and there is no occasion for re-
moving the cover unless something
goes wong, and it has probably been
good many years since the top
was opened. In the moving it was
deemed advisable to loosen it in
order to determine the condition Of
the tension screw and in one o$ t{ie
small compartments IN the box was
found tightly folded newspaper. |,
was wrapped in another piece Of pa
per on which was the notation, "This
is the first issue Of the Republican, .
written with an indelibe pencil.
When ilnfolded, the paper proved
to be copy of the Pomeroy Republi-
can. It was dated March 1882, max
ing it 46 years old. The editor was
E. T. Wilson and the subscripfion
price was $3.50 year. Arthur was
President of the United States at the
time and Washington was still a
territory, William S. Newell being
Territorial Governor. Nearly the
whole issue of the paper was filled
with short digests of the different
business institutions in Pomeroy at
the time and being the first issue,
was more personal than general in its
news stories. One interesting touch
was the expression of the hope ti1at
Pomeroy would soon have rail
road. In its cir tight compartment
the paper was in almost perfect state
of preservation.

POST ROAD SIGNS ON
NORTH SOUTH HIGHWAY

Heity Allard of the Allard Service
Stat on, and Henry Glanzman, Wah-
luke ferryman, drove to Wenatchee
Thursday to post some new road signs
and to put up some of the old ones
that have been knocked down. Tour
lists passing through White Bluffs
the first of the week said that the big
sign at Vantage was apparently down
as they did net see it and that much
travel from the upper country to Port
land could be directed through here
if the road was properly posted, par
ticularly at Vantage. The route
through Vantage, Wahluke, White
Bluffs and Kennewick to connection
with the Columbia River Highway at
Umatilla is about so miles shorter
than any other route from Wenatchee
to Portland.
Mr.. Allard is planning to have some
signs of his own made, advertising
his service station, to be posted later
on the road leading in ard out of White
Bluffs.
