NICHOLS KNAuB
(Hanford Correspomdent)

(Hanford Correspondent III.
At half past three last Saturday af-
ternoon, at the pleasant home of
Mr.. aud Mrs. w L. Enyeart, old
friends of the brides family, Miss
Marie Nichols, daughter of Robt
Nichols of Hartford and Mr.. Earl
Knuab Of Vernita were united in
marriage, DR.. T. ]. Gray of the
Presbyterian church officiating. Only
few friends besides the immediate
families were present about twenty
two in all.
The ceremony took place beneath
an archway of mountain laurel and
English ivy, the same being used in
other parts Of the house. A very
effective touch Of color was added
by the use of tall pink candles.
The bride entered the room on the
arm of her father to the strains OF
Wagner's wedding march from Lohen-
grin, played by Mrs. ]. F. Conkle.
Following the impressive service by
DR.. Gray, Miss Virginia Enyeart sang
81 Love You Truly" III
The bride wore a gown of pale
green georgette over satin and car
ried a bouquet of Ophelia roses and
the bridesmaid, Miss Margaret Knaub,
sister of the groom, wore gown
of apricot georgette over satin and
carried bouquet of small rose buds.
The groom was attended by his
brother Mr.. Fred Knaub of Vernita.
After the wedding delicious re-
freshments were served by the Misses
Ruth Garst, in yellow, Verna Moulster
in pink and Virginia Enyeart in pow
der blue. The bride cut thecake. which
was made by Mrs. L. L. Moulster
who had charge of the refreshments.
Mr.. and Mrs. Knaub received many
beautiful gifts of silver, linens and
china. Especially Interesting were
some pieces of old linen, silver and
china that have been in the brides
family for many years and only re-
Gently were divided between her and
cousin just married. One piece
carrying a coat of arms. Miss Kath-
crime syfford caught the brides
bouquet.
The happy couple left in their car
for Kennewick where they took the
train for various places on the Sound
to be gone couple of weeks. They
will live in their new home at
Vernita.

ELECTRICAL INVENTION
MAY REvoLunoN|zE WORLD

Something approaching perpetual
motion is contained in a recently
patented invention in England which,
if the claims of the inventor can be
substantiated, even in a small measure,
will revolutionize the electrical indus
try. The following descriptive story
of the invention was published in a
recent issue of the Christian Science
Monitor:
Experts of the General Electric
Metropolitan Vickers and other COM
panies are investigating the merits of
what is claimed to be remarkable
discovery by William Harrison, an in
ventor here, who after II years of
research, is reported to have devised a
machine which magnifies electrical
power. ID.
Thomas Wood, Saint Helens
councillor, vino is the provider of the
financial backing to enable Mr.. Harri-
son to bring his invention to compile
ton declared to a Monitor represen-
tative that: "The machine" which has
been patented but as yet is unnamed
Twill revolutionize all methods of
power production Describing the in
vention which, he said betokens new
era for light and power, Mr.. Wood
said: "The machine through which the
current passes is encased in plain
wooden box, six inches each way. So
long as we can maintain vacuum, we
can magnify the unit of generted cleo
tricity at will. One Of the greatest
troubles has been to get this vacuum
in cylindrical form, SO that it would be
permanent. This has now been accom-
plished. G~
IF we said we had gained perpetual
motion, we should not be believed"
continued Mr.. Wood. "You may call it
perpetual power if you like, and yet
that is perhaps inaccurate as after a
time there would have to be renewals.
You can say, however, that it is 80 per
cent perpetual power. When we made
a thorough test an electric lamp in the
room denoted that we were working
at half an ampere, and when our de-
vice was put into operation, six other
lamps were lighted without the pointer
moving, and others could have been
added. Trans, motors, trains and
ships could be run electrically at low
cost All they require would be to pro-
duce certain amount of power and
the amplifier would do the rest
"The main idea of the. invention is
that while it is giving off power, it is
also restoring energy. 1t will mean

COMMERCIAL FERTILIZER

A number of White Bluffs apple
growers are planning to use CONNER
cial fertilizer in their orchards this
year. One carload, handled through
Fred Rea of Seattle, was shipped in
last week and distributed to growers.
The assembling of the orders for this
car was handled by L. A. Codding.
The fertilizer has been spread in the
orchards and will be disced in little
later when the top of the ground has
dried out a little. Although the APP
plying of commercial fertilizer has
become part of the regular farm
ing operations in the orchards in the
Wenatchee valley, this year will be the
first that it has been used here on a
rather large scale and the experiment
will be watched with interest.

TO PRESS MOVEMENT
TO ORGANIZE GROWERS

While in Yakima last Saturday Ed
mund Anderson attended a meeting Of
the committeeman of the Central
Washington Fruit Growers association
The preliminary work for this organi-
cation, it will be remembered was
started in the early part of 1928, but
before it had been perfected the work
was halted by the spring work in the
orchards.
The announced purpose of the as
scciat;on is to get all the growers, if
possible, into one organization in order
to promote the best interests of the
fruit industry, as whole It is not
the intention to perfect selling or
ganization, Mr.. Anderson says, but
rather service organization, the idea
being that the grower working thru
the already established selling agencies
will be able not only to stabilize the
industry but to bring about a much
better and more satisfactory market
ing system than the present haphaz-
ard one that is SO because of lack
of organization on the part of the
growers.
Many of the committeeman at the
meeting last Saturday, Mr.. Anderson
said, reported remarkable sign-up Of
growers, while in other communi-
ties the results have not been so salts
factory. It was reported that about
60 per cent Of the growers in the
Wenatchee valley have signed up, but
in the Yakima valley the percentage is
smaller. In the latter valley, however,
many of the growers are affiliated with
either the Big Y or the Horticultural
Union and, while the officials and
grower members of those two or
carnations look with favor on the
idea Of a general organization, they did
not want to take any action until the
annual meetings in January.
In order that the work of perfecting
the organization may go forward in
a businesslike manner, Mr.. Steele Of
Yakima has been employed as per-
manent secretary. Mr.. Steele is well
known to number Of growers in
the state, he having contributed a
number Of articles in the past to
Better Fruit, publication devoted to
the interests Of the fruit industry.
While the movement was initiated
in Washington it is planned, if the
promoters are successful in securing
large membership in this state, to
extend the scope Of the organization
to include the growers in the states Of
Idaho and Oregon.
Mr.. Anderson says that it is the
intention to begin an intensive CAM
paign next month to secure members
ana that meetings will be held il all
fruit growing communities for that
purpose.

The fact that the army engineers
office has been instructed to expedite
its pending preliminary study of the

number Of the proposed develope-
nnents were discussed.
In referring to the Priest Rapids
project, originally estimated to cost
$1c0. 100000 the article said:
i "The Prest Rapids permit, issued te

The article concludes with the fol-
lowing paragraph:
"The comprehensive study, to which
the report will be a preliminary, is

NACHES HIGHWAY IS
NEARING COMPLETION

Sufficient funds for the completion
of the Naches Pass Highway from
Yakima to the coast within the next
two years are expected to be included
in the highway budget recommended
tons of state highway engineer Sam
B. Humes for presentation at the
Forthcoming session of the legislature,
according to proponents of the project.
1t is known that the national gov
eminent is planning to spend hundreds
Of thousands of dollars within the
next few years in the Yakima Park
section Of the Rainier National Park
for development purposes if the state
makes early moves toward the COM
pleticn of the Naches Pass highway.
Approximately 100000 has been
spent on this highway by the state
within the last two years and it will
be rascable next year, although it will
not be formally thrown open to the
travelling public until the permanent
surfacing is finished.
The completion of the highway will
give the people of Yakima and east
ern and southwestern Washington not
only short route to the coast, but
one of the most scenic in the state.
In laying it out the engineers had in
mind two great objects, one to over
look nothing from scenic stand
point and second to build it in such
a way that it could be kept open
with snow plows good part of the
winter. 1t skirts Rainier National Park
Offering short trip into the park by
pleasure seeking tourists and is shorter
from Yakima to Seattle by several
miles than by way of Snoqualmie.
The highway crosses the divide Of the
Cascades at a higher point than Snoq-
ualmie Pass but differs from the latter
in that it is built on the sides of the
mountains instead of the ravines SO
that the pillow can dump the snow to
one side.
Asahel Curtis of Seattle, one of the
best authorities in the northwest on
matters concerning Rainier National
Park says that it is his belief that
at least one hundred and fifty thous-
and tourists may be expected to pass
over this highway during the first
season following its completion and
the finishing of the proposed Yakima
Park development work.
With the recent Improvement of the
tOthello road on the east side of the
Columbia and the continued improve
ment of the White Bluffs-Ya kima
road, it is expected that many of
the tourists to use the Naches Pass
highway from Yakima to the coast
will pass through this valley.
