r. E. TAYLOR ELECTED
NERD ASSOCIATION SEC'Y

The annual meeting of the Benton
County Herd Improvement Associ-
alton was held at the County Agents
Office, Thursday afternoon OF last
week.
The meeting was called to order by
c. G. Campbell, vice president. Alter
the reading of the minutes, apd dis
cussion of some of the problems it
was moved by c. F. Fletcher of Rich
land and seconded by F. E. Taylor
of White Bluffs, that the association
proceed with the election of officers.
The following were nominated to the
board of directors: Frank Taylor,
White Bluffs; Frank Keene, Kenne-
wick; c. F. Fletcher, Richltnd; R.
w. Mounts, Prosser; Walter Chapel,
White Bluffs; and C. G. Campbell,
Kennewick. Upon balloting, the fol-
lowing members were elected to the

c. F. Fletcher, r. w. Mounts and
c. G. Campbell
The board met Immediately after
the association meeting and organ
lied. The following officers were
electea: e. 6. Campbell, President.
F. E. Taylor, Secretary Treasurer, and
Frank Keene, Vice President.
Several matters came up for dis
cussion during the session, one being
the signing up of members in the
association for another year. All pres
ent at the annual meeting were In
favor and signified their intention Of
continuing with the testing program
another year feeling that they were
getting much with their testing pro-
gram. It was felt that there should
be and undoubtedly were other MEM
bers in each community who could
be signed up in the association
through solicitation of farmers and the
County Agent. Farmers in the various
communities are to attempt to line up
other farmers for testing program.
Z The finances of the association be-
came little mixed up during the past
year due to the resignation of the
sec-treas, but the association will have
slight balance and should be able
to start the new year II. good shape.
1t was suggested by several members
present that aspayment be made by
check if at all possible in the future,
especially since the new sec.-treas, will
be at White Bluffs this year, at some
distance from the County Agents
office which will make it little more
difficult to keep things straight. The
stenographer at the County Agents
office will take charge of the records
as far as the keeping of the accounts
tor each member is concerned. Checks
however will be signed by the secre-
tary-treasurer.

THE CID STORY

The farmers side of the old con-
troversy between them and the hun
tiers, revived each year during the
hunting season, is ably presented in
the following editorial published in
recent issue of The Dalles, Oregon,
daily:
"Whenever the hunting season
opens the season also opens for con-
troversy between the hunters in town
and the farmers. The argument as to
rights is an old one and one that
will never be settled.
"The farmer has an excellent rea-
son for posting his land and keeping
hunters on the other side OF the
fence. No owner of valuable livestock
likes to see the stock come home full
of bird shot, and occasionally even
have COW or calf killed. And the to-
tai disregard of many hunters for
property rights, the indifference. with
which they tramp down crops and
leave gates open, is enough to make
any land owner take definite and
justified stand.
"Yet many farmers allow hunting
on their places. But more and more
of them are displaying mo Tres
pass" signs
"Joe Bonn, secretary Of The Dalles
Rod and Gun Club, gathered some
interesting information this week. He
paid visit to number of ranches
in the Three, Five and Eight Mile
sections, and questioned the owners
as to their feeling towards the sports
men. Their answers in almost every
case were identical-that they did
not care in the least for the birds,
and that responsible people who
called at the house and asked per-
mission to hunt were allowed to do
So But cases cited of abuse of this
privilege, of wanton destruction OF
/ property and criminal carelessness
| in the use of guns would convince
anyone that they would be more
than justified in closing their places
completely. and keeping them
closed"

LESS SPEED. SAFER HIGHWAYS

The State Highway Patrol exists
as an aid to safety of travel upon
the highways. As medium for ac-
comprising this end, traffic laws have
been enacted defining the reasonable
limits of safety. However, the true
measure OF safety is determined by
local conditions rather than by gener-
al provisions of law. What may be
safe driving of a motor vehicle over
given stretch of highway today,
may be extremely dangerous tomor-
row.
Nobody can deny that what is safe
travel in summer months when high
ways are dry. the skies bright, and
visibility good, is unsafe travel in
w,nter-time when pavements are slip
perry, roadbeds soft and vision of the
motorist is obscured by rain, fog
and other inclemencies of weather.
In short, if reasonable safety is to
be maintained on our highways, traf-
tic must be slowed down to meet
winter conditions. To this end, orders
have gone out to all state patrolmen
to begin, from this date, more
rigid enforcement of all traffic laws.
especially the 40-nnile speed limit law.
In this effort, we earnestly solicit
the cooperation and support OF the
newspapers, of chambers of COM
merce,. of other civic bodies and Of
the citizens generally, and trust a
general slowing down of traffic will
be accomplished by a stricter obser-
vance OF law, rather than by increased
arrests and court actions, which is
the only alternative if we do not have
cooperation Of the travelling public.
