Industry in Washington will new
er he handicapped for lack of
abundant power. Its potential wa
ter power resources are greater
than those of any other state, 10
percent of the nations water pow
er being within its borders and to-
falling the impressive figure of H.
225,OOO HIP.
These hyfiro-power sites are not
confined to one section Of the
state, but are distributed along
the Columbia river and through
the Cascade and Olympic noun
tains and are, therefore, within
easy transmission distance of the
centers of population. Hence, hy-
dro power can be economically de-
veloped to meet the requirements
of industry in all parts of the state.

Getting away to good start,
Kennewick packing houses began

Lei. shipments are strong. Early

Saturday, and both the Big Y and
Three Rivers are shipping Tartar
ians. Washburn-G Gleason will COM
mence shipping cherries next
week. The Pacific Fruit and Pro-
duce company got out 100 crates
before Tuesday.
Following the spring-long vigil
against frost, and the scare over
winter injury, Kennewick has a
curious eye on the cherry crop. In
dications to date, however, show
that a good crop is maturing. DAM
age done by winter low temporal
lures was in patches only, and
where the trees were unhurt, they
are heavily loaded. There was no
frost damage.
The Three Rivers shipped their
10th and last car of strawberries
Tuesday. The approximate aver
age price for the 10 cars was 1925
per crate. The contract for aspar-
agus to the Sunnyside cannery has
been completed, and the associa-
tion is now sending grass to Van
couver, B. c. cannery at 6 IL cents

10 Apple Coop.
Say Apple Men
10 Farm Board
,r,off;cial Contact Committee
Recommends That no Mar
keting Medium Be Set up;
Sentiment Against it

That the federal farm board re-
fra;n from organizing a national
.nple medium was the recommend
alton made to the board by the UNI
official apple contact COMMITTEES
..h;cb met with the board in Wash
;ngton. D. c., May IA and Is. J. W.
Hebert, general manager OF the
YAKIMA Fruit Growers associa-
t;on and vice chairman of the COM
mittee. who has just returned to
Yakima from the East, tells the
story of the conference:
A survey by the federal board
of conditions in apple producing
districts to make sure of the sit
nation as regards cooperatives and
the feeling of the growers toward
forming new collective marketing
units was urged, with the sugges-,
ton that the findings be made the
basis for any organizing activity.
1.-THE committee was unanimous
in making this suggestion" Hebert
said. aSince 85 percent of the ap-
pie tonnage is handled by distrib-
uting agencies other than cooper
atives, the committee regarded
the setting up of a national mar
keting agency as Impractical and
limited its recommendations to a
few things that might be done to
improve conditions.
Commenting upon the recon-
mendation that cooperatives be
formed locally only where the SEN
timent is favorable, Hebert said
that even in the Pacific northwest,
which is the best organized region
Of the United States, there is no
Adefinite sentiment for a regional
sales agency. However, the COM
mittee declared themselves in fav-
or of having the federal board
lend aid to districts partly organic
ed comparatively.

I'm Arrest

Assaulted and left bound hand
and foot in an abandoned shack Is
miles off the highway near Con-
nell was the narrowing experience
last Saturday night of John Beals,
son of the local blacksmith.
Young Beals was on his way to
boys camp, with his pack upon
his back when he was picked up
by stranger, who forced him to
go to the deserted shack fifteen
miles from Mesa. Here he was rob-
bed and attacked, bound hand and
foot with his own shoe strings and
left for the night.
During the night he managed to
free his hands and got loose and
started for town. He arrived in
Mesa in the early morning, accord
ing to his tale, and notified the po-
lice at Pasco, giving a good des-
cription of the man and the car he
drove. The culprit was promptly
arrested.
The man had been around Pasco
for the past two or three years
and had been in the hands of the
police previously for liquor viola
tons. In his room was found the
boys pack sack and several other
articles which had been stolen from
Pasco residents. The man had al
so made an attempted assault upon
Pasco woman Saturday and her
husband had driven the intruder
away with a shot gun.
