RosEBUsH 100 YEARS OLD

Mrs. c. D. Loveland handed in to
the Spokesman this week the following
press dispatch from Springfield, South
Carolina, appearing in the christian
Science Monitor recently:
This town has rosebush that has
bloomed SO years without cessation,
and is apparently still as hardy and
vigorous as when it was set out in
1887 by a young bride, Mrs. Rufus
Salley9
In 1885 the Salleys moved to plan
tation nearer Springfield and carried
the rosebush with them, where it was
replanted and continued to give of its
scarlet beauty.
In 1900, when Uriah P. Salley, a
son bought a plantation in close prox-
unity to Springfield, the rosebush was
again transplanted to this estate, where
it continued to bloom for % years.
Then Mr.. Salley moved to town and
transferred the bush again. Since that
time it has continued to bloom regu-
larly each year.

ANOTHER airplane flying through be-
came lost and had to land to learn
its whereabouts, one day last week
Mr.. Larson Of the Northwestern Air
Service was flying from Spokane to
Portland and spying the local aviator's
field decided to- come down. He said
he didn't think much of the sage
brush but decided to try it and in
landing, soon had crowd attracted.
OF course our local aviator, Joe Grell
and his mother, were about the first
there. The pilot, after stretching a
bit and getting his bearings, proceeded
on his way.
Joe says that Ray Norby of St.
Paul who was lost and landed at
White Bluffs week ago, has been
heard from and that he went to
Yakima and from there flew safely to
Victoria, B. c.
Mr.. and Mrs. Ralph Humphrey and
small son have moved from Yakima
and are living in the house belonging
to- Mrs. Brooks and formerly owned
by her father, the late T. M. Snyder.
Saturday afternoon they motored to
Yakima to visit relatives. On their
return Sunday evening, when they
were about twelve miles out of White
Bluffs, a bearing came off the wheel
of their car. The wheel rolled into the
brush and the car was forced into the
ditch. Luckily, no one was hurt and
they were picked up and brought into
town while wrecker went out to
get the car.

WOULD TIE.Up GAS FIELB
CONTINUED from page y

1t would be rather difficult to define
fair price in franchise entered into
now as the product is quite new and
developments Of production can reason
ably be expected that will materially
reduce costs.
But the greatest danger lies in re-
tarding development of our own gas
fields.
In many parts of Western WASH
ington, we are on the threshold OF
natural gas production. In Eastern
Washington natural gas is an accom-
plished fact, now being piped to four
towns Of the Yakima Valley with
immediate prospect Of reaching sew
erai more.
| The interests seeking the franchise
n Washington want % dominate the
gas business just as they have control
led the oil business. Once they get
control Of all the mains thru which
gas must be conducted, they will hold
back development Of gas fields just
az by every means at their command
they have held back development OF
oil.
The communities will be the ultimate
loser by paying high rates for gas.
| With the opening up of local gas
field, rates would be Apr Ultimately
one-half to one-third of what manu-
featured rates are, and remember this
in addition: natural gas has twice the
value in heat units that manufactured
gas has Manufactured gas, 100000
British thermal units; natural gas,
100 British thermal units.)
There is some talk of piping gas
from Kettleman Hills, California, to
this area. The same company seeking
the local franchise is the one that is
connected up with this project. The
significance of this is that some means
of capitalizing on what is now waste
product down there must be found;
and local communities are to be the
goat. A pipe line such as projected
for this distance would cost around
SIS, 100000. Somebody would have to
pay for it, and it doesn't take very
heavy thinking to guess who that
somebody will be.
The best thing for any community
to do now is to urge development OF
local areas with an ultimate develop
ment of cheap gas, and then give fran.
chises in an open field and with open
eyes. In the meantime take advantage
Of the liquid gas as best they can
without tying themelves up and with
out tying up local development.
