District Agrees
On Payment
Of Bonds
Spread of Payments
Over 80 Years, Re-
duction of Principle
and Interest Provided

After considering data from the
community chest programs of 9TH
er cities, the committee in charge
of the prospective drive here have
come to the conclusion that Kenne-
wick's quota of $1,000 is lower per
capita that that of most other
cities. They anticipate little diff
Guilty in filling the quota.
At the meeting last Friday
night, it was decided that 35 solic-
itors would be needed to cover the
territory. A list of these will be
published before the beginning of
the drive, which will be in the ear
ly part of April. A large map of
the city is being drawn, on which
the districts will be indicated.
Campaign headquarters will be
established at Gascoigne and Fyfe's
and while the drive is on bulle-
tin board will show during the day
what progress is being made in
each district. 1t is expected that
rivalry will develop between dis
tricts as to which can fill its al
lotted quota first.
The committee will meet again
this Friday night.

Each Quota Expected;
Per Capita Rate Low -

T An agreement was reached Fri
day by representatives of the bond
holders and Columbia Irrigation
district which will relieve the dis
trict in its payment on the bonds.
The general lien was replaced by
a fixed amount for each tract of
irrigated land.
Payments were spread over 80
years on an amortization basis
that will allow for substantial
reduction of principle and inter-
est. An acceptable feature of this
agreement, according to M. M.
Moulton, is the fact that the pay
ments on principle and interest,
even at the peak which will be
reached in nine years, will not ex-
coed the interest payments in force
before the agreement.
This new payment plan is the
result of a long negotiation be-
tween the Columbia district and
the bondholders to unite on a
schedule which would lift from the
landowners a repayment schedule
that was felt to be too heavy a
burden on the land.

Pretty Smart At Guessi1l'?
Here's Golden Opportunity

How is your estimator working
these days? Here is a chance to
put it to work for a substantial
prize. Grease it up and let's see
what you can do.
Take your pencil and figure out
how many people live in Benton
county, how many within the cor
porate limits of Kennewick, Pros
ser and Richland. Put your ans
wers down on the blank clipped
from this paper, and mail it or
bring it to the Courier-Reporter
office. The basis of the contest will
be the official government census,
which will be published about May
1. ..s... .-..-s ~.
Prizes, which will be announced
later, will include a grand prize to
be awarded to the person coming
the closest to the correct answer
for all questions, a prize to the
one estimating most nearly the
number of people within the cor
porate limits of Benton county, and
likewise Kennewick, Prosser and

practice game with Pasco is set
for Sunday, March 80, at Pasco.
Plans include new uniforms to
be donated by business firms, each

firm donating it.
Looking over the list of Kenne-
wick players who expect to turn
out, sport followers can look for
ward to a strong team. And any
turning out will have a chance to
make the team if he shows ability.
The following men have announced
their intention of turning out for
the workout Sunday: Frank and

Invitations are being sent out
this week to friends and former
members of the Kennewick Meth
odist church asking them to at
tend the banquet and bond burn
ing Friday, March %. This will be
the formal celebration of the WHIP
ing out of the building debt of the
church. Bishop Titus Lowe of Port
land will be the speaker of the eve
ming, and music will be furnished
by the Sunday school orchestra.
Reservations for the banquet,
which will be so cents a plate,
should he made now SO that the
ladies Of the church will know how
many to provide for. All the cit
liens of Kennewick will be well
coined to both banquet and eve
ming program.
On Friday, March 81, E. Ray
mond Atterbury of Seattle and
Roy L. Burt of Chicago will be in
charge of meetings in the church.
At 4:30, Atterbury will talk to the
young people while Burt meets
with the pastors and leaders. At
7:30, Burt will speak before a joint
meeting. These special gatherings
are part of a series being carried

Your figures will be considered
only when turned in on the blanks
furnished in each copy of the Cour-
ier-Reporter. The contest will con-
tinue during April, and each per-
son may have as many gueses as
he wants.
Census enumerators will begin
their questioning April 2 and ex-
pect to have the work completed
by the n1idle of the month. They
will take no part in the contest,

Baseball, the great American
sport, will have its place on the
calendar of Kennewick's spring
activities. Fans can make up their
minds right now to attend a series
of fast games as soon as the lea

is to select its own manager, and
an attempt will be made to see
that the teams are fairly evenly
matched to insure real COMPETE
ton for the fans.
The Kennewick team will hold
its first practice Sunday afternoon
at 2 o'clock on the high school
grounds, although it is planned to
have a new diamond at the Fair

Sketches For
New School
Unit Shown
Plans for Proposed
Gymnasium Exhibited
To Kiwanians; Would
Seat 1000

Suggestions for a new gymnas-
ium building and public assembly
room have so far materialized that
sketches have been made of the adj
dition to the school grounds. Sup
erintendent Warren C. Hodge spoke
to the Kiwanis club last week about
the difficulties encountered in the
way of housing the gymnasium
activities and the need for more
class rooms in the high school
building.
The sketch showed building of
sufficient size to cover two or three
basketball floors, locker rooms and
bleachers. 1t contained space for q
standard sized stage and provid-
ed seating capacity upon the gym
floor to accommodate 1900 people.
1t would be built on the proper
ty now owned by the district and
would be situated just southwest
of the present high school build
ings, opening west upon the pro-
posed athletic field. 1t would be
one unit of a definite campus plan
which will provide for additional
buildings should the time ever
come when still more expansion
might be necessary.
It is Mr.. Hodges idea to have
the architecture conform to the
general plan used in the construc-
ton of the present high school
building. A central heating plant
would be used to heat both the
present buildings and the new

Government Weather
Man Explains When
And How Temperature
Drop Kills Early Fruit

Albert w. Cook, the government
frost prognosticator, has prepared
,be following information on tenn
narature damage to fruits for the
Guidance of Kennewick orchardists
during this critical season in fruit
growing. =
The warm days of the past week
followed by cold and frosty nights
warn us that spring with its at
tendant frosts is at hand and there
is necessity for protecting the
forthcoming blossoms. r.
The next so days constitute the
most critical period and a con-
slant vigil must be kept by all
who intend to protect their crop.
Heaters should be in the orchards
and filled, ready for use. Oil, coal.
briquets, or wood in sufficient
quantities to last at least three
nights should be on hand.
There are so many factors which
determine whether a given tenn
perature will damage the fruits,
buds or blossoms, that the matter
is one of considerable complexity.
The length of time the low tenn
perature persists, the amount OF
moisture in the air, the stage of
advancement of the fruit, the vigor
and condition of the tree, and the
weather Immediately preceding the
frost all have much influence on
the amount of damage that will be.
done.
The opinion has been generally
held that slow thawing of frozen
blossoms or buds would mitigate
the damage, but later information
seems to cast some doubt upon this
theory. Authorities differ as to
what causes the damage when the
blossoms or buds freeze. However,
experience seems to indicate that
the length of the time the temper
allure prevailed at the low point
is more important than gradual de-
rosting in determining the ulti-
mate damage.
A frost which follows period
of weather favorable for the rapid
growth will cause more damage
than the same temperature coming
after weather favorable for slow
growth. The weather bureau has
been gathering data on damaging
temperatures for number of
years by studying damage in the
field under natural conditions
from frosts of known severity. In
the tables that follow, data is Civ

have caused damage to various de-
ciduous fruits in the various
