SEEK TO HAVE
CANNERY OPEN
IN GRASS TIME
Committee Working to Secure
First Unit of Factory 10
Handle Early Crops of this
District "a

It's quite within the bounds Of
possibilities that this district will
have a cannery before the next
crop season arrives.
The cannery idea has been one
of the major problems facing this
community for years and more or
less desultory work has been done
by the Chamber of Commerce in
years past, in effort to secure an
establishment in this locality. For
one reason or another the plans
have fallen thru until lately. With
the desperate need for some meth
cd of caring for our early crops
looming higher and larger each
year, the chamber has again got
ten at the Job. -
Negotiations have been under
way with the management Of the
Sunnyside cannery since the de-
struction this spring Of the plant
to rebuild here. Apparently this
project has fallen through and
there is no longer a chance for
their removal here, although the
management has had this location
under serious consideration.
Following the conclusions Of this
plan a special committee has had
the matter under consideration.
The compiling of data has been
going on and as q part Of this
work. George ID. Peters, secretarv
OF the Chamber, interviewed the
management Of the cannerv now
being started at Walla Walla' Much
encouragement was received frinn
this source and IL is though that
no particular difficulty will be
found IN securing plant for Ken
newick.
The suggestion was made that
the first unit of such an establish
inent be installed in such manner
as to permit enlargement should
the affair prove profitable.
The principal difficulty. under
present conditions at least. is in
disposing of the finished product.
Wholesalers are buying such
stocks in limited quantities, com
polling the canneries to carry the
bulk Of the stocks. Retailers are
following the same plan and the
movements are consequently on q
much smaller scale.
The only possible solution Of this
problem is to have the cannery so
financed that It will be possible "a
hold the packout for at least q
year. It is hoped by the commit
tee that this arrangement can be
worked out by the sale of stock IN
the organization, growers who
take subscriptions agreeing to paw
for their stock in raw material
or a portion of it, at least to ap-
ply on the purchase.
In the discussion of the commit
tee of the possibilities, it was est
mated that ten thousand tons Of
grass alone would possibly be
available this coming year. While
impossible to handle this tonnage
the first year, it indicates the pos
sibilities Of the venture in this
one line.
Kennewick's reputation for high
quality of its grass is no better
than that Of its tomatoes. Here
is another possibility for cannery
work which promises profitable
operation.
Mr.. Peters is following up his
Investigations and further work
along this line will be continued,
with hopes Of getting the plant in
operation by grass harvest time
next spring.

WATER COMES
ON SIXTH DAY
AFTER BREAK
Wood Stave Flume Above
Town Replaced Following
Break of Last Week; Much
Crop Loss

On the sixth day following the
breaking of the Badger Canyon
flume west Of town, water was
turned into the main canal of the
Columbia Irrigation system. About
a hundred and fifty feet of the
flume was replaced. The actual
work of replacing the slaves re-
quired about "a hours. The cost
of making the repairs has been un-
officially estimated at about
$4,000.
Published in another part of
this issue is a statement as to the
probable cause of the break, is
sued by w. C. Muldrow, former
manager of the canal.
C. j. Bartholet, state supervisor
OF hydraulics, was in Kennewick
yesterday, with special engineer
employed by the department. To-
gether they went over the main
canal above town inspecting the
project. No report has yet been
made on the situation.
More or less adverse comment
has been heard over the apparent
delay in having the repair work
under way. The break came in a
most inopportune time for many
of the ranchers and the crop loss
is larger than was anticipated.
The reconstruction work was un-
der the direction of A. v. Mercy
nolds and the stave work was done
by Lou Keene and Clarence Sond-
erman, both of whom had had pre-
vious experience. on the recon-
struction work on the Highlands
pipeline.

HUBBARD LECTURES
(Continued from Page Opel


 The discovery of chlorine, prom inc sulpher dioxide almost in conjunction, confirms a geological theory that ore deposits are creat- ed thru the agencies of super-heat- ed vapors and gases, smelted in natures laboratories and reaSSem- bled in the form of metals for mans use. Records of Vulcan at his forge, tearing down, disintegrating and resembling titanic elements of metal and stone, seething, flowing, cooling and laying them out to challenge the alchemist's genius and fan his curiosity to fever heat, are preserved for future genera tionS to marvel at while adding to their sum total of coSmic knowl- edge.
 In the marvellous and hazardous exploration of Aniakchak, ShiSh- aldin and Katmai, Fr. Hubbard gave the sanction of science to met aphysical hypothesis by employing one of mans greatest achievements, the airplane. The pictures showed Pilots Harry Blunt, "The Boring Sea Eagle" and Al MunSon, dar- ing the gas-laden etheral strata to dive into the very portals ot what Fr. Hubbard facetiouSly char acterized as time-honored concep- tionS of Satan's workshop.
 The famed scientist, lecturer and author, was not stinting in his praise of the courage and intrepid ity of Blunt, and graphically des- cribed the moment when the plane dropped several thousand feet in- to what appeared sure death, and the dexterity and coolneSS of the master head directing the controls and in a split second doing the correct thing. ~
 The audience saw the plane breasting beakers, leaping into the air to land again upon the flashing pillows, fluttering like a wounded bird, regaining it's poise and chal- lenging the empyrean precincts of the great eagles, there to race them and contest their rights.
 New activities of Aniakchak, not observed on Fr. Hubbard'S last visit to the playground of Vulcan, were recorded and analysed.
 In giving Seward a premiere Fr. Hubbard explained that it was pos sible for explorers and picture mak- CTS to at times flake" scenes. There fore he accepted the acid test of Alaskans closet to the scene of his summers and winters work as to the question of pure stage" stuff compared to the real article.
 It was also explained that the display and lecture was for the benefit of the local parish-that the church needed a roof and oth- CT improvements Therefore, while enjoying highly entertaining and instructive display and lecture the audience at the same time partici- pated in most worthy enterprise.
 Immediately after the lecture Fr. Hubbard, accompanied by his loyal pals and assistants, Roderick Chis- holm, Edgar Levin, Fr. Paul Gal tes and Kenneth Chisholm, sailed aboard the staunch little motor ship Polor Bear for the vicinity of Cape St. Elias, where he will fin lsh the season exploring and film ing the glacier fields AS was pre- Viously reported, Jack Morton, the Anchorage youth who also accom- panied the expedition, returned to his home the day following their arrival here.
