BENTON MEN TO
GET SHARE OF
ROAD WORK
Congressman Summers Sc
cures Jobs for Residents
on This Side; WaIIa WaIIa
Has Crew Fired

Residents of Benton and Frank
lin counties are faring even bet
ter than they expected in the mat
ter of securing work on the Wal
lula cutoff job, according to Geo.
ID. Peters, who is handling the
labor supply. On account Of q
complaint made by Walla Walla,
the ten men from this county who
had been employed for the past
two weeks in the clearing work for
the new job, were laid off. A like
number from Franklin county was
also laid off.
The complaints were made to
Congressman John w. Summers
who was told by the walla walla
interest that foreign labor entire
ly was being employed Inasmuch
as the job is part of the federal
relief work, upon which there are
restrictions in regard to the la
Dor, the congressman Immediately
took the matter up with Direct
or Of Highways, Humes.
Immediately the local men were
cut off. Under the direction Of the
local relief committe, the matter
was taken up from here with Con-
gresham Summers, who under
standing the entire situation,
worked out plan for a distribu-
ton of the labor.
The federal relief provision, un-
der which the work is being done,
provides that labor first shall be
secured from the county in which
the work is being done. next from
adjoining counties and then from
the state at large. DIR. Summers
has secured an agreement that
twenty percent Of the labor shall
be taken from Benton, a like per-
centage from Franklin and the
remainder from Walla Walla
county. This is an even better
percentage than was originally
hoped for, and viii enable the To-
cal committee to supply q fairly
large number work this fall.

LOCAL GIRL is
STATE WINNER
IN STYLE SHOW
Miss Lois Brue Scores 100 20
at Yakima Fair; Gets Trip
to Chicago to Compete for
National Honors

Benton county All Club girls
received more than their share of
the awards at the State Fair. Lois
Brue of Kennewick, member of
the Double L All Club, led by
Mrs. E. C. Smith, won the state
style show which entities her to
a trip to Chicago at the time of
the international Livestock show
with all her expenses paid by the
Chicago Mail Order House. At
Chicago she will compete in the
national style show. The winner in
each of the four classes in this
event is given a three weeks trip
to points of historical interest in
New England. This trip is to be
taken next July and the expenses
to be paid by the same firm.
Lois outfit was perhaps the
most perfect one ever to be shown
at a All style show in this state.
The Judge graded her 100 percent
in every respect. The points con-
sidered in scoring a complete cos
tune are workmanship, complete
ness of costume, suitability to the
occasion for which made and be-
comingness in line and color to the
individual. In all of these points
Lois scored 100.
She has proven that large
outlay is not necessary for one TO
be correctly and beautifully dress
ed. Twenty-three dollars covered
the cost of her underwear, dress,
shoes, hose, hat, gloves and bag
and indeed she looked as if she
had stepped out of the shop of a
modiste. Her blue wool dress Of
the latest material and style with
its smart trimmings of three silver
buttons and becoming and youth
full white silk collar left nothing
70 be desired. With it, she wore a
black hat with black and white
trim, black pumps, dark gunmetal
hose and white gloves. Her bag
was black. Entrants in this com

Conflict in Dates Cause for
Poor Attendance; Program

Plans for Financing

Benton County Pomona Grange
met with Rattlesnake subordi-
nate Saturday September 10. which
was one of the poorest attended
Pomonas we have had for some
time. Attendance no doubt was
seriously cut by the Benton-Frank-

this time. 1t seems difficult To get
date early in September when
there is not conflict either with
the local fair or the state fair.
There was very little business
transaction during either the aft
ernoon or evening session. The
main item brought up was the
discussion of Pennsylvania plan
of financing the Pomona organi-

An interesting phase of the ex-
perimental work at the Irrigation
Branch Experiment station is that
of investigating new varieties of
various kinds of crops. The term
ssnew varieties" includes all var
ieties that have not been thoroly
tested under irrigated conditions
in this state. These new varieties
are either varieties that are STAN
dard in other localities or they
are absolutely new varieties that
have been produced by hybridiza-
ton Or mutation. New varieties
are compared with varieties of
known value. A large percentage
Of them prove to be inferior to the
varieties which are common to the
irrigated sections. However, a
few new varieties which prove to
be Of greater value than the ones
commonly g1own justify the
spending of considerable time and
effort in determining these val
