Early Markets Absorb
Four Cars of Turkeys

Thousands of turkeys have been
shipped from Kennewick during
the past two weeks to supply the
Thanksgiving tables thruout the
Northwest California and even
Honolulu.
One dealer disclosed a shipment
of two cars to Seattle markets.
while another shipment went to
California, and another to Spo-
kane. A number of the fine big
birds were also sent out earlier to
markets in Honolulu, T. H.
Farmers were said to receive
from 16 to 10 cents a pound for
the dressed birds.
Turkey raising in the Kenne-
wick, Richland and Finley Hover
districts is fast becoming an inn
portant industry and each sea-
son finds farmers flocks increas-
ing in large numbers. It haze been
found the birds thrive remarkably
well here and fatten readily.
In addition to the Thanksgiving
shipments thousands of birds are
being held for the Christmas and
New Year markets.

Gold Seekers Pan for
Metal Along Columbia

With the fruit work for the sea-
son practically completed and the
warehouse activities at an almost
standstill for the year, a few UNI
employed men of this section are
turning their attention to the
washing of gold along the rich
sand and gravel beds of the Col
umbia.
Several sluice boxes and gold
panning outfits can be seen along
the river from north of Richland
to south of Hover.
Those working the sands and
gravel, frankly admit that while
the average daily reward is small,
and the work hard. they are still
making little money.
One local druggist reported
weighing out a little over an ounce
of the precious yellow metal for
one of the seekers. The yield was
said to have been the reward of
several days. work.

YOUNG TREES
TO BE PRUNED
VERY LIGHTLY
Will Hasten Production if
Not Cut Too Severely; 1t
Should Not Be Neglected
Any Year

Now that the pruning season is
here again the orchardist will wish
to avail himself of every possible
method of reducing cost and still
do satisfactory job of pruning,
according to L. L. Claypool, Hor-
ticulturist of the Irrigation
Branch Experiment Station. He
states that the primary purpose
of pruning are: first, to develop a
good framework for later produc-
tion; second, to bring young trees
into profitable production as early
as possible; and third, to main
tain sufficient vigor to keep the
trees in annual habit of bearing.
Investigations at the station
have shown light pruning to be
superior to moderate or heavy
pruning when the orchard is young
because lightly pruned trees come
into bearing at least one or two
years earlier than severely prun-
ed trees and will come into full
bearing as much as four or five
years ahead of severely pruned
young treess. Expense may be re-
duced if pruning of young trees is
confined entirely to that necessary
to shape the tree.
After trees begin producing fair
yields the severity of pruning will
need to be increased in order TO
maintain vigor and keep the trees
in an annual habit of bearing. The
more vigorous a tree, the less
purning will need to be done in or
der to maintain production. The
pruning treatment should consist
primarily of removing branches
that interfere with cultural opera
tions and in thinning out the
fruiting wood in the top of the
tree.
A great many orchardists prune
too severely to ever receive maxi
mum production from their or
chards. However, pruning should
by no. means be discontinued even
for one year no matter how diff
cult conditions may be. Such a
practice would result in poor yields
for several years 10 come and it
would be difficult to get the trees
back into uniform production.

Festival at ME. Church

A score of booming fun factor

ing citizens will transform the
basement of the Methodist church
into the bridge cities most pleas
ure palace on next Friday night,
December 2, if the End annual Har-
vest Festival is as popular as the
first festival held year ago. The
harvest celebration this year is be-
ing sponsored by Troop 26 of the
local Boy Scouts.
The Harvest Festival will serve
three-fold purpose this fall. It
Will provide a celebration for the
elimination of the harvest sea-

food of any kind. Anything from a
half dozen apples, or can Of
pork and beans to a discarded ov-
ercoat will be accepted. Everything

the philadelphia North American,
saving Gimme one, me sisters got
it, the success of the Christmas
seal as the accepted medium for
fighting tuberculosis was assur-
ed" said Mrs. Buchanan.
sThat spirit has made the TWEEN
ty-fiye sales since then success
full and bids fair to carry the TWEEN
ty-sixth to success also. 1t is the
spirit of sympathy and under
standing; the spirit which has
built our sanatoria; enjoyed the
county nurses; burned the mid
night oil in the research labora-
tories and brought thousands of
workers into the volunteer cam
paign against tuberculosis. 1t has
thrown the facts about the di-
sease before the public eye and
has fastened attention upon the
simple methods of curing and pre-
vention. And thus it has saved
lives.
so the twenty-six million seals
on sale throughout our state be-
tween Thanksgiving and Christ
mas will find that the love and
sef-sacrifice of that first little
purchaser still lives, and will fur
nish funds for the work in 1888. =
With the distribution of these
penny Christmas seals to every
county in the estate, the Tuber-
culosis Association has set in mo-
ton the machinery by which funds
for the volunteer grogram against
tuberculosis for the coming year
will be raised.
The seals can always be identi-
fled by the scarlet double-barred
cross of the tuberculosis Associa-
ton.
A Christmas seal on every let
ter and package mailed during De-
cember throughout Washington is
the aim of prominent citizens all
over the state, serving as leaders
in the twenty-sixth annual sale.
There is no connection whatever
between the Red Cross member
ship drive, which began Armistice
Day and the Christmas Seal sale.

and there is gong to be plenty of
trouble.
In anticipation OF such condi-
ton, word has reached Olympia
that the state stands to lose one
of its greatest money producing
industries and Seattle alone stands
to lose q business which in round
figureN reaches more than $2O,-
0O0, 900 yearly.
Astoria, Oregon, will be the
beneficiary. Already plans have
been made to take to Astoria the
tremendous fishing industry bust
ness now enjoyed by Puget Sound
ports. In other words the future
will see the Alaska cannery and
fishery fleet outfitted on the Col
umbia river, and the packs carried
there for storage and shipment.
The industry expects to leave
Seattle and the state entirely.
Reason-the income tax and the
threat on the part of Seattle radi-
Gals now apparently in control of
things that they "intend to see
that exploiters of natural re-
sources are taxed out of exist
ance."

to study this last act are now
shaking their heads There are
grave doubts that the income tax
will raise any large amount Of
revenues. In fact there is Z feel
ing that it will p rove more cost
" in many ways than the state
can afford.
The income tax bill cannot tax
incomes exempt bonds. Recently
! many millions Of these were turn
ed lose on the state and more are
to come.
Investors or persons Of wealth
will simply hide their money in
these bonds and tell the state tax
collectors to go to.
Also, and this is most import
ant, investing capital will fight
mighty shy Of going into industry
and business where the income can
be levied upon under both state
and national income tax
This will tend to keep new cap
j ital out Of the state.
Wisconsin's recent history is
one at point.
| Consider the 4O-mill act and the
| income tax bill together. A man
with an income Of $500 yearly
j and living in Seattle where he pays
let us say, 500 year taxes un-
der a II mill levy. He will only
have to pay $50 under the 4O-mill
I limitation
| On his income he will be taxed
! $27.5O total. But he is allowed So
deduction from this and can also
! deduct the $50 Of what he pays on
his home. Hence he will pay no in
come tax, yet the school district or
other districts loose in this one in
stance an income Of $40 besides
] paying an additional sum for
having the income tax blanks mail
led out and returned, checked and
audited.
| Proponents Of the income tax
measure assert it will gather in
! the sheckles OF the rich. Nothing
/ is further from the truth. The
rich can invest their capital where
tit cannot be reached. The fairly
well-to-do, the thrifty saving peo-
/ pie, are the ones who will carry
the burden in the future as in the
past.
The proponents of the measure
also feel that corporations and
Big Business will be doubly as
sessed and will be forced to carry
an additional load. This is also a
falacy because business and indus
/ try already so heavily taxed they
can hardly exist, will move out Of
the state.
The railroads for years have
battled the tax fight. They along
with other public service corpora
tions are now being told that the
new state administration desires
| to reduce their operating expenses
and increase their operating costs
! through increased taxes voted by
1 the people.
This means some more long
and costly litigation, or the loss of
the transportation facilities in the
state to the shippers.
Already there are indications
that business and industry gener-
ally is fearful Of the income tax
initiated and voted by the people.
Place the enforcement of this in
the hands of the radically inclined

(By Jimmie K. Browne)
It is beginning to look as if the
various taxing units of the state
are going to face few mighty
lean years.
The voters have adopted the 40
mill limitation act. This means
that no real and personal proper
ty can be taxed for more than 40
mills of it's assessed value.
Schol districts are going to be
hit hard unless the county assess
ors double valuations for tax pur-
poses. Advocates Of the 4O-mill
plan aver, however, this cannot be
done under their bill.
Then the state had adopted the
income tax measure to raise reve-
nues to pay the current school
funds for what they will lose on
