SURPRISE

Probably more deserving Of the
title Of "spoiler" than any Of his
contemporaries, Gino Garibaldi,
italian firebrand, returns here to-
morrow night in the hope Of
wrecking another big time build
UP, namely that of the 218-
FOUNDER, Ernie Dusek.
When Garibaldi and Dusek last
met, Ernie was awarded the palm
after stormy session. Although
both were knocked completely out
Ernie remained inside the mat
face down, thereby getting the de-
cision.

GOLDDIGGERS
SHOWS COLOR
Several Groups Work Sand
Along River Banks; No
Rush Yet Noted

Numerous residents of the Ken
newick region are reported to be
making a living wage by gold
sluicing along the banks of the
Columbia and Yakima rivers,
while some who have discovered
richer grounds are reported to be
making good profit.
A great variety of rigs are be-
ing used, and some of the more
elaborate affairs use small gaso-
line motors to pump water thru
the sluice troughs.
Local druggists report weighing
out much gold after it has been
reclaimed from the black sands.
The gold is melted out into small
crucible moulds, and is then for
warded to the United States mint.
Sluicers along the Columbia
river are working feverishly in an
attempt to move as much dirt as
possible before the rising waters
flow over the gravel beds in which
the coveted yellow metal is found.
One of the richest finds is said to
be worked by Lester Larson, Ken
meth Hitler, and Joe Hatch on the
banks of the Yakima a few miles
north of Richland. The young men
are using unique sluice rig and
run a heavy stream of water thru
the troughs by utilizing a power
full pump. Their claim will be
workable the year around and will
not be affected by high water.

WINTER KILLS
ALFALFA CROP
Good Seed Important in Re-
planting; Rotate Crops is
Advice

Much of the alfalfa in the
county has been seriously injured
if not entirely killed by the. win
ter freezing. We occasionally,
however, find fields where the
stand is practically 100 percent
good, says report from the coun-
ty agents office. In checking up
on these fields we sometimes find
that the seed has come from
strains grown in the northern tier
of states including Montana and
the Dakotas. In some cases the
sources of the seed is not def
nitely known.
The experiment station at Pros
ser has always recommended the
northern grown seed, but this has
included seed from the higher al
titudes in Montana and even
Utah, we believe. With such a
winter as We just past through it
would seem that the seed from the
colder regions of this general area
has come nearer producing a crop
which could stand our winters than
any other.
1t would seem advisable on the
part of those looking about for
alfalfa seed this year to watch
rather closely the source from
which seed will be bought.
Quite little in the way of in
surance that the crop will have
the best protection can be secured
through late watering of the al
falfa crop. In other words late
watered crop seems to Withstand
cold winter weather especially
when unprotected with snow, than
if allowed to go into the winter
dry.
In arranging for hay for the
coming season if crop is to be
seeded on rather wet ground prob
ably oats or wheat will make one
of the best cash crops. If the
seeding is to be done on light warm
soils that are well drained we have
had some very good reports on SUI
dan Grass under these conditions.
We do not advise trying to reseed
alfalfa on fields where there is
still 25 or 80 percent of stand,
or where the alfalfa has been in
for more than the one year. We
feel it would be much better to
rotate this ground before seeding
back to alfalfa.

Fret National Bank of KenneWlck
10 reopen unrestrictedly
Rank officials report as a re-
sult an increase in deposits, an in
crease in cash and a very salts
factory liquidation of loans as the
Immediate result of the action.
The local Institution operated
under the bank sterilization act
since March 2. For the following
three weeks until the formal per,
mil had been received, limited
business was permitted, although
withdrawals of previous deposits
was forbidden.
Following the national Monday,
governmental restrictions were
placed upon all banks and certain
ripid requirements were demand
ed before an institution was per-
mitted to reopen for unrestricted
business. Local directors of the in
stitution, which was in unusually
sound condition, complied with all
the regulations but the vast
amount of detail work the dis
trict offices were required to do
slowed up the reopening of many
of the banks in the smaller local
-ities The Kennewick institption
mas among the first in the latter
class to receive its permit.
Despite the season in which,
even in normal times deposits drop
eff, Cashier E. C. Tweet states
that since last Friday deposits
have increased better than S10,-
600 and that the amount of cash
on hand has increased more than
s25, 900.
Considering that at this time of
the year the community has no
income, it was felt that the in
crease noted spoke well for the
confidence which citizens have for
the local bank.
Business as usual is now the or
der of the day and all lines have
resumed their normal seasonal
activity.
@People have confidence again
in banks" Mr.. Tweet stated. "They
seem to believe it when we say
that the Kennewick bank is now
stronger, safer and better than it
ever was before. We feel that the
country has started on its climb
back to normalcy, and that within
a short time the period thru which
We have just passed will have be-
come an interesting memory"

CHAMBER TO
CELEBRATE
GRASS TIM E
Early Crop to Feature Eve
ming Meeting Spokane Man
to Make Principal Talk;
Expect Publicity

Kennewick's early season will
be celebrated by the annual Cham
Der of Commerce asparagus din
ner next Thursday evening at Ho-
tel Kennewick.
Fresh, long green Kennewick
asparagus will be featured thru
out the meal and past experience
and future prospects of the indus
try will be the main features in
the program. For this occasion the
chamber hopes to secure speaker
from Spokane and the newspaper
boys from Spokane, Walla Walla
and Yakima will be invited to par
ticipate of the stats first and ear
Hest crop. 1t is expected that the
quality of the local grass will so
please the writer's that column
after column will be used to ex-
tol the virtues of the famous Ken
newick product.
The backward spring has made
the annual dinner come somewhat
earlier in the cutting season than
ordinarily, but by another week
it is expected that shipments on a
commercial scale will be under
way. Small quantities are being
received now, but cooler weather
is retarding growth.
While other districts are just
beginning to get spring farm work
under way, the Kennewick district
will be receiving returns from the
grass crop. The advantages Of
such location will be the princi-
pal topic Of the meeting next week.

BEAVERS HURT
CANAL BANKS
Warden Gets "a this Year;
PeIts Sold; Hunting Dogs
Must Be Tied Up

Benton county game authorities
have declared war upon predatory
water animals that are said to be
endangering the Richland and Ken
newick irrigation systems. N. E.
Palmer, game authority, said that
beaver and muskrats in the dis
trict have been multiplying very
rapidly since the state protection
was placed On them about 3 years
ago.
During the past week Palmer
and ane assistant have trapped
90 beavers and a number of musk
rats. The animals are skinned and
the hide sent to the state game
department at Olympia, where
they are sold to fur buyers. The
money is diverted to the state
game fund.
Palmer said that over a three
year period beaver skins taken in
Benton county have averaged $25
each.
He declared that the metal spin
ners set out in the Finley Hover
region have succeeded in driving
away the hordes of wild water
fowl, and pheasants that were do
ing heavy damage to newly seeded
lands.
He also warned that owners of
bird dogs will be compelled to keep
them from running at large be-
tween April / and August 1.
The fishing season will official
ly open in the county April first,
Palmer revealed.

APPLY EARLY
TO GET LOAN
Durdle Gives Information Re-
garding Seed and Apple
Loans from r. F. C.

Seed loans made through the
hands of local committee, coun-
ty committee and the inspector for
the Yakima Valley and the Mime
apolis office will be continued I'M
til April Both. These loans, let US
remind you again, are for a max
imum of $500, according to E. c..
Durdle, county agent.
The maximum for the various
crops. is $500 per acre and gener-
al crops including corn, alfalfa
and small grain, $1,000 for truck
crops inclusive of potatoes and
$500 for orchard. If commercial
fertilizers are to be used on truck
crops then an additional $500 may
be borrowed for this purpose.
The maximum amount to be
planted to truck crops by any
borrower is 2 1-2 acres, unless one
had in more than four acres Of
truck crops last season. The max
imum amount on potatoes is S
acres unless there were more than
IL acges planted last year. If one
planted more than this acreage
last year then the acreage to be
planted this year must be only 20
percent of the acreage planted
last year. Water or feed for live
stock or any thing to be used in
repairs of equipment must come
within t he above maximum
amounts.
The situation on the apple loan
as near as we have been able to
get h to date is that now the re-
gional agricultural credit corpor-
alton will loan up to So 1-2 cents
per box on the security of the crop
mortgage. There is a little ques-
tion in regard to this as there may
be some situations where the gov
eminent will require additional Sc
curly. If one is to require more
than this for the growing Of the
crop the additional security must
be given as chattel mortgage on
equipment or livestock OF first
mortgage on the lesa estate. Of
course every one realizes that it
will require more than SO 1-2 cents
to grow and pack and sell d box
of apples but there undoubtedly
will be some growers who will
have additional income from earl
Ter crops whom may be in posi-
tion to get by with loan Of SO
1-2 cents or less.
Blanks for these loans are now
available at the county agents Of
flee and the bank and we shall be
glad to explain these to any grow
er wishing to come to the office.
Applications should be made just
as early as possible unless one is
in a position to take care of the
dormant spray without this financ-
ing. Growers in other communities
than the Kennewick community
who are interested in having this
matter explained farther may have
the county agent arrange for con-
tact meetings. We hope to have
additional information before an
other weeks news.

Apple Prices Up
AS Storage Rolls

Increased activities along fruit
row were very noticeable here this
week, as increased car load ship
ments of apples started to roll, and
prices steadily mounting.
Several cars rolled from the Big
Y last week, and over six cars
have moved this week. The price
was said to be about $1.00 a stan
dard box, fob. Kennewick, and is
regarded as substantial raise
over what was being received for
Winesaps earlier in the year.
Apple growers were feeling
more optimistic as the fruit they
have been holding in cold storage
gives every evidence of finding
profitable markets.
