Work To Begin On
Prosser Cutoff

Plans for the construction Of the
Benton City Horn road, along With
three other works projects in Benton
county, were approved by the county
welfare board at meeting Monday
evening in Prosser.
Other projects to be started are the
playfield development. in Prosser, paw
ing and draining of seven blocks OF
street in Kennewick, and Improvement
of the high school athletic field IN
KenneWick.
Attempts were also started to have
the Benton county quota Of $50 men
under the Civil Works Administration
increased to $50. "A survey of relief
cases was taken, showing we have 300
in the county," w. G. Sommers, chair
man, said, "and we should be entitled
to at least $50 workers"
In the Benton City-Horn road pro-
gram, the county commissioners will
pay the overhead costs and furnish the
supervision, and the relief board prom
ised that not less than 20 per cent of
all relief workers will be used on the
project. That promise was made SO that
the county will not be in need OF
workers once the camps are set up and
construction work is started.
Ten miles of new road will be built
opening new route from the Hanford-
White Bluffs district to Prosser. Con-
struction of the road has been sought
for several years.

District To Award
Contract Nov. Goth

Bids on the furnishing Of a new
water wheel and on the repairing OF
the present turbine at the power plant
at Priest Rapids were opened Tuesday
evening by the directors OF the Priest
Rapids Irrigation District. The contract
for this work will be awarded Sunday
afternoon at meeting In the CONNER
cial Hotel, Yakima.
The bids submitted for the furnish
ing and installation of new wheel
were:
Allis-C Chalmers Co. ......................$l3,ll5
James Leffel Co. ................,....... 1885
Newport News Shipbuilding
and Drydock Co. ..-................. 1881
The above bids do not include the
cost of dismantling the present wheel
and installing the new unit The Allls-
Chalmers company included these ag-
ures in separate part of their bid, the
complete cost to the district being $l8,-
500. The other two bidders did not fig
ure on these costs.
Bids on the repairing of the present
unit were:
Commercial Iron Works.. $4,000
Pacific Iron & Steel Co... l2,9475o
w. H. Tierney Co.................. lax 300
The specifications of the Tirney COM
pany included bronze runners, while
the other two bids specified cast or
steel runners. The Tierney company
entered an alternative bid for steel
runners at a reduction of $2,435, or a
net price of $l2,554.
Bidders on the installation of new
wheel argued that the present unit Is
now badly damaged that the proper
tional cost of repairs is too great, and
that even after repairs have been made
the power output per year would be
only a small portion as compared to
the power output of a new unit Pr
catti Brothers of Yakima, who pre-
sented the Allis- Chalmers bid, drew a
graph showing production OF 22O kilo-
watts at head of IL feet with the
present unit while the propeller type OF
water wheel, on which they are bidding
would generate $50 XIV. at this head
At the rate of Its mills per XIV, the
. price~at' which the power is sold to thu
P. P, q L. company, this would NEAR
an extra earning of SAILS per month
they say The graph also showed thai
their type of wheel reaches the maxi
mum output of 1850 XIV at head Of
% feet, while the present unit doe!
not reach the 1850 XIV. stage at les!
than a 26-foot head.
Bidders on the repair job claimed
that the repairs could be made a
much less cost than the installation
of new wheel and that the resultan
product would give the same perform
, ance as a new wheel.

Winesap Crop
Has Only 80
Per Cent Culls
WOLFE RANCH ALSO PRODUCES
REMARKABLY HIGH GRADE
PACKOUT

When it comes to producing fine
apple crops with a minimum OF culls,
one of the best records made by or
chardists in this valley is the Wine
sap packout on the Anderson Orchards.
G. G.. Anderson who, since taking over
the management of this orchard sew
eral years ago, has endeavored to pro-
duce crops of the highest quality, was
rewarded this year with Gull percent
age of only 80 per cent.
Due to the fact that in most varieties
c grade apples are not being packed, 1t
is difficult to compare production re-
ports of this year with those OF previous
seasons, except in the case OF Wlnesaps,
the grade and pack regulations for TINS
species being more nearly the same as
last years than in other varieties Also,
since the bulk of the apple crop grown
in this valley is of the Winesap variety,
| the Spokesman has been using them
for comparative purposes in recording
the percentage of culls.
In 1882 the Anderson Orchards pro-
duced a total packout of 9722 boxes, in
Guiding Jonathans, Delicious, Spitzen-
bergs and Winesaps This packout was
72.1 per cent of the total crop grown.
They produced packout Of Winesaps
last year with a Gull percentage OF only
81 per cent.
This year the Gull percentage was de-
creased to 80 per cent Of the 12,-
OF the 1908 packed boxes of Winesaps,
564 loose Tugs grown, or 6O5 boxes.
2,6O9 were extra fances, 4,265 were
fancies and 1853 were Cs. There were
also 472 boxes of apples, 216's and small
ler extra fancies, fancies and C's,
which were not packed but were put i'll
storage. The total packout of all varl-
cites on this orchard, this season was
10, 174 boxes.
In producing such clean crop as
this. Mr.. Anderson applied only four
cover sprays, using l and " per cent
oil along with arsenate of lead In two
of these. At the same time, the cost OF
growing the apples was cut in half. The
cost of production at picking time was
reduced this year by about % cents,
while the entire cost Of production, IN
Guiding growing, picking, packing, stor-
age and loading, was approximately
thirty cents less than last year.
Another clean Winesap crop produced
In this valley was that grown on the II.
l.. Wolfe orchard, managed by Earl
Soden. Out of packout OF 5,912 loose
Tugs, there we're only 3e7 boxes OF culls
7 or a Gull percentage Of 81 per cent
-One of the remarkable features OF
. this percentage is the fact that the APP
s pies were hauled in loose Jugs to Sun
r nyside, a distance of SO miles, to be
s packed. Furthermore, of the 59l2 Tugs
e there were only 16 boxes Of G grace
: fruit. Since it is generally conceded
c that a large percentage of culls and C,'
d are caused by bruising while in transit
from the orchard to the packing house
4 this is one of the most remarkable
n records yet brought to the attention O
: the Spokesman.

PosToFFICE CLOSED NOV. 80

There will be no mail delivery on
Thanksgiving Day either in Whlte
Bluffs or Hanford. The train and stage
mail will be distributed to the box
holders and will be sent out as usual
but the postoffices will not open Tor
business transactions. Neither will mali
be carried on the rural routes.
There has been some confusion IN
this matter owing to the fact that the
customary postal routine was observed
on Armistice Day. usually thought OF
as legal holiday for all workers. Postal
regulations provide for holidays only
on Washington's Birthday, Memorial
Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day
Thanksgiving, Christmas and new
