Initial steps toward organizing
a local Rod and Gun club were
taken at a meeting in the high
school building here last night.
The club was formed to cooperate
with the Benton County Rod and
Gun club, and is to be known as
the Kennewick unit of the coun-
ty club.
A permanent set of officials
were elected with Donald Visger
as president; Ed Watts, vice pres
ident; Boyd Jacobs, secretary;
Robert Brown. treasurer; and Joe
Martin elected as director to the
Benton county central organiza-
ton.
DR.. Robert Lundy, Joe Martin
and Glen Utz were appointed by
the president to draw up a tenn
porary set of bylaws and consti-
tuition to be submitted at the next
meeting, Wednesday, March 8, at
the city hall.

Kennewick cops can no longer
consider themselves as official
weather temperature authorities,
now that their pet and much thot
of thermometer has been removed
by some vandal from its conven-
lent vantage point along side the
police station window.
The prize thermometer had been
the pride of the force, due to its
faithful accuracy, and the Off
GERS said that if it were replaced
or another one Of the same kind
substituted, no questions would be
asked of anyone nor any investi-
cation conducted.
Night officer Bert Moores first
discovered the loss a few days
ago when returning from his
rounds in the wee small hours Of
the morning he found the instru-
ment missing from its bracket on
seeking to verify reports of ris-
ing spring temperatures.
Officer Moores didn't find II
the atmosphere was getting any
hotter, but he did admit he felt 8
little hot under the collar when hi
discovered the loss.

WATER COST is
SET AT SAME
FIGURE AGAIN
s1.1O of $3.50 Charge to Go
to Old Warrant Fund which
Has Been Cut from $4,000
to $500; Last Time

With the irrigation season rap
idly approaching preparatory
work is being rushed on the Col
umbia Irrigation Districts canal
system so that the water can be
available at the usual time. On ac-
count of the late cold spell, the
concreting work is behind sched-
ule, says Frank Maupin, secretary.
During the past winter two
units of the revision plan have
been largely completed-the en-
larging and Strengthening of Bad
ger flume and bank raising. These
jobs are done under agreement
with the Kennewick Irrigation Dis
trict and 20 percent of the cost is
furnished by them. A large crew
started Monday of this week on
the concrete lining for the main
canal just above the State High
way bridge and will have it COM
pleted by the end of this week.
This job also comes under the
Highlands contract. On the upper
main canal clay and gravel lining
has been placed on several Of the
stretches. On the lower part of
the system lateral one has been
given one Of the most thorough
cleanings it has ever had. There
have this section ready for water.
remains only a few days work to
The personnel of the districts
force will remain the same as last
season with the exception of one
patrolman, who will be laid off by
consolidating two of the beats.
Thomas Duncan, who patrolled the
Hedges beat last season, will be
located at the head of the Al inch
pipe line and will add about two
miles of the short beat to his for
mer route. The upper end near
town will be added to Lowell Shoe
makers beat. This will mean a
saving in operation costs of sew
eral hundred dollars each irriga-
ton season.
Operation and maintenance rates
will be the same as last year, $3.50
per acre. Of this, approximately
$1.10 per acre goes to retire the
old warrant debt, which has been
reduced from total of over $780,
900 to $1,000. This year will no
doubt be the last time it will be
necessary to levy for this pur-
pose.
Toll statements have been is
sued on city property during the
past week and payments are COM
ing in rapidly. Statements will be
issued on farm property next week.
Payments are to be made in the
same manner as heretofore, May
l June / and August 1.
Many inquiries have reached
the office relative to the irrigation
statements received in some cases
from the County Treasurer 7 on
properties signed up under the
bond readjustment plan. The Bond
company hoped to avoid this con-
fusion, but the Treasurer's state
ment were issued contrary to a
previous agreement, and they
should be disregarded and pay
ments made direct to the company.
Their statements will be issued
soon.

PERSONAL TAX
PAYMENTS MAY
BE DIVIDED

Those pink sheets which most
citizens received the last of the
week from the county treasurer
were married with a lot of blue
lines running thru the second par.
agraph. More or less confusion has
existed in regard to the payment
of the taxes, so The Courier-Re-
porter has written to the county
treasurer, who has made the fol-
lowing reply:
With reference to the payment
of personal property taxes, at the
time the statements were written,
the law allowing one half of per-
sonal property taxes to be paid be-
fore March Is, only applied to the
years 1881 and 1882. Since then
the legislature has re-enacted this
law with practically the same pro-
visions as the former law and
which reads as follows:
"Sec. 224. Payment of Per-
sonal Property Taxes. When
ever the total amount of per-
sonal taxes falling due in the
year 1881 or the year 1892,
payable by one person, is
$1,000 or more, then if one
half of such taxes be paid on
or before the 18th day of Mar.
in such year. then the time of
payment of the remainder
thereof shall be extended, and
said remainder shall be due
and payable on or before the
30th day of November. follow
ing: but If the remaining one
half of such taxes be not paid
on or before the said 30th day
Of November. then such re-
manning one-haf shall be de-
linquent, and interest at the
rate of IL percent per annum
shall be charged thereon from
the 18th day Of March proceed
ing until paid"
So we will accept half payment
on personal property providing the
amount is $40 or over, the same al
heretofore.

Often the workers are asked how
the money is distributed.
Our contract says that we pay
40 per cent on five seals per capita
and 20 per cent on all amounts
over five seals to the state asso-
citation. The remainder stays in
Benton county for health work.
This year our money is distri-
buted as follows: Seal sale $388.03
400 to state, $155.21, while the
Benton county league retains the
remainder, $232.82.
The expense this year is about
$4,000, leaving about $152.82 to
carry on the work for year in
the county.
AS the League work is pre-
ventive program, the children of
the county will from time to time
have the services of a nutrition
worker and free clinics will be held.
Though the total receipts are not
as much as last year. some COM
munities have gone ahead of last
year and we find Kiona- Benton
has the largest sale in its history.
Despite the lack of money this year
many who have never bought seals
before have contributed this year.
Again we thank all who in any
way helped to make this years
