ADVISES CLARK
AND WRAY RED
FOR PLANTING
Big Y Manager Says that Quail
ity Must Be Maintained if the
Berry Business is to Be Br0t
Back Again +:

IF Kennewick is to regain and
maintain it's enviable reputation as a
high grade strawberry producing dis
trict it must discard the various low
quality berries that have been intro
duced in the past few years. The day
was when any berry from Kennewick
was eagerly grabbed up by the trade,
regardless of variety, but that day is
past. The trade has learned that
there is difference and are willing
to pay for quality" said manager il.
w. Desgranges of the Big Y. "There
is a general revival of interest in
strawberry culture manifested. Al
most every day am asked what var
iety would recommend planting.
After twenty-five years of experience
of growing and marketing strawber-
ries I would unhesitatingly recon-
mend Clark's Seeding and the new
Wray Red. I would advise planting
these moderately until they have had
a year or two more trial to test out if
any weaknesses may develop. It is a
berry Of high quality, highly colored
and carries well. would say twin
brother of the Clark's. 1t blooms over
a longer period of time and hence
should give better yields. It is worthy
of thorough trial.
They stand in class alone. They
are peculiarly adapted to the soils and
climate along the Columbia river and
can not be successfully grown in 9TH
er sections. Our people should CAPT.
talize this natural advantage.
eff the growers will return to the
old spirit of growing quality berries
and then seeing to it that only quail
ity berries are put in the pack, it can
in this way and this way only main
tain the reputation of the Kennewick
strawberry"

TRANSOCEAN AIR
SERVICE FORECAST
Guggenheim Expert Sees De-
velopment as Possible
During New Year.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PASADENA, Calf, January l.
Transatlantic air transport with pas
sage in 10 to IL hours is one of the
possibilities that the new year holds
for aviation, says DR.. Theodor Won
Karman
The director of the Guggenheim
aeronautcs laboratory of the Cali
fornia Institute of Technology here
said today solution of transoceanic air
problems between Europe and this
country was the next big goal in avia-
tiOn. He recommended improvement
of the meteorological service.
There are four possibilities at the
present time with present types OF air
craft" he said
Airship Needs Speed.
THE first is the airship. The air
ship has proved its ability to cross the
ocean with group Of passengers and
a considerable amount Of mail It's rs
to so mile an hour speed seems high
in comparison with the speed of the
fastest ocean liners, but it is rather
low in comparison with the speed of
the heaviest gales raging over the
ocean. 1t seems that the airship ought
to be speeded up, by improvement in
design and propulsion.
The second possibility is the north
ern route. With several stops, no flight
longer than 1920 miles would be nee
essary. The feasibility of transporta-
ton along this northern airway
through the year depends upon bet
ter knowledge Of meteorological con-
ditionS in the Arctic
Floating Islands Possible.
"The third solution is by the use Of
the direct route, erecting floating is
lands as docks for landing. This means
large capital investments.
The fourth solution is to fly on
higher level, about half way between
the present usual level and the limit
Of the stratosphere, increasing the
range so far that the shortest gap over
the Atlantic can be bridged by a nom
stop fight with sufficient payload.
This high altitude would permit 200
mile-an-hour ships that We now have
to fly 800 miles an hour. Storm con-
ditions are avoided. The east-to-west
passage would find a continuous head
wind Of so miles an hour. Such flights
might be made west to east In 10
hours and east to west in II hours"

H0RNER GAINS
SCR|BES

Prospects Of warfare between
trade paper representatives in
Washington and Charles F..
Horner, NRA publicist. were ap-
parently receding today, when Mr..
Horner disclaimed any intention
Of breaking in on their territory.
The difficulties arose as a re-
suit of a circular letter sent by
Mr.. Horner, who publicized the
Blue Eagle drive last summer, to
trade paper editors. In it he vol
unteered to send them, from time
to time, accounts Of what the
NRA Is doing.
In intent, at least, the letter
was wholly innocuous. says Mr..
Horner, but he admits that its
phraSing may have been slightly
at fault If it reached the wrong
quarters. He had intended, he
said, that it should go only to
trade papers which have no
Washington representatives, but
inadvertently a few had gone to
papers represented here.
The reaction of some Of the
trade paper men, apparently, was
that the NRA was trying to do
them out of jobs by covering their
beats direct for the home Office.
