The young mother gives birth to
one baby, the latter part of May OF
the first of June. On her third BIRTH
day she has twins, the usual number
among moose. The nursery is in q
dense thicket, as hidden from prying
eyes at it can be.
Moose husbands are said to be the
most faithful among the deer family
The young follow their mother until
the second year.
Moose are not given to roaming
far and the only reason for drifting
into new locations is food. Lily pads
are the favorite of all and in the
Winter the buds and tender twigs OF
the striped maple, also known as the
moosewood, are eaten.
The enemies listed are man, wolves
cougars and bears. The Canada jay
is their self-appointed watchman. We
are not sure that the act is purely
altruistic. Some young nature lover
will clear this up some day.

sense of hearing is his safest guide.
his eyesight being poor.
The sexes are colored alike. A bull
moose in his prime will be 6 feet
at his withers and weigh 900 pounds.
The coat is rusty brown with neck
forelegs, back and head black. His
nose and lips are pale, the underbody
and inside of ears white.
One of the most interesting features
of the moose is the bell" decora-
ton of skin and hair for which to
the present time no one can find any
reason. The average length is from
8 to 10 inches, but much longer ones
have been recorded. Both sexes have
them.
Antlers-On the second birthday
the young bull moose has two points
which he sheds the following Spring.
The next year he makes a better
showing and has the first prongs.
These are shed in the late Winter
or Spring. The third year notes the
signs of palmation and from now on
there will be greater palmation until
the moose reaches his seventh or
eighth birthday, when they are COM
plete. In old age you will find only
q scallop on the upper part of the
antler.
Locked antlers are found and no
one has been able to disengage them
without running them. These weapons
are grown only for use during the
courting season and after the mar
riage they are dropped. The reason
we see so few of them is that the
porcupine and squirrel are especially
fond of them.
The new ones begin to grow in April
and in three months are ready to
shed the velvet. At first they are
snowy white, but they soon become

North and South had been doing
badly in the duplicate, and were out,
with blood in their eyes, to pick up
points. North opened the bidding
with one heart, and East overcalled
with a spade. South hesitated for
some time. He was not sure that
double would be worth more than
the value of a vulnerable game his
way. AS matter of fact, it isn't,
simply because South can make six no
trump-7l0 points-whereaS East can
probably garner three tricks out OF
the wreckage and 60 down only TOO
points.
At any rate, South decided against
the double. Instead, he bid two no
trumps. North's hand Is nothing to
be proud Of but he decided to con-
struct q tri1e by bidding three dia-
monds. Since North seemed to be
asking for a preference, South gave
him one-''three hearts" North went
to three no trumps, and South found
q four no trump bid. The bidding
then progressed by leaps and bounds
to five no trumps, and thence to six
no trumps.
Having nothing better to do, West
opened a spade. East won the trick
with the queen, and returned small
one of the same suit. Since East may
presumably be trusted, the outstanding
high cards. namely, the king and
queen of spades and the king of clubs,
are all placed in his hand by virtue
of his overcall. Even then, South
unused reflectively, it wasn't so hot.
South took the jack of clubs flnesse,
finding everything according to sched-
ule, and then proceeded to lay down
four rounds of hearts and four rounds
of diamonds. What was East to do?
He could not retain both the king of
spades and the king Of clubs guarded.
South discarded after he did, and
eventually won the last two tricks with
the jack Of spades and the ace Of
clubs, that being as good a way as
any.

1HIS smart dress of monotone
silk is relieved from severity
by the inevitable touch of
L print. The conviction that the
season will be tremendous for
prints leads to their use as trimming
on frocks of plain canton, cloky, syn
thetic crepe and sheer wool.
Soft necklines transform the SIM
plest frocks into garments we like to
own. A noteworthy example of a
new Spring design is seen in the illus
tration A shaped scarf-made in a

bodice of severe cut and stitched there

like expression to the silhouette. the
ends are designed with a grand
spread, intriguingly arranged to sug-
gest slenderness. The belt completes
the effect with a shaped trimming
piece at the center front. Combina-
tions of this type represent the new
est of the Spring fabric alliances.
Many frocks show two solid colors
used together. Navy blue and black
ones feature white. or natural color,
for contrast, choosing moire, tree
bark, satin or mat-surfaced crepe
for the material.

This peculiar culinary use of the
word "high" to indicate a strong
scent bordering on the slightly tainted
Is an interesting throw-back to the
practices of an older and, Of course,
less scientific day.
In olden times the customary way
of providing estates with meat was
by the hunt. Here, the results of a
few days endeavor would supply the
manor with food for some time to
come, the meat being kept in storage
chambers, hung on hooks attached to
shelves.
Cooks being no different from the
rest of us, when they needed meat
helped themselves to the most con-
venient bird or quarter, which, Of
course, would be from the low shelves
It was only when the store would
run low that recourse would be had to
the upper, or high, shelves. And by
that time the meat was high and
had a high" flavor.

vember, 1884, in this valley, being
colder, dryer and, although the past
two weeks have been quite gloomy,
considerably brighter.
According to the weather report of
Gabriel Jaddan at Wahluke, there were
seven clear days, three partly cloudy
and 20 cloudy days last month. In the
same month last year, there were no

Record Crowd At
Club Entertainment

More than two hundred grown ups
and children crowded into Liberty
hall Tuesday evening to review the
boat race pictures taken and shown by
Floyd Hutchins of Kennewick. The
pictures had been shown previously to-
members of the local commercial club
and their friends. Applause and laugh
ter greeted the appearance of each
local person en- the screen, some OF
whom were quite unconscious OF the
fact that they were being photo
graphed while others beat hasty re-
treats at the approach of the camera
or grinned self consciously.
Before the pictures were shown, an
hours entertainment was given by the
school children under the direction of
Mrs. Alice Moede and Mrs. James
Paschen and as a curtain-raiser the
pep band played several selections with
Raymond Broughton playing the Wa
bash Blues as a trombone solo.
First on the school program were
Phyllis Leander and Helen Walker who
appeared under an umbrella to sing
rainy day song They were followed
by a group of first and second graders
who did two folk dances, swinging and
dancing to Mrs. Moede's accompani-
ment. The third number featured
/ Altha Jean Gibbins, Betty Beyers,
Patsy Morford, Yvonne Ponsat and

piled by Mr.. and Mrs. Jesse Rose when

heard a musical saw, it was the first

Hanford And White Bluffs
Meet In White Bluffs
Gym

The 1886 conference basketball
race will get underway in the valley
Friday night when Hanford and White
Bluffs meet in the White Bluffs gym.
In the other conference game OF the
week, Richland meets Benton City on
the latter's floor.
For most fans, Friday nights game
will be their first opportunity to see
the local teams in action. Unlike other
years, there have been no preseason
games and the caliber of the teams
is still an unknown quantity. In a
practice encounter last week, Hanford
downed White Bluffs, 27-15. This was
the only practice game of the season
for the White Bluffs team, a scheduled
game with Bickleton having been post
poned, and Hanford's only previous
practice games had been some with
the town team.
Hanford goes into this season with
almost the same team it had last year,
having lost only It's center, Miller,
from the team which last year cap
tured first place in division honors.
White Bluffs, which took second place,
will have practically a new team, four
of the five regular players having
graduated.
Probable line-ups for Friday nights
game will be:
White Bluffs: Codding, center; Gill
huly and Gibbins, forwards; Grifaths
and Ponsat, guards.
! Hanford: Clark, center; Griner and
Whitwer, forwards; Calza and Brin-
/ son, guards. "
The game will start at 1880.

Power Plants In County
Generate Sufficient Juice
Is Claim
BY ]. b. Whitehead

Secretary, Benton County Utility Dist.
The object of the State Grange and
the men backing these power districts
is to furnish an outlet for Bonneville
and Grand. Coulee power at cost to
the consumer However, there Is gen.
Grated at Priest Rapids and Prosser,
when both plants are operating, more
electric energy than is used IN Benton
county. These plants operate primarily
to supply energy for irrigation pump
ing, with 81, 45O,735 kilowatt hours 60
ing to the Pacific Power and Light
company in 1884 at a very low rate.
Many letters, petitions and resolu-
lions came to the commissioners asking
that some steps be taken to use this
cheap power in several of the COM
munities of the county If the COM
mission were to go ahead with any
plan it was necessary that we have
funds for printing, maps, engineers,
office and other expense. In June the
commissioners authorized the issuing
of up to $1,000 in warrants to be paid
with a tax levy for 1886 About $500
of these warrants have been issued.
A house to house canvass was made
in the North Prosser and North Ben
ton communities and there were found
one hundred fifty-two farms without
electric light and power, and so located
as to form a feasible Rural Electrified
ton project. r. E. ToWne, electrical
engineer of Tacoma, was employed TIC
draw up plans and specifications, and
on August 18th application was made
to the Rural Identification Admins
tration for a loan of $4,000 to builo
this line. This is a modern low-loss
three-phase line and is so designed tina,
it can take over the irrigation loae
and be extended to Che Kei1newicf
Highlands.
Application was made to the Works
Progress Administration for all the
common labor on the line, but were
informed that the WPA and the REA
could not work together on the same
Job, so on the advise of Mr.. Moran
we made a new application for digging
