KenneWick Stores
Sell Best Apples,
Report Says

To Kennewick merchants and
fruit dealers must go the distinction
Of being tops in their offerings and
displays OF apples, according TO re-
ports compiled at the office OF I'm
inn Fruit Producers, Inc, Gull con-
troll organization. ,a..
Reports OF inspectors working on
state markets at the behest Of the
Gull organization and under author
ity from the state horticultural de-
partment brings out the fact that
apples offered for sale In that city
were in the best condition and also
were being properly marked. In
fact it is the only point in the en-
tire list covered by the inspectors
where satisfactory conditions exist.
Merchants generally are not CO.
operating in the matter Of the prop
er marking of apples offered" said
e. M. Berg, manager OF the control
group. "It is apparent they are not
concerned with the seriousness OF
the new law and In order to bring 1t
to their attention forcibly our in
spectors have been instructed to
bring action where cooperation is
not forthcoming. The law is plain
in its Interpretation and no dealer
once notified will be given further
opportunity to delay in complying
with It."
Strange as it may seem, the
reports show that among the worst
offenders both in failure to proper
ly mark and in the matter OF In
ferior fruit are merchants and fruit
dealers in wenatchee and Yakima.
Fruit which has no place other than
for processing purposes is being Of
fered and displayed at these two
points almost to the exclusion Of
good apples. It seems ridiculous for
merchants to offer such Junk" when
only the choicest should suffice. In
many cases this inferior fruit is
being sold at prices which would
justify the purchaser getting quail
ity apples"
The reports Of the inspectors in
dictate marked decrease In culls Of
fered in coast markets. This is not
true In the Spokane and Walla
walla districts where real cam
paign is now being waged by these
men In cleaning up the offerings OF
infested and infected fruit, partic-
ularly in the Walla Walla district,
where much scale is being found

Cooking School

Upwards of thousand women at
tended the three-day session of the
Courier-Reportsr's pictorial cooking
school the first part of the week.

one of the best publicity stunts ever
pulled off in this community. Clev-
erly mixed in with an interesting
story came the demonstrations Of
the newest wrinkles in the culinary
art. #a
The moving picture method Of
demonstration is great advance
ment over the old style cooking
school where the actual cooking is
done before an audience. With the
picture method every patron in the
theatre can look right down into
the mixing bowls as though it were
on the table. Immediately before her.
Then there are no annoying waits
while dishes are cleaned or meas
ures filled or any Of the usual de-
lays.
Recipe books were handed out to
the ladies as they registered. The
leaflets contained all the recipes as
they were demonstrated on the
screen. Several ladies reported hav-
ing tried them and invariably they
were more than pleased with re-
suits obtained.
The story in the picture concern
ed q young couple starting on their
honeymoon. She couldn't cook and
as q result trouble was a-brewing
upon their return. The bright young
show their favorite dishes and the
bride, however, got her friends to
ensuing recipes and completed
dishes making the demonstrations
