TN NO
SANTA CLAUS"

To-day I installed a telephone
for an old lady who lives by her
self. She's been pretty lonely, she
said, since both her children
moved out of town. Now that
she has a telephone, they can call
her up any time = and she can
call them. She feels safe with a
telephone in her home and it
must be a comfort to her chill
dren to know she can get help
quickly if she needs it.
Another job was an extension
telephone that willenable eayoung
mother to answer calls without
leaving her baby alone and with
out running up and down stairs.
I'm no Santa Claus-but I made
a lot of people happy today just
by installing telephones"
An extra telephone for your
home-upstairs or in the kit
chen-costs less than three
cents a day. The service con-
nection charge is only $500.
To order an extension tele-
phone, just call the Business
Office-or ask any telephone
employees.

Local Berry Crop
to Be Heaviest
i'm Recent Years

q Harvesting OF Rennewick'S most
colorful and famous crop, straw
berries, was formally opened yes
terday when the first crate OF the
season was shipped through one OF
the local agencies. And, as not in
frequently, the honor of the first
shipment came TO a grower in the
Richland district.
The berry crop this year will be
the best and largest that has been
produced I'm the valley in many
years. The vines came through the
winter season with no injury and
the cool weather has produced the
biggest bloom and set OF fruit seen
sere since the good old days" when
strawberries was the principal crop.
Acreage has been increased in the
past few years and the tonnage win
be the heaviest many growers have
ever seen.
Other crops, with the exception OF
early spuds, do not have such an
optimistic outlook. Cherries will be
light this year, the heavy produc-
ton of last year, together with win
ter injury and lack Of pollination
will reduce the crop to about one
fourth OF normal. Apples, peaches.
cots and prunes have all suffered
from one cause or another and all
tree fruits will be light in this sec
ton.
The spud paintings will exceed
those of recent years and the early
stuff particularly is looking unus-
ually fine at this time Of the year.
II the price holds growers will again
make q killing on spuds this year.
Spring wheat is also one Of the
bright spots in this section. Plenty
OF moisture and the cool weather
has been ideal for the hill ranchers
and they are anticipating an abnor-
NAL production this season, with
good price outlook.
