Growers Efforts
to Market Spuds
Culls to Be Dyed to Pre-
vent Marketing in
Competition

The Kennewick changer Of COM
merce went on record this noon as
endorsing the efforts being made
by the potato growers Of the dis
trict in keeping culls off the mar
ket. A special committee was ap-
pointed to confer with the growers
committee in the effort to work out
the problem.
Last week large percentage Of
growers signed up to have their
culls dyed so as to be kept of the
food markets, but during the past
week difficulties of one sort and an
other have arisen in securing the
cooperation of the selling agencies.
A meeting last night offered prom
ise of solution and 1t is thought
that from now on enough pressure
may be brought to bear by the grow
ers and others to enforce the dying
proposition.
The club agreed to lend every aid
possible to the farmers in the at
tempt to prevent flooding markets
with second grade spuds which
would come in competition with the
first grade.
It is believed that the marketing
agencies will cooperate with the
growers in their efforts to improve
the potato markets.

Remembers Old Friends

The A. A. Anderson family, from
McMinnville were in Kennewick
Monday for short time. They
were on their way to Sunnyside
to attend the funeral Tuesday OF
Mrs. Anderson's mother, Mrs. Wal
ter Price OF Outlook. Mr.. Anderson
had a recent occasion to visit Gov
ernor Sprague Of Oregon. to whom
he stated that he had been In BUSH
ness in Kennewick. The governor
asked Anderson IL he was acquaint-
ed with Reed and Gardner, the
newspaper publishers. This struck
Anderson as rather peculiar, but II
wasn't, for the now governor OF
Oregon used to publish the weekly
paper at Ritzville and the acquain-
tance dates from that time. After
leaving Ritzville Sprague purchas-
ed daily paper at Salem, from
which place he was elevated to the
goyernorship.

County Crop Payments
Total More than %, 1903

Payments for participation in the

gram are being received regularly
at the county extension office. A
total OF s2S,8o3.68 has been receiv-
ed to date. with considerable more
still to come in, according TO County
Agent Skuse.
The 1889 program is more favor
able for farmers on irrigated land
and this means that the participa-
ton is considerably larger, SO that
the payments for 1899 should also
be considerably larger than were
those of 1898.

when a group Of leather-lunged.
bie-museled and hairy chested cave
men amused themselves by setting
up a flock of rocks and knocking
them down with boulders. The sys-
TEN of scoring is not known. but
it must have been a lot Of fun be-
cause out Of those ancient gather
ings OF trundelers came one Of the
greatest Of all winter games.
This great sport Is now being
played among a greater number
Of Race members today than ever
before. Here in our own motor
city we are fortunate to boast some
Of the best bowlers in the country
We arrived at this statement only
after travelling from state to state
with these teams and seeing them
defeat some Of the strongest bowling
outfits in the country.
Speaking Of strong teams, II one
cares TO look at the race for the
top place among the four outstand-
ing aggregations in the Motor City
Bowling league. Maston Laundry
in first place, Porter's Cleaners Boys,
Porter's Girls and Adams Palms,
who by the way. beat the strong
Porter's Boys two out Of three games
Saturday night which dropped Por-
tiers in second place. But the Por-
tiers team who have led the league
for some time set a record in the
third and last game. They bowled
982 the lowest score for an jndi-
vidual was 1876. Although P3rters
spotted Adams Palms SO pins each
game, they won the total number Of
pins for the three games. Porters,
1859 for three games, and Adams
Palms, 2636.
