Bill for New Ceiling
For Senate Alone
Planned by Andrews
Move to Draft Measure
Follows Rejection Of
Reports in Both Wings

Although both branches of Con-
eress have voted to abandon plans
to put new ceilings on the House
and Senate chambers at this time,
Senator Andrews. Democrat, of
Florida announced today he will
draft Immediately new bill to have
the work done for the Senate alone.
The Senate two weeks ago ap-
proved the inclusion Of approx
mately 1891 800 in the legislative
appropriation bill TO replace the
skylightS over both chambers with
ornamental solid ceilings, as a war
safety measure and to improve ar
tificial lighting and acoustics.
Senate Concurs In Rejection.
The House, however, rejected the
plan in conference, and the Senate
yesterday accepted that decision in
sending the legislative bill to the
President, despite last-minute plea
by Senator Andrews.
The Florida Senator said he
would confine his new effort to
the Senate in view of the House
disapproval of the project this
week. Senator Andrews contended
the remodelling would make avail
able as scrap metal for war purposes
ITO tons of old cast-iron and
wrought-iron in the original Senate
roof, and rs tons Of new steel
girders, put in two years ago as a
temporary support to the old roof.
Senator Andrews said that while
he was inquiring into the need for
the improvements, experts ad-

l pound bomb fell within q few
blocks Of the Capitol, 1t would
shatter the skylghts and glass
ceilings that now inclose the House
and Senate chambers. He predicted
the Axis powers may attempt q
token air raid on Washington.
Congress decided two years ago
to replace the roof on the Capitol
whenever there Is q long adjourn
ment, but the war necessitated post
ponement Of the work, and the
temporary steel supports were in
stalled. Senator Andrews said that
after this month Congress probably
will begin series of three-day
recesses during the sWnmer, in
which case the Senate ceiling could
be replaced.

Directors of the Benton County

met in Sunnyside January 18th with
members of the Boards Of Directors
of two lower Yakima County Asso-
Citations and representatives of the

they discussed Association opera
tions and plans for annual member

The Stockholders of the Benton

5th to review the years business of
the Association and to elect direct
ors. Paul Hamilton, Prosser, was

himself for three years and H. N.

term of 2 years to fill out the I'M

Registration Places
Listed for Third
Call for Service
Men 20 to A to be
registered MondayF
give home addresses

Plans for the third registration of
! men for armed forces are all pre-
pared and ready to he put into oper-
alton on February 16, when all men
who have attained their twentieth
birthday on or before Dec 81, 1871,
and who have not yet attained their
forty-fifth birthday on February,
16, 1912, will be required to register,
if they have not already done so in
the first two registrations held.
The various places of registration
in Benton county are as follows:
Prosser, the Armory; Kennewick,
city hall; Finley, Finley school;
White Bluffs, p. p & L. office;
Richland, Richland school: Benton
City, Community hall; Paterson,
Paterson store; Plymouth, j. M.
Doyle residence.
It is requested by the Benton
County Local Board that registrants
pay particular attention to the state
ments of where their permanent adj
dress is and what their mailing ad-
dress is at the present time. The per-
manent address should he that of
the place the registrant considers
his home, and not necessarily where
he happens to be working at the
time. If some registrant from Utah
is working in Hanford for instance,
he should give his home address as
Utah rather than Hanford, and his
mailing address would be Hanford.
Similar answers should be given by
those residents of Benton county,
who at the present time are working
in Seattle or other coast cities. I'm
less they have actually moved their
families and established coast
town as their former residence, they
should name their local town in
Benton County as their home adj
dress and give Seattle or other city
as their mailing address. Registrant's
are not required to report to their
home board for examinations, etc.
ALI of this is taken care of through
the local board office by means of
transfers.
Another request coming from the
local office, is that when giving the
name of someone who will always
know the registrant's address, that
the registrant gives some name 9TH
err than that of his wife, If possible.
The reason for this is that if reg
istrant moves, he generally moves
his wife with him and If. they neither
one notify the board Of their depart
ure, the board has no means OF
checking up on the registrant's
whereabouts when he is wanted by
the local board. It would be greatly
appreciated if the registrant would
give the name of a parent, sister,
or other relative, or the name OF
friend or even an employer who
would know where the registrant is
at all times. Most delinquent cases
reported to the FsBI for investiga-
ton are those resulting from the
neglect On the part of the regis
trant to give his change of address
to his local board.

Date Three Schools
For Farmers i'm
Coming Week
Swine school Friday,
farm records Friday,
dairying Tuesday

AS previously announced the
school on swine production will be
held in the Commercial club rooms
in Prosser Thursday, February IL,
starting at $50 am. and extending
throughout the day. Farmers and
specialists will discuss the best and
cheapest way to raise hogs, accord
ing to Waldo w. Skuse, county
agent. walter Tolman, extension
livestock specialist, Wade Wells,
manager Of the grange livestock
yards in Spokane, and DR.. G.. e.
Abrams, federal veterinarian on an
imals diseases, all will assist with
the meeting. There will be several
reels of new moving pictures and a
model of the electric pig brooder will
be on display. "A large attendance is
expected, with these days of profit
able hog production.
On Friday, February, 18th, the
meetings on farm record books and
income tax returns with Arthur j.
eagle, assistant extension economist,
will be well attended as they were
last year. These meetings will be
coming closer home to more people
in that due to the changing of the
law more people will have to make
these returns. The meetings will be
at the Commercial Club rooms in
Prosser at 900 am. and at the Con-
servation Assembly room over Pen
ney's store in Kennewick at 4 80 pm.
On Tuesday, February 18th at the
Commercial club rooms in Prosser,
beginning at $50 am. will be the
school on dairying with DR.. Otto j.
Hill, extension dairyman as the
principal speaker. Since dairymen
are now faced with many problems
in meeting production goals for 1912
this school is being held to discuss
methods of attaining these goals.
This means more income per COW.
Special subject to be given consider
alton in the discussion will he: How
can production levels of cows be in
creased without greatly increasing
the cost of purchased feeds? Dairy
men must consider the health of
their herds if they are going to in
crease production per cow. How the
dairymen can improve the kind of
COWS that they will be milking three
or four years from now. All dairy
men from surrounding territory are
urged to lay aside their other work
for this day and attend this meet
ing for their own profit.
