Shopping
For Seeds
BY ISABEL FUCKER
Detroit Times Garden Editor

EVERYBODY WANTS 10 get
the most for money spent and
the gardener is no exception.
So today Wen talk about how
to spend the least to get the
most. Should be a welcome
subject
The first thing involved is
making up a careful list of all
plants. seeds a n d accessories
that will be needed during the
coming gardening season. Right
now is none too soon 10 do this
because there will be m any
shortages this year and the only
way TO be sure of getting things
is 10 order them before the
rush,
List Your Needs
Make out the list on a very
wide sheet of paper, putting
your needs one under the other,
and at the left side of the sheet.
Now to the right of the list
rule several columns the full
length of the list and perhaps
half an inch in width. At the
top of each of these columns
write the name of one of the
supply houses with which you
deal.
Now you're ready TO go shop
ping gust as truly b arg ain
hunting through the catalogS as
if you went to the store. Sup
pose you want Savoy Cabbage
seed. picked this kind on pur-
pose because il is usually i'm
possible TO get plants, so any one
wishing really extra special cab
bage, such as this is, would have
10 grow il from seed.
Compare Cetalo9s
Here are five catalogs, repre-
Senting some of the country's
largest firms, also several
smaller ones. l can buy packet
for 10 cents from one house or
for Is cents from n o { h r.
There is a 33et saving.
Had l wished to buy an ounce
of seed, the price would have
varied from 60 to Is cents.
Given firms of equal ealiber, it
is possible to save several dol
lars by shopping for seed.
OF course, l am assuming
that each variety of seed or
plant is 10 be compared with
the same variety in the other
catalogs.
Newer strains or diSease-re-
sistant varieties are quite natu-
rally worth more than those not
so described. There is no doubt
that C afefull comparisons of
catalog descriptions are a ncces-
sary adjunct to catalog shop
ping.

Pc Receipts
Tripled in Past
Four-Year Period
Transients greatly in
crease general delivery
service, about 10000

Small wonder most patrons need
a shoe horn to get into the local
postoffice, when the postmaster's
annual report is made public.
There has been about a $50 per-
cent increase in the number of
aatrons and the volume Of mail
handled in the past ten year, ac-
cording to F. II. Lincoln's latest
summary.
Postal receipts ten years ago
in the local office amounted to
S14,253, while the past year, added
up to $50,878, an increase Of $50
percent. In 1884 there were APP
proximately 1900 people receiv-
ing mail in this district. Four
years ago in 1910, there were just
under two thousand, while at the
present time there are over TO-
600 people using Kennewick as
their mail address. There are now
about as many people living in the
housing project, most Of whom
have a general delivery address
as the entire town had four short
years ago.

Theater Named
or Man Noted In
INV History
us. Senator champions
purchase of vast
Oregon territory

Mid-State Amusement has Sc
1ected the name Benton" for its
new theatre on Kennewick Ave
nue., which will have it's opening
in early February.
The lively neon sign which
adds so much color and light
to Kennewick's business center is
as exciting and colorful as the
man.. Senator Thomas H. Benton,
and his times. But for the con-
slant championing of all the ac-
tivities of that vast territory from
Missouri west to the Pacific
ocean, but for his oratory, and
friendship, the early pioneers
would have lost out in the Oregon
Territory. II
In review of the time of Sena-
tor Benton it was that colorful
chapter of a hundred years ago.
There had been explorations by
land and by sea the Hud-
sons Bay Company, Lewis and
Clark, the missionary pioneers,
Captain Bonneville, Jason Lees
colony Samuel Parker's travels,
the Whitman Mission and the
Whitman massacre, the Cayuse
War, and the California gold rush.
England and the United States
were having diplomatic discus
sions about the occupancy of the
Oregon Territory and the bound
airy disputes. There was that
loud angry temper of the people,
"54-40 or Fight" Senator Benton
sponsored the bill in Congress to
admit Oregon as territory. It
was through his efforts, that the
government sent the Senator's
son-in-law, John G.. Fremont out
west to survey the Oregon Trail.
The guide on the first trip was the
famous Kit Carson.
Public recognition of Benton's
efforts was acknowledged by the
men who re-established the county
boundary lines within the State
of Washington in March 1905.
Parts of Yakima and Klickitat
counties went to form what is
now our Benton county.
And so it is apt, in the progress
of community life, to still appre-
ciate and honor the. name "Ben-
tom" .-s.1-. ....... T.. f..
