Grape irrigation
Test 10 Be Held

A demonstration to test the
effect of overhead sprinkler irri-
cation on grapes has been started
on the Rolla Lanning farm near
Hedges. The test plot covers ap-
proximately one quarter acre or
an area 200 feet long and 81 feet
wide.
The demonstration has been ar
ranged through the East Benton
Soil Conservation District. The
Poison Implement Company OF
Seattle and Bi-County Equipment
Company of Pasco have furnished
the sprinkler system, pump and
motor. The Pacific Power and
Light furnished the poles, wire
and a meter to determine the
electricity used. The Soil Con-
servation Service, Extension Serv-
ice and Church Grape Juice Co.,
are making observation and COL
lecting data. Plans have been
made to continue the demonstra-
ton through the 1947 season.
sIn formation is needed on
sprinkler irrigation of grapes. If
this method is feasible, more Slop-
ing land could be planted to
grapes and irrigated safely, ac-
cording to Otto Schnsellhardt,
work unit conservationist." One
of. the points needing investiga-
ton is the effect sprinkling may
have on the fruit. The first irri-
cation which was made on July
IS apparently did not injure the
fruit. The next irrigation will be
held Friday morning, August 2,
beginning at 500 am. Anyone
interested is invited to attend.
A recent Extension Bulletin No.
1886 Sprinkler Irrigation" is now
available from the County Agent.

NEEDS GOVERNMENTAL ASSISTANCE

While everybody has been entranced
with the progressive development of avl-
alton, it is well to heed the warning of E.
A. Cutrel1, of the American Airlines, that
those who believe that we are about to
plunge into yaa airsags FFhere airliners will
land automatically By radio, radar or cleo
tronics, are wishfully thinking"
Engineers, responsible for the develop
ment of aviation and automobiles, call at
tention to the lack of airpOrts and equip
ment NEEDED for all-weather flying. They
emphasize the need for better runWays
and approach lights and assert that, des-
pite 4mile-an-hOur PLANES, the chief
competition of aircraft with land transpor
tation will be within the trip-radius of 200
miles.
We call attention to the evident fact
that the development of aircraft service
depends, in large measure, upon the con-
trbution that the Federal and State gov
ernments are willing to make in providing
service facilities. ust as the building of
good roads created a tremendous demand
for automobiles, the construction of ade-
quate airpOrts will make possible the ex-
pansion Ofaviation.
The record in both industries shows
mat private initiative can accomplish a
good deal, but that it takes governmental
assistance to make possible spectacular
achievements.

TAXPAYERS MONEY

Woodrow Wilson, among other great
men, have spoken about the taxpayers
money as public trust and, basing ones
conclusion on that truth, one would think
that the last place anybody should go for
a handout is to the federal, state, county,
or city government to ask for so-called
donation.
Naturally, the question arises, why
should public officials in Washington and
all subdivisions of government give away
money that has beenpaid in taxes?
Use of such money should be confin-
ed to defraying the expenses of govern
ment, and, goodness knows, there is a
multiplicity of expenses to defray.
The Citizen recently referred to the
apparent spirit of braggadocia in ITALIA
hassee over the states balance of $780,
100000, which probably represented L.
00O,00O,O000 drops of taxpayers sweat.
Taxpayers in Key West, as we'll as in
every other city in the United States, are
more heavily taxed than ever before in the
history of the city, and every cent of the
hundreds of thousands of dollars they
pay in one way or the other, to the city,
the county, the state, the federal govern
ment, should be devoted to paying the ex-
penses in conducting governmental affairs.
Because the money is collected in
larger quantities now than ever before in
the history of Key West and Monroe coun-
ty, is no reason why it should be wasted.
Fact is, it should be spent circumspectly in
the hope that when next year rolls around
thesheavily burdened taxpayer may be Civ
en- some relief from the demands now
made on his purse.
Public officials should keep that
thought in mind when they are asked to
give money to this or that fund or to help
to finance this or that movement.

HOMECOMING VETERANS

Eager hearts of returning servicemen
are sailing across the great oceans. They
look at the endless rolling pillows. and
think with joy that each days run brings
them nearer home. AS their vessels ap-
proach our shores, they strain their eyes,
hoping for the first glimpse of the dim
coastline through the misty air.
1t is with a thrill of happiness that
they land on the dock of some American
city, and tread again the fortunate soil of
America. There is a rush for the telephone
to talk with the home folks. The familiar
voices make very sweet sound.
The happiness felt by these men and
their loved ones when they meet goes be-
yond description. 1t is like gorgeous feast
for the home folks to see the beloved face
again. One can only hope that life in our
country will measure up to the expecta-
tons of the returning men, and that they
will not be disappointed when they return
to the experiences and struggles of civilian
life.
Even if the home burg is simple sort
of place, it will seem a good deal like
heaven to one who has been through the
desolations of Europe and the coarse life
of primitive Pacific people He will bless
God for America. Even plain and homely
scenes will seem full of happiness and OPP
poEtunity.

"1f Gallant Lady feels like hav-
ing visitors later, let me know"
She watched her father striding
out of the room, realizing that
tonight for the first time in many
weeks, he was like the man she
first met. Oh, if he could only be
like this always, what a different
place Roselands might be!
The hours dragged on. The
second vet came and joined the
vigil around Gallant Lady.
Its getting late" Edith
thought. "Whit's forgotten me.
Maybe. I'd better go back to the
house." But she stayed on. She
thought the cries of the little
mare were growing weaker-per-
haps, though, she was only SUI
fering less. Finally the cries
ceased altogether. An ominous
stiffness settled over the stables.
When Edith could bear the I'M
certainty no longer, she started to
find Whit. She met him just out
side the door. He looked tired
and unhappy.
Gallant Lady" she began.
"She just-couldn't make it,"
Whit said grimly, his mouth a
tight line. Edith knew that Gal
liant Lady had been a great favor
tie with him.
ooh, I'm SO terribly sorry!"
After a moment, he said, eve
saved the colt, though. Want to
see the little felloW?"
In the stall a checkered blanket
had been thrown carefully over
the mare and in a corner a
spindly-legged colt wavered un-
I}certainly. HE may not look like
much now" Whit said, keeping
his eyes carefully away from the
blanket, "but he'll be a champion.

swered, her. eyes suddenly mist
ing. she rubbed the little wet
nose with, diffident finger.
She and Whit walked silently
back to the house a few mo-
ments later. She knew he was too
preoccupied to talk now and in
the days that followed she often
wondered what they might have
said to each other that night.
Would they, perhaps, have
reached a better understanding?

\ the rift between herself and

had been troubled and uneasy be-
cause of some of the things Whit
had said that night. That in spite

The knowledge of her love for
Burk Angus did not bring much
satisfaction, either, since it seemed.
almost certain never to come to
fruition. She had not, seen him
again, even in church.
She had a long letter from
Chris, the first he had written
since his marriage to Laura. It
was full of news and nonsense
and lifted from her heart any
doubt of her feeling about him.
Chris was dear, but he was some
one she had known in another
Wcr1d-a world which had not
known Burl1 Angus - and she
could look on him now with no
fear of difficulty in their relation
ship. She came tc see, too, that
the part of Laura that belonged to
her could never belong to Chris
o. anyone else. She could go back
now at any time knowing that she
and her mother could be as init
mate, as understanding, as close
as they had been before Chris had
come between them. Sometimes
the longing to see Laura, to tell
her all the troubles that worried
her, to hear her calm, poised voice
giving invaluable counsel was al
n-ost more than she could bear.
But she stayed on-knoWing that
she was a real help and comfort

LEARNING NEW THINGS

One factor which tends to produce
success in life is a willingness and ability
to try out new things. It was a large factor
in our victory in World War II. For most
Of our servicemen, the duties and expert
ences of war were wholly new thing
Plenty of awkwardness and blunders
could be expected.
But the men took up these activities
without reluctance. They did their best to
learn. They took in the new ideas fast
That gave them an advantage over
enemies who had not been trained to do
original thinking.
In civilian life many persons are
fearful of untried ways of working. They
may say they have never done things that
way and they can't do them. But the world
values those who are quick and eager to
take advantage of modern progress.
The American people have a record
of venturing into the untried and I'M
known with confidence that they can solve
its problems.

at home, they all gathered on the
big front veranda as twilight
began to fall Barbara, contented
and happy with Whit at home,

eyes over a bit of dainty sewing

without question and following

that Clay Elliott had taken the
horses that were in training to
Chicago for the summer racing,
and that Lawson, a young man
left in charge at home, was some
times over-zealous in his care of
the ones in his keeping. She had
heard Whit say that he might as
well take care of the horses him
self, since Lawson was continually
at him to come to the stables, on
first one excuse and then another.

that the young man was really

Spiritual Food
W.J.R. WRITES IN DETAIL
ABOUT SPIRITUAL FOODS
By J. w, r.

A very neatly-Written, detailed
article on Spiritual Foods was re-
ceived last week from w. J. R., a
contributing reader of this col
umn. The article is so compre-
hensive and explanatory the most
casual reader of the Bible will be
able, through digesting this sim
pie presentation of Scriptural
facts, fully understand just what
are Spiritual Foods.
There are many references in
the Bible about spiritual nourish-
ment 1t would be impossible to
include all these passages in a
single issue Of this column. There
fore, w. J. RS present and future
articles on Spiritual Foods will be
divided into as many parts as
ii may become necessary to do so
in order to publish the whole.
Our readers submitted article
begins with milk, the food for
babes, natural or spiritual The
next is bread, which requires a
more lengthy description as there
are numerous passages concern
ing this particular food in both
the Old and New Testaments.
w. j. RS future article on this
subject will no doubt contain the
more substantial foods mentioned
for those strong in the Word"
Now here's the first part of our
readers article dealing with Milk
and Bread:
Milk
I'm Job 1912, we read, I have
esteemed the words of His mouth
more than my necessary food. In
other words, Job is telling US that
Spiritual Food is more necessary
than bodily food By referring
to l Peter % we learn that Gods
Word, the Bible, supplies milk for
our spiritual growth.
'AS in the natural realm, the
newborn babe finds its first nour-
ishment in milk, the most per-
fectly balanced food, and receiv-
ing this milk from its mother,
Though whom it was born into
the world, so the newborn babe
in Christ will find its nourish-
ment for its spiritual life by par
taking of the sincere milk of the
Word, the perfectly balanced
food, and is thus fed by the same
source through which it was born
into Gods family, Being born
again, not of corruptible seed, but
OF incorruptible, BY THE WORD
OF GOD, which liveth and abid-
eth for ever q Peter 1929
1.-THE consequence of eating
good wholesome food is growth
and development of the body. On
the other hand, is there anything
that brings more sorrow to the
mothers heart than to perceive
that her darling is growing nei-
ther physically or mentally? Can
we not learn a lesson from this?
Does it not grieve our Heavenly
Fathers heart when His babes
in Christ do not show spiritual
development, but seem to be re-
tarded and in danger of not
growing in the grace, and in the
knowledge of our Lord and Sa-
viour, Jesus Christ? CT Peter
3:I8)"
