Delay Action
To Regulate
Photographers

Taking under advisement a
proposal by Kennewick photo
graphers to regulate itinerant
photographers, the Kennewick
council Tuesday night postponed
any action until the measure
could be made all-inclusive.
Spokesman for the photograph
ers, D. K. Randall, told the coun-
Gil that some measure was me-
cessary to control the people who
come into town and show poor
work. He cited a Denver ordi-
nance which defines transients
and sets a SIS per day fee on
each person connected with such
business.
Joe English, owner of the Jul
venile shop, who has had busl-
ness dealings with a California
company, said that competition
was feared, and pointed out that
these itinerant photographers are
dependent on volume.
In view of the recent cry
against itinerant merchants OF
all types, the council felt the
Denver ordinance could serve as
basis for a local ordinance
which would regulate these mer-
chants, '

Kadlec hospital attendants de-
scribed the condition of William
w. Mollett, az, and Clarence
Christensen, 81, as Serious"
Wednesday. Both Island View
men were hospitalized yesterday
following an accident involving
jeep and a motorcycle. The
accident occurred on highway
40 near Mack's Agate Shop at
12:45 pm. Tuesday. =
State highway patrolmen said
that the cycle was travelling at a
speed unsafe for the road con-
ditions when it hit the jeep be-
ING driven by Maurene L. Starr
of the Northside Trailer Court,
PaSco.
The Starr jeep had stopped in
the left hand lane to make a

Fair Space
Sold Out

Space for the commercial
booths at the big Benton County
fair is all gone, according to Ted
Clifford who has been in charge
of this. phase of the event.
With booth sizes varying from
five feet of frontage to 80 feet,
Is merchants, mainly from Ken
newick, have combined to make
this years commercial row the
biggest ever. "
Exhibits from the merchants
will be housed in one building
and along both sides of the build
ing. Allowable space was 100
feet on either side of the build
ing. The fact that more could
have been used was proven when
several Of the later applicants
had to be turned down.
One of the outstanding exhib-
its, if space can be arranged for
it, will be that coming from the
state penitentiary at Walla Wal
la. As it is, the request for a
booth came in late and Clifford
is trying to accommodate them.
The men who are serving time
make hand fooled leather articles
as well as other useful articles.
Exhibitors have been furnish
ed water and electricity accord.
ing to their individual needs.
To better acquaint the public
with the products they are SELL
ing, some of the leading bust
nessmen of Kennewick as we'll
as one from Finley and one from
Tacoma have promised outstand-
ing displays. For the housewife
or businessman who hasn't had
time to become thoroughly ac-
quainted with these merchants,
this is an excellent opportunity.
The following stores will have
booths: Washington Hardware,
Bailey's Plumbing, Durocher's
Furniture, Electrolux Vacuum
Cleaners, Kenny's Music Center,
Bunch Finnigan Hardware, Lii
Dale Sewing Center, Baker and
Son Florist from Finley, House of

Every possible step will be
taken to protect persons who
will be affected by the McNary
dam back-wash, Col. William
Whipple. Walla Walla district
army engineer, told approx
mately 700 people Tuesday as
the first information concerning
proposed bikes was made public.
Speaking at a public meeting,
which was held in the Kenne-
wick high school auditorium,
Whipple said the value and pc.
tentiality of affected lands was
considered before the plans We're
drawn. That land which is found
to be too expensive to protect by
bikes will be acquired by the
government.
In general, all the land to the
river side of the irrigation canal
will be acquired. The highway
will be moved to the south side
of the canal.
After Whipple finished, he in
troduced ]. F. Bruce, reports CO.
ordinator, who told the attenta-
tive audience about the bikes
and pumping stations that would
be built. He assured them that
those living in the protected Sec
tions would have the benefit of
the most modern bikes that can
be constructed.
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1939-1949, 1949-08-19

| Merle LietZke, Chief of the
Real Estate division, took the
floor next to explain the method
in which the engineers would
acquire the land.
1--WE intend, wherever possible,
to acquire the land by direct
contact with the individual land
owner. Payments will be made
after the appraisals have been
approved by higher authority"
he said.
Speaking of those men who
would appraise the property,
Lietzke said they will be chosen
by the engineers on their past
records and their proven ability.
He promised that they would be
fair and impartial.
To determine the value of
small businesses and private
homes, the potential sale value
of the property is considered.
That is, the price is based on
what the property would bring if
there was a, willing seller, not
forced to sell, and a willing buy
er, not forced to buy.
/ When the land is acquired by
direct negotiation with the own.
er, the owner is able to take all
improvements from the land.
However, once a federal court
has taken jurisdiction in a con-
domination suit, the improve.
ments stay with the land. Then
they may be sold later by the
government on a sealed bid.
The group was scheduled to
speak Tuesday afternoon at Pas
co and to discuss those ques-
lions which affect the Pasco side
of the river.
Accompanying Whipple, besid-
es Lietzke and Bruce, were v. r.
Butler, head of the soils section,
H. L. Drake, McNary Levee Co.
ordinator, H. o. Egeberg, head of
the Definite Projects Reports
section, Ray Garrett, resident
engineer at Richland, George
Schoch, resident engineer hand
ling utilities relocation and Max
Tysor, aide to Lietzke.

puIIets Soon Will Be
PUT in Laying Houses

The agent reported August also
finds poultrymen who plan an
allwinter litter program starting
that job.
GOOD TIME TO START
He recommends it as a good
month to start, but if the flock
has suffered from an outbreak
of chronic coccidiosis regular
cleaning of the laying house
may be done during August SO
that the disease is brought under
control before greater need for
the laying house develops.
He said poultrymen will be
watching to see that their pull
lets do not come into about 40
or so percent ley and then start
slump in production. If the
birds should act this way he ad-
vises the poultryman to get a
few birds to the poultry diagnos-
tic laboratories, either at Puy-
allup, Prosser, or Pullman, to
determine whether or not laying
house or chronic coccidiosis is
present. /.
If the diagnosis is positive it
then may be necessary to clean
the house regularly for at least
two weeks by using a light coat
ing of litter on the floor and
cleaning every other day.
Webster reported that poultry.
men interested in litter manage
ment can obtain the information
from Poultry Pointers No. 20,
Feeding and Management of
Layers" which is available at
his office. II

Benton county poultrymen will
soon begin putting their early
Matched pullets into the laying
houses if they have not already
started, County Extension Agent
Frank Webster reported. Pullets
are usually ready to lay anytime
after they reach AZ months OF
age. 4, .-~..= ~ .s 4
He said getting pullets into
the house means many jobs are
underway or soon will be under
way wherever. chickens are rails
ed in the county. Any old chick
ems on the farm must either be
disposed of or g, rearranged so
that there are empty pens for the
pullets. The empty pens must
be cleaned up and repaired and
made ready for a winters use.
For this work the agent sug-
gested the farmer who has never
tried a pressure Sprayer i for
cleaning his poultry house may
want to give it a try this year. A
sprayer that will give at least
300 pounds of pressure does an
excellent job of cleaning the
house, but one or two hours
pre- soaking of the house by just
placing the garden sprinkler in
the building will do a lot to
moisten the accumulations on
the roosting racks and feed hop
pers.
He said that if coal tar or
anthracine oil disinfectants are
used the laying house should be
given at least two weeks to dry
before placing the birds in the
house. Otherwise the disinfect-
ants may burn the birds feet.
