"We feel," says Mr. Sieg. "that the Kennewick and Richland growers will be well taken care of and the sales will be handled on a basis that will work for the interest of all berry shipping districts. The Spokane agency handles a great deal of strawberries for its locally affiliated growers, whose crops come on the market later than the Kennewick product. And the Spokane sellers, perforce, will do nothing in handling the sales of the earlier dist rict that will mitigate against the market for their own later crop." Because of the warm weather and rains of the past week, it is now pre dicted that the local crop, the buds of which are already swelling, will be a week or two earlier than on former aeasons.

Donat gave a talk on nature which will rank him as one of the best speakers of the year at the high school. He also made the announcement that he would leave Hood River shortly.

Some of them got away with it in a most credible manner, but the best of them at times forgot the part they were supposed to be acting and after a dance would appropriate the first available seat and leave their partners to shift for themselves. The evening was spent in dancing and play ing cards, ihe music was furnished by Arena' orchestra. Some of the older brothers present who have not danced since they were young or who never had danced at all have taken on new life and have arranged for a dancing instructor and a musician and intend to get into the game again.
