It grows on rocky ridges and on place waere there is bo depth of toil, and it farciahes feed of tbe most palatable acd nourish ltg kind. In tbe Heppcer Hills at present there are great patches of fillaree 6 inches high, and although it is now at its best, it will fatten stock when quite dried upon the ground In California nllaree is knows as one of the best of grasses, and its coming to Eastern Oregon is a sure symptom of the permanency of the grest stoek industry here. The outside world can continue to rest assured that lire stock U still at home in tbe Heppner Hills, and that its value as an investment is on tbe increase. TILE OF THIIFT. The PacLSo Northwest is a great rsgion and a rich region, and its condition today tells a tale of thrift. The early pioneers have hewn down impenetrable forests and built a commonwealth that is at- tracting the earnest attention of the civilized world. Its founda tions are solidly built on ths roek of integrity and every timber of the superstructure has been sea soned by experience and tested by time. Slowly, couragsousiy, with thinning ranks, hare thee grizzled hosts of sterner days climbed the ragged mount of achievement and on its sun-kissed summit they are furling their banners and pitching their tents. This region stands in the grey dawn of a splendid new era, bot tomed on the inexorable experi ences of the past, canopied over by the getial sky of present thrift and facirjg a future that is all ablaze with hepe and permanent prosperity. A GOOD FLEECE. Morrow county sheepraisers are alive to the fact that the modern mutton sheep must also be a wool producer. Future wool supply muot come largely from sheep grown primarily for mutton. It is essential, then, that a mutton sheep Lave a good ileece as well as a good carcas. This combination is both practicable and profitable. It is no loczer regarded nece6eary to grow one beep for a fleece, anoth er for a carcass, and another for i lamb. The intelligent flock-mas ter combines them all in one class. Some of ths best mutton sheep are ttroducice a profitable neeces as those kept exclusively for wool and their lambs are decidedly sa perior. One of the first essentials in i good fleece is compactness or dens ity. This quality not only insures a better vield of wooL but it af fords a better protection against storms and indicates a hardier an imal, better able to withstaud ex posure. A close, even, dense fleece with no break s should cover all parts of the body, including the head and limbs and under parts. The tendency in improvement of the wool-producing qualities of the modern breeds has been toward carrying the fleece more complete ly over the bead, face, limbe ana lower line. The advantage is cot so much in the increased yield of wool grown on these parts, as that is of little) consequence, but ia the accompanying tendency to a larger and better yield of wool in all the parts. A barefaced and bareleg ged sheep is a relatively light shearer. MAYFLOWER MINES. Work i to t begon at once and push ed with vigor on the miue owned 1t tb Heppper liming Co. D. B.

While the ladies of the Christian church were serving a sapper in tbe opera house Saturday evening a serious fire ana panic were narrowly averted by the prompt action of George Conser. There were nearly 200 people in the ball, a large number of whom were seated at tbe supper tables, when sud denly a flame shot up from the oi! stove. It was so sudden that Mist Elise Bar tholomew, standing near, had her hair partly burned. The alarm was sent in and tbe fire company turned out, but it was not needed, for George Conser had succeeded in patting out the blaze with what coffee and dishwater there was in sight. The flame charred tbe wall abeut a yard wide nearly to tbe ceiling and tbe damage was nominal. No one was seriously injured, although Mr. Conser fell oo a broken cup and cut bis hand, and tbe ladies were badly frightened. wi i.i. n r. Fred K.

Going down Cason Canvon vesteidav evening H. F. Robinson's team took fright at a cottontail rabbit crossing the road and franticall plunged toward Rhea creek. Tbe brake was very weak, and did little toward stopping the team. Mr Robinson kept them in tbe road, while Mrs. R. coolly clung to the children. At the end of the canyon the frantic horses were brought to a standstill and shown that the cottontail was not going to eat them up. Very fortunately no upcoming teams were met, else there might hare been a bad pile-up. At IT BEEMf.

That the people of Morrow county are building op many new homes is evident from tbe fact that every day large loads of lumber pass through Heppner from the mountain mills 20 miles away. It is used all over Morrow county to build new houses and improve old ones, and the haul from the mills is a long one. Some day some enterprising home capitalists will bnild a little home rail way up Willow creek to the timber, and the fuel and lumber will be brought down quickly and cheaply, and the long wagon-haul will be abolished, flme industry will be patronized, atid many men will have profitable employment in Morrow county's timber, where they can do well, cutting cord wood and sell ing it on the spot at $1.25 a cord. aoq itiese peepie, as weii as many mid men, will buy their supplies in Heppner, and much money that now goes to the mills and wood -camps of the Cascade mountains will be kept at home in Morrow county. BEAUTIFUL BEAN WEED. Close around Heppner the early but tercups and birdbilis have run their race, and now the wild sunflower is shedding sunshine over the sward, and the beautiful, branching beanweed is beginning to bloom and beautify the landscape with its shades of light-blue and royal purple. It makes a flower garden of the Hepp ner Ililis, and the yellow-vested mead ewlarks sing from its branches, and iu name is lupine in tbe books. It is an ornament to the landscape, and if the conUnts of iu pods were a little larger it would furnish food for the army and navy on tbe days when they are treated to bean soup. THE UNIVERSAL ENTERTAINER. The graphophone, the most versatile of all devices for making the home at tractive, has made its war faster than all other music machines added togeth er, and has taken a permanent place in toe affections of all classes. And the reason lor this is not far te seek, for the graphophone sings, it p'ays the music of tbe band, orchestra and single instruments, it tells steries, gives recitations, teaches foreign languages, and is especially calculate! to drive dull car away. In the parlor, in ths nursery, in the sick room everywhere the whole house over tbe grapbepbon finds its p'aca, for tbe variety of things it does enables it to meet the require ment of every taste and adapt itself to ine mooas oi an. wnen it plays a march your spirits are stirred up by tbe martial strain, if it renders a song, tbe naturalness with which it is given brings smiles or tears, accordingly as the long is bnmorous or pathetic, and by nam berless means, it wins its way to the heart and when it is silent we feel as if a living, breathing member of the honse hold has ceased to speak. And, besides being an entertainer of the first magnitude, the graphopnoni is a tirelees educator. It teaches the children the newest aad brifc'htat music and in that way brings, not only them. bat their parents, up to date. The Columbia Phonograph Co., No. 125 Gsary street, San Francisco, head quarters for graphophoces and taking machine supplies of ersry kind, will send you catalogues on application. NEW FIRM. H. E.
