Hi P1M TIME Always working for the best Interests of Maupin and all of Southern Wasco County. Publishes only that news fit to print Caters to no particular class, but works for aDL VOLUME XVI MAUPIN, OUEGON. THURSDAY, JULY 3J, 1930 Number 38 MAD Maupin Times Ceases as Local Newspaper Today After 1ft Year' Publication Maupin Tim., Will go to Morgue Tho ' WHh thl isauo of The Maupin Timet the paper will cease to exist ' m local publication. The publish er hive concluded arrangements whereby the plant will move to Kainer and there bo used in publish ins; a new paper, to bo called The Columbia Rivfr Pilot. We expect to be able to movo next week. Since coming here the publishers have tried hard to give Maupin a real newspaper. We Jiave fought advenity of many furln, have uc ceeded in building up a rcapectablo ubscription list and a fair adver tiling clientele. It taken tho latter to keep up a newspaper. Tho l cal business men, with a few ex ceptiom, teem to harbor the idea that advertising only Adds to over head expenses, therefore have been lukewarm in using The Tunc col umni to tell patrons what they had to sell. Some of them have adver tised spasmodically, while a few have been faithful in their patronage. Among the latter we mention the Maupin State Dank, 0. P. Itcsh 4 Co., Tum-A-Lurn Lumber company, Maupin Drug Store. Thoe four busi ness places have stayed with us week in and week out While it is true we have enjoyed a liberal advertising patronage from Dalles merchant)!, atill the fact remains that without that patronage wq would have to had to shut down the paper and leave town. . , A great many of our subscribers seem to think a newxpaper man does not need money. We have rcpeatly sent subscription statements to such delinquents but without result. F.ah of those subscribers are abundantly able to pay up. It seems to us that rtlessnesa, not to say something ranger, impella them to put us off it long as they can and then dis cln'm responsibility for the paper rr.ming to them.

The United States' visible supply increased nine and a half million bushels and the trade is skeptical aboi I better prices, in view of larger stocks. , A perspective shows European stocks smaller than a year ago, g'wlth conditions tnfavornblo to a yield approximately last year's, and harvest delayed. Canadian Nwhcat provinces are still experiencing de terioration, 'though a better crop than last year is in prospect. Ar gentina will not be the export fac tor of last year, but Australia ex pects a generous surplus for export from Increased acreage. Russia is an unknown quantity and reports of large sales usually dwindle to actual cargoes. France is reported "as favoring larger imports of wheat than allowed under the drastic re strictions now prevailing, and as a whole there is less of the satisfied hand-to-mouth attitude shown by foreign buyers. A fair volume of new busifiss was worked from Tortlnnd, moVy on favorable space offerings, to taling about eight thousand long tons of white wheat for United Kingdom and Continental ports and about two thousand short tons to Japan. ?

CHRISTIAN UNIJY W03KS FOR ALL BETTPMr.NT '., i ' SchUm in Church Circle are AI way Detrimental Harmomy is essential for the sue- pess of a community.
