SiLOCUI & BUCEINIM, PROPRIETORS. 303 EGGS IN WEAR Portland. Ore. Nov. 25. (Special) A short time ago the Oregon Agri cultural College announced the faot that a cross-bred hen had turned out 291 eggs iu her first twelve months of THANKSGIVING SERVICE TO BE AT 10:30 TO-DAY The union Thanksgiving ser vices for Heppner will be held to-day at 10:30 at the M.

Crawford will deliver Bag maohine had ever before reached the sermon and a good choir render appropriate music. that rate of speed. Now, the college announces, the original best-lien-in- the-world will have to take a back seat, as another biddy at the same institution lias succeeded in laving 303 eces in exactly one year. This new ben, like the former record breaker, is a cross between Barred Rocks and White Leghorns. Professor Dryden. in charge of the poultry department at the college, says that no special attempt, outside of the breeding, was made to secure high records. The methods followed in feeding and general care were suoh as might be profitably follnwei bv any farmer or owner of poultry. The 303 esgs produced by the record breaking hen weighed 42 ponnds, or about eigth times the weigth of the hen herself, and were remarkably uni form in size, shape and color. Many reqoests have been received at the college to place the hen on exhibition, but on acnount of her great value as a breeder it has been decided that the risks are greater than the value of the advertising. Beef Prices Correspond To Cost of Production. Oregon Agricultural College. Oor- vallis, Ore., Nov 25--Thut the prices of beef are unduly highin oonipaiisun with othei urticles of food, is not believed by Professor E. L. Potter, head of -the Animal Husbandry de- paitment, Oregon AgrinuHnral Col leae. who has made a careful study of the tauge of prices extending over several years. He does not consider David, King of Israel, thought it appropriate to render thanks to Almighty God for the bless ings and comforts of life enjoyed by his people more than three thousand-years ago, and in token of this spirit he wrote two won derful thanksgiving poems that have come to us in the 103rd and 104th Psalms. But how much more we of the present age have to enjoy and be thankful for. Take time from the cares and labors and joys "of the day to spend an hour in the sanctuary where your thoughts may be di rected for one short hour to the source of all blessings, and that due observance of this great American holiday may be had in Heppner. Do You Blame Her? The saying is that troubles never come singly. Truly is this the case of H. J. Parkison, ten cent lawyer and petition circula tor. Some three weeks ago the people of the state of Oregon placed their stamp of disapproval upon his referendum which was placed upon the University ap propriations. Now he has at- tnphprl n rpfpvpnrliim ni" vppnll tn his matrimonial obligations and is sueing his wife for a divorce. He claims that he has been sick for weeks at a time, during which his wife would never visit him. Poor Parkison. And yet we can 'not blame the wife. than is justified by the incresel oost of production. "Of coursn present prices seem high in comparison with ptices which prevailed a few years go," asid Pro fessor Potter, "but it muBt be borne in mind that five-cent cuttle were a losing proposition, and when we con sider that the cost of producton has been constantly increasing nothing could be expueted other! than a gradual closing out of the large herds and a final inorense in price. la addition to diminishing ranges and hieher priced land the cattleman had lo pay for labor, supplies and other factors, the high prices wihch prevail through out the country. For this reason it is not fair to expect him to furnish ns with beef at the old prices. "At the present prices, beef mak ing is reasonably profitable, and if thev are maintained the sunply will doubtless increase somewhat. But should prices go down the cattl nieu will Rgain curtail their beef makiuc operations. Educational campaigns and legislation to increase beef pro duction are of doubtful value. It is the mnintainance of present prioes that will do most to encourage beef production. Lower prices will dis courage it. "The cost of raising beef is about oO percent higher than it was a few years ago, and stockmen will not raise rattle without adrquate returns. Beef prices will fluctuate, but they cannot be kept below the cost of pro duction. "The new tariil will probably have no great effect on beef prices, since the surplus from the groat meat pro ducing countries is alrendv bsing con sumed in Enrope at prices approxi mately the same as our own." IS IT PRINTING ? See The G.-T. About It Marjf of the farmers of 'his section are yet holding their grain, hoping to get a betier trice by spring. In fact it is thought that a dollar a bushel may be realiz-d. There in so ne rea son for this expectation, lha Mexican situation, with the possibility of armed intervention bv this country would pronucp, donbtles b'ing a raise in price; i0 per ceut of the Manitoba cron is said to have been moved already, nd the estimate of exportable supplies in Argentina has dropped from 75,000.000 bushels to 66,000 000 bushels,, while the India coru is far short, and these all help to boost the tuarkat for the American farmer. Of great interest to . every section of the great Columbia basin is the announcement, made by James J. Hill himself within the past week, that a new line of steamers will be pot in operation between the mouth oi tlie river and California points wiihin the next fifteen months. Two fioe con bication freight and passenger steam ers are now being tuilt at Philadel phia, and it is said thev will be the fastest vessels ever nailed nnder the American flag. Each will have capacity for 8()0 passengers and 1,500 tons of freight, and they are expected ( to beat the present best railroad time bet wren Portland and San Francisco by about four hoars.
