1 1' nl stoekgrowers, are moving to their
funny Brook farm near Palmer Junc
tion. It is reported that trout fisfting
,in that locality is fine but that, of
c ourse, has nothing to do with it.
J. M. Choate, one of our enterpris
; i:itr merchants sells a brand of flour

: box of bon hons. He expects soon to
,' give a Ford car with endh purchase

having moved out from' La Grande
. where he has worked in the lumber
mills the past year.
The writer of these items is much
pleased to know that Union county
has on agriculturalist to whom we
farmers may go with our knotty prob
lems. His writings which appear in
the Observer from time to time indi
cate that he is a live wire and a man
of gumption.
Our- neighbors out in the valley are
just beginning their spring plawing
owing to the excess of moisture and
Willow creek is running bank full of
clear, cold . mountain water.
: Pastures have 'been hurried to avert
the hay famine imminent a sftort time

I 'IM Ml II W I
j Washington, April 20. To make
'sure he is not deceiving ihis constitu
: ents, and that he is not being deceived
: by the Agricultural Department, as
. well as to experiment in the produc
ition of first class vegetable seed,
' Congress Jesse S. Davenport of Ok
' lnhoma today donned a pair of blue
' overalls and hied away across the
river from 'Washington to cultivate a
seven-acre farm and practice on the
! government's seed crop. Associated
'. with him in cultivation of the festive
soy bean nd the gamboling cow pea
, is J. S. CofFman, an old time employee
i of the government printing office, who
owns the farm. Possessed of the idea
that those numerous packages of
seeds which the government sends out
at the request of "your congressman"
maybe grow turnips instead of Eurlv
Spring radishes, cauliflower instead of
frost-proof cabbages, and spinach in
stead of Golden Heail Lettuce, Con
gressman Davenport has started th's
practical test widMn the- shadows of
the capitol. It might be that they
are good vote-getters and again, a
constituent expecting to raise a crop
of rutabagas surely would ibe irritated
to find parsnips instead.

Want Baker's Garbage.
liaker, April 19. The value of gar
bage thrown away in Baker was
shown this afternoon when a com
munication from a Denver concern
was read at the regular meeting of
the city commissioners, offering to
erect and operate a $30,000 garbage
incinerator in Baker, if the city would
donate the site, collect the garbage
and allow the operators the by-products
from the plant during the next
20 years. No action was taken in the
matter.
