The state industrial accident com
mission yestoiday made -settlement
for the fatal accident to Louie Mor
ronc who was killed .while employed
by tho Blewet Harvester company in
Pendleton on January 9, 1917.
Morrone left a wife, 42 years of
age; son 11 year, and a son and
daughter, twins. 4 voars of aim. The
commission set aside $7442.25 to be
placed in the seureirated luridpnt. fimH
and invested in bonds for the benefit
of these dependents and will pay the
widow $30 per month for life and to
the widow for the benefit of each
child, $6 per month until the child
reaches the age of 16 years.
If the widow lives to the age of ex
pectancy, she will have received for
the benefit of herself and child, $11,
577.20. This money is for her per
sonal use only. Payment is guaran
teed by the state; it cannot be set
aside by any action of the court or
process of law nor can it be assigned
by the widow herself but must bo paid
to her in person so long as slie lives.

jump at contusions as to what a crop
, will do for us and we may not have
as favorable season again for a num
l.cr of years. If a crop will show
lyooi returns under unfavorable con
ditions then we may "bank" on re
sults in more favorable seasons. The
season of 191.1 was favorable for Su

About a year ago Mr. Playle of
A Heel, came to the office and told me
he wanted to try out 'some corn for
fodder purposes on his summer-fallow
ground. After considering a num
ber of varieties we decided on Min
nesota 23, a medium growing, early
maturing, white cap sort. We sent to
Corvallis for enough seed to plant
eleven acres. For various reasons the
seed was not planted until May 18. In
due time a good stand of corn made
its appearance and grew lustily un- every six days. The water chould be
