Loan Drive
System Here
Legionnaires Preparing
for Campaign to Raise
Quota of Endowment
Fund.
Organization of a campaign sIiik
liar to the loan drives during und
after the World war is the plan
of the 1m Grande post of the.
American Legion for Its job of
raising $1800 in I'nion county, the
quota for the nationul five mil
lion dollar- endowment fund for
orphan children of service men.
Although the amount to be se
cured here is comparatively small
und little difficulty Is anticipated
by Legion members and support
ers In "going over the top," evety
effort will be made to give ull
citizens a chunce to help make
t he cam pulgn a success.
The cause for which tho fund
is being raised Is one that has
aroused the sympathy of leading
citizens throughout trie country
and .'resident Coolidge is honor
ary chairman of the drive the
first time he has taken such part
in any private endeavor, according
to the Legion. The campaign In
Oregon und Union county is of
more than special Interest, also,
duu to the fact that funds from
the Oregon total secured by the
Legion will go to provide operat
ing expenses for the stute's new
hospltul for crippled children.
Tho need for the Legion en
dowment fund and "also funds for
tho Uoernbecher hospital In Port
land is pressing und dollars, given
"for those who gave the most"
will go toward a just and worthy
purpose.

In . excellent condition, considering
the great- amount, of damage suf
fered In many other sections of
the country. While the winter
wheat crop did not escape with
out considerable damage, no large
a c re a ge was damaged enough to
warrant rcseedtng and the grow
ing weather has been such us to
make the grain stool out well
and the stnnd in the majority of
the fields will be fairly good. Some
of the late fall sowings which did
not get up until this spring were
damaged by the wire worms dur
ing the cool weather a few weeks
ago. However, the warm weath
er of the pust two weeks over
came this condition.
Many of the thin spots In the
fields are greening in rapidlv.
Home farmers over the count'-)-
have harrowed portions of then-
fields where the ground was bad
ly, crusted on top. and In a num
ber of Instances they report very
good results, as in places the
crust on top was so hard that
the lender sprouts of grain were
unable to penetrate to the surface.
All fields have a dark green col
or, and much of the grain Is
growing very rank. Some of the
I earliest sow ings which became
well started last fair Is now a foot
or more In heigh th.
The spring sown grain also. Is
coming along in fine shape, the
abundance of. moisture and - the
warm weather having resulted In
rapid germination of the seed, and
the stand In all fields is cvmi,
and In some instance has the
ground, well covered at this ttnw.
Itain Helps stand.
Two good ruins feel liere: d'Jribg
the past week, , aud soaked ihe
ground to a depth of several
Inches. While the chances for
lack of sufficient moisture later
in the season are considerable,
many feel that with the ground
becoming well soaked at this time
of the season, that the chances
Tor a normal crop of all kinds of
grain are very encouraging at this
time.
Considerable summer fallow has
mains to be done. Many of the
farmers In the hill sections have
sown spring grain this year, and
have been unable to get started
plowing summer fallow very early,
but as the ground Is In fine con
dition for plowing, und the weeds
well started they wil be able to
kill more of the weeds thun those
