Offers Fine Prize
In the complete or almost com
plete list of special prizes to be
given at the approaching Eastern
Oregon Livestock show, there was one
prize which was net named and
that was not our fault. We read
where certain firms were giving a
secend prize In the contest where
Jimmie mi us. oi uove, was onering
first prize.' and we saw, Incidentally,
where a third prize was being of
fered. But we could not find the an
nouncement of what Jimmie Mills'
first prize was. Now we have It and
we want to publish it to mako our
list complete. Mr. Mills is offering a

The Summervllle cemetery, located
on the top of the hill in the northern
part ot the county. Is one of the out
standing community projects In this
vicinity. It is beautifully located"

received excellent care during the
uiuny years since ine land was given
for that specific purpose. There are
many more than 2000 graves in this
burying ground and residents from
all over the county take their dead
there, that their Last resting place
may be in a place as beautiful as
this Is.
Tomorrow is the day for the annual

as many people who. year after year,
attend the dinner, have no idea of the
amount of money needed, nor the
manner of Its disbursement, the fol

two of the officers, Mrs. Etta Welch,

Face Serious
Problem With
pround Squirrel
That the ground squirrel situation
Is said to be quite serious at' this
time in many places In Wallowa, Is
the report made this week by G. C.
Meek, who also reports on weather
conditions and crops as follows:
the young rodents have been coming
out in fvtr.mpir ir. ,hr 5
out In extremely large numbers and
with dry conditions prevailing mak
ing the bunch grass and earlier vege
tation tough they have been moving
Into the grain fields and doing much
damage. Poisoning Is being done at
many places and many report excel
lent luck In getting quantities of the
young squirrels which seem to take
to the poisoned grain much more
romv ik.. .h u i,i. i
early spring there appeared to be a 1
scarcity of old stock and many were
led to believe that but little trouble
would be experienced In preventing
damage to grain crops. During the
next month is usually the most criti
cal time for large amounts of damage
to crops from ravages of the squirrels
and from present appearances it is
likely that several tons of poisoned
oats will be used by the farmers of
this community.
To Ship Lambs
Plans are being made at this time
to commence the shipment of some
of the early lambs from this section.
According to A. W. Johnson, who has
charge of looking after shipments of
the Wallowa county stock marketing
association from this end of the val
ley, an effort will be made to get out
tambs xorVLl? I
lambs desired for shipment should
weigh from 70 to 80 pounds and be
fat.
Lambs In Good Shape
Some exceptionally fine lambs, are
seen among tne small flocks of this
end of the valley. These were January f
snd Fbmarv lambs whfrh hr- nut I
and February lambs which have put !
on weight rapidly since being on good
green pasture. It is expected that
frequent shipments will be made dur-
Ing the next couple of month, as
manv of the flock owners feeling that !
there Is a likelihood of prices8 Co" i

for market for some two or threi '

Are Fattening Hoes
A considerable number of hoes are
being placed In fattening pens at
this time to be finished out for June

"Ancient and Modern Necromancy,
alias Mesmerism and Hypnotism. De- 1
nounced" will be the subject of the
lesson-sermon in all Churches of
Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, May 31.
' The golden text will be. "Sing unto
the Lord, praise ye the Lord: for he
hath delivered the soul of the poor
from the- hand of evildoers' (Jer.
20:13).
Among the citations which will
comprise the -lesson-sermon will be
the following from the Bible; "For
we wrestle not against flesh and
100a, - out against principalities,
against powers; against the rulers of
the darkness of this world" (Eph.
6:12).
The lesson-sermon will also In
clude the following passages from the
Chrlstton Science textbook, "Science
and Health with Key to the Scrip
tures," by Mary Baker Eddy: "As
named in Christian Science, animal
magnetism or hypnotism is the spe
cific term for error, or mortal mind.
It Is the false belief that mind Is
In matter, and Is both evil and good:
that evil is as real as good and more
powerful.- This belief has not one
quality of Truth. It Is either ignor
ance or malicious" (p. 103).
