The fact that the price on hog had gone up to six cent was received as very good news by hog raisers In the valley. While this represents $2 per hundred more than the market of two months ago It does not yet give the shipper the chance to break even. It Is better though, and that Is some thing.

Island Wins In an Interesting game of ball Sun day afternoon at Island City, the team from that place defeated a team from Elgin by the narrow margin of 9 to 8, so It is reported. Unsurpassed For years now, month after month many or us, perhaps the majority of us, have devoured page after page of beautiful places as pictured by the National Geographic, or some similar publication. You have, haven't you? Then you have sighed, laid the maga zine to one side and wondered when your ship would ever come In to make it possible for you to see some of the grandeur of the great, beau tiful world. Well, there is one thing about having your vacation one day at a time. There Is too little time to listen to the Intriguing things you hear about California, or even Wash ington or Idaho, and you must needs see the things close at hand. That is what we have been doing and strnngely enough, like some other things, the fascinations of the "Geo- graphic" have been found duplicated or excelled right at our very door. How silly then to spend time or money to go other places and hunt out bewitching places before seeing the glorious things at home. Last weekend, Prof. Elmo Stovcnson of the Eastern Oregon Normal school fac ulty, arranged a trip up into the Lake BaBln, from Wallowa Lake Wonder land and anyone who desired to, could bo one of tho party.

Hi 1av to Health pyA D A,R-rM AYN E OREGON AIRY COUNCIL PICNIC D1NNKKH This time of the year brings picnics and In many cases planning a plcnlo dinner seems more of a task than to plan the usual dinner at home. The main consideration, of course, is to plan food that can be carried and served easily. Often the picnic din ner contains too much starch and protein and not enough of greert veg etables. There Is no reason, even with a cold lunch, why the plcnlo dinner cannot be a balanced meal nutri tionally. Any sandwich of cheese or meat will be improved by the addition of lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber or a little onion. . Many people prefer to., prepare the dinner at the picnic grounds. This offers many possibilities. The mak ings of salads are carried separately and mixed Just before serving. Cot tage cheese Is an important part of this type of picnic meal. It may be served alone or in combination with fruit, such as pears, peaches, pine apple, green peppers and tomatoes, as a salad. It adapts Itself as easily to sandwiches. A cottage cheese club sandwich Is made of three slices of bread, one being spread thickly with cottage cheese, with lettuce and salad dressing addod. The filling for the other layer, may be tomatoes and bacon, cucumbers, cold ham with let tuce, or it may be fruit, and If a sweet sandwich Is preferred. Jelly or marmalade is used. This type of La Grande at 4 a. m. Saturday. Ar riving at the lake, they wero taken care of by Harley Hamilton and Keith Wilson, with a string of dependable horses and four or five pack horses, and some time after seven started the trek up to the Lake Basin. Mr. Stevenson and the three boys, Posey, Norton and Hurd, hiked all of the way. To describe the trip even half, would be impossible the see A cry lit erally beggars description. There was lots of climbing, but made enjoyable by sure footed beasts, fording of creeks, the river and one end of Horseshoe lake. The first stop was made Just after fording the river, when the first detachment prepared and served lunch. How necessary this rest and this food were at this par ticular time was not realized until the longest and steepest pull (for the length) which came Immediately of ter lunch had been completed. Then camp was made on tho""'Bhore of Horseshoe lake. It was made qulto early In the afternoon allowing sev eral hours for fishing, oxplorlng- the surrounding country and gathering boughs for bods for the night. Of course not all the comforts of home were to bo had; some found out that Simmons beds did not conform to tho rest of the picture and won dered if the stone Jacob had for a pillow was very hard, and the mos quitoes up there were not the nice little singing creatures that wo have In this valley but - were more like sonorous humming birds, or wood peckers. But the big camp fire with songs and stories and special music by Miss Williams and Mr. Hanna more than made up for the other things. The Journey proceeded next morning with the way leading to Lee lake, and the falls, up tho steep climb to Moccasin lake, and on to Douglas lake, then to Mirror lake. Much snow Was encountered and some of the trolls which the party planned to cover were Impassable on that account. At Mirror lake another stop was made, where the sheep were divided from the goats, rather those who planned to climb to the peak of Eagle Cap went on, and tho others, explored Minor Mirror and various other very Interesting places In that vicinity. Seven made the climb to tho peak, doing It In something over two hours. Sliding down the snow helped the descent and made tho re turn possible In much less than an hour. Well, mountain climbing was much easier than "uncllmblng," and members of the crowd learned the truth of the childhood sport "what goes up must come down," and one thought of wills, life Insurance, good and bad deeds, especially since the horses were for more used to the de scent than wero the passengers and governed their speed accordingly. But It Is an experience now, and a part of the thrill, and with several days in between, we can smile and even laugh out loud at Borne of the things on that downward march. March! March? Or was It a gallop? We were back In camp at Horseshoe In time for luncheon. We broke camp Im- the Devout Hear Pope's Voice t sandwich makes a complete meal In Itseir. Children need milk at a picnic Just as any other meal. 'In fact, milk should be provided for everyone, as it does more to 'balance' a picnic lunch or dinner than any other sin gle food. Carried In a thermos Jug, It can be kept cold. If a thermos Is not available a covering made from some wool material as a clean sweater sleeve or something similar, dipped In cold water and wrapped around the milk bottle, will assure a cold drink when ready to serve. Ice cream makes the perfect picnic dessert. Children are delighted with Ice cream cones or sandwiches, as are adults. The wafers for ice cream sandwiches can be purchased at most stores and come in various colorB. Ice cream and cake are hard to Improve upon, however, and the Ice croam can be served with sweetened fresh fruit or berries, to lend variety. The family that likes plcnlo meals can have an Impromptu plcnlo al most any time, and without much trouble If a picnic basket is kept ready, and by using left-overs for sandwiches and salads, It need not mean a great deal of preparation. The plcnlo Is one way to vary tho diet, for change of scene gives a different flavor to the same foods, even If It does not change tho actual choice of them. mediately thereafter and reached Wallowa about 5:30.

Success Depends On Laying Stock The proper raising of young stock Intended for layers is one of the most Important factors in successful poul - aid Brazle of the Washington State college poultry husbandry division. Pullets that have been poorly grown show a high mortality In tho laying house as well as lessened egg produc tion. Good, healthy, vigorous, well- raised pullets constitute the very cornerstone of poultry raising sue- Clean and is listed by Mr. Brazle as an absolute essential for consist ent success In pullet raising. The term "clean land" Implies land on which chickens have not ranged In previous years, or land that has been rested by keeping chickens off for a year or two. An Ideal system for ranging young stock is to work them In with the farm cropping system and handle as a part of the rotation program. A field containing a cultivated crop such as corn or sunflowers makes good range, aa well as furnishing shade for the stock, provided a field or green range Is available. A pasture or alfalfa flold makes good range, but livestock must bo kept away from tho chickens' water vessels and feed, troughs. An orchard provides an Ideal range for chickens, but if the same orchard Is to bo used year after year, It should be divided into halves or thirds and tho chickens ranged In one or tho other of the enclosures on alternate years. Strength Ran in Family Nancy Turner, in her "The Moth er of Washington," quotes an acquaintance of Augustine's (George Washington's fnther), as snylng, "Six feet in height he was, of noble nppearnnce and manly pro portions, wilh the most extraordl nnry muscular power. Over at the Piinclpla Iron works, where he act ed as agent, lie used to lift up and place In a wagon a mass that two ordinary men could hardly have raised from the ground." Pioneers TODAY WE HAVE ABNER PAGE, IMBLER I was born In Indiana In 1853 and when a young man my parents moved to Marshall county, Missouri. The girl whom I later married had crossed the plains to Oregon In 1862 but had returned some years later. . Aa soon as I was old enough to work I fol lowed mechanical trades, mostly In saw mills and grist mills. My wife thought there would be good oppor tunities In this line of work In the Oregon country' bo on the first of April 1884, we joined a train of eight wagons and headed westward. My wife had told me of the abundance of big game along the road and I think that had a lot to do with my decision to make tho trip. I was not disappointed In this respect for wa had all the fresh meat we needed all the time, mostly deer and antelope. We had three children, all girls and the eldest died on the way. I had B5 when I left Missouri and a good span of mules and a wagon. We arrived at Weston In October and I was broke and In debt. I got a Job plowing for a white man who had an Indian wife. About one year later we moved to the Wallowa country and I started up the saw mill for Jim Mit chell near Enterprise. I cut the lum ber for tho first house built In En terprise. Later I Installed and set In operation most of the saw mills In the I Elgin country. I sawed the lumber ifor the depot at Elgin and many of ! OWier Old IMOlMtH lilB i 'ntuth8 TL!"?

The fishing and hunting were great then. I remember Wallowa Lake had the annual run of Red. fish each fall. They weighed about 214 pounds and were delicious. When they began building Irrigation ditches the young Red fish would get Into the ditches In the spring Instead of going down the river and back to the ocean and in a few years these famous Red fish runs were no more. In 1806, I went to work for John McKliuua, at Elgin, running the flour mills motive power. In 1003, I came to Imbler to work for him In the aame capacity In the mill he had built hers. I know that many of the younger generation make fun of us old timers when' we talk of the good old days but I reaUy believe people enjoyed life more then. Certainly they did not have so rouoh to worry about. There was lota of work and It was easy for anyone to make a living and save money. I think the best times X ever saw was in the Elgin country when there were 17 saw mills tribu tary to that place. . That took a lot of men to run the mills and logging -Mid to haul the lumber to town. They didn't have a lot of expensive automobiles to maintain In those days and they got along better than we do now. I have been running a gar arge now for many years and I have seen many high priced cars come and many big bank accounts go. This valley Is all right and It's going to Improve and get better. People bib :now learning a valuable lesson to live within their means. - It was the reckless antelope that got the hunt ers, bullet, the reckless Indian scout who stopped the arrow and the reck less farmers and business men have mostly gone broke.
