Its Organization WALLOWA (Special) An organiza tion meeting of the Wallowa county non-liigli Bchool board was held July 6. Fred Hlmclwright, of Joseph, was elected aft chairman and Arthur Hayes of Enterprise, vice-chairman, each to serve for one year. The question or transportation of pupils from the out- lying districts to high schools was discussed with all members opposed to the proposition. It was shown that It would entail greater expense at a time when present taxes cannot be met. The widely scattered terrl- tpry to be covered made the propo- 1 Bltlon Impossible. Zt was noted that' with, much of thli territory located In hill sections many with poor roads and deep with snow much of tho school year, the use of bum?s would be Impracticable. Figures of various high schools showing the per-pupll-cost, showed conaldtrable -variation, with some around $75 per year, with others at considerably above $100 per year. It was the opin ion of the board that lower figures Bhoutd he in effect for next year, be cause nearly all schools have made ft reduction in teaching costs. The chairman and secretary were empow ered to sign contracts with the hiRfl schools for the non-high school pu pils who wilt enter school this year. Other meetings of the board wl'.l be held later to confer with the schools regarding tuition next year and to levy the tax needed for ihls purpose. Susquehanna university.

Some in tho valley section are stacking, whtlo others are Just getting their first cropa cut. Some exceptionally heavy fields of alfalfa are seen at various points along the highway. M. A. Peterson, of Whiskey creek, recently finished stacking a 16 -acre field which was seeded last year and re ports a yield of 35 tons of hay from tho field. The first cutting Is two weeks later with many this season, but with an abundance of Irrigation water for use on tho second crup, it Is expected that the second cutting will come about the usual time. Cut ting of grain hay In tho hill sections Js in progress. Much of the badly- squlrrel -eater grain and in some In stances cheat grass is being put up for hay. According to report the greater part of the harvesting wilt bo done with combines, which does away with several men and Is held by many to bo the most economical method. Combining of some of the Irrigated crops in the middle yaliuy section will ulso be done this year according to some of the farmers there.
