object the establishment of a large
central dairy, equipped on modern
lines for supplying milk to Portland
consumers. It is proposed to submit
to all laws and tests, and to supply
Portland with the best grade of milk
that can be produced. The few diB
eased cows wlll be eliminated from
the' various herds and their places
be filled with young and healthy ani
mals of the best dairy typed. Sub

taken and there Is every prospect

Morrow county was created February
16, 1888, by the state legislature. (Spe

prises a part of the western portion of
Umatilla county, as the latter then was.
It Is named for Jackson L. Morrow,
who waa an old resident of what was
created Morrow county. He was a mem
ber of the Oregon legislature when the
Din passed.
Morrow county Is now bounded: On
the north by the Columbia river; on the
east by Umatilla county; on the south
by portions of Grant and Wheeler coun
ties; and on the west by Gilliam county
and a small portion of Wheeler county.
It's county seat is Heppner.

Last but hot least of th chief of-

ber I. women who begin to put on
their things and prepare to leave when
they see signs of the final curtain. At
most they will not gain two or three
minutes and the final curtain will be
ruined for those who would have liked
to see It. There are signs of decrease
in this practice at some of the theatrea
but It la still seldom that when the cur
iam goes aawn there are not a score or
more people bustling up and around to
get out. . f
The peculiar part of It u that th.

had previously been made, It was Watt
who first conceived the practical use of
the steam engine,
