Plans to finance tho ' work of
Community Service In The Dalles
for a year wero made at thu ineet
,ng held in thu Union Street park
Vodnesd;ty night.
Because of numerous other city ac
tivities, only u small crowd nttuid
ul tho limiting, which was succor. i
ul nevertheless. The program lustl
utod last night will be followed up.
I. W. Arbury, Community Service
llrector, who has been in the city
.n the Interests of the work for the
inst three months, left this morn
us for Portland, but expects to 10
urn for another two weeks.
Community Service "stock" cer
iflcates, ornate affairs, wero circu
lated among thosu present at the
ueetlng, and tho "purchasers" of
.hese were underwriters of tho suc
cess of the movement from a fi
nancial standpoint in The Dalles for
.he next year.
Edward C. Pease led off with a
subscription of $100, and this amount
,vas considerably enlarged before
he evening was concluded. The re
:elpts have not yet been tabulated.
The women's chorus guvo two
long numbers which were much en
ioyed. H. W. Arbury led a coniiiiun
ty sing. J. T. Horlck presided and
, ipoko at some length on tho mis
don of Community Service and on
vhnt it lias already accomplished in
.he city.
Edward C. 'Pease, who spoke of
Community Service as it is related
:o good citizenship, said that the
legacy he most desired to leave to
his son and daughter was to be re
membered as a good citizen of Was
co county. Mr. Pease said ho con
sidered tho movement one of social
and material uplift in the city.
T. H. West said, "He is a poor
citizen who serves only his own
family. Community spirit is neces
sary if tho city is to grow or be
come a power." He compared the
community spirit of Pendleton with
that of Tho Dalles, ns being much
bigger and more positive in Pen
llutou. Francis Sexton admitted luke
warmth on the subject at first, but
Jeclared himself strongly for Com
munity Service now.
Rev. John L. llogue commended
ho common ground of Community
Service, in bringing people togeth
er where religious or political def

In speaking of the financing of
tho work for the year, Mr. Arbury
said that if one man should offer
to contribute $5000 for tho year's
work that ho would not accept It,
for that would not bo Community
Service; that it was only possible
is a real success when supported by

was held.
As wo approached, the prince stood
rigidly erect, his heels together and
his hands tight against his trouper

tho dark eyes behind largo spectacles

RECORD WHEAT CROP
FORECASTED IN
COUNTY AGENT FINDS CONDI
TIONS FAVORABLE; STOCK-
MEN ONLY SUFFERERS.
Hairing tho possiblll.y of a hot
east wind, the dread of all eastern
Oregon wheat rancheis, Waso coun
ty will this year huo one of the
biggest harvests of wheal In Its his
tory, according to E. It. .lackmau,
tgrlciiltural agent, who has Just coin
pleled a general survey id the crop
situation.
Tlr.' county's 1!)"1 nop will p:ob
ably yield 1,100,000 bushels of wheat,
is compared lo 1,200.01)11 bushels
grown last year, Juokinan estimates
A hot east wind will materially
reduce this estimate by causing the
wheat to burn. At the present time,
the county's wheat Is In better con
dltion than has, been reported In
years, being unusually thick in
growth. In only u lew Instance1?
have there been found any truce of
i ho wheal binning, ami I his Is only
upon the higher ground with a com
paratively shallow subsoil, .lackinan
points out.
Another factor which will contri
bute towards making this year's
crop a record one Is the fact that
not as much wheat will be cut for
hay as in former years. The advent
of the tractor doing away with the
necessity of feeding big herds of
horses over each winter, has much
to do with this. Another cause for
the small acreage of hay wheal to
lie cut, Is the fact that the grain
is growing so thick this year that
it will only bo necessary to cut
about half the usual amount of acre
age In order lo get the necessary
amo, nit of hay.
Tho alfalfa yield lu the county
will also bo consldeiably greater
this year, in the opinion of the
county agent. The unusually rainy
spilng has helped both the alfalfa
and wheat crops, resulting In a suf
ficient amount of moisture being
stored up to hist until harvest time.
Neither wheal or alfalfa crops are
lu any urgent need of moisture at
present. Heavy showers during the
last week around Maupiu and Wap
lnitlu have done much to freshen
up the growing grain.
Speaking generally, Wia.'ico county
Is In better nliapo, agriculturally,
than any other county in eastern
Oregon at the present lime, Jack
man declares.
Neither the peach nor the cherry
crop will be Very large this year
ho continues, because of continued
showers during the period polllna
Hon. Peach leaf curl and aphis have
also done much to wreck the hopes
for a banner peach crop. There will
bo a larger apricot crop than hn.i
over bntore been recorded lu tho
county, however, .lackinan predicts.
Cattle and sheep men In the conn
ty an not so well fixed, Ueea.ise of
tho low market pilciM for cattle,
sheep and wool, many of these aul
inahi were hold over I rem last year,
with tho lcsult that I hero will pioh
ably bo a scarcity of good range In
tho county during the summer, in
tho iiouth end of tho county sheep
are now being placed on the sum
mer range.
