Nature's et;ot season, balmr May, the monilt of ajp!e blossoms, lias again rolled around, and fragrance is in t lie air. Hfi'i'tirr'i apple orchards, attti their wealth of bloom, make pleasant pietarea on which to feast the eye and The observance of arbor day is a custom alinoet sure to rwnlt in great good to toe country if its chief aim is properly followed up. At present almost all the young tres recently set out are thriving, tmt later on a great many of them will be neglected. They will need water and will not get it. They will become the rooeting place of bugs of all kind?, who will hold un interrupted picnics ou their trunk" and cause death to many of them. Thus the good work of arbor day will be work WMted. delight the eenae of em"'!. Among the moat beautiful apple or chards in He) pner are those of Senator Morrow, Abe Wells, Tom MatU-k, Tom Morgan, Oscar Minor and Jude Keith W?t and l; K. Hynd. Iwn tiie creek there is a wealth of bloom in the orchard o( Judge Dutton and John Hashes, while up tbe creek the orchard on the James Jones place, planted f.rfl by the pioneer, Frank Maddock, is full of snowy beauty. On up furtht't 'the beauty spots are the or chards of James Neville, James Hager, N. A. Kelly, Al. and Price Florence, P. R. Oreswell and Tom McCullough. I'p further J. N. Beeler has a mountain orchard, and I. N. Basey and Cud Hatt will have orchards on their placee later on. r-hteprauch, and the Heppner EXPORT TRADE. The fiscal var ending June 30, 1901, promises to beat the record in the value of American exports. Last vear thev reached the enor mous sum of tl, 314,000,000, but the experts of the treasury bureau of statistics are certain that will be largely exceeded this year and con fident that the amount will go be yond a billion arjd a half dollars. At the close of March, the gain on last year was more than $S6,000, 000. In this year's increase the farmers of the country are the chief beneficiaries, their products showing a greater percentage of increase than thoae of the manu facturers, while last year and the year before the manufacturers were the largest gainers. With this showing, added to the fact that this government now owns more gold than it ever owned before and more than any other government in the world's recorded history ever owned, surely republicans Lave a riiht to feel proud of their administration, their congress and their party. TRUE TKKACHEKY. When tbe hostile Snake Indians over ran Eastern Oregon in '7S, they eipect ed the Umatillat to join them. Tbe Umatillas sat on their war-horses on the agency knoll and watched the battle be tween the white soldiers and tbe hostile Snakes. For awhile the contest was about even. But after charges and counter-charges the whites won, and when the struggte was practically set tled the Umatillas rode over each other in their efforts to get on the winning side. And that evening they came to the camfires aud tried to ring in on the soldier's supper. But they were properly snubbed. A repetition of tbe above incident is seen in tbe case of that toeacueroue sheet, the Heppner Hard Times, when it made its attempted flop at the close of tbe campaign. sum-many IT IMPROVES. As far back as 20 years ago some ttockmen used to say that the Ilet'Dner Hills range was all ate out and the bunchgrass gone, Tom Avers, the pioneer stock man, need to dispute this assertion and say that in coming years the Heppner range would support 20 head of stock where it was then eupporting one. Facts and figures show that Mr. Ayera was right, and since then hi" Butter creek ranch has made many men rich. And it almost all came from grass, with very little cultivation. The native grasses of the Hepp ner Hills have wonderful recupera tive qualities, and where they have been overstocked and ate out they only required half a chance, to grow up again better than ever. sheep have been great factors in improving the range. They have trodden down the big bunches of coaree grass and caused a perfect pod of fine grass to spring up on what was comparatively bare ground before. Thus the capacity of the range to support more stock is increasing, and its future is very bright For when the O. R. fc . Co'e industrial department gets its new stvle of alfalfa introduced and growing all the year round all over the range, the stockraising capaci ty of this region will be vastly in creased. The fctockmen of Morrow county have a cood thing, and are wisely increasing their land-holdings while the prices of land are so low. For soon the natural increase in population will naturally in crease land values. The Heppner Hills country has produced many millions of money in live stock, and will produce many millions more. The indus try is in its infancy. People who want to engage in a very remunerative business should come to Heppner and buy a stock ranch. COUNTY feUKVLYOR. Tbe new law which goes into effect May 2S makes the office of county purveyor a most important position, as it should be. That official will hereafter have romplete supervision of the con struction of bridgn, culverts, roads, dit he- or other putlio workB to be c-oretruct'-d und.-r the authority of the ruur-ty court.

The popularity of Seaside as a mer resort is enJ.nced bv the improvements being made there for the accommodation of visitors during the ensuing season. More than a score of new summer cottages are either com pleted or in course of construction and several more will be added before the season opens. Patrons of this resort, which has all the natural advantages, will kail with delight tbe addition of a modern water and sewerage system, upon which ac tive operations have benun and will be completed in time to supply pure whole some water from a nearby mountain stream to all those who follow the throng and appreciate the efforts of the pro moters of a progressive summer resort. Many people who formerly spent eutings at other northwest beaches are now and have been permanent patrons of Clatsop beach ever since the compls- tioa of the Astoria dt Columbia River Railroad from Portland to Seaside. During the summer season ,this com pany has made rates and offered the public a train service, which for cheap ness and convenience could not be ap proached by the rival transportation lines. The raihoad has not yet an nounced its rates and schedule for the season which is about to open, but they are preparing to handle larger crowds than thev did last year: in view of this fact' it is only fair to presume that they will have some new advantages to offer to seasiders. A SUMMER'S FANCY. Percy H. Levari came up from The Dalles this week, where he has very sue cessially presented a series of dramatic performances with home talent. Mr. Levin is an actor and manager of well known ability, and under his di rection will be preserved in Heppaer on Friday, May 10, tbe bright, sparkling comedy in 4 acta, "A Summer's Fancy The cast will be composed of the best local talent in Heppner, and the per formance will be under the auspices and for the benefit of the Heppner lodge of Elks.

It begins to lock i. though the Hepp ner Hilis country was iiow heuiii discov ered, for every du's ti.iin luings people w ho are seeking locations and lookiug into the matter of buying lands. Those of them who have looked around are free to admit that they find good hinds iu Morrow county ofleied al lower pi ices than anywhere else. Hut they ti'id that the lauds advertised ;i few months ago at very low prices have iUI been sold, and now all vaius mo on the increase. Among the newi vuncis iu Heppuer this week were E. P.

The the alderman from the thirteenth ward tried hia hand at it. For one hour be battled. men he sst down and wiped bis perspiring brow. The child cried more lustily than ever. Then iike a flash came a brilliant idea to ttie citv father. He owns a grapho nhone. He cot the machine and lined U up in front of the baby's cradle, il trained the mouthpiece agaiust the cry- in child. Then the alderman staited the machine. The sweet entrancing notes of "Dear Midnight of Love" came torth from the graphophone. The child stopped cry- , then listened in delight. The al derman took advantage of the luU to beat a hasty retreat to be 1. The graph- ophoue kept on with "Dear Midnight of Love" and then broke into " W me, o- uien and song." The child continued juiet and happy. Then the giapho phone sang merrily ''When Kuebn Comes To Town," aud as the tune changed to "Go To sfleep' My Lii' Pic canninny," the baby's tired eyes cluoed and there came a contented snore from the aldermanic couch. ffince then the graphophone has been tried on the baby and has never failed to bring peace to the Zernan. household.
