The government used to be
much criticised, and justly, for the
dilatoriness with which it con
structed river and harbor and
other improvements, and the con
tract system, geuerally adopted
during a few years past, was hailed
as a much-needed reform and in
deed it has in most cases been a
great improvement over the old
system of federal dilly dallying
and redtapeism.
But it seems that in the case of
the Celilo caua', so far, the con
tractors have not mad any
better progress than government
engineers would have done. Dur
ing half a year they have done
only about L'O per cent of the con-;
tract work for the year, and at
this rate it will take two hud a I
half times as loug to complete the
canal as was estimated, or some 13

Why Don't Homeseekers Come To Mcrrovv
County?
Morrow county produces more wealth per capita than any other county in
the state of Oregon. Our territory within county lines is 75 miles in length by ;."
miles in width, large enough ior a state, but with not enough population for a good
sized country village. Only fiOOO people in the county.
Every year we grow about 1,000,000 bushels of wheat. This is worth abon
! $7(10,000. '
Wm haye about 225.000 head of sheep worth about $502,000, after shearing
while the wool from these sheep will sell for $300,000. Then there are horses and
cattle woith at east a half a million more.
These aie the main items la the wealth producers.
It don't take much figuring when you look at these figures to come to the
conclusion that Morrow county people make some money. We have the soil, the
climate and the goods to make good.
Morrow county's climate Is pleasant and healthful.
Morrow county people are prosperous. Morrow county people have money.
Here in the town of Heppner we have two banks. The First National in publish
ed statements shows deposits running from half a mil. ion dollars up. Both banks
have a big business. Heppner can show the largest bank deposits of any town of
its size in the Northwest, and it should be remembered that Lexington, nine miles
away, and lone, 18 miles from Heppner both liaye banks doing a good business.
This looks like Morrow county people have money.
But look here, almost half the population of Morrow county reside in the
towns. This leaves only between 3,000 and 4,000 people in a territory 75 miles in
lenuth by 35 miles in wealth. Don't you think there is room for more people.
Ten or twelve years ago land in Morrow county went begging hi from $100 to
250 for a quarter section.
Five years ago this land had looked up to $0.00 and $7.00 per acre. Today
this land is woMh $15 per acre with a few of the clio'u eat lots some times bringing
$20 per ecre. Now the old timers are wondering why they did not take advautage
of this cheap land. They could have made a barrel of money
Over in the adjoining county of Umatilla wheat lands today are worth from
$50 to $75 an acre. Ou the other side of us is Sherman county with w heat lands
selling from $25 up. Here we are between with jut as good land land at $15 per
acre. Our lands are sure to go up in price. Io a few yearn the people here will
be again wondering why the v did not buy some of this $15 land. The proposition
is the same now as it was a few vears ago, but it takes more money. I. rut year
and year before a number of good farmers bought wheat lands and paid for it
with the first crop.
Come to Morrow county and investigate this land business.
Following are a few samples of what we have for sale:
