My Dear Sir: I have been informed that the students in the public school under ;your supervision on Arbor Day, planted trees along the Oregon Trail and the Columbia Highway. As governor of the state I con gratulate you and your pupils on their Interest and devotion to -what $ regard as one of the greatest movements of recent years. Oregon is the heaviest timbered state in the Union at the present time. We have the climate, the soil, and natural conditions to make Ore gon forever the greatest timber state of the Union if we but use the natural conditions with which na ture has provided us. Our highways from one end to the other should be lined with trees of various kinds. We can make Ore gon the most attractive state in the Jlnion and the planting of trees will have much to do with it. Oregon thanks you and the pupils and their parents who assisted you in Initiating this great work. Very truly your, WALTER M. PIERCE, Governor of Oregon. Mr. P. J. Mulkey, Principal Board man School. Please convey to the Btudents of the Boardman school the thanks of the highway commission for the part which 'they have taken in planting trees along the Columbia River Highway in the vicinity of Boardman. It is hoped that the ex ample which they have set may be followed by other schools in the state so that some time in the fu ture we can look forward to having our highways bordered their entire length by trees. There is nothing which will do more toward beauti fying our highways in Eastern Ore gon than planting trees. In appreciation of the work which you have done. Very truly yours.

Accompanied by their teachers they worked west ward from town to a point beyond the Rand's residence. Mr. Board man, superintendent of this section of the highway, was on hand to sup ervise the work and Mayor Balleng er also assisted. Ihe holes having been dug, and the highway boys being in readi ness with a truck loaded with trees and water, the planting was can i on rapidly. Al Macomber conveyed the children on the school bus and acted as traffic officer. By eleven o'clock the task was completed and the pupils returned, satisfied and happy because of the good day's work. The Juniors planted a class tree last week as did also the Freshmen The Freshmen glorified the occa sion by wearing their colors or green and yellow. County Agent Morse has taken initial steps in boys' club work at Boardman. He has chosen 'Mr Packard to assist him with the lo cal club. Last week he brought down four- kloJn young lambs and distributed lihem, giving two to each of the fol lowing boys: Robert Berger, Lau rence Beck, Joe Gorger, Russell Mefford, Eldon Wilson, Buster Rands, Carl Wicklander. We, the members of the Senior class, in order to form a more per fect high school, suggest that the Freshies be put in an incubator, that the Sophies eat hard boiled eggs etc., and that the Juniors take brain reducing exercises each night before retiring, do offer this valu able remedy for the B. H. S. What are we doing in Geometry? Where does Mrs. Crowder get her patience? Has Weldon's supply of Stacombe become exhausted? Why all of these knowing smiles and glances among the Freshmen? A foreboding of evil to come? (Curiosity killed a cat ) Tuesday proved to be a day for visitors: County Superintendent Le na Shurte, Sheriff McDuffee, Prof E. F. Carleton, of the University of Oregon; and Mr. Instow of Pine City spent the afternoon while en- route to Heppner. The Sophomores planted their lass tree, which is a silver poplar Wednesday. The first and second year English (class are studying a classic called, "The Odyssey." JOKES Miss Marvin "Do you know any thing about the Mayflower com pact?" Erma "No. I UBe DJer Kiss." Mr. Mulkey "James, carrying four subjects?" James "I'm carrying dragging three." are you one and Johnnie -"I want your daughter for my wife." Mr. Jones---"Well, you go home and tell your wife that she can't have my daughter." The members of the civics class are discussing the most Important (litest ions that are now before con gress, such as: Immigration, soldier bonus, Japanese, and education. Mrs. Horiem and son, A T., Mrs. Kozer and Mrs. Macomber visited the school last week. In Just about three more weeks we wil see the Seniors rushing mad-, ly about working out credits, etc.,' the Juniors will have consumed a look of superiority at the very' thoughts of rilling such 'dignified places next year, the Sophomores will begin to wonder bow ou earth they will be able to drop their "soft" ways; und the Freshmen1 will be glad to be entered as upper classmen and to help next year o Initiate the poor oncoming Freshies. The Freshmen General Science class has modi1 a brief study of hy giene, physiology and anatomy. Mrs. Crowder "Weldon, why did you whisper to Genevieve? Don't lyou know it is wrong to whisper?" Weldon- "But she whispered, and I answered her." Mrs. Crowder "Didn't you know J punish people for whispering?" Weldon "Y-Yes, but the Bible says sweet answers turrteth away wrath." Carl "My brother sure is a dumb guy." Howard "How's that?" Carl "Why, thy'd have to burn down the school house to get him out of the Freshman class." Lives of Seniors all remind us, We can make our lives like their's, And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the high school stairs. County Superintendent Lena Snell I Shurte, Mr. E. F. Carlton of the University of Oregon, and Mr. Mc Duffie of Heppner, visited the Irri gon schools on Tuesday of this wee'k. Mrs. Shurte visited with the primary and intermediate grades, while Mr. Carlton brought a mes sage of inspiration to the upper grades and the high school. The visitors were all entertained at the noon hour with an excellent repast served by Mrs. Stnrgill. Summer pasture for young pigs is being arranged by forward-look- Oregon growers. Rape or grain for pasture is recommended bv the college extension service where al falfa is not grown. stocking on grazing lands is "kill ing the goose that lays the golden egg." Profit in beef or mutton de pends upon ample grass. An import ant step in. good grazing practices is to allow some grass to go to se.ed every third or fourth year. Dipping the sheep soon after shearing is recommended as good Oregon practice by the state college extension service. It reduces the cost of dipping, keeps ticks off the lambs and increases the size and quality of the next season's clip. Grain Dealers Baying From Canada Screenings Market jgent Spencer Moat consumption can best be r-tabftiaed if producers will pay e!o:er attention to the quality of ctosk they produce. Off grade ani mals produce off grade meat, which is not as readily consumed as good quality stuff.

Mr. Spencer had a sample of one of these cars analyzed and the result showed 79 per cent of weed seed, chaff, dust and other dockage and 21 percent of cracked wheat. The daily market reports ouote chicken mashes and dairy feeds $50 per ton and up. The far mers of Oregon got from $26.06 to $30 per ton for their first class wheat and then they pay $0 and up per ton for Canadian screenings that have but 21 per cent of wheat and a smear of molasses. If the wheat growers were organized half as strongly as the grain dealers are they would not have to sell good wheat at less than production cost nor buy back foreign screenings at nearly double the price of their wheat.

A good grazing practice on Ore gon pasture land is to keep the stock off the grass in the spring un til it has a start.
