"NOBILITY"
True worth is in being, not seeming,
In doing, each dny that goes by,
Vme little good not in dreaming
Of jrrj-at things to do by and by.
''or whatever men say in their blind
ness, And spite of the fancies of youth,
"here's nothing so kindly as kindnen
And nothing so royal as truth.

NO MORE TIME SAYS
STATE ENGINEER
KHEA LUPER
What Outcoma Will bo Remains to
Bo Soon (May Moan Now
Water Company
Y terday's Oregonian contained
the information that State Engineer
Rbea Luper had refused to grant tho
Wapinitia Irrigation company an
extension of time in which to per
fect it rights to the water of Frog
creek and Clear creek and to store
) i-,000 acre feet of water.
The decbion of Mr. Luper has
been awaited with interest by all
who live in this section. On that de
iiilon rest the ultmate dr position
of the company' plan ard system
nnl the final becuring cf water with
which to Irrigate the field of Juni
per Flat At the heurii i held last
m wmer it was shown tna the com
I my had ." eived ma trousands
of dol'ars on contract , also that
the contract givers had failed to re
ceive even a modicum of the water
promised. The past ben son witness
ed a needless waste of water by rea
son of neglect of protect" mate
canal, during the spring floods, the
result being that alfalfa fields died
out, stock and domestic water re
duced to a minimum and a general
state of discord engendered.
Later a new company was re
ported formed with ample capital
with which to carry on extension
and improvement at Clear lake.
It was said that men had been em
ployed to construct a dam at the
mouth of Clear lake, but Just what
the idea of ;uch a move really meant
is a matter of conjecture. Later
developments, may show that the
bridge move was but a gesture
jirveant to influence whatever court
action might follow the engineer's
decision. It is a sure thing that
omething will have to be done by
people other than those now controll
ing the Wapinitia Irrigation com
pany, and the final adjustment of
the water quertion will be awaited
with great interest by all who have
paid their money for water as well
as others who are familiar with past
and present conditions on Juniper
Flat

Profits in Poultry for
Western Farmers
Tha fact that Canada consumes 100 per cent more eggs than the U. S.
suggests tremendous possibilities in creating a steadily increasing demand
here at home. And as our year-round, equable climate permits practically
uninterrupted production, the value of thi. greater market to western far
mers cannot be over-estimated.
In the 2000-coop Poultry Exhibit of tho 19th Annual Pacific International
Livestock Exposition at Portland, Oregon, Oct. 26-Nov- 2, will be presented
a complete picture of western achievement in the Poultry industry. Hera,
as in the Livestock divisions of the Exposition, will be demonstrated how
greater production and profits are obtained from pure brtd stock. Other
exhibits include pure bred Beef and Dairy Catte, Horses, Sheep, Hogs,
Goats and Foxc:; also Dairy, Manufacturers' and Land Products; Boys' and
G'rls' Club Work; Industrial Exposition; and world-renowned Horse Show
$100,000 is offered in priae money.
Convinced as we are thBt every farm should have its poultry section, tha
officer of the Maupin State Bank are glnd to have thi opportunity of cll
'n attention to the fact that thi year's Pacific International feature
Poultry, and to suggest that you attend th exposition.

Two matter concernng which we

or Not True Bill as we could not at
thb time find available evidence to
omplete our investigations. In
hese two matters, there are no de
fendants under bail or arrest and we
are suggesting to the district attorney
to make some further investigation
tnd if the newly ascertained fact
justify a recon deration of these
matters they should be called to the
attention of the next Grand Jury.
This Grand Jury was originally
called in September, 1928, and ha
been the Grand Jury of Wasco
County for en entire year and thru

any of the County pope:jtiea
