As a race we have never had enough
fruit. Most of our diseases are a
; result from over-eating and the eat
ing of heavy, hard-to-digest foods.
Meats and greasy foods may be good
but the less we eat of them the bet
ter we are. Indigestion is a modern ill
with which the ancient was unac
quainted. Fruit of all kinds, especial
ly apples, tends to modify the desire
tor unwholesome food and increase
the flow of bile, and their plentiful
use will add to our happiness and
length of days, by eliminating the
dregs of much pessimistic philosophy.
We need more apples.
Soil, sunshine, water and brains
combined will produce more apples.
At least this is the experience of one
of our well known readers, Mr. L. A.
Doble, who lives in the town of Irri-
gon. bometime ago we called on Mr.
Doble at his ranch and found him
boxing apples for the market. He
has a 25-acre patch of apples, "with
alfalfa growing between the rows and
hogs on top." Nothing is lost and in
the problem of eliminating waste and
taking up the economic slack, Mr.
Doble has it down to a point where a
crack out of the box is almost impos
sible.
The Doble land is gently sloping
and what is termed excellent land to
irrigate. On it is a neat, unpreten
tious home, the barnyard contains a
barn for the cows, chickens and hogs
and a place for the sorting and box
ing of apples. Apples constitute the
main crop to which they devote their
attention. There are over 1500 trees
on the place, 1100 of these being of
the Delicious variety in which Mr.
Doble has great faith as the ideal
apple for this locality. The day we
happened there he had gathered Wine
saps, Spitzenbergs, Orencos and Yel
low Newtons. These apples were
large, well formed and of the type
displayed by Irrigon at the Morrow
County Fair and later by Morrow
County at the State Fair and which
were one of the main point winners
which placed Morrow County in first
place in County displays. '
Mr. Doble told us that he shipped
about 300 boxes thin year and sold to
local consumers 100 more. These
apples sell for one dollar per box,
NeedlesB to say, they didn't pinch
themselves, but have sufficient for
their own use.
The Doblcs raise other things than
apples. We countxl forty or fifty
hogs on the place and aside from their
small initial cost, the price they bring
in the market is a tidy little sum and
mostly on the profit side of the ledger,
In the yard were four cowg and two
or three calves. Feed for the cows
is raised on the land between the
rows of trees and the dairy products
which four cows can produce in
twelvemonth will total well up in
three figures. Chickens and eggs
raised for the market bring in
steady revenue and always find
ready sale.
There is a glamour in doing things
on a big scale, something fascinating
and compelling in the operation. And
so it is with farming. To farm 2(100
acres of land is no small undertaking
and for one man to do the job with
hired assistance is something which
there is still sonsiderable doubt as
to its practicability. A prominent
lady of lone recently said, "We tried
to farm 2000 acres of land but it
would I in better keeping with the
facts to say that wc merely scratrhed
the ground." She has a firm grasp
on farm facts and observation car
ries out the statement that large
tracts are not profitable, in other
words, tackle something your own
size.
To us it seems that to farm right
implies a farm such as our friends
the Doblcs are found to possess. Here
is a family cultivating 2.1 acres nf

IS THIS Jl'STICE?

Phone No. 562
To the Citizens of Heppner and Mor
row County:-
Oti Thursday, heptomlier 1 .l'.'l 1
mvself and inv wife had rooms in 111
rooming house in connection with the
Elkhorn Restaurant, in the city ol
Heppner. My daughter and son wen
employed in the restaurant at thi
time and owing to the great rush ol
business my wife volunteered to peel
a pail of potatoes. While she was at
tending to this mat tor, a couple of
drunk young men stepped into the
doorway between the k'lcnen anil uin-
ing room mid stayed there until they
became a nuisance to the waiters and
the cook. The waiters appealed to
the proprietor to have them moved out
of the way and Gong Lane pointed
out the sign, which read, "Keep out
of the kitchen, gi 'e your orders in
the dininir room, we will be pleased
to serve vou. make no trouble.
The young men rcltiscd to move anil
I.ane took a broomstick and struck
one of them oer the head. The
young limn caught J.anc by the
lapel of the coat and Mailed to kick
him. He was getting the best ol
Lano when the hitter patty appealed
to my son, Jake, and nked .lake to
put the young man out of doors, .lake
was leading bun t, maids the front
door when the young mini asked to he
allowed to go bark nfler his hut,
which he had lost in the sciilllc with
Ijine. lie picked up bis hut and
started towards the door. My son,
Jake, was Mill holding him by the
lapel of the coat, when llu oilier
young man jumped on to Juke's back
and struck him lepented'y in the back
of the head and in other place-i. Juke
went ahead ami shoved the In .t young
man out of the duo.' and then pulled
the other man oi his bin k mid -hnved
him out also. The 1 ity Mat hall who
at the front door, on I he out .de, at
went into the kitchen where my wife
had resumed her work, and put her
under arrest.
I'he officers then started toward the
jail, where they had intended to place
Lane and my wile in confinement.
Owing to the press of business, I.ane
proposed to put up a cash bond to
guarantee the appearance of himself
and Mrs. Dexter in court at a tune
to be fixed by the officers. The pro
posal was accepted and $20 each cash
bond was given to the marshal.
The marshal set the time for bear
ing to be held the next day, but owing
to the rush of business, the City
Recorder agreed to hold over the hear
ing until the Monday folowing. Mrs.
Dexter was in town all day on the
Monday set for the hearing, and at
various times was seen by the mar
shal, but at no time was ordered or
requested to appear in Court.
It appears that a certain party,
representing Gong Lane, spoke to the
marshal regarding the matter, several
days after the fair, and at that tiuu
the marshal handed this party $20 o
the $40 cash bail put up by Lane, and
informed him that the other $20 had
been retained by the City Recorder
as a fine of $10 each upon the charge
of "disorderly conduct," preferred
against Lane and my wife, Mrs.
Dexter.
At no time has Mrs. Dexter been
accorded the privilege to plead to
this charge. No semblance of a hear
ing was ever held to allow her to
present evidence clearing herself from
the charge, but at the present time
the records of the City of Heppner
contain a plea of "guilty to the
charge of "disorderly conduct" made
tor her by another party, without any
authorization on her part whatsoever.
1 he part 1 wish to bring belore the
iti.ens of Heppner and ol Morrow
County is the fact that, without her
knowledge, a plea of "guilty" was
made to this charge and is now a mat
ter of record. What innocent wo
man, or man tor thai matter, is mere
in this city or county who, as an in
nocent bystander, would like to be
dragged into a matter of this kind and
have a charge ot this sort placed on
the records of the city where they will
stand for all time, without even be
ing accorded the privilge of a denial
his own mother handled in such n mi-
false and thereby strike this dark
blot, from her otherwise fair name,
off the records as they now stand?
What kind of a Court is this that
conducts such a grave matter in such
a slighting way? How would this
udge, who imposed this unjust line
and made it a matter of record that
an innocent woman was "guilty" of
"disorderly conduct," when, as would
be attested by several witnesses, she
was entirely innocent ot this or any
other charge, like to have the name of
his own mother handled in such un
cerimonious and disgraceful way? Is
it not possible for a person to protect
their fair name in this great and
glorious country, the laud of the free,
where chivalry is not supposed to be
a matter of myth but a reality? Is
there no way bv which Ihis woman
can be allowed to disprove the charge
now on record against her in the t ity
of Heppner, and thereby have thi ;
dark blot removed? 1 call upon the
officials of the City of Heppner to ac
cord this woman a "square deal," and
ask that she be allowed to appear be
fore the Court with witnesses
will disprove the unjust charge now
held ugainst her.
