Food News
The Food Administrator anti
cipated some objections on the
part of farmers to disposing of
their surplus wheat, but so far
little objection has been made.
Dealers are authorized to pur
chase the surplus flour which
people desire to turn back at the
market price, and then report
the purchase to Mr. Houser at
Portland, and the Government
will pay for the flour.
W. L. Barlow, of Eight Mile,
traded his white fllour for sub
stitutes at lone. This is practi
cal patriotism.
The domestic science class of
the public school aroused much
interest in the humble "wheat
savers" by their displays in the
windows of our grocers last Sat
urday. Take their advice and eat
more potatoes and less wheat.
There will be plenty of sugar
for canning purposes, but the
people are urged to continue to
limit consumption to threepounds
per person per month, or less.
If each one of us eats one pound
less this month there will be
100,000,000 pounds more for can
ning purposes.
S. E. Notson,
County Chairman.
Child Drowned in Willow Creek
Little Grace Brown, two and
one-half year old daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. C L. Brown, was
drowned in Willow creek Sunday
morning about 11 o'clock. Mrs.
Brown 'was busy getting the old
er children ready for Sunday
school when little Grace went out
to play and evidently went di
rectly to the creek and fell into
the stream when no one was in
sight The mother soon missed
her and a search was instituted,
which resulted in finding the
body in the creek near the Hepp
ner flouring mill. It is presumed
the child fell in the water near
the May street bridge, as she
had been in the habit of playing
there with older children.
The funeral was held Monday
afternoon at 2:30 from the Fed
erated church, Rev. Noyes con
ducting the service. Interment
was in the Masonic cemetery.

Bruce Dennis for National Commit
teeman Bruce Dennis, one of the best
known newspapermen in eastern
Oregon, is a caudidatj) for Re
publican National Committeeman
and in support of that candidacy
it is urged by his friends that at
the Republican National Conven
tion hi 1912, to which he was a
delegate, he followed the instruc
tions of the Republican voters of
Oregon as expressed at the pri
maries of that year by vot'ng for
Roosevelt for the presidential
nomination. At the primaries
in that year the Republicans of
Oregon voted as follows on the
three presidential candidates:
Roosevelt. 28.905; LaFolletle,
22,491; Taft. 20,517.
Mr. Dennis followed the ex
press wish of his constituents
and voted for Roosfvelt. Mr.
Williams, who was then National
Committeeman, ignored the pri
mary vote in his own stale and
supported Taft. A 'disrupted
party, Mr. Dennis' friends point
out was the result, and the con
sequent election in Oregon since
that time of numerous democrats
to national and high state posi
tions. Regardless of the political as.
pect of the matter the fact that
Mr. Dennis is one of the most
competent men in his profession
in the state and of high ability as
au organizer ami administrator,
will commend him to the mem
bers of his party who want things
done in a business-UKu maimer.
