local live stock supply

the local demand for meat.
These slaughtering and distributing
agencies fill a well defined but neces
sarily restricted place in the distribu
tion of the products of live stock.
But only packer like Swift &
Company, organized on a national
scale, are able to undertake the ser
vice that is more vitally important,
involving

live stock the producer may send
to market for slaughter.

ioing the boys and girls who are
engaged in the industrial club
work. Accompanied by the coun
ty agent he is making a home to
home visit, inspecting the work
of the various club members, en
couraging them and completing
the work started when he was in
the county a few weeks ago.
Morrow county has one of the
strongest clubs of any county in
Eastern Oregon, the list of those
enrolled and reporting is a splen
did indication that the boys and
girls of this county realize their
responsibility and the value in
increasing food production. The
boys' and girls' club work is be
ine emphasized throughout the
state more this year than ever
before, and the parents who can
see what their children are doing
in way of increasing food pro
duction cannot help feeling proud
ot the way in which they are
helping, and are lending them
encouragement in every way
possible.

Harvest Help Will be Needed
Business and professional men
of Heppner.'as well as of other
Morrow county towns will have
a chance of showing their patri
otism in a practical manner next
harvest according toCounty Ag
ncultural Agent Brown who says
the indications are tbat help will
be very scarce and that every
able bodied man will probably
be needed to help take care of the
big wheat crop now promised.
It is not expected that' these
men will close their stores, shops
and offices permanently during
the harvest season but it is ex
pected that all will be able to de
vote a portion of their time to
helping the neighboring farmers
save the wheat crop. Girls and
women, it is expected, will be
used as far as possible to handle
the necessary business in the
towns thus releasing everv man
possible for the harvest work.
Many business and profes
sional men in this county have
had farm experience and will
therefore prove valuable assist
ants to the farmers in time of
harvest stress. It is understood
the proposal is meeting with uni
versa! favor in the business and
professional circles of the vari
ous towns.
