PATTISON, E&tor and Publisher Entered at the Heppner, Oregon, Postoffice u second-clans Matter Terms of Subscription S&fci One Year $2.00 Six Months $1.00 Three Months ..$0.50 THE EXPENSE OF GOVERNMENT There is food for thought in the recent statement of Postmaster General New that practically every stalte in the Union is suffering from overindulgence. States have been displaying a tendency to make greater and greater expendi tures and to call upon the people to pay the bill of govern ment. Oregon is by no means an exception to that rule and while there are many things we should not dq without there should at the same time be some way of reducing the state's indebtedness and balancing its budget without tax ing people to the breaking point. Some improvements we must have. Money spent for good roads is more in the nature of an investment than an expenditure. The same is true of many other things, but xtj the same time it appears that an effort should be made to reduce financial outgo where it may properly be reduced. Great public works are a fine talking point for those who try to bring in more people and more capital, but their ef fect is spoiled by equally great taxes. One expensive thing that could be done away with is politics. It is natural for people to be divided over ques tions and to form intp parties to put forward their ideas. But there is another sort of politics that cannot be dis missed so lightly. It is the game of political preferment, the practice of filling jobs with persons only partly capable of holding them and of creating places lor the nenenmen 01 men in power. Jesseph. "Actual rehabUitaUon of the disabled veteran finally rests with employers of the district. Un less the men are placed In positions for which tney trained at the expense of the government, their training will have been of little benefit and the ex-ervlce man will not be able to take his rightful place In the com mercial world and society. So far, employers of this district have been willing in the matter of supplying employment opportunities for ourvo cationa Itraining graduates. I have reason to believe that further and increased co-operaiion on their part may be expected." Mr. Jesseph urged that employers who mayi have positions to fill dur ing the next few months should get In touch with the nearest office of the Veterans, bureau immediately by letter, telephone or personal contact Bureau offices are located in Seattle Portland, Spokane and Boise.

Portland Telegram. t Glided by a correspondent who complained of the un reliability of the weather forcasts as published in that ex cellent newspaper, the Oregonian agrees with the cor respondent, denounces the weather bureau and declares lhat no more will it publish the stuff. Now, if our es teemed contemporary, wants a really reliable weather service it has only to apply to the Herald and we will be glad to divide1 up with our big brother and1 give it the real thing in weather prognostications. As a reliable weather forecaster the Herald stands in a class by itself. With our three weather prophets I?ill Stewart, who is on intimate terms with the Chinook wind and the Moon; hum Gordon, .who reads the stars as readily as a young girl does her first love letter, and Sam Notson who adheres stricly to the plan of doing his forecasting the morning after, we never make a mistake unless something goes radically wrong with the solar system. 1 Dr. Frederic Cook, he of Arctic fame, has found that prevaricating about the north pole and lying about fake oil utock, are two mighty different matters. When Doc lied about finding the pole he made himself ridiculous. When 'lie lied about his fake stock and victimized widows, or phans and other gullibles he drew a 14-year jail sentence. Perhaps he can find some comfort in these! words used by the court in passing sentence: "Kirst in history we had Ananius, then Machiavelli and the oth century has pro duced Dr. l'Ycderic A. Cook." So, after all these years, Doc has finally made the hall of fame. pu Reckless auto drivers are a nuisance and a menace to the die and so also are reckless av walkers, reckless noys on bicycles and reckless school girls who seem to delight in deliberately getting in the way ot approaching cars just Jor the fun of' making the driver stop to keep from striking them. 1 More common sense is needed on both sides. atSITlOXS ASKED TO KK- HAIUI.ITVIED VKTEKAXS " With tho coming of cold weather and a resulting decrease in employ ment, employers of this district are urged by L.

She is M-506, a barred rock from a family of noted layers. "The achievement Is not a freak but a logical result of breeding fcr increased production," says A. G. Lunn, head of the poultry depart ment. Her mother laid 600 eggs in the first three years, and her sire's moth er 283 in the first year. She has but one full sister owned by the college, with a record of 236 eggs and three full weeks to go. Her granddam laid 303 eggs her first year. M-506 was hatched March 14, 1922, and laid her first egg Novem ber 21, when 253 days old. Her eggs average 23 1-2 ounces a dozen. To tal egg production is more than three times the average annual production of the country. The college experiment station is now working on the project of ex tending the profitable life of the layer. Renewal of the flock is a heavy cost in modern egg production. Hens are generally considered un profitable after two full years of laying, and are sent to the block. The college has produced eight hens that averaged more than 1000. eggs in five years, and 34 that pass ed that mark in their natural life time. It has this stock to work on in breeding up race1 a of heavy long distance layers. Thomson Bros. OUR STORE is head quarters for seasonable merchandise.
