Thursday, March 21 1912 A reliable friend of this paper residing at lone, has been keening tab on the poultry aud egg business of that little oily for he past year and his figures are interesting reading. There was a total of 39,048 dozen egs shipoed to the cntside market bes'des an estimated amount of 3,360 dozen sold by the local dealers to their city and country trade. This does not take into account what was purchased by the people direct from the producer but taking the figures as given above and niultplving this by the average price paid 25 cents per dozen and vou have the neat sum of $10,827 which was disbursed among the poultry raisers for the eggs alone. There was also shinned from lone during this period 20,000 of chickens, turkeys, geese and ducks which were sold at the average price of 12j cents per pound, adding 2500 more to. the account and making a total of $13,227 realized by these people on their poultry for the past year. As stated before this does not, of course repre sent the full amount realized, but it does give an estimate of what the industry has meant to the people 'of our neighboring city and the farmers who trade there. The poultry indus try in Morrow county is only in its infancy and when we begin to get into the business as we should these figures will be greatly multpliied lone has been the principal shippng point so far and the people down tha way are beoooppg more and more in terested in this Hue, just as they are all over the country. It should not be muny years before Morrow county will be recognized as leaning every other section of the state in the pro duction of poultry and eggs. We have the climate can raise the feed, and all the conditions necessary to the success of the business are hern and our people wiljl not be slow in taking hold of this industry from now on. Ia the meantime prepare for the big show of the Morrow County Poultry Association this coming win ter. The tragic death of a bright, prom ising: boy at Lexington this week, at the hands of a school-mate, caused a severe shock to the entire coramun itv. It was indeed sad, and not the least unfortunate feature touchiug the tragedy is the apoareut indiffer ence of the lad who is responsible for the taking off of a fellow beiug, There seems to be but little value placed on the life of a human being by too many people these days, and this wculd appear from all the facts that we gather, tj be a case of crim inal recklessness. A boy who has reached the age of 15 yeais is certain ly responsible for his acts, and to do a ttvng of this nature shows that he is devoid of a proper conception of the value of human life, is a danger ous person to be at large, and should be dealt with accordingly. On the one hand a borne is bereft of a bright and prom.sing boy; on the other, the parents have been brought to the deepest gref and suffering because uf the thoughtless action of one of their naniber. Let the bovs of iur com munity take a lesson from this sad occurrence and have a thought always for the little fellows with whom they come in contact at scnooi ana else where. Hon. W. R. Ellis is in Heppner looking uo his old-time friends aod repairing political fence?. This paper mentioned last week that it was our opinion that of all the present aspir ants for congressional honors from this district, Mr. Ellis stands at the head. By reason of his long years of service in Congress he is "on to the ropes," and easily takes a place of leader-hip. No doubt the other gentlemen se'eking the Domination are excellent men, but they are new and any one of them would have to spend the greater part of his term in getting shaped up to do any actual work. Mr. Ellis because of his experience, will not have to do this. He was awlavs a quiet but persistent worker for Ore gon's interests and accomplished much for the state during his terms of service at Washington. The office of Commissioner is an important one and should be filled by a man who is conversant with the needs of the county. M. A. Bates, of Hardman has announced himself a can didate for nomination to this office on the republican ticket' He has been a resident of the south end of the county for a long number of years and during a greater part of this time hag served the people of his precinct as justice of tha peace. Mr. Bates is well qualified for the new office to which he aspires , and it now Ioors as though he would be nominated without J opposition.

Bulletin will be sent out from the County Supreiutendeut'f office this week to teachers, punils and parents. These bulletins should be read and preserved. There are not enough to furuisth a copy to each pupil, but it is hope! that every family may have one. I have a few copies left, so if you fail to secure a copy or the use of a copy, let me know, and I will send you one. - These bulletins contain ioformaion concerning the industrial education contests. The contestants for the county prizes will be divided into two classes; these over 12 years old will constitute Class A and those 12 and under. Class B. There will he four prizes for chickens, the best three, in each class. The prizes will be worth $5, $, $2, and $1. For the other articles, there will be three prizes in each class, and they will be worth at least $3, $2, and $1. There will be contests for the following: Pij;s, pet lamb, potatoes, (pltte of five), field corn (five stalks) on irrigated land, field corn (fire stalks) on non-irrigted laud, squash, bread, butter, can of ftuit. glass of jelly, hand-made apron, water-melon, piece of furniture, anl grain selec tions. There will be a special prize of $1000. for the best article on "Back to the Farm", by pupil under 15 years of age The committees have been appoin ted to solicit the prizes. Howevre, if you desire to offer any prize do net wait for the committees to call upnn you, but send word to the committees or to the undersigned. In the list of prizes for the State Fair there are pigs, chickens, sherp, calves, ponies, floors, furniture, eewhg ruachiues, tools, incubators, end hcoks, donated by persons interested. . If you prefer to give cash, it will be used to the best advantage in the prize list. Merchants may prefer to give due bills for so much merchan dise, allowing the winner to select what he likes from their stock. It is thought that the best time for the contest in this county will be the waek prior to the Pendleton fair. Let every boy and girl in the county enter one or mote of these contexts. Even if you should not win a prizn, you will learn something worthwhile and may produce something of suffi nitent value to pay you many times over for your trouble. There may be a number of special prizes for other products not mention ed in the regular list. Anyone desir ing to offer special prizes should notify the committee or ma at an early date.
