Thursday, July 3, - 1913 The effort being put forth by the lone Commercial Club to in duce the parties interested to lo cate a colony of Scandinavian farmers in that vicinity is well worth the encouragement of all our citizens. Mr. N. P. Peterson of Portland, who was in Heppner the past week, is much interested in getting his countrymen located in Eastern Oregon, and he espec ially recommends to the mana gers of the Scandinavian Immi gration Bureau that they en courage their people to locate in Morrow county, and will use his efforts to get them to do so. Mr, Peterson is well posted on the various sections of the Northwest, and believes we have the best opening here of any place. Our lands are cheaper and their re turns are surer and quicker. He states that the majority of the people being interested through this source in locating in Oregon will have from $2000 to $3000 to invest as a starter. They are of the best type of Swedish and Danish farmers, thrifty, indus trious and frugal. They will be satisfied to eret along in a small way at first but they are stayers, and will come out prosperous in a few years. We hope to see large numbers of them located on the unused lands in the vicinity of lone, and then up this way there are a large number of big ranches that can be divided up, that are suitable to dairying and wheat raising and will make fine combination ranches for these people, and we can handle a large number of them. Let them come, Thev are welcome. The Portland business men are to raise a fund of $150, (XX) to get industries established and immi grants from northern Europe for the rest of the state. The Blue Mountain Eagle says, "No thank you we don t need them, east ern Oregon would rather have an immigration of Americans from Missouri, Illinois, Ohio. Indiania or none rather than the selected scum of northern Europe." We have a different idea of the im migrant from northern Europe ovt-r here in Morrow county and well we should have. The fann ies that have settled here after coming from that cold northern country have adapted themselves to conditions in a most satisfact ory way. They are thrifty and industrious and among the large settlement of these foreigners, not a single one of them has a mortgage attached to his farm. Better than that, the majority of them are accumulating wealth, of Kinnard McDanlel, fine boy. Q Mrs. Chas. Ham departed Sunday morning for Tacouia on business. And still we continue to receive fine rains and eveiybody is hanpy. They undoubtedly had a sood came of ball in Heppner but it was nothing to compare with the one plaved in Hardman. Gnorge Bleakman made a flving trip to Heppner Sunday in his auto. He took some of tbo Hardmanites in to see the ball game. Nick Leathers, Mack B'ddle and Bird Swift were out fiBhing last week. If you wish to hear some fish stories just mention it to Biddle. There is not much to write about this week as evervbody is doina noth ing but talk about the big crop that will be harvested here tliis year. Jake Young with his road rrew is doing some sood work on the Rock creeK road which will be a benefit to this pare of the county wheu finished. Earl Cramer, J. A. Gibbons and Sauire Bates went to Ditch creek Monday to spend a couple of davs fishing. There won't be any fish left in the creek when thev return. Jack Eads and son Victor and Geo. Cox of Monument were in town Sun day night. They left Monday in oora pany with Frank Cramer for lone. All of these gentlemen have some fast horses and expect to walk clT with some of the prizo money at lone on the Fourth. IONE. We ara all too busy to write items this week no bog to be excused this one time. Miss Woolery arrived in town last Tuesday with a brand new American automobile. A pretty nifty looking car. Hank Cramer's mare and Peterson's horse ran a lace Tuesday morning last for 8 purse of a hundred dollars, Cramer came out in the lead. Ihe latfst and most up to data weeder. and something new for Mor row County can be seen at work on the Lac McMurry ranch, on Rhea creek, an enterprising wheat grower. Alex Lindsay, Demnnnrrater. If arrangements can be made with the air man, a blrdseye view may be obtained of the weeder at work ou the McMutry ranch by the air ship cir cling Mat Halvorsen's Buttes. Banana Belt Will Lead. Charley Morev and AVt Finley, two farmers from the "Banana Belt" of Morrow county were Heppner visitors Monday, bsing witnesses before Judge Patterson on the fiunl proof of Fred Maxner, a neighbor. According to Mr. Morey the "Eanana Belt" will be the banner croD section of Morrow county this year. Wheat is now practically mads out that way, and it will bo an abundant crop free from weeds and of fine quality. Morey sayt lie has bluestem wheat that is now filling well with heads from five to seven inchex iu length, and so far this year J.e finds no ned for irriga tion. The raius have hit that section just rght. Now is the time of year to secure some of those pretty LAWNS and DIMITIES for hot weather wear. We can show you them in a great variety.
