Heppner boasts of graded streets and crosswalks that are really cross walss. Under the present administration of city affairs more improvements have been made than were made in the Drevinns twenty years, (.luce befbre in twenty vpurs time the streets were graded and a fjeijeral building of side walks and improvement of property was prevelent over the entire town. This wave of improvetiieut took place in 1902 and until the present ad ministratiou the people have bten con tented to allow things to drift. A towii is just what its ppople make it. Hence, Heppner is jnst what its citi zetis want it to be. The building of the High school is a monument to the school board and to the peoplo of Hecpner. Good schools are a eom munity's best asset and the more schools Henoner can secure the better the town will benome. But the town in general must be kept up to a standard. No man wants to settle down in a community where the dust from the streets rises in a cloud at every little gust of wind and then settles down into the home, cany ing with it disease and filth. Nor doest he country man care to come to the town to tend his children to school where the children are forced to wade through mud to get to and from the school. These loxnrieg can be had in the country at toe district schoo's. Dirt streets and board sidewalks are not an inducement to those who are seeking culture and refinement to locate in a community. The novelist likes to write sentimental stories about the tumbled down villages and the imblic revels in the discription thereof but living in a tumbled down village is different from reading of one and the family man today wants conven ience. There are hundreds of towns in California. Oreeon, Washington and other western states, no larger than Heppner which advertise caved atreest paved walks, complete sewerage and full course high schools,, cariving manual training and domestic science. Thes conveniences were brought about by bond issue. These towns are grow ire steadi v. Thev have no more natural resources than Heppuer has, but their people are rot afraid to look into the future. Property is not too high in Hepo nor, proviiing the city gives its people something in return, but at present property in Heppner or any other town that is content tu stand still is no more valuable than ic will produce. Spur, lexiia, was built from a bleak prairie to a town of 900 souls over night. Paved street, paved pide walks and sewerage did it. Spnr sits in the heart of a big cattle ranch, but today it has 2,.'j00 thrifty people. In the earlv spring of 199 it was Brazing land and rart of the Spur Cattle Company's holdings. Taxes are higher in these communites but the people are getting something for their money. Municipal ituDnvements are just as valuable to the property owner as direct improvement of individual prop erty. 'if what value is an alfalfa field in the heart cf the Sahara deset? Heopne has the rock and the sand to build good steets and do it cheaply. Thousands of other towns Rre forced to pav freight on these materials. Great cities are built on bonded indpbtedness. Great corporations are made the same way and great com monwealths erow t) perfection throrfgh the same channels. All over the United States the states anil counties are building macadam highways. These roads are better than any street in Heppner. The roads are built through the means of bond issues and the coming generation will help pay for the conveniences they are to enjoy A bond issue to pave Main, May, Chase and Gale streets should be the first thing Heppner people should consider. Then sewerage and the rest will fellow. When t lie Morrow county court honse was built a certain stockin raised an awful fuss. When the new iiicn school was ouiic tins same (stockman und city pr perty owner hollered again, but today he is in Portland offering Heppner and Mr,r row countv property for sain. He talks louder of the court house and the school building than any other asset. He has found what the man seeking a location wants. n O 0 4 Owing to the backward season we find that we are overstocked on low cut and half shoes and O in order to make room for our fall stock are almost giving shoes away. we Men's and Boy's LOT Xo. 1, Special. $1.00 Pair.

The fact that onions frnm Texns, potatoes from California find egas and poultry from points outside of Ormori are being received in Portland in car load lota while the farmer in the irmiifdiate vicinity of the city, as well as those tributary to the railioads leading to this market, cannot find a market for their produce at any price has led the Portland Realty Board to actively take up the question of es tablishing public markets where gar deners and farmer may dispose of their podncts direct to the consumer with great benefit to buth. It is stated that the fact farmers cannot sell their own crops in Portland with out a license, and the fui'ther fact that the commission men will not buy from him except at their own prices, is causing many farmers to allow fruits and vegetables to go to waste lather than dispose of them at a loss. You will have to hurry before your size is gone. 1 no JJULC on Bros, O " V?nr ffoleprapfffase: and ppd fhe ftend" Attention has recently been called, by the Oregon Agricultural College, to the fact that many farmers who are so unfortunate as to have hav in jured or spoiled by rain are making the mistake of either burning it in the field or allowing it to rot in pilea. It is stated that spoiled clover or al falfa hay ie worth $8 50 to 10 00 per ton as a fertilizer if evenly spread over the fi;ld3 and plowed under, and that every ton of hay so worked into the soil is approximately worth four tens of fresh niannre. A ton of clover hay contains 40 pounds of nitrogen,! pounds of phosphorus and 30 pounds of potash, which, if purchased in the open market would cost the farmer about $10.50, and as olover and vetch i are yielding about 2i tons per acre I this season, the plowing under of the ppoiled hay adds a fertilizer value of not less than S25 to each acre.
