You who cannot be pleased with this solendid Oregon climate are sure ly difficult to plese. Fluer weather this near Christmas when we all ex pected snow could not be desired. Tuesday is city election, a mayor, four aldermen aud a recorder are to be elected. Why don't the women come to the polls and show the men that they are at least appreciative of their newly Riven rights. The Home Mission Society wish to thank the people who so kindly at tended the bos party and program on last Tuesday night. About $35 was realized besides the splendid program and good time enjoyed by all. An interesting football game was played on Thanksgiving afternoon at the Lexington erounds. by Heppner versus our home team. Wo won by a score of 14 to 0. During the game, Rude, one of the local pJayers was rendered nnconsoious for a few min utes but from the way one of the Herjpner players was crippled we sur mise that the score in that respect was evened up. Say) all you who are foolishly planning and Worrying over what you are going to Rive this friend and that relative for Christmas, don't you know that yon can buy all those pretty gifts desired, at the Ladies Aid Bazaar on next Friday night. Be sides think of all those delicious eats and the fine program. We knew yon forgot, that 1b the reason we reminded you again. Hnyen. Thev had the misfortune of hreaking down just as they were srurtinu home and were compelled to upend the night in this vicinity. home very snbutantial improvements are to be made in the near futurn In onr school district. The directors have plnnned to dijr. and cement a cis tern and build a barn and wood bonne. These improvements have been needed for some titno. We are pleased to note that Ilei p nor will have macadamized streets Ic is good to know that there are some wide awake people in Morrow coontv. We hope to see some macadamized roads in Morrow county before many years. Now that the county is out of debt, we suggest that some per manent roads be built each year ontil we have completed the job. Other counties do, why not Morrow, many larmers in this section are stooking no on hogs. We believe we are safe in saying there will be 0 cat loads of hogs shipped from here during 1914. In our mind, shipping the grain to market by the hoa route is quite an improvement over Backing the grain and hauling it 20 miles to market. Besides, the first mentioned method has been proven more profit able. Another thing we consider would go nicely with the hog busines is a packing honse built and operated by the farmers of this section. Id this way yon can bacon your own hogs and market your own bacon an 1 lard at home. As it is you pay freight on yonr hogs to Portland. They are baconed there and shipped back here and sold on your local market. What is the use of paying freight both wsys when it could not only be saved but a nice profit made as well.

One ot the steps which must be taken in the J process of securing higher egg yield, is a careful culling oat of the lightest layers. Expert poultrymen state that the average hen in the United Slates lays about six dozen eggs per year. The records of a flock of forty bens, secured by use of the trap-nest, kept by the poultry department of the Oregon Agricultural College, show an average yield of 210 eggs per year. If it be a fact that the 72 eeg hen Days her way and returns some profit to her owner, the ben that lays three times as u.any eggs must be a very profitable fowl. While several thine are required to raise the general avergn of a flock to so high a standard of production, a very material increase may be secured by giving careful attontion to a few of thn moBt Important. One of these is culling oat the most unpro ductive hens. And the only way to be positive that the poorest and not the best layers are disDoed of is to keep individual records, which is done most satisfctorially by use of the trap nest. If the right choice is mado of the hens to be eliminated, the process is both moid and inexpensive. A cer tain nnmber of fowls is required for table use in the home and for the poultry market. But very little is pained by a haD-hazard selection of the hen for these purposes. Individual records, bS revealed by the trap-nest have been found by the Poultry de partment to be the only unfailing method of revealintr the unprofitable hen. And this method is earnestly reoommended to the poultrymen of Oregon that purprse to increase the averaee egg yield by culling out the noor liyers from the flock. 17T HI In the way of suitable presents for little folks, young people, and adults, we now have in stock an exceptionally Fine assortment of unusually well selected goods.
