CHIDE Oil, DIP ONTROLS
VKK.MIX PESTS OX SWIXK.
Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
vallis, April 14. Crude oil dips are
best for control of lir e, other vermin
anil skin -diseases of swine, according
to experiments conducted by the Ore
gon Agricultural College Animal Hus
bandry department. One part oil to
two parts water Is the strength rec
ommended. The infested animals
should be made to dive well into the
solution, swim across the dipping vat
and walk out at the further end,
when they will be well covered with
a coat of oil strong enough to kill
lice and nits but not strong enough to
injifre the animal. The mixture is
not emulsified.
It is recommended that the animals
be dipped twice anually or whenever
they become infested. All animals
brought onto the farm should be dip
ped, the best time being a bright
warm day.
The vat may be of wood or galvan
ized iron, wide enough to prevent
wedging and deep enough to permit
complete submergence of the animal.
A force pump may be used to spray
the animals with or the material may
be applied with a brush. If these ap
plications are made in the pig's sleep
ing quarters they will serve to kill
some lice not on the animal.
It is essential that the pigs be not
crowded through the vats or dipped
into the solutions. The pens should
be kept clean after dipping.
Sheep dip is also recommended and
used by the College Animal Husband
ry department.
Freak Chickens Are Hatched.
J. H. Edwards was in the city on
Friday to celebrate the anniversary
of his birth; that event had occurred
the day previous but Mr. Edwards
was otherwise engaged and could not
get to town. He never fails to get
to town on his natal day and to re
mind his friends that he has passed
another mile stone in life's journey
and he is always greeted with their
good wishes for many returns of the
day. He related to us a "chicken"
story which contains a phenomena.
Mr. Edwards is raising pure white
chickens, his hens being White Leg
horns and his rosters are of the
White Rock variety. They "set"
an incubator with ISO eggs from the
white chickens and in due course of
time they were hatched, and it
transpired that out of the bunch of
young chicks, 17 are black. John
is puzzled to know where the black
chicks came from and he thinks this
is a problem for the poultry experts
to wrestle with.
Superb Floral Center
Portland's 1915 floral center will
be a paragon of beauty, and one of
the most superb ever planned. It will
cover two of the park blocks and will
include eight immense beds of bloom
to surround a mammoth center piece;
illuminated promenade, sixteen Im
mense exhibition beds' of choice
blooming plants and sixteen booths
in which sixteen communities will
exhibit for prizes. Professional flow
er growers of the city will make an
exhibit of the choicest roses ever as
sembled out of doors in the world.
PLANET EARTH GROWS OLD.
Through Loss of Heat and Moisture
This .Mundane Sphere Will Grad
ually Grow Uninhabitable.
University of Oregon, Eugene, Apr.
11. This is early afternoon in the
life of planet Earth. Heat will grad
ually grow less and cold become
greater. Moisture will slowly dis
appear. Atmospheric conditions will
change.
When the loss of heat h'as proceed
ed to a degree where all the earth
has a temperature below freezing.
plant life will disappear, and without
plants animals must also cense
Mercury and Venus, planets nearer
the sun than the earth, have already
reached this condition.
These are among statements made
In a lecture on "A Theory of World
Formation," delivered by Orin F.
Stafford, professor of chemistry at
the State University before the Uni
versity assembly. For 200,000 years,
however, the earth will remain much
the same as now, Professor Stafford
comfortingly says.

Committed to Asylum.
Adolph Martness, a young man
who has been at work for R. F. Wig
lesworth on his Butter creek ranch
for some time past, was brought to
Heppner on Thursday evening last
and examined as to his sanity. He
was found to be of unsound mind at
the present time and on Friday was
taken to the Eastern Oregon Asylum
at Pendleton. It is believed that the
young is suffering only from a tem
porary derangement, ana that a
course of proper treatment for a few-
weeks at the hospital should fully re
store his mental balance. His afflic
tion is not of a violent nature.
Has Purchased Large Tractor.
D. E. Gilnian purchased through
Vaughan & Sons, of Heppner the past
week, a large Case tractor which was
taken out to the Andrews place north
east of Lexington and will be used
there in doing a part of the farm
work. The machine is one of the
best put out by this company and has
a draw-bar capacity of twenty horses
It will pull six plows, and besides is
a valuable machine for much other
work on the farm. Mr. Gilnian has
been trying different styles of trac
tors and believes that he has found
what he has been looking for in this
Case machine. An agent of the com
pany took the tractor out to the An
drews farm on Friday.
We have a fine new Bungalow, a
good barn and two lots in Lents, Ore

Sheriff McDuffee and Marshal Mc-
Craw apprehended a couple of men
in Heppner on Thursday evening last
that were wanted at Prineville on a
charge of burglary. Upon being
notified from Prineville that the men
were headed this way, the officers got
busy and located them at Lone Hock,
hut on their way to Heppner, so our
sleuths were prepared to land them
upon their arival in the city, even
though it was after dark when they
got here. The men were taken to
the county jail and locked up. They
Rave their names as Ward and O'
Kelly, the latter being a reputed bud
man and implicated in numerous
holdups, while Ward is a young man
not having the appearance of a hard
ened criminal. Sheriff E. B. Knox,
of Crook county was notified at once
of the capture and he arrived on
Saturday evening and took the cap
tives home with him on Sunday, they
being the men he was looking for.
