teachers commissions, and engagfng great Artists to play Pianos at
fabulous sums, we are trying to eliminate. We are therefore work
ing with the manufacturers and wholesalers, on an expense sharing
campaign, to sell within this district the greatest number of pianos
at the least possible expense.
We are manufacturers agents for instruments of proven quality,
comprising Borne of the world's most famous makes.
Remember, your solution must be in our hands before June 30,
1915. This date has been made imperative by the manufacturers
themselves, and we have no authority to extend it.

Swap Bark Again.
A trade was made during the past
two weeks whereby Hugh Currin
purchased the alfalfa farm of Gus
Wilcox at Jordan Siding. After look
ing around for sometime to find a
place to move to with his family and
failing to get what he wanted either
at Heppner or lone, Mr. Wilcox de
cided that he wanted his farm back,
and offered Mr. Currin a neat ad
vance in price to deed It back to him.
Mr. Currin did this, and he is now
scouting around for a place for him
self and family to live in the mean
time. Houses to rent in Heppner
are out of the question at this time
and scarcely a day passes but this of
fice receives a call from some one
wanting a house to rent. Just what
it will be when school opens in the
Fall is only a matter of conjecture.
Mr. Currin is but one of many who
desire to take up their residence
here to take advantage of the school.

SEASON.
W. H. AYERS, Proprietor
C. A. Minor says the big rains dur
ing the week are just what the coun
try needs for all varieties of crops.
They have been a little hard on the
sheepmen who were just ready to
move their flocks into the mountains,
but are assured of abundant feed la
ter on. The wheat fields, appear to
be so well supplied with moisture
now that even a partial failure in
the crops can scarcely be expected.
Crop development in Morrow coun
ty the past few weeks has certainly
been wonderful.
THE EDITOR.
Consider the editor. He weareth
purple and fine linen. His abode is v
amongst the mansions of the rich.
His wife hath her limousine and his
first-born sporteth a racing car that
can hit her up in forty flat.
Lo! All the people breaketh their
necks to hand him money. A child
is born unto the wife of a merchant
In the bazaar. The physician getteth
ten golden plunks. The editor write
th a stick and a half and telleth the
multitude that the child tippeth the
beam at nine pounds. Yea. he lieth
' von as a centurion. And the proud
father giveth him a cremo.
Behold, the young one groweth up
and graduateth. And the editor put
teth into his paper a swell notice.
Y"a. a peach of a notice. He telleth
of the wisdom of the young woman,
and of her exceeding comliness. Like
unto the roses of Sharon is she and
her gown is played up to beat the
band. And, the dressmaker getteth
two score and four iron men. And
the editor getteth a note of thanks
from the S. G. G.
The daughter goeth a journey.
And the editor throweth himself on
the story of the farewell party. It
runneth a column, solid. And the
fair one remembered him from afar
with a picture postal card that cost
eth six for a Jitney.
Behold she returneth . and the
youth of the city fall down and wor
ship. She picketh one and Lo, she
picketh a lemon. But the editor cal
leth him one of our most promising
young men and getteth away with it.
And they send unto him a bid to the
wedding feast and behold, the bids
are fashioned by Muntgummery Haw
buck,, in a far city.
Flowery arid long is the wedding
notice which the editor printeth. The
minister getteth ten bones. The
groom standeth the editor off for a
twelve-month subscription.
All flesh is grass and in time the
wife is gathered Into the silo. The
minister getteth his bit. The editor
printeth a death notice, two columns
of obituary, three lodge notices, a
cubit of poetry, and a card of thanks.
And he forgetteth to read proof on
the head, and the darned thing Com
eth out, "Gone to her Last Roasting
Place."
And all that are akin to the de
ceased jumpeth on the editor with
exceeding great jumps. And they
pulleth out their ads and cancelleth
their subscriptions and they swing
the hammer unto the third and
fourth generations.
Canst thou beat It. Stayton Mall.
Forest Notes.
News print paper has been made by
the Forest Service laboratory from
24 different woods, and a number
compare favorably with standard
spruce pulp paper.
The Forest Service is cooperating
with 54 railroads, mining companies,
and cities in making tests of wood
en ties, timbers, poles, piling and
paving blocks which have been given
preservative treatments.
In 1895 there were 15 wood pre
serving plants operating in the Uni
ted States; in 1914 the number had
increased to 122, representing all
types of plant.
The 1914 figures, Based upon re
ports from 94 plants, show that the
total number of cubic feet of ma
terial treated with preservatives was
159,582,639 cubic feet. This was an
increase of 5,968,751 cubic feet over
the total for 1913. Of this increase,
109,980 cubic feet was made up of
piling, and 3,577,751 more cross ties
were handled than during the pre
vious year.
During 1914, nearly eighty mil
lion gallons of creosote were used by
the preserving plants of the United
States.
Hermiston Dairy Show is Strongly
Endorsed.
Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
vallis, June 14. In a dairy meeting
that represented every section of the
Hermiston country all the dairymen
were unanimous in favor of holding
their annual dairy show, says the
Hermiston Herald of recent date.
Great enthusiasm prevailed among
the dairy and hog men in the matter
of making the 1915 dairy and hog
show better than ever. The dairy
show officers are F. B. Svvayze, H. M.
Straw and C. S. McNaught.
The exact date of the next show
was not announced but it will be late
enough to permit entrymen time to
get their stock in shape for the show
and their work well enough along to
allow Dlentv of time tn atlonrl tlio
show and get the full benefit of the
exnimt and sales.
Swine on Dairy Farms.
"Swine are particularly adapted to
dairy farms where the skim milk
can be made to fill in the gap be
tween the weanine and ffttteninir ner-
iod," says G. R. Swanson, swine spec
ialist at the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege. "With the exception of high
grade dairy heifer calves, pigs will
Day a better nrlrn fnr old tn mill tlmn
any other class of stock, and pigs do
not come very largely into competi
tion with dairy cows for the products
of the farm. Pigs can use but very
nine or tne rougher forages on the
farm, which form the Imsls if the
ration of the dairy cow, and the fat
tening pig is a large consumer of con
centrates. In fact, under most intel
ligent svstems nf fflmilnp' lii-a anil
dairy cows on the same farm will pay
Deuer man will either the one or the
other of these kinds of stock raised
exclusively on the same farm. The
exception to this rule is found in lo
calities where milk condenseries have
been deveiooed so that there lire n
few by-products of the dairy business
which can oe utilized in pig feeding."
