COUNTY SCHOOL NOTES 25 From the Gazette, March 26, 1891. Albert Ayers is over from Butter creek this week. Mayor T. J. Matlock is out rust ling with his sheep. Henry Padberg came up with the Lexington delegation Monday. Mrs. Andy Stevenson and family moved out to the ranch, on Skinner's Fork, early this week. Geo. Lund has recovered from a month's sickness. Since his return from the East recently, he has been stopping at Thos. Read's. Eight Mile Items: We congratu late Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Young- and hope they may have a great deal of pleasure with their little boy, their only son. lion. Henry Blackman returned Monday from Portland, where he has been under a physician's care for some weeks. His friends will be grat ified to learn that he has almost en tirely recovered. Andrew Reaney reports the grain on his hill ranch looking well. He says it is as green as a meadow, and can be seen 6 or 6 miles away. Late freezes nipped the blades of his grain a little, but it amounts to nothing. Stock came through in excellent con dition in Andrew's neighborhood. Mike Kenny, Press Thompson and W. E. Elliott complain that "grubs" are working on their sheep. It is a new thing, working on the sheep's head, and when once attacked the animal is sure to die, the insect not stopping operations until the brain is reached. Mr. Elliott has lost 100 head from this cause. Jas. P. Rhea and C. A. Rhea made a trip to Portland last week. They re port the place flooded with those who wish to dispose of cattle, therefore prime beef is not worth over four cents. While there the visitors met Chas. Younggren, D. W. Kinnaird, Holmes Hayman, Murray Beardslcy and Jlmmie Clark, which shows that a fair sprinkling of Heppnerites are in the metropolis. By Supt. S. E. Notson. Miss Pearlie Cavanaugh teaches the school in District No. 34. Tiie en rollment is 16. This school is well equipped, properly lighted, and pro vided with suitable furniture. If the attendance is kept up to standard to the end of the term, all the points for a standard rural school will be met. In District No. 26, Miss Vernus Young and 23 pupils are doing good work. This school has a nine months' term this year. Some strips of bur lap have been placed upon the walls upon which some excellent displays of work are fixed. In joint district No. 55, the en rollment is also 23. Miss Minnie McClure is the teacher. This school has some of the finest framed pic tures found in any of the rural schools. The recent high water spoil ed the appearance of the school grounds to a considerable extent, but the pupils are putting them in good condition again. Miss Helen Gould is again in charge of the school In District No. 54. The enrollment is 16. The build ing has been painted and presents a very pleasing appearance. This is one of the best rural buildings in the county. The pupils have a nice lot of plants growing in a box. Some of the pupils are planning to do some pro ject work. Miss Ethel Hansen teaches in Dis trict No. 27. A new teacher's desk has been ordered. The pupils of this chool are greatly interested in a "dry farm" garden project. They expect to try some experiments along this line. Since the jack rabbits have been eliminated, there will be a bet ter chance for this kind of work, though the squirrels must be fought. State Supt. Churchill announces that he has made arrangements whereby teachers who have not se cured the Palmer diploma in penman ship may enroll again and go ahead with the work in writing. He urges every teacher to take up this work. It means a little effort, but it will pay the teher well I jr her work and the pupils of the State will be greatly benefitted. Let me suggest that school boards insist that teachers earn this Palmer diploma. The work in writing will be infinitely better. Harry P. Huffman Writes to Enter prise Record-Chieftan. Writing from his present location near Heppner, Harry P. Huffman tells something of conditions in that section, say in?' "With us fejd and winter came out about neck and neck after a long,' hard race, but without much damage. There was some hay ship ped into Heppner but no great amount. But the savior of the stock was the green grass growing under the last snow; so on the arrival of the chinook the stock was taken from almost full feed to the range. We are feeding only a small amount of stock here now; will turn out 600 head of cattle about March 22. That is all that will be run on this range, with one b .nd of sheep. "This is sure a fine ranch and range here, but badly run down. There are 16,000 acres all together in this outfit, 12 miles south of Hepp ner on Rhea creek, a fine fishing stream that runs between the house and barn. Margaret (Mrs. Huffman) likes it here, and she and the baby are strong and healthy. We have been farming now for the last ten days and as I have only one man it is going pretty slowly, but we'll have a full crew next week. We have in a garden already but are still waiting for it to come up. Give everybody my regards." Enterprise Record-Chieftan. Mr. Huffman is the new forman on the Stanfield ranch, south of this city. He formerly lived in Enterprise and has a brother engaged in the stock raising business in Wallowa county- When y. you need two-vision lenses be sure to get KRYPTOK LENSES 1V Worn hy over 250,000 propM For in all other two-vision lenses there is a line or scam between the near and far vision portions that makes the wearer look less than his best, and unmistakably brands him or her with a sign of age.
