HEPPHER 25 YEARS AGO From the Gazette of April 2, 1891 On last Sunday night. Marshal Rasmus raided Sam Lee's wash house, capturing Sam Lee and thr other Celestials who were whiling away tne monotonous hours in that elegant pastime, denominated "hit ting the bamboo." All but Sam Lee were put in the city Jail, he giving bail for his appearance Monday morn ing. 'Hie marshal has an abundance of evidence, as he not only caught tne Chinamen smoking opium, but filled the recorder's office full sot pipes, lamps, "Eneshe" and other paraphernalia. The three Chinamen that were jailed Sunday evening pleaded guilty under the ordinance on opium smoking, and not having tne money to pay their fines, were returned for Bate keening. Sam. how ever, fought the case, with Gov. Rhea as counsel, and succeeded In proving the worthlessness of the ordinance prohibiting opium smoking. Sam was arrested, however, under another or dinance, but a Jury decided that it did not hold good in his case, so Sam and all his relatives were liberated. Show us a farmer in Morrow coun ty and we will show you a man who is "getting ahead of the hounds." Re member that Morrow county raises more wheat per acre the driest of seasons, than one of the best middle states. But those Eastern farmers raise pork, vegetables, etc., and make every nickle count. They labor six days in the week and labor hard, too They have no time to loaf, and when they go to town to do a little busi ness its all done in one day, and then they are back at work again. Ex travagance Is a greater enemy to our country than anything else.

Ora Adkins of Rhea creek was transacting business in this city Monday. Word came to our neighborhood that five hundred Indians were camp ed at Arlington, on their way to kill the people at Condon and take po esession of the town.

Twenty odd hard working Scan dinavians arrived here recently to locate homes and grow up with the country. They will stop over in the Gooseberry and Eight Mile sections Some of them are men of means.

Tillard arrived Monday from the East and may locate here. Time to Spray. The time of the year has arrived when spraying of trees is in order. We publish herewith some directions for spraying which have been issued from the State Agricultural College. Spraying has become necessary on account of scale and fungus diseases. When the tips of the leaves are just emerging an application of lime and sulphur and blackleaf-40 mixed will clean up the orchard of apple and pear trees In good shape. Peaches plums, prunes and cherries should be sprayed with Bordeaux mixture. Pear trees should be carefully ex amined for blight and all diseased parts cut out. Care must be taken to sterilize all tools before cutting into healthy wood after working on blighted trees. Formula for Bordeaux mixture Copper sulphate 6 pounds, quick lime 6 pounds, water 50 gallons. Formula for lime sulphur Ground sulphur 100 pounds; lime, unslaked, 60 pounds; water 50 gallons. Slake the lime, mix the sulphur with a little water, add it to the lime, then add water and boil the mixture for thirty minutes. Allow it to clear and settle and then use the clear liquid. For spring Bpraying dilute the stock solution to 15 parts water. Then add one pint of Bluckfeet-40 to each 150 gallons of the lime and sulphur spray. R. Stephens of Pendleton visited the fore part of tne week at the home of his mother, Mrs. P. A. Ste phens in South Heppner.
