OREGON THEUE 1 CAR FLOCKS INCREASED BV F. W. FALCONER. Buys 23.0(H) Sheep and Sells 14,000 Wether Lambs, Keeping The Ewes. Fred W.Falconer gold 14,000 weth er lambs last week and at the same time increased his own flocks by close to 18,000 ewes. Part of the weiher lambs he sold were of his own rais ing, and part he had Just bought of oiner growers. The increase in his herds of ewes was accomplished by holding his own . ewe lambs and buying about 13,000 more. Thus fie is prepared to begin next year as one of the largest dock masters in Oregon. The wether lambs sold consisted Of 5000 of Mr. Falconer's own raising, sold to C. G. Brown; and over 9000, bought from various owners, and sold to R. N. Stanfleid, represented here last week .by his .brother, Robert Stanfleid. These 90,00 were the wethers cut from a total of 20,000 lambs which Mr. Falconer purchased from the fol lowing: Waahtucna Land & Livestock Co., 2500. Harry Bartholomew of Stanfleid, 2500. T. H. Morelock, 2600. Pearson & Johnson of Pendleton, whose flocks are In the, mountains near Looking Glass, 5000. D. & M. Co., 5000. J. Ray Johnson, 1600. The remainder came from smaller lots. The first delivery will be made September 17, when the Pearson & Johnson wethers will be loaded at Looking Glass. Another shipment will be made October 3. The lambs are not very heavy this fall, but they are plump and fat as could be wished. They will mean extra choice meat for the epicures of the eastern cities, where they will find their ultimate market. While prices are not made public, the prevailing quotations put lambs at four times the price of a few years ago, say 1913. Mr. Falconer was anxious to get more ewes to enlarge his flocks, and accomplished his end by buying whole bands and then sell ing off the wethers. As stated, he also has bought 3000 H old ewes, the sellers being Mr. Bar tholomew and scattered local grow ers. The amount Involved in all his purchases is in the neighborhood of $250,0 00. Enterprise Record-Chieftain. New Miller Arrives. D. J. Shelleck has arrived in the city to take charge of the position as head miller with the Heppner Milling Company. Mr. Shelleck is a miller of many I years experience, having been in the employ of the Sperry Flour Mills the past few years. The Sperry Mills are among the largest producers of flour in the world. Mr. Shelleck just recently resigned his position with the Sperry Mills at Creston, Wash. He is a family man and his family arrived Tuesday even ing to join him here. The Heppner Milling Company ex pects to start grinding flour in the near future and work will begin next week in putting the mill in shape for the season's run. Tom Brennan returned the first of the week from an extensive trip over the Northwest. Mr. Brennan visited in Portland and Seattle and went on an excursion trip to Vancouver, B. C. This trip was made in company with Carl Rhea and Claud Sloan of Echo. Mr. Brennan says they met a number of Canadian soldiers who were just returning from the battle fronts of Europe and they were all anxious for the day to arrive when they could return to active service. These sol diers, from their own statements, have been taking on the brunt of the fighting and have participated In some of the bloodiest battles of the war. Mr. Brennan was gone from Heppner just a month and he said every day of his traveling was filled with Interest and pleasure. Chas. Groshen, young son of Mr. and Mrs. Victor Groshen of this city arrived home Sunday from New Jersey where he was recently given his discharge on account of his feet breaking down. Young Groshen says the constant drilling on the steel decks broke down the arches in his feet but if he can correct the trouble, will enter the service again. He left his brother Harry somewhere on the Atlantic but does not know just where he is. Young Groshen is great ly enthused with navy life as are all other members of the crew which were on the U. S. S. San Diego. They are all anxious to get into the fray over on the other side of the Atlantic and to that end are prepar ing themselves for a good account when they meet the enemy. Frank Akers and wife of Tone were in Heppner on Saturday. Mr. Akers has had a milk route in lone for sometime past, furnishing his customers from the farm. He is just a little puzzled to know what to do under the restrictions of the new law that recently went into effect govern ing the selling1 of milk and butter, but will doubtless have his cows examined as required by the State Vetrinarian and continue in the busi ness of selling milk to the lone peo ple. He enjoys a good trade in milk Gurdane & Son CONFECTIONERY AND POOL ROOM HAVE REMOVED TO THE NEW GARRIGUES BUILDING EAST SIDE MAIN STREET MOST ATTRACTIVE PLACE OF REC REATION IN HEPPNER.
