LOWER PRICE FOR FEED HELP STOCKMEN THE SWISS ALPINE YOOLERS. 0 s An Unique Company. There ls n treat In store for us In our Lyceum Course this season. One of the numbers ls to be the Swiss Al pine Yodlers, fresh from the land of the silvery topped Alps. The company ls a family affair, con sisting of Herr Alois Ploner and his family, lute of Sllz, Switzerland. The Ploner family arc a "find" Just as was the Itnlinn tenor, Caruso. Herr Alois Ploner, the manager, is a bari tone with a voice of rare quality; Frau Agnes Ploner, the mother, has a soprnno voice, and enjoys the reputa tion of being the best lady Yodler from the Alpines ; Miss Anna, the daughter, has a rich alto voice, and Master Franz, the son, Is recognized as n child prodigy on the violin. In fact, the wholo fumlly are Instrumen talists as well ns vocalists, Herr Ploner being a pnstmaster on the zither. Of course, their instrumental work Is only auxiliary to their Yod ling, which ls tho art in which we will be most Interested. According to Webster the "yodle" ls a sound pe culiar to the Swiss mountaineers and ls mode by suddenly changing from the nntural voice to the falsetto. To the uninitiated the effect ls somewhat startling, and the selections so ren dered are unique and effective. These Swiss singers have been trained In this art from earliest times and the yodle, has become a fixed element of their nnturnl and national music. Of course, you want to learn how to yodlo and meet this delightful family of Swiss people. Get your tickets early. THE FAMOUS NIGHTINGALES OF SWITZERLAND. Ths Ploner Family. The mountain people of Switzerland are Instinctively musical. They Just bubble over with song, vying with the feathered songsters of their forests In musical effervescents. Much like the birds, the Swiss Alpine singer varies his song, changing frequently from the ordinary voice to the fulsetto. This ls called Yodllng and ls an art, as you will discover If you attempt It. One might Imagine this frequent change of voice would produce a nerve racking effect, but quite the reverse is true It ls as soothing and pleasing as a lullaby, when performed by an Al pine Yodler. The voice Just slides from the high to the low nnd back again without a break. The effect ls as pleasant and soothing as swinging In a hammock on a perfect tiny In June. How typical the Yodle ls of the Alps here a snow capped peak, there a verdant valley. The harmonious Inter mingling of these elevations and their varying colorings make up the beauti ful scenery of the Alps. Would It be artistically sacrilegious to enjoy the scenery of a yodle? The Ploner family are natives ot Sllz, Switzerland, and Yodllng ls in stinctive with them, not an acquired art. They can't help but yodle, for it Is as necessary with then) ai eating. The Swiss Alpine Yodlers ast to be here soon on the Lyceum Cburse, and will necessarily yodlo some for their own pleasure. Why not bring the family and enjoy the treat with them J Portland, Ore., Dec. 31. "Under tre new Food Administration regula tions governing the price of mill feeds, substantial encouragement is offered to the farmer and the stock raiser, and the Administration now hopes for their full cooperation in a capacity production during the com ing year, of hogs, cattle, sheep and poultry. The above Is the statement of As sistant Federal Food Administrator W. K. Newell, who points out that the way is now clear for the farmer and the stock raiser to plan for the greatest possible output of food an imals. "There is every assurance of a steady and profitable market," said Mr. Newell, "with as ample a sup ply of feed as can be had by milling all the wheat possible in the North west. The raising of food animals, particularly hogs, and beef and dairy cattle, is not only the patriotic duty of every citizen so situated that ho can do so, but it will be a splendid business investment as well. For : several years' to come, because of, world-conditions, the market for food animals will inevitably be strong and steady, and now that the output of , grain feeds at the mill has come un der Government control through the new licensing system, with a fixed price basis, the cost of production will no longer be prohibitively high or too uncertain for a safe invest ment. Let every farmer and stock raiser in Oregon make his plans now for the fullest possible production of all food animals, particularly hogs, which are most needed and which will prove the most profitable to the producer. Under the new regulations the mill er must not charge the dealer more than 38 of the cost of a ton of wheat at the mill door for bran. All feed dealers must operate under the federal license and must not charge more than a reasonable profit for the handling of any mill feeds. Any cas es of over charge by dealers should be promptly reported to the Federal Food Administration office at Port land for Investigation." The new prices of mill feeds, from nunc, tu uvaici, . ... ud v"'"" v. $30.00 per ton for bran, $2.00 higher mies of our associates in this war. GILLIAM & BISBEE are prepared to furnish the farmers and stockgrowers with all kinds of machinery and extras for their 1918 equipment. There is going to be a shortage of extras and we would advise go ing over all machinery NOW and ordering all the extras you will need this season and have all machinery adjusted and ready for use when the time comes to use it. Take our word for it, if you wait until the extras are needed you may not be able to get them. There will be no time to waste in 1918 for shorts, and $9.00 higher for mid dlings in carload lots, with a differ ential of not more than 50c for less than carload lots. This is a substan tial reduction as against the prices charged for mill feeds heretofore. With this cut in the cost of feeding stock and the assurance of perman ent Government control of the mill feed output, risk is reduced to the minimum for the stock raiser, who is now urged to. do his utmost to help the Food Administration meet the tremendous demands of our ar mies and that of the peoples and ar- Boardman Country Looks Good. The Boardman country is looking fine, according to the report brought to Heppner this week by Earl Cramer, formerly of Hardman, who now makes his home In Morrow county's new city in the north. Crop condi tions are excellent and many of the farmers are busy at the present time sowing wheat. Alfalfa on the irri gation project is also growing rapid ly, says Mr. Cramer. A
