Man Who Was Among First Settlers
In Judith Basin Country, Belie
ves Morrow County Offers
Greatest Opportunity
To Wheat Raiser.
! "This is a great country, this Mor
row county, and we have made money
since coming here four years ago,"
said W. E. Cummings, west Heppner
farmer who was in town last Satur
day. Mr. Cummings has Just closed a
deal for the purchase of the half in
terest of his partner, R. T. Brown in
the Cummlngs-Brown ranch six miles
west of this city. The ranch consists
of 800 acres and Mr. Cummings will
harvest grain from 600 acres next
tall.
Being among the first homestead
ers In the famous Judith Basin coun
try in Montana, Mr. Cummings can
relate many Interesting incidents of
the early development of that section.
He went in .theje-iiefore the advent
of the railroad and began breaking
; ground on his homestead preparatory
to the first harvest.
One day while engaged In plowing,
Mr. Cummings saw- an automobile
approaching his place, the first auto
mobile he had ever seen. As it drew
up to where he was working, a man
stepped from the car.
"How many acres do you own,"
asked the stange visitor, "and how
many acres are you plowing."
Mr. Cummings told him he had ta
ken up a homestead there and was
struggling under some difficulty.
After asking the young farmer who
and where his neighbors lived, the
man from the automobile said, "Now
you men in here go ahead and plow
every acre you can and raise every
possible bushel of grain. I have left
considerable money down there In
town with your banker and he will
let you have any amount you may
need. There will be a railroad In
here before fall, so you will have no
trouble getting your grain to mar
Upon his departure the strange vis
itor left word that his name was
James J. Hill and that he was going
to build a railroad through there to
the Pacific coast in a few months.
Farmer Cummings nearly fell over
upon learning the identity of this fa
mous raidroad and empire builder.
But sure enough, the permanent sur
vey was put through by May of that
year and by October a new townslte
had been laid off two miles from the
Cummings ranch and the farmers
hauled their grain from the fields di
rect to the siding r.nd loaded the
cars. From that time on, the devel
opment of the Judith Basin country
was rapid.
Owing to the failing health of Mrs.
Cummings, the family was forced to
seek a lower altitude and they came
to Oregon, locating In Salem. They
lived In the Capitol City for eight
years and during that time, Mr. Cum-
mings said he had many opportuni
ties to invest in Willamette Valley
land, but ho thought the price per ac
re entirely out of proportion to what
could be produced on the land.
After Mrs. Cummings had regained
her health, they came to Morrow
county and after four years of life on
the farm hero, they wouldn't live any
where else. Mr. Cummings believes
that this county offers the greatest
opportunity today for a man who
wants to make the most on his invest
ment. Low priced lands which pro
duce as these do, and the low cost of
farming, makes It er.sy for a man to
get ahead.
Mr. Cummings at one time farmed
In North Dakota and all grain was
handled in bulk there. He believes
that Is the only system for grain
handling and will adopt this method
next year.

TALK TO THE OFFICIALS
Under the espionage act recently
passed by congress, It is the duty of
every citizen to report to the proper
officials any acts or talk calculated to
interfere with the operation of any of
the war measures oi me uovernmeni.
Any treasonable or unpatriotic talk
should be reported without delay.
The Government will not permit the
enemies of the country within our
gates to bring on a situation like the
situation in Russia. The agents of
the countries at war with the United
States are not overlooking anything,
however small, which will hinder the
war operations. Hence, It behooves
every citizen to do his duty and obey
the law by reporting anything which
shows any person In the light of a
potential enemy. The officials will
then take such action as the case
seems to merit. When a state of war
exists, many things are forbidden,
which, in time of peace, would be

The food situation in Great Britain,
France and Italy is far from satisfac
tory. Americans are appealed to by
the food administration to demon
strate that a free people can voluntar
ily save food stuffs enough to feed the
allies and the neutral countries who
must depend upon us. Do not think
that this is a small matter. It Is a
matter of the most vital Importance.
The Oregon boys are now In France.
Do you want them to go hungry when
a little saving of wheat, meat, fat and
sugar on your part will Insure them
food enough? The slogan is, "Eat
plenty, but do not waste. Substitute
wherever you can to save wheat,
meat, fats and sugar." Patriotism
now means sacrifice. Thousands of
our finest young men will sacrifice
their lives for our country and for us.
Let us sacrifice a little for them.
