Put Your Surplus Straw
Back On Your Land
The straw that you burn
or use wastefully can be
put back on your land with
big profit. Properly spread,
etraw acts as a mulch on
fall seeded crops. It pre
vents soil blowing, prevents
winter killing, prevents
winter sleet from smoth
ering plants and when
turned under it has almost
as much fertilizing value as
manure.

he is making the same success with
.'arming that he has made in running

Doherty lost his home by fire, the
house and all Its contents burning
'.o the ground. Today there stands
in imposing residence on the saov
jround where the old house formerly
stood. The new house is modern in
jvery detail with running water and
electric lights. Mr. Doherty expects
o do his own threshing this year,
rue men are heading the grain at the
-resent time.
J. W. Sibley Is a progressive young
.'armer who is making an attractive
iome in the lower Strawberry sec
ion. Although he was handicapped
ast fall with sickness in his family
ind was therefore unable to put in
.Us crop until late, the grain is coni
ng out good and wll make a fair
yield. Mr. Sibley is not giving bis
entire attention to grain growing,
however, for he has one of the best
gardens we have seen on the hill
ands of Morrow county. Mr. Sibley
is fortunate in having five valuable
.ssets on his ranch: Mrs. Sibley,
.hree little Slbleys and an abundance
f good water. Hence the excellent
garden stuff. Mr. Sibley does his
tarvestlng with a combine and ex
pects to get under way this week
Two new farmers fa this same sec-
Ion are C. Mink and his son-in-law,
it. Clinger. Messrs. Mink and Clin-
,-er formerly farmed in Umatilla
county, where they met with success
and they are introducing the same
50od methods into their farming in
.his county. Mr. Clinger bought the
Albert Kerber ranch, known as the
jld Newlon place and Mr. Mink
bought the Anderson brothers' ranch.
Mr. Mink has in 160 acres of wheat.
1a his own land and an additional
160 adjoining, which he has rented.
These men are valuable additions to
.he farming fraternity of Morrow
county and In the tew months they
have been here are already showing
..hat their methods are proper for
he successful growing of crops.
E. C. Miller has two threshing out
fits on his fields this week. In one
field his two sons are operating a
two-man Deering cmbine and the
wheat is making a yield of around
15 bushels. On a field of heavier
grain, the Earl Warner outfit la
heading And threshing and this field
is making an average of better than
20 bushels per acre. Mr. Miller is
very well pleased with the returns
he is getting, since the grain is yield
ing heavier than he had antcipated
earlier In the season.
Carl Marquardt and his son have
in a section and a half of fine grain.
What they have combined so far has
been making a yield of 20 bushels,
while he estimates some of it will go
over that figure and some will fall
short. Mr. Marquardt believes that
his entire crop will average twenty
bushels from present indications.
J. D. Bauman, who farms about
six miles below Heppner, is threshing
from the header and his crop of blue
stem is turning out well. A bumper
crop was killed in the making here
by a little hot weather and on the hill
tops the grain was burned but at
that Mr. Bauman has several bun
dred acres on which the grain
