Alex Lindsay of lone Bays Great Ex-
position Forward 8U-p In Promot
ing Industry In Northwest.
Tliinka Portland Fine City.
"It would be useless for me to at
tempt to tell you, Mr. Editor, of all
that I saw at the Pacific International
Livestock Exposition out at the new
pavilion at the North Portland stock
yards," said Alex Lindsay, former
Morrow county sheepman who now
makes his home In the Hose City.
"Fine stock and new methods were
much in evidence. Of course the
milking machine is nothing new, but
1 bad a very interesting time watch
ing two cows being milked by a ma
chine. These cows had never been
milked in such a manner before and
I expected to see some kicking, but
actually they just Btood and chewed
their 'cud' and Beemed to enjoy it.
This happened to be a Sharpless ma
chine, operated by a man who knew
his business, lie milked three and a
half gallons in about as many min
utes. Another very Interesting ma
chine was one to fill milk buttles,
demonstrated by the Simpless Com
puny. All the man did was to set the
bottle on the machine and it was
ready for the customer when taken
off, the cap put on air tight. I be
lieve this machine can be improved
upon by another year. I suggested
he put an endleBS chuin to it with the
house number so the milk could be
delivered direct to the consumer In
one operation.
"The greatest milk cow I ever saw
was a llolstein from Hollywood, Wn.,
giving 19 gallons in 24 hours. Per
bups there were better to be seen, but
as lam not much of a cow man, 1
thought this was good enough for
me. The display of Shorthorns and
Heretorda was very good, but what 1
am itching to tell you about, Mr. Edi
tor, is the sheep division, and the.
wool exhibit. It would be mere folly
to try to tell you what I saw among
the woolies, it all seems like a dream.
The display of English breeds took
me back to the days of my youth, and
ultho I didn't get half through, I cut
turnips with a machine I hadn't seen
for thirty years and now over forty
years since I cut turnips with a ma
chine like it in Scotland, when w
were fitting up show sheep for the
great animal sales at Perth, of thor
oughbred Hams. Of course we ar.
alt Americans on this side of the pond
but I often wonder why it took so
long before a sheep was worth ten
dollars in Oregon and not a sign of a
shipbuilding yard in Portland. It
took Kaiser Bill to wuke up the world
and now since tho awakening In Ore
gon I suggest that we have an annual
show and Bale of rams every yeur.
"At the show the English breeds
seemed to be better represented than
the fine wool breeds, although J E.
Smith had a fine bunch of Delaines.
Kamboulllettes made a very good
Bhow, In fact some of the finest sheep
of this kind I ever saw, were on
display. Lincolns were mostly from
the Valley, from Monmouth. The
sheep that I couldn't but take great
Interest in were the Konincys, a
beautiful sheep of the English white
fuce type, and I think will be a fine
leading sheep for crossing ns he Is n
blocky fellow and built on the ground.
Another sheep of the same build Is
the Corrledule, only much heavier.
The black faced English shcecp would
have, In himself, made a great show.
Hampshires took the lead in number
and as the black faces are mostly
dyed yellow. It seemed to catch the
eye as people in Oregon are not much
used to this way of fixing up for show
stuff.
"We never get too old to learn and
I believe I learned more about wool
in four days than I would have learn
ed In twenty yenrs running the lone
demonstration weedor, that is If I had
not come to the stock show. The
average farmer is always busy, too
busy to come to Portland unless he
has business hero, but the boy in
Eastern Oregon that has ten sheep,
I would rather meet in the stock
Bhow than the man that has ten
thousand.
"I am sure that collection of wool
that was on exhibit by the Colum
bia Bnsin Wool Warehouse was a
groat education to anyone Interest
ed. The stock show made It possi
ble to bring the best of the sheep to
gether, either for mutton or wool.
The Columbia Wool Warehouse made
it possible by just stepping across
the aisle to know whothcr you were
Increasing tho value of your wool or
decreasing It by breeding, as they
had wool on exhibition from tho
uttermost part of the earth and all
of the states of the Union. But
Oregon has got to get In and do bet
ter In the line of fine wools If she
Is going to lead the world In that
line.
"Enough said, Mr. Editor, and al
though I never contributed to the
erecting of such a fine building, the
men that shared In tho Pacific Inter
national Livestock Exposition are to
be congratulated for Just as sure as
President Wilson said In one of his
late addresses that the men who are
not looking forward today are of no

RABBIT COMMITTEE
On Friduy afternoon at the office of
County Agent Hunt occurred one of
the important meetings in connec
tion with the rabbit campaign which
will be put on in the northern end of
the county during the coming few
weeks. After a thorough discussion
of the various phases of the question
and viewing the amount of poison
which would be necessary.the amount
of ground it would cover, and the
vast areas of deserts where the rab
bits abound in great numbers, it was
unanimously decided that a sum of
not less than $4800 would be required
to put on anything like an effective
campaign.
The following budget was there
fore considered and adopted:
One hundred more rabbit corrals,
to be built in the western part of the
county, and in view of the further
at $6.00 per corral, amounting to
$600.
Two tons of hay at $20.00 per ton,
$40.00.
Labor of putting out poison, 9 men
5 days at $5.00 per day, $225.00.
Two thousand pounds of strychnine
at $1.60 per ounce, $3200.00.
Sundries and incidentals, $735.00.
Total, $4800.00.
In view of the well known fact that
the Morrow County Court is making
every effort to build roads in the
county, and 1 nview of the further
fact that no provision was made In
the last budget for any tax money to
be available for this effort, it is nec
essary that this be raised from the
affected districts, and from the farm
ers themselves While in some in
stances this may work a little bit of
hardship, in view of the importance
of the drive intended, it is hoped,
and from the talk had with various
farmers, It Is believed, that there will
be no difficulty in raising this money.
It will be handled very much after
the plans of the various bond drives
which have been conducted in the
past and the various committees in
each of the following named neigh
borhoods will apportion the amount
to be raised in their respective local
ity among their neighbors and a
special committee in each neighbor
hood will have charge of the collec
tion: Irrigon, $400.00; Boardman, $800;
Rhea Siding, $800; Cecil, $800;
Morgan, $500; Alpine, $600; Wells
Springs, $500; lone, $500.
Rhea Siding will include all the
territory which can be reached In
Gilliam county and extending as far
as Arlington, nnd a large amount of
pens will be built in the very badly
rabbit infested territory and it is
hoped a campaign can be put on.
Last winter under the direction of
County Agent Brown, a hundred rab
bit pens were constructed and sixty
ounces of poison collected. Some of
this poison is still on hand, the rab
bit corrals are all built and will re
main as a permanent investment for
future use, nnd nil the money that
was collected and received from the
County Court has been properly ac
counted for. A statement showing
exactly where this money went will
bo prepared by Mr. Brown and dis
played at the rabbit meeting and an
effort will be mndo to convince evory
man that not only has the money In
the past been well spent, but by point
ing out the fact that it is now to be
handled by probably the three most
prominent farmers In the county, we

During the past three weeks Coun
ty Agent Hunt has visited many com
munities in the county and held a
great many meetingB and he reports
that every community vls'ted is tak-
ing hold of the Farm Bureau work In
a way far beyond his expectations.
In the northern part of the county
where the rabbit campaign is to be
put on and where it was planned by
the rodent control committee that a
fund of at least $4800 would be nec
essary the people are taking hold with
keen interest and there appears to be
no doubt but that practically the en
tire sum will be subscribed and that
a live campaign will be put on. The
material for the pens has been order
ed and several men secured to put up
the same and some are now In process
! of construction. During the Btormy
, weather when it is anticipated that
the poison will be put in the corrals,
nine men will be engaged to go over
the territory and see that It Is put on
promptly and while around the settle
ment every farmer will be expected
to assist. The United States Biolog
ical Survey agent will be in Morrow
county during the next week and
special Instruction will be given re
garding the latest methods of fixing
the poison. The various localities are
planning a splendid program of work
for the coming year, goad committees
have been appointed and in several
of the communities plans for regular
monthly meetings are eoing forward
and the people are looking towards a
verv successful winter's work.
Automobile Tops Is A
New Industry For Heppner
Heppner has another new industry
which gives promise of growing to
large proportions. It is that of mak
ing automobile tops and repairing old
or damaged ones. Bert P. Stone,
better known as "Stoney" has pur
chased the harness business from E.
G. Noble and will continue at the old
stand. He recently returned fro.il
Walla Walla, where he received a
number of weeks thorough instruc
tion in the manufacture of auto tops,
and having been in the harness mak
ing business for years, handling
leather goods, his new lino comes to
him easy. Mr. Noble will continue
to turn out the celebrated Noble sad
dle, devoting his entire time to the
saddle making business. While the
two businesses of saddles nnd harness
making have been completely divorc
ed, their individual owners will con
tinue at the old Noble stand on Main
street, where extensive improve
ments have recently been made to
care for the ever Increasing trade.

HID
VICTIM
E
J. X. Burgess, Slain by Robber's Pis
tol, Was Prominently Mentiliend
With Wool and Sheep Inter,
est in Eastern Oregon.
Jasper Newton Burgess, who was
killed instantly last J-riuay nigul at
me isiareuRmi Uvera oil lue Luuui.ua
road out of Portland, was well known
in Heppner, having lived at Puul
Rock (or a number of years, where
he headed the Cunningham Sheep and
Land Company. He was ever prom -nent
in public affairs, serving ;n.s
district In the State legislature and
had recently been appointed state
Highway commissioner by Governor
ullcott to succeed W. L. Thompson.
Mr. Burgess in company wiu a
party of friends, which included
George Peringer and E. P. Marshall,
both of Pendleton, had been in the
tavern but a few minutes and were
treated in a private dining room when
one of the robbers entered th . rc om
and commanded the diners to throw
their hands. It is believed that the
bandit mistook Mr. Burgess' start of
surprise as an attempt to resist and
he fired. Mr. Burgess was shot in
the head by the first bullet and a
rapid succession of shots followed,
each one entering some part of his
body. He was followed to his feet
by Mr. Peringer, who attempted to
close the door. Mr. Peinger was shot
through the heart.
Three men, Dutch Herman. David
Smith and James Ogle, have been ar
rested and upon the confession of
Ogle, evidence points to Smith as the
man who fired the fatal shots. Mr
Marshall is also sure that Smith is
the man who did the firing, saying. "I
could not forget those eyes." when
Identifying the robbe.s.
The funeral of Mr. Burgess w
held Wednesday afternoon from the
Episcopal church in Pendleton. He
is survived by his mother, Mrs. Thom
as Burgess of The Dalles, a widow,
one son and one daughter. Mr. Bur
gess was 46 years old. and a native
Oregonian, The Dalles being his birth
place. I. W. W. AND REDS ARE
ROUNDED UP AT FOSSIL
Thirteen I. W. W. were arrested at
Fossil and placed in jail there last
week according to the Fossil Journal.
One expression which was overheard
and led to a general round-up of the
wabblies by the officers and members
of the American Legion was "I am
red from my feet to my head, and
they can have me whenever they
want me."
The I. W. W. had also been spread
ing about their propaganda in the
form of literature. The men taken
in charge were largely from the var
ious road camps which are now locat
ed in that vicinity. According to the
road boss, the men had been doing
good work and had caused no trouble.
However the officers took action un
der the statute enacted by the last
legislature which says in part: "Any
person, who by word of mouth or
writing, advocates, affirmatively sug
gests or teaches the duty, necessity,
propriety or expediency of crime,
criminal syndicalism, or sabotage, or
who shall advocate, affirmatively sug
gest or teach the duty, necessity,
propriety or expediency of doing any
act of violence, the destruction of or
damage to any property, the bodily
injury to any person or persons, or
the commission of any crime or un
lawful act as a means of accomplish
ing or effecting any industrial or po
litical ends, change or revolution, or
for profit; or who prints, publishes,
edits, issues or knowingly circulates

viction thereof shall be punished by
imprisonment in the state peniten
tiary for a term of not less than one
year nor more than ten years, or by a

both such imprisonment and fine."
