The approving legal oplnlnon of Furiii Bureaus of Three Counties Ar range Meeting. Acting on the suggestion of the Farm Bureaus of Morrow, Umatilla and Wallowa counties, the President of the Wool Growers Association called a committee meeting of the leading sheepmen of the three coun ties, at Pendleton on April 13. To this meeting as delegates represent ing the Morrow County Farm Bureau went R. W. Turner, Co-operative Marketing Committeeman, Ed Neill and W. W.' Howard. The meet ing was also attended by a large number of sheepmen from Umatilla county. After considering plans for the Marketing of the extra sheep and lambs available over the North west, the question of marketing wool las taken up and a committee ap pointed to go to Portland to confer with business men of the wool game in the metropolis, as well as weBtern growers, to ascertain what could be done in connection with organizing a central wool market for Northwes tern wool. As delegates to this meeting from Morrow county went Ed Neill of Butter Creek, Jack Hyud of Cecil, Pat Mollahan and Frank McMenamin from Heppner, and the County Agent. This was also attend ed by a number of growers from Umatilla county, Wallowa county, and Douglas county as well as repre senfalives of the State Marketing Bureau at Corvallis. The various warehouses had representatives thero as well as many of the wool buyers of the northwest, and several manu facturers. The spirit of cooperation that was manifested at this meeting by everybody concerned was decided ly gratifying. Th manufacturer is keenly interested in providing a mar ket In which he can buy wool when ever needed. The grower ia likewise interested, because in such a market alone can he secure the real benefit of MS labor. At the present time, the speculator largely figures aa a means of financing the wool grower. The committeemen were unanimous in deciding that it would be prefer able to try to create a special large wool center at Portland, rather than holding wool sales over the North west. On May first, Saturday after noon, the people of Morrow county will meet to thrash the matter out and see what may be done in the line of fixing wages, providing .wool markets, arranging for better market facllitleB, for sheep, and any other matters which may come in line with a definite re-organizatlon of the Wool Growers Association. It is hoped that this general discussion of the problems of the sheepmen will result In definite action which will get re sults for the future. Every man In terested in the sheep industry should plan to be on hand. A Carload of Wire Several of the farmers of Morrow county have inquired at this office as to the possibility of saving money by shipping a carload of wire. In this connection, will Bay that the Deschutes county Farm Bureau was able to save quite a large amount of money a year ago by pooling their order and shipping a carload from the eastern factories. We did not find that we would be able to buy of the Portland dealers or anywhere .ilong the coast in a way to save money to be of material benefit, and 'we are positive that the only way' that the farmers here can save mon ey on a shipment of wire is by going in together and putting up the mon ey and having it shipped direct from the factories. In this connection last year we were able to save a little better than 30 per cent. We do not know what can be done at the pre sent time. Last year our order was finally placed through one of the lo cal dealers, and they insisted In mak ing us a carload by having some for their own store. We assume thut this could be done here. We have ndw 12 miles of netting listed for shipment. We would be very glad to hear from any members of the Farm Bureau or anyone who desires to become a member and who con templates building a fence. Now as to the kind of wire that would bo Included In this order, almost any kind of barbed wire or Iwlre fence netting or poultry netting or any thing of that kind, and anything that will go under the head of wire we can nearly include in this proposition. Let us hear from you it you are In terested. It will require six weeks to get the shlpmentliere, It will pro bably require about six weeks for us to assemble this order. pruning. There Is a natural balance between the root system and the top system of a tree which should not be too radically disturbed. Id apple trees the maio thing ia to develop a permanent tree structure. If the tree is a 1-year-old and puts out a poor bead, re head it. Have never less than four, or more than six leaders. Have the leaders spac ed up and down on the trunk so as not to form bad crotches. Have the leaders spaced around the tree so that no leader is directly under an other, but let each have a position of its own, so that when you look di rectly down the tree, the leaders look like Bpokes of a wheel. When the leaders have grown to be about five and a half to six feet high, cut them back about four and one-half to five feet high. The next year after this is done, the first series of perman ent fruit bearing laterals mill come out within a foot or 18 inches of the top of the leader. Select two to four of the best laterals in a permanent position and cut the others off. Leave some of the low laterals for temporary bearing. These can be cut off after they have borne four or five years. The strong inside shoots that come inside the tree opposite the first series of permanent laterals should be wrapped together to grow into living braces (where needed. Cut the leader two or three feet above the first series according to the var iety and the next year bring out a second series of permanent laterals. The idea is to have a permanent tree, with the fruit-bearing laterals in a permanent position, thus the tree has the maximum amount of fruit-bearing wood, a very important point for the fruit-growers in a country where the trees bear so heavily. If this method is TSirried out it Iwill not be necessary to cut large limbs out of the tree when they get older. If twool was worth 55c per pound in 1919 it should be worth $1.00 this year, it cost that much more. Do you get your money's worth out of the Farm Bureau? If not why not? Its for you. Maybe you better get busy. Doctor McClure Speaks on Wool Wool In Good Suit Costs Only 95.33. The statement of H. R. King of Seattle in an address before the Na tional Retail Clothiers' Association at Chicago that clothnig prices will advance from 26 to 40 per cent, part ly because of higher wool prices, was characterized as "absurd" by Dr. S. W. McClure of Salt Lake, secretary of the National Wool Growers' As sociation. Mr. King said before the clothiers that Australian twool has increased from $1.14 a pound in 1914 to $4.10 a pound now. "The truth of the matter is that wool is no higher in Boston, the wool market of the country, today than it was 90 days ago," Dr. McClure de clared, "and the highest price yet paid for clean seouretTiwool in Bos ton U around $2.10 per pound for the very finest grade. Ordinary three-eighths blood wool, out of which soldiers' uniforms were made and which is the most useful grade for clothing purposes, is selling today in Boston at from $1.30 to $1.40 per pound scoured. This Iwool has not advanced in the last 90 days. "To manufacture a suit of a man's clothing, suitable for the average sized individual and made of med ium winter-weight goods, requires about 62 ounces of wool, which can be bought in Boston today at $5.25. This is on the presumption that the suit is made of all iwool. Such suits as this retail today at from $60 to $75. "If one were to use the very finest wool grown in this suit, not more than $7 worth could be used. "The price of wool has not been responsible for the advances in the price of clothing and even at present wool values the wool required to manufacture a suit represents less than 10 per cent of the price at which such a suit is retailed. "There may be some reason for advancing the price of clothing," Dr. McClure asserted, "but it cannot be blamed on the price of wool.' Pruning Your Trees Different kinds of trees require different treatment, but the first part of this article applies to trees in general, the rest to apple trees in particular. 1. Trune the roots at planting time. Thin out all crowding and in terlacing roots. Cut away all broken ends. 2. Prune the top to correspond substantially with the loss of root by removing from the nursery, and the Messrs. Teal, Minor & Winfree of Portland, Oregon, will be furnished the successful bidder. The Court reserves the right to re ject any and all bids. The assessed valuation of the taxable property of the County Is $14,046,730.64. J. A. WATERS, Clerk. The Labor Situation State Chamber of Commerce Makes Investigation, We are in receipt of a communi cation from Secretary Quayle of the State Chamber of Commerce, stating that after considerable investigation of labor conditions all over the Uni ted States, they iind the available la bor supply to be at least 10 per cent less than last year all over the United States, and the State of Oregon is not less than 85 per cent of a normal quota. Morrow county so far has felt the lubor situation quite keenly in the livestock business and to a considerable extent "in the grain sec tion. What the conditions will be during harvest can only be conject ured. It would seem that we would likely face a serious shortage, how ever we cannot be sure as conditions might change. The arrangements which we have made with Portland agencies for supplying help here We have been able to secure a great We have been ablt to secure a great many people from the State metrop olis, but not as many as we would of liked. We hope that we can make better arrangements for harvest than we have been able to make for spring seeding.

For every species of fish and condition of water there is the proper bait which, when used, will give the greatest num ber of finny beauties in the basket at the end of the day's sport. The wise angler acquaints himself with this lore and his efforts are productive of greater results than the one who uses any kind of bait for any kind of fish in any kind of water. Just so, there are in every locality certain ways for the mer chant to increase his sales and among these advertising stands out preeminently. But the wise advertiser soon learns that ad vertising in itself will produce but few results if the medium used is not the best. In Heppner, close attention to the me diums the advertiser has at his command shows conclusively that The Gazette-Tinies is the choice of local advertisers, and what is just as significant, the choice of large national adver tisers, with whom advertising is a science and who judge a me dium solely by the standard of the results obtained. That these large contracts are renewed every year is one of the strongest recommendations of the effectiveness of G.-T. adver tisiny. Place your advertising in The Gazette-Times and your judgment will be vindicated by the results obtained. Phone Main 882 and let us help you plan a Spring campaign.
