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.

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

Is Your Hook Baited
Right?
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.
