Nov. 14 With & major ity of 151 in the House ar.i 22 in th? Senate, th Republican ;arty has re turned to power with a solemn sense of responsibility after ten years of lemo crattc controL Th fact that the House majority Is larger than ever given any party in the history of the country and that the Sen ate majority is sufficient to make sure of the passape of all party measures, does not cause elation anions the lead ers in either branch of Oor.press so much a determination to do away with the evils in administration which caus ed the landslide in Their favor. It is only within the facts to say that no party ever came to power with such a serious sense of responsibility as the Republican party at this time. In inter views with those who are to wield that power one is impressed at once witi this feeling that the party must do great thinps to make pood and that it will do them. The Republican party Is the party of constructive effort. It lost Congress in 1910 on the Democratic promise to reduce the cost of living, lost the presidency in 1?12 by a split, and in 191 by a promise to keep us out of war. It returns to take up the bur den where it laid it down, having in the meantime during the war outvied the Democrats In patriotic submersion of partisanship. It is united as it has never been. Th Democratic party, on the other hand is literally shot to pieces, tie cause of the nature of the campaign he waged. Cox is generally discredited, so far as th National Capital is concern ed. Beaten worse than Alton B. Parker, in 1904, he cannot hope to again lead th Democratic hosts. Because the Wil son administration was so utterly re pudiated, it is unlikely that William G. McAdoo, the President's son-in-law. can take up its guidance. Already three times beaten, William Jennings Bryan j would be glad to take the reins again; j but the South will not again accept him. J Governor Smith, of New York, though j he made a great race in his defeat, is too closely allied with Tammany to j make any widespread appeal to the ; country. Champ Clark has gone down In the general landslide. Claude Kit chin, who will now asume the leader ship of the House, hails from N'orth j Carolimvand is out of the running for ! national leadership. Senator Oscar L'n-1 derwood of Alabama, will for the time j at least come nearer to being the lead- j er of his party than any other man be- ! cause of his titular leadership of the j Democratic majority in the Senate; but he and Bryan are bitter enemies, he is too far South to be potent and he does not appeal to the progressives. Many see In William R. Hearst an aspirant for Democratic honors again, but his attitude toward war questions would probably prevent that Furthermore, the Democrats are without any great issue to stand upon after defeat, such as enthused them after the defeat of Cleveland in 18S3. Both the ill health and the unpopularity of President Wilson would prevent his return. The league of nations is dead, buried beyond the slightest chance of resurrection. Under the Republican ad ministration the government will be conducted for America, contenting it self with fomenting the most friendly relations with all, while protecting it self from the possible aggressions of any of them in the future. It will not assume that the millenium is at hand and hence propose immediate disarm ament It wilt have the greatest Navy In the world and an army sufficient for development to meet any emergency. In this the Democrats have no issue. They will resume the place formerly held by them during the Roosevelt ad ministration as a mere party of negation. .t v fr tiatV.c to continue un- -.;ved on the road while the work is on. The rv.'W.uiam roads in Mart land have( tery good satisfaction, but con-j i.nuor.s care has been largely respon I for their success. The roads re co::avttly patrolled and no hole of any ; s;2e is allowed to go unrepaired. Ma-; leriat for patching is kept at convenient points along the road for the use of the pr. troll man. Krora a relatively small investment in admittedly low-type road it builds up a better one from year to ear. always conserving the bulk of the ; previous investment i i They Grow Big Turnips In 1 Morrow County Gardens Aided Northwest Farmers To Increase Alfalfa Crops Superiority tf Morrow county grown e;e tables has never been questioned when quality was the issue. And If there is any skeptical one hereabouts who may think that garden sass does not grow in some quantity as well we would ask that they take a peep at that bit; purple top turnip on display in the winuow ot the Sam Hughes Company grocery stoie. Its the biggest one tur nip we ever saw, and plenty big enough it is for all practical purposes. This eno'tnous vegetable of the mustard family was grown by Charles Osten on his farm south of this city. We under stand that the turnip received no spec ial encouragement from Mr. Osten. but U just sort of trv- up as it were. Mr. Often raises all kinds of garden stuJT on his ranch, not the least of which are strawberries. And the ranch is right near the timber line. Mrs. M. Belle Thompson visited for day at the home of her son Ralph I. Thompson on Willow creek, and return ed to her home in Portland Wednesday morning. Mrs. Thompson is just re turning from a trip of two months du ration visiting with relatives in the East and stopped over In Heppner on her way home. Farmers in Oregon and Washington have greatly Increased their alfalfa crops by the application of sulphur. This practice is based upon the results of investigations by th experiment stations in these States as well as of demonstrations of the use of sulphur on alfalfa conducted by the county ag- 1 ricultural agents in cooperation with specialists from the agricultural col- j lege. In Deschutes County last year ?5 tons of sulphur were used, at a to-. tal cost of a little more than fl4,0M. and the increased yield, reckoned at $20 a ton, was f ISO. 000. In Jackson County 277 tons, costing about $13,000, are es-, timated to have increased the yield $110,000. In Klamath County 93 tons, i costing $5,400, gave an estimated in-! crease of $40,000. reckoning alfalfa at ' $15 a ton. Demonstrations In Jose phine, Wallowa and Wasco Counties j give a similar ratio of results. The first j experiments in sulphur fertilization in ; these States were made in 1912. Rapid development of the Innovation was made possible through the system of ; county agents and key men who were practical farmers. ; W. F.

HERREN ZMa'm Street, Hcppntr, Oregon Red Cross Co-Operates With Other Good Relief Activities The closest degree of co-operation, to th mutual advantage of all organiza tions and to the great benefit of the work Involved, is maintained by the Red Cross nursing service, the Anti Tuberculosis Association, and the state nursing bureaus of Idaho, Oregon and Washington. In Washington, a working agreement with the Anti-Tuberculosis Association has existed since November, 1913, whereby the Red Cross has assisted In financing the state supervising nurse, Mrs. Elizabeth Soule. In September a state bureau of nursing was created by the commissioner of health and Mrs. Boule was chosen as director of this bureau. In Idaho the Anti-Tuberculosis Asso ciation and the Red Cross are anxious to formulate a working plan whereby a supervising nurse can be Jointly financ ed. A very capable public health nurse Is now under consideration. Since December, 1919, the Anti-Tuberculosis Association of Oregon and the Red Cross have maintained a splen . did working plan whereby the Red Cross assists In financing the state su pervising nurse who Is also director of the bureau of nursing under the state board of health. This office supervises the work of the Red Cross nurses In her state as well as those employed un der the Anti-Tuberculosis Association. -Better to Build Up Cheap Roads By Constant Care It is better to build a cheap road and keep It In good condition by adequate maintenance than to build the most ex pensive highway and permit It to dete riorate for want of care, say officials of the Bureau of Public Roads of the Uni ted States Department of Agriculture. Maryland, which has one of the finest systems of improved highways In the United States, If not the best, has con sistently followed this practice. The originally Improved roads In Maryland were comparatively Inexpensive costing only what the taxpayers were willing to pay for. The first few years the av erage eost was less ttyin 110,000 a mile. In some cases the work entailed con siderable grading and drainage, but In others It amounted simply to resurfac ing the old turnpikes, which had al ready been graded and drained. Generally the roads built at that time war macadam, 12 feet wide and ? Inches thick. Soon the width was In creased to 14 feet Later many were widened still farther, some very suc cessfully, by adding concrete shoulders on each side of the existing macadam This method of Improving roads makes VP a ' i -iWm inrerinr ss"W ,'VL,IV"X AGIGM1 (0 SALE of Foodstuffs, Clothes, Shoes Blankets and Merchandise, direct from the Unite dS tates War Department THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS WORTH OF NEW GOODS.
