HILL HAYWOOD.
Ily A. S. Alters.
I hear it is said. Hill Haywood has fled.
To Petrograd over the deep.
If Hussia don't care, we'll Just leave
him there,
Hut doubt If she'll take him to keep.
If she'll oper her door, she can have
a lot more
or thn i w w rutin
If she wants a big dose, we can give
her a gross
of Uncle's home-made bitter pills.
of course such a pill, will cure or kill;
She can take them with no guarantee.
We have them because our Infernal
laws
Are made for the rich, not for me.
When Uncle awakes, and gets up and
shakes,
Hy rubbing his swollen, red eyes;
Perhaps he can see, he has been on a
spree,
And acted so very unwise.
The dope he has made, of the Hill Hay
wood shade,
I'ethaps he will put through the mill,
And a new kind of dope will come forth,
1 hope,
Far better than Illg Ilurly Bill.
Rut still 'tis a shame, that Hill gets the
blame,
When Uncle too often, I know,
Has catered to those, who wore the fine
clothes,
.Neglecting the "man with the hoe."
So let us be fair, to Hill over there,
Although he may not be a lamb,
lle'B a victim of flaws, contained In our
laws.
Turned out by our own Uncle Sam.
Shearers os Strike.
The sheepmen nnd the shearers have
not yet been able to agree on a price
for work this yar, asid as a result only
one outfit is now at work. Thoir ar
rangement calls fur payment at the
going wage when one Is established.
At the beginning of the season the
sheepmen talked 10c per head and the
shearers about 2nc. Since that time
they have been getting together, and
now It Is reported that the growers
have offered 1 fie, with the shearers
holding for 17 or 18c. The prices in
clude board, but the shearer to furnish
the plant.
Hoth sides have strong arguments In
their favor. The sheepmen point to the
price or lack of price for their pro
ducts, and the heavy losses they have
suffered.' The shearer calls attention to
the fact that his supplies cost as much
or more than ever. Certainly it is a
matter for reasonable compromise.

Our Standard Mu
Be Maintained
Through a period extending over several years, the Mor
row County Creamery Company has been laboring to place its
product on the market of Heppner and cities of the adjoining
territory. We are now pleased with the progress made, and
can say that the entire product, practically, of the Creamery
is going into the hands of the local merchants and to groceries
and general stores in a number of the neighboring commun-
iticc.
Our Aim Is to Keep Up the Standard
of Our Product
In order to do this, we must have pure, fresh cream that
tests up to the standard in butter fat. We are gratified to state
that in a very large measure we are receiving this consideration
at the hands of producers. We do not desire to turn down
any offerings, yet to maintain the standard set, we will be
compelled to do so. We should not be expected to buy small
offerings of cream that have been so long in accumulation that
the product has become rancid and is unfit for no other use
than to be poured into the gutter; hence we must refuse to
take such offerings in the future, purely as a matter of justice
to ourselves and to our customers, who have the right to de
mand of us the best product we can turn out.
This announcement will no doubt be received in the spirit
in which it is offered; we desire to get all the good, clean
butterfat that is produced in this territory and at all times will
pay the very highest market price for same. Please help us
to maintain our standard of excellence.

Real Printing Service
SERVICE that is not based upon price alone, but upon
the requirements and desires of each individual customer.
SERVICE that demands that each job be the best it is
possible to give for the purpose it is supposed to serve.
SERVICE that is possible because it is backed up by a
REAL printing plant not a collection of worn-out, obsolete
machinery and type a plant completely equipped with
modern machinery, each machine the best possible to pro
cure for the work which it is intended to perform, and
the latest faces of new type.
SERVICE at a price no greater than that of the ordin
ary brand of country printing. The price of G.-T. printing
is based upon the Franklin Printing Price List, the oue-price-everytliiiig-marked-in-plain-figures
idea applied to
printing, and insures a square deal to the customer as well
as the printer. It is used in over 10,000 printing plants all
over the United States.
