At their mcetinp on the twenty-first

what they believe to be the best pos
sible hay marketing contract for the
Orecon district. They believe it so
firmly that they have preceded with the
incorporation of the organisation so
that they can po ahead with the mar
keting of hay with this or some other
contract. The fact that the articles of
incorporation are filed was necessary
in order to enable the association to
po ahead with immediate development
at the time of the annual meeting in
May but does not in any sense bind the
grower to accept the contract brought
in. Those who have shown their faith
by their work in this matter and have
signed the articles of incorporation are:

"Good Harness" Cheap.
The state Farm 1'ureau is in a posi
tion to furnish government harness
which cost the government during the
war $i35 00 per set This same har
ness will cost laid down to the bu er
;r. Morrow county, depending on how it
is shipped, somewhere from $47 to JTia.
The shipping weight is SO pounds per
set If your old harness is still good
you will undoubtedly try to make it
last as long as possible, if. however,
you are compelled to buy new harness
this season, you will do well to inves
tigate this. We have asked to have
a sample set sent to this office for
inspection. If interested notify the
County Agent and he will notify you as
soon as it arrives. This is a consider
able saving over any harness price that
we have seen quoted in anybody's catalogue.
Object of Aworlattoa.
1. The object of the Oregon Hay
Growers association, which it is recom
mended by Br. Hector McFherson it
be named, is to feed to the hay market
a steady stream of hay Just as fast but
no faster than there is a real demand
for it
2. To provide uniform rules and reg
ulations for the grading of hay so that
every grower will know what he Is
selling and every buyer will know what
he Is buying. This is certainly a very
important matter.
S. They will equalize the price re
ceived by the local grower and will
also equalize and stabilize the price to
be paid by the outside purchaser.
4. They expect to provide a selling
agency. The local manager will have
charge of the sale during the coming
season. Any possibility of competition
between Oregon and Yakima points will
be worked out through a Joint commis
sion for this purpose. This commission
is already at work on this end of the
game.
C. The division of marketing terrl-j
tory will be carefully worked out and!
every district given Its proper consid
eration. Flaaace.
The financing of this organization
will be slightly different from the Ore
gon Grain Growers. While the control
and marketing of the hay will be In the
hands of the organization, the grower
Is in no way prevented from mortgag
ing his hay and the association under
takes to act as the growers agent In
securing loans on the hay when prop
trly prepared for market and stored in
a warehouse for shipment.
Pooling Plan to Be Adopted.
This will be a compulsory pooling
plan contract. Under this plan every
ton of hav of the same grade In the
association will receive the same price
per ton net to the grower f. o. 0. ship
ping point. This is regardless of date
of sale. The contract of the delivery
and sale of the hay Is absolutely in the
hands of the management of the organ-
tion. This, however, is worked out on
a plan that is equitable and fair to
the grower himself.
Any carry over of hay is taken care
of so that no one grower has to shoul
der the load of carrying his hay
through. This will be borne equitably
by the entire association.
Any waste hay that may develop can
belong to the grower, or in the event
that there is enough to Justify, of hay
of quality not suitable for market the
organization can, if they should see
fit, feed this hay to cattle which are
brought in for this purpose.
In the event that a market did not
develop for all the hay and it was ap
parent that a carry over would be nec
essary the organization will be in a
position if found desirable to go out
and buy cattle to feed out of the better
grades cf hay.
Storage.
The storage of hay under this plan
will be handled through local ware
houses wherever possible. It Is plan
ned that if the directors find It desirable
they can go ahead with the construc
tion of warehouses. To pay for the
same they will Skug preferred stock.
This preferred stork 'ill be redeemed
through the regular percentage deduct
ed from the growers net return and this
deduction will be covered by growers
preferred slock, so that any deduction
given by the grower for the develop
ment of warehouses or other necessary
applianres, the grower will receive
thereupon an agreed rate of Interest
It is further provided that when a
n.en-1 t?r ceases to r:ilfe hay or control
land raising hay that he may withdraw
from the association and receive for
Ms interest therein the book value of
Ms stock, m
The membership fee will be one dol
lar with an organization fee for five
dollars fcr the first twenty acres and
If the grower has more than twenty
acres In alfalfa the organization fee
will be ten dollars.
It is hoped that by very careful man
agcmerit the membership ff;PB and or
gtttiir.ntlon f'je will be sufficient to pro
vide the initial expense of setting the
organization up In business. If this is
dime, however, they will be far more
fortunate than either the Oregon or
Washington Grain growers. However,
there are nome chances in their favor.
This contract if accepted at the an
nual meeting will go Into effect when
four thousand acres of hay has been
signed up.
We believe that this is a splendid
contract The contract Is for three
Example of Good Fanning.
D. L. Misner who farms a large acre
age near lone has set a good example
during the last twelve months to his
neighbor farmers. Last spring he fin
ished plowing 1750 acres by he 10th
day of April, this he seeded and kept
clean from weeds all during the fall
season and finished seeding the entire
acreage before the last day of October,
I and has a splendid stand of grain. This
spring ne weni on uener. rce iimsnvu
plowing S00 acres of land on the Inst
day of March. Mr. Misner believes In
.rood plowing and he says besides fin
ishing early that he dfd not pay out
one cent for hired help to do this work.
We say for Mr. Misner that that is
going some. There is something mys
terious about this and if we get a
chance we mean to ask his wife how
it was done.

DOUGLAS FAIRBANKS in
THE KNICKBOCKER BUCKAROO
If you were trying to get away from the sherilT, would you hide on the roof
of the jail? That's what Douglas Fairbanks did in "The Knickerbocker Buck
aroo,'' and he got away with it and with the most beautiful girl in Mexico in the
bargain. Life on Broadway was tiresome, so Teddy Drake became a wild West
erner a real wild man in Did Mexico. What made. him wild was the troubles
he encountered when be tried to help other folks out of their troubles. Douglas
Fairbanks does the helping hand stunt and a lot of others, in "The Knicker

"THE BOOMERANG"
With HENRY B. WALTHALL
The most discussede picture in America. The most timely story ever filmed. A
tensely dramatic portrayal of love, intrigue, capital and dissatisfied
labor. Seven reels of punch.
Henry H. Walthall, who has often been proclaimed the screen's greatest act
or, is seen in flue of his finest roles in the thrilling, daring and epoch making sev
en part special photodraina, "The Boomerang." To see this great picture is to
learn at first hand of the labor conditions in this country, to witness the unfold
ing of a most interestitng story of love and intrigue and to enjoy acting of the
very finest kind. Throughout this stupendous production treating of a subject
that is being discussed all over. the country, there runs a most delightful love tale
Farm Bureau Wheat Plots.
The Morrow County Farm Bureau has
a number of demonstrations of wheat
for the IV1 harvest.
Ed Gillespie on Rhea creek is trying
out forty-fold against Hybrid 12S.
Richard Peterson in Gooseberry has
forty-fold which he is trying against
turkey-red. L. Redding in Eight Mile I
has the same.
Theo. Anderson In Eight Mile has Hy
brid 12S trying against Turkey-red. E.
M. Hulden on Black Horse has the same.
Andy Rood Jr. has turkey-red, hy
brid, and forty-fold.
Oscar Keithley is trying turkey-red
against forty-fold, and also trying blue
stem against baart and federation.
Mr. Vance on Earnest Mover's place
is trying federation, bluestem and
baart.
John Weldenan has turkey-red
against hybrid 128.
Fred Raymond on the Lee Padberg
place has something new in Morrow
county. He is trying out triplet
against turkey-red. Triplet offers con
siderable promise of a good yield.
Herb Olden has hybrid 63 against
turkey-red.
John Nolan, lone, hag federation
which he is trying out against blue
stem. Sam Turner at the head of Sand Hol
low has a demonstration of turkey
against hybrid and forty-fold. This
.is a continued demonstration from last
year.
This last year the style changed on
prices of grain and for quite a while
there was no market apparently for
turkey-red wheat. Now this spring they
are selling on the same basiB again.
We have always contended that no
farmer should change seed simply be
cause of the difference in price between
various varieties. The styles In price
change like the styles on women's hats.
The buyers are always willing to pay
the highest price for what the people
have the laast of. The only reliable
way to do Is to raise the wheat that
will produce the greatest number of
bushels per acre. This In the long run
will prove the most satisfactory way
to determine the variety to raise. We
think the O. C. G. growers will have
something to say about this.
Business by Long Distance
Telephone
There seldom is a business transaction between
men in different places that cannot be completed by
telephone and, in many instances, in less time than
it takes to dictate the average business letter.
Consider the time taken by correspondence and
the unavoidable dwlays of the mails. Try the long
distance telephone in your out-of-town business
transactions.
Kecent improvements in transmission have
made it possible to talk satisfactorily to any point in
this country. ,
Long-distance service is the direct and econom
ical method of communication and does away with
undue expense and delay.
