Local supporters of the Umatilla
rapid project are jubilant over the
success attainted. They have been
preatly favored by the turn of event
which has allowed the Umatilla rap
ids project to ride through congress
in the same vehicle with the larger
Columbia basin bilL The Columbi
bain organisation has had a total of
over KOO.000 with which to work and
only a little over $1400 has been ex
pended in promoting the Umatilla
rapids project However, the rapids
project has gone through congress
on equal terms and proportionately
receives more money for a survey
than does the Columbia basin enterprise.
Cooperative Wool Grow
ers Distribute $200,000
The Pacific Cooperative Wool Grow
ers in January distributed wool pay
ments amounting to $200,000 to twelve
hundred Western Oregon wool grow
ers. In December, the association
distributed $$0,000 to wool growers
residing in Idaho. Washington, and
Eastern Oregon. In November it sent
out $44,000 to some four hundred
growers representing sales of its
graded mohair. There will still be
another substantial payment before
the entire 1922 pool is finally closed.
These wools are graded, some being
scoured, by the association, and mar
keted in an orderly manner through
out the year. As a result member
growers will receive several cents per
pound more than was obtainable for
mixed, ungraded wools at shearing
time. This margin ranges from three
to twelve cents per pound depending
npon the grade of wool.
The Pacific Cooperative Wool Grow
ers sold wool for the highest price
west of Ohio in 1922, when one car
load of Southern Oregon fine, half,
and three eights sold for 61, 52 and
62H cents per pound respectively.
On the finer and medium grades the
association average prices established
new high points for Oregon wools in
1922. Over half a million pounds of
wool were sold at these prices.
Growers of good wool received sub
stantially more through the associa
tion's grading process, as the wool
soid on its merits, for actual value.
Wool manufacturers and wool grow
ers believe the educational value of
grading and marketing the clip in the
best known merchanable condition,
as carried on by the association is
worth thousands of dollars to the
wool industry of the Northwest, The
association, whose headquarters is in
Portland, represents 22iK wool grow
ers residnig in Oregon. Washington,
Idaho and northern California.

Hotbed Making and Care
Is Garden Work for Feb.
Construction and maintenance of
hotbeds is part of the February work
in vegetable gardening. A heating
manure pile is capable of giving off
a high temperature, up to 175 degrees
Fahrenheit. This manure when put
below six inches of soil will warm
the soil as well as the atmosphere of
the bed covered with a glass sash.
Not less than 8 inches of manure
should be used. The manure must
not be wet when put in the pit, but
evenly fermenting after several days
forking over to make the heating
uniform.
Complete directions for making
such a bed are obtainable free of
charge in circular form from the O.
A. C. Extension service, CorvaUis,
Oregon. In such a seed bed would be
sown head lettuce, cabbage, cauli
flower, and tomatoes. Each of these
vegetables is handled in a definite
way so that a large vigorous seedling
may be grown to set in the field or
home garden.

Mr. and Mrs. George Peck of Lex
ington were in the city for a short
time today. They were accompanied
by Ws W. Riley, an uncle of Mrs.
Peck, who has been spending a month
or more visiting with relatives in the
t acthc coast country. He spent some !
time in California in the vicinity of i
Los Angeles, and is now on his return j
home, expecting to leave in a day of
two tor nerce, Nebraska, where he re
sides and is engaged in farming and
stockraismg. Mr. Riley was quite
well impressed with this part of the
eounrty, tho not seeing it to the best
advantage.
Looking to enlarging his stock, M.
L. Case has put in a deck on the north
side of his store room, and extended
the same across the front to meet up
with the deck on the south side. This
increases his floor space about 1000
square feet and he expects that it
will be needed when his new stock
arrives.
Painters have been busy this week
kalsomining the middle store room
of I. O. O. F. building, which is to be
occupied by a cafeteria grocery soon
after the first of the coming month.
FARM POINTERS
(Farm Notes from O. A. C. Exp. Station)
An incubator should be run for
several days and correct adjustments
made before eggs are put in. The
temperature should be held at ap
proximately 102 degrees F. through
out the first week of incubation. The
temperatures for running the incu
bator as given out by the manufac
turer of the machine should be fol
lowed carefully, as in all tests this
has been found to be the most satis
factory condition.
It costs no more to keep a good
bull than it does a poor one. If the
good bull cobU $100 core than the
inferior one, one daughter from him,
with an increased annual production
of only 15 pounds of butterfat over
that of her dam, will pay six per cent
on the increased investment.
Serious outbreaks of fire blight may
be expected if spring conditions are
favorable unless thorough cutting out
of all hold-over cankers in root,
crown, trunk and limb is done before
spring. The fight to eradicate the
disease is a community problem.
HOME POINTERS.

Do you walk 181 miles a year in
setting the table? A woman in Wash
ington found Fhe did. She reduced
the distance 165 miles by using a
wheel tray.
Do you use your dress form? It
saves Lime and labor in fitting un
derwear, blouses, skirts and dresses,
and in designing collars and draped
costumes.

Does It Pay?
Advertising has made the Victrola dog
famous.
It has made the cash register a big brother
to retailers all over the world.
. It has introduced the world to a substitute
for sole leather.
It is displacing the truck horse with 40
hosepower trucks.
It has helped you to an appreciation of
Stetson hats, Walk-Over, Douglas and Em
erson shoes.
It has made the hand-written letter an
oddity in business.
It has put hair oil on heads where no hair
oil would do any good, and on heads where
no hair oil was needed.
It has put Castoria down your throat, left
bristles in your gums, and then came along
with a Rubber-set and took them out.
It has put Zozodont, Pebeco and Pepso
dent on your teeth.
It has put a Gillette against your hayfield.
It has put Murine in your eye, sold you
Cuticura for pimples, Pears for the bath
and Ivory for the tub.
It has put Arrow collars around your
neck and Ingersols aroung your wrist.
It has jammed your feet in Holeproof sox,
put Paris garters on your legs, and Tiffany
rings on your fingers.
It has stuck Robert Burns cigars between
your teeth, worn out your jaws on Wrigley's
and posted you on what to buy to cure corns,
warts, bunions and ingrowing toe nails.
Go anywhere you want to, do anything
you wish, and advertising has had a hand in
it absolutely.
And then some people ask "DOES AD
VERTISING PAY?"

ROBBERS!!
Robbers do not disturb people who have nothing.
A man with a thousand dollars in the bank and
only a check book in his pocket has nothing for
robbers to take; yet his check is as good as the
money which his neighbor carries in his pocket.
It is not safe to carry money on your person
when among strangers. Neither is money safe
, in the house. Money in the bank is safe and is
always available by means of a check book. And
this assurance of safety costs you nothing.
We invite you to place your money with us on
checking account. We offer a safe and conven
ient place of deposit.
