C. M. Simi arrived from Med ford
on Monday, and on Tuesday he en- j
tered the Heppner surgical hospital ;
and was operated on for appendicitis, j
The attack took him raher suddenly, !
though Mr. Sims hai been a sufferer
from the trouble for several years.
He is now doing well and his recov
ery from the operation is but ajnat
te of a few days. Mr. Sims is now
connected with a bank at Medford
and will be joined there by his fam
ily juitt as soon as he can pet a resi
dence In which to live. Mrs. Sims
and the children have been visiting at
Heppner for the past two weeks, be
ing guextfi at the home of Dr. and
Mrs. A. D. McMurdo.
Judge and Mrs. W. T. Campbell,
their Aon Arthur Campbell, and Stan
ley Minor returned on Sunday from
their Ashing trip and outing at East
lake, over in the Deschutes country.
They had splendid fishing and landed
some of those big, fat brook trout
for which the lake Is famous. Stan
ley, who for the first time had the
privilege of finning for the trout in
the lake, landed the biggent one and
had to have assistance in bringing
the fish to the net. He greatlyl en
joyed the sport and hopes to be able
to make the trip again another sea
son, F. L. Harwood, local jeweler, has
added greatly to his ntock of music
and musical Instruments, carrying
double the stock he had formerly. He
finds that the demand for the Cheney
phonograph is growing and is look
ing forward to the disposing of a
number of these popular machines as
trade picks up. Sheet music and all
of the latest records can be had at
the Harwood store and the music
room is a delightful place in which
to spend a few moments in rest these
warm days. Drop in and hear some
of the late records.
Dr. Henry Rasmus and wife and
sister, Mrs. Lena Bradbury of Glen
dale, Calif., while on their return
home from a visit at Spokane, reach
ed Heppner on Tuesday and remained
over until today, visiting with Frank
and J. 0. Ftaxmua, nephews. Dr. Ras
mus was formerly pastor of the
Mcthodint church at this place, hav
ing resided here for several years,
and he greatly enjoyed the time spent
in Heppner with old-time friends.
District Attorney S. E. Notson is
confined to his home this week, suf
fering a severe attack of lumbago.
Coming just at this time ft may pre
vent Mr. Notson from taking his con
templated trip to Vancouver, R. C,
along with Sheriff McDuffee to attend
the convention of the law enforce
ment offictuls of the Pacific North
west. However, his recovery may be
accomplished in time for his attend
ance upon this meeting.
I. A. lU'dnaul whs down from the
If aril man country Tuesday. He says
that part of the county will certain
ly harvest a very abundant crop of
grain this season, and they certainly
need It as the past two seasons at
least have been lean ones. No dam
age from the heavy rains in that part
of the county and the grain received
much benefit. Harvest will begin
about August 1st.
John Rellenbrock is over from his
Cottonwood ranch this week. He re
ports that they had a very heavy
cloudburst out his, way one duy last
week, and that the water came down
Cottonwood in far greater volume as
a result than passed through Hepp
ner ot the time of our disastrous
flood. He saw them both and feels
justified in making this statement.
Rethel Sunday school held a picnic
and social on the lawn at the home
of Mrs. Olive Frye on Thursday af
ternoon last, at which time there
were some 75 people present and en
joyed the hospitality of Mrs. Frye
as well as a splendid program and
picnic dinner which consisted of
chicken and numerous other goodies.
H. H. Engleman of Kellogg, Iowa
spent several days here the past
week, visiting with his father, Dan
Engleman, who he found to be quite
improved in health. Mr. Engleman
is engaged in farming in Iowa and
states that they are harvesting abun
dant crops there this senson. He for
merly lived here.
Numerous victors to the moun
tain retreats up Willow creek on
Su idy were pretty well wet up by
the shower of rain that fell in that
locality late in the afternoon.
Survey Being Made of
Agricultural Production
County Reaoama WH Be Tabulated
by O. A. C. Extension Service
for Later Reference
What can and should be dona to
make Oregon's agriculture more pros
perous? With that question in mind
the college extension service is mak
ing preparation for the agricultural
economic conference to be held here
the third week in January next.
Paul V. Marls, director of the ex
tension service, recently returned
from a trip to Washington, D. C,
where he conferred with officials of
the United States Department of Ag
riculture on matters of general in
terest to Oregon. Among other
things he arranged for the services
of a statistician who will assist the
extension service In analyzing the
agriculture of each county in order
to determine just what acreage is
devoted to each crop, the total pro
duction of that crop, and the per
centage of total agricultural produc
tion of the county ft represents. This
man, Mr. E. Merritt of the State Re
lations service, has arrived in Cor
vatlia to take up this study and has
brought with him nation wide and
world wide statistics on agricultural
products grown commercially In Ore
gon. The results of this study will
be presented to the coming confer
ence for consideration along with
other factors that might influence
modifications of Oregon's agriculture
called for in the development of the
state's soil and climatic resources.
Summer Fruit Pruning
Is Aid to Wood Growth
Good Winter Thinning Is Recom
mended to Develop Fruit Spun
and Help Fruit Buds
Summer pruning of fruit trees to
produce fruit spurs or fruit buds
is not recommended as a general
practice by the O. A. C. experiment
station. It has been practiced by a
good many growers but results have
been more or less erratic.
Unless the operator knows positive
ly that the reaction to summer prun
ing in any particular planting does
seem to increase the fruit spurs and
fruit production he will not general
ly find it of any advantage except
to develop the vegetation growth.
Greater value can be had by a good
thinning out of the tree, leaving it
open for entrance of sunlight and air
to develop new fruit spurs and in
vigorate those present, providing a
full supply of spurs and buds for a
good crop.
A good thinning out will undoubt
edly do more good to the tree in win
ter than by pruning In the summer. A
