Mr. and Mrs. Vawter Crawford and
MU Margaret Crawford spent Mon
day at the home of Mr. and Mr a. J.
M. Spencer on lower Butter creek.
Down that way the ranch em are all in
the midst of putting- up their second
crop of alfalfa and the big hay stacks
are getting mighty numerous. The
second crop seems to be equally as
good as the first and is yielding well.
Wheat Is rolling off the holls down to
the Kcho market road, trucks being
used largely for transportation, and
all roads leading down to Butter creek
are now badly rutted and the dust is
deep. It will be a fine thing for the
people out that direction when the
Lexington market road fs completed,
and when this happens, large quanti
ties of the grain now going out to
Echo from Morrow county will come
to Lexington, The big melon crop
is just coming on in quantity pro
duction at Irrigon, and daily ship
ment! of watermelons musk melons
and cantaloupes are being mads both
east and west from that point on the
trains, besides what is leaving there
in trucks. This crop is very fine on
the project this season and the de
mand is (rood. Coming home that way,
the editor took on a supply for home
consumption from the patches of
Messrs. Grimm and Seaman.
M r. and M rs. Albert Adkins re
turned on Sunday from their vacation.
Mrs. Adkins has been visiting for the
past month or more at the home of
her parents at Gresham, and Mr. Ad
kins joined her two weeks ago. They
spent the most of his vacation visit
ing at Aberdeen and Hoquim where
Albert enjoyed himself going through
the big lumber mills and other 'manu
facturing plants of Grays Harbor.
Business conditions are good over
that way. Both Harley and Ralph
Adkins reside at Aberdeen, the for
mer holding a good position with the
railroad company in the union sta
tion, and the latter working in one
of the big mills.
R, H. Baldock, divsiion engineer for
the state highway department, with
headquarters at La Grande, was in
Heppner on Saturday, as was also
Sam H. Board man, who is now super
intendent of repair work on the Co
lumbia River highway and custodian
of state road machinery for this dis
trict Resurfacing of the Columbia
River highway with crushed rock is
now going on in the vicinity of Cas
tle Rock, where a large camp of work
ers is established.
While on their way to Portland on
Friday last, Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Bar
rett and Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Cohn of
this city were guests for a time at
the beautiful Columbia Gorge hotel,
a mile and a half west of Hood River.
This hotel occupies a tract of 74
acres overlooking the Gorge of the
Columbia river, and represents an -
penditure of 9400,000. It is becoming
a very popular stopping place for
tourists along the Columbia River
Highway.
Jasper V. Crawford of Heppner ar
rived in Joseph Sunday and will re
main here a few weeks. The young
man Is a nephew of ye editor and like
all the rest of the male members of
the tribe is a newspaperman. He will
be printer and scribe on The Herald
while the editor takes a turn at hoe
ing in the lettuce patch of the Joseph
Lettuce Growers club. Joseph Her
ald. Sam Hughes returned on Sunday
from Portland. He spent Buyers'
Week in the city and reports that
there was a very large gathering of
buyers in the city from points alt
over the Northwest. When he left
Portland, the city was thoroughly dec
orated with the emblems and tigers
of the D. O. K. K. in honor of the
convention that is on there this week.
Rev. J. C. Youel and wife of Dallas,
Ore., art guests at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. A. M. Phelps in this city,
while enjoying their vacation. Mr.
Youel is pastor of the Presbyterian
church at Dallas, and preached at
Bethel chapel in this city Sunday
morning and at the Christian church
Sunday evening. Mrs. Youel Is ft sis
ter of Mr. Phelps.
J. E. Siraonton and wife were vis
itors in the city for a few hours on
Saturday. He is moving along with
the combining of his big wheat acre
age and the grain is making 28 bush
els. Mr. Simonton, who farms out in
the Alpine section, will thresh a to
tal of 1300 acres this season, and will
be some busy man when wheat haul
ing begins.
Chas. Thomson and family returned
home from Portland the first of the
week. Mr. Thomson was one of the
many merchants of the Northwest
taking In Buyers' Week. Just how
he could resist the temptation of
staying this week and attending the
big doings of the Dokies, is more
than we can understand.
Rev. W. O. Livingstone departed
for San Juan Island. Wash., Monday,
to join Mrs. Livingstone and Miss Lois
who have been there for several
weeks. He will spend the most of
two weeks vacationing in that part
of the Puget Sound and on his return
home will be accompanied by his wife
and daughter.
J. W. Morrow, with the O.-W. R. k
N. Co. at Portland, took a short lay
off the first of last week and spent
several days of his vacation in the
"old home town." He always feels
that a visit to Heppner is just com
ing home, and his many friends here
are glad to give him the hand of wel
come. Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Keithley of Pen
dleton were week end guests at Chief
Joseph Resort. Mrs. Keithley spent
two weeks in the county during July
and was so enthusiastic about the
mountains and lake that she induced
Mr. Keithley to drive over for a short
visit. Joseph Herald,
Hynd Bros, have completed putting
up the second crop of alfalfa at their
Rose Lawn ranch in Sand Hollow.
They finished on Friday and pro
nounce the second crop much better
than the first. Geo. D. Anderson and
Bill Perry assisted in the work.
Wm. H. Padberg, perhaps the larg
est wheat farmer in Morrow county,
was taking a little recreation on Sat
urday and spent a few hours in Hepp
ner. The harvesting of the grain at
the Padberg ranch is moving along in
good shape.

from Portland. He took his little son

Why the Good Old
Remington Pump Gun Still Outsells all Others
There's a new 20gauge model, too the best
of the lighugauge guns See it at your dealer's
A SK any of your friends who shoot a
XX Remington 12 -gauge Pump Gun
there are lots of them what it is that
has made this the favorite 12-gauge
ever since Remington brought it out in
1900 the irsf solid-breech hammer
less repeating shotgun ever produced.
Or better yet if he'll let you bor
row his Model 10 and take it out in the
fields or down by the water for an after
noon and try it for yourself.
Fire arms experts always comment on
the precision and finish of the Model 10
the result of 245 separate inspections
in the Remington plant.
And they remark that the receiver is
machined out of solid steel instead
of made of stamped steel metal or a
cored casting as is done with many shot
guns. But the man who goes out for a day's
sport or to get a few ducks or rabbits for
supper isn't so apt to say anything
about these technical features.
He'll tell you that the Remington
Model 10 shoots harder and straight
er than any other 12-gauge he ever had
in his hands, has an action that never
balks or clogs and seems to get better
the longer he uses it.
If you're in line for something
specially good in a 20-gauge
Get your dealer to show you the new
Remington Model 17. This is a ham
merless, solid-breech pump action, too.
Chambered for inch shells which
gives it the power and range of a 16
gauge. It is comparatively new but
already many old-timers swear by it as
a "real man's gun."
The first time you get a chance go to
the gun rack at the store and look at
these Remingtons. Your dealer will be
glad to tell you anything you want to
know about them.
