George A. Manefteld and wife, of
Madford, were in thia city over Mon
day, arriving hare Sunday. Mr. Mana
Held, who ia a candidate for tha dem
ocratic nomination aa U. 8. Senator,
talked to a gathering of the cititeni
at Hotel Heppner on Monday ve
ning, outlining hia pollciea and mak
ing promisee aa to what will be done
in case he should ultimately reach
tha halls of congress in Washington.
Ha departed on Tuesday for other
points on tha line of his itinerary,
not revealing to thia paper any idea
whatsoever of hia chances for nom
ination in a field where there are at
least three other very worthy and
deserving brethren, so we are not
able to impart any information as to
Just how far Mr. Mansfield thinks he
will get in tha race.
R. H. Quackenbush la engaging
quite extensively In the chicken but!
ness on hia Rhea creek farm. He is
producing large numbera of White
Leghorn chicks and disposing of them
immediately after hatching. Several
hundred day-old chicks have already
teen sold to his neighbors and at the
present time Mr. Quackenbush has
lbOO eggs in hia incubators. Tha past
aeaaon baa been aplandid for the
chicken business, and barring some
blustery weather since the first of the
present month, there has been noth
ing to hinder successful production.
Mr. Quackenbush was doing business
In town on Monday, accompanied by
hia wife.
Marshall Phelps came in from Bend
Tuesday evening and will spend
ahort vacation at the home of his
parents, Mr. and Mra. A. M. Phelps
Ha has been granted a vacation of
two weeks by the lumber eompany
for which he works at Bend. Condi
tions over that way are very fair,
Marshall statea, though it ia notice
able that there baa been a slacking
up in tha demand for lumber and
ahipments are not ao big as former
ly. There is a reduction, also, in the
number of men employed in the
camps, but this has probably reached
the point where it will remain fixed
for some time to come.

completion of the well on his wheat
farm northeast of Lexington. At
depth of 168 feet, Mr. Edwards, the

good water, and he thinks that an ar-
tesian flow would have been struck by
going deeper. Mr. Humphreys Is
well satisfied, however, with the pre
aent volume of water and will put
in hia pump and supply the ranch
with all the water that is needed.

FARM POINTERS
A good grazing practice on Oregon
pasture lands is to keep the stock
off the grass in the spring untli it
has a start. Routing grazing
different pastures each year to allow
for this growth is most desirable,
saya the Oregon station. Overstock
ing on grazing lands is "killing the
goose that lays the golden egg." Profit
in beef or mutton production depends
upon ample grass. An important step
in good grazing practices is to allow
some grass to go to seed every third
or fourth year.
For thia year 'a potato crop success
ful Oregon growers select tracts as
far as possible that have not been
in potatoes for three years. They
give this part of the operation great
care, explains H. P. Barss, plant path
ologist of the experiment station.
Potato diseases accumulate rapidly
in the soil where crop rotation is not
practiced.
Meat consumption can be best sta
bilized If producers will pay closer
attention to the quality of stock they
produce. Off grade animals produce
off grade meat, which is not readily
consumed as good quality stuff.
Dipping the sheep soon after shear
ing is recommended as good Oregon
practice by the state college exten
sion service. It reduces the eost of
dipping, keeps ticks off the lambs
and increases the size and quality of
the next aeason's clip.
Summer pasture for young pigs is
being arranged by forward-looking
Oregon growera. Rape or grain for
pasture is recommended by the col
lege extension service where alfalfa
is not grown.

service counts too
Equally important with the quality of Zero
lene, which we believe to be the best oil made
for the lubrication of the modern automobile,
whether of eastern or western origin and irre
spective of price, is the service offered by over
700 Standard Oil Company Service Stations and
thousands of Zerolene dealers throughout the
Pacific Coast states.
A recent letter from the Del Monte Properties
Company, Del Monte, Calif, makes this point:
"We operate a fleet of twelve Winton cars in the
guest passenger service in addition to quite a fleet
of commercial type vehicles, ranging all the way
from Fords to five-ton Packard trucks, all of which
are lubricated with the Zerolene oils and greases
supplied by your company.
"The uniformly prompt and courteous treatment
which we have received in connection with this
service is a credit to your organization and it is put
ting it mildly indeed to state that
our experience both with your prod
ucts and service has been highly
satisfactory."
Big users don't pay tribute to the
superstition that there is some
thing mysteriously "better" about
"eastern" oils just because they
cost more why should you?
Insist on Zerolene, even if it does
cost less.
Change now to the
brand that never
changes and you'll
never change again.
