A numlxr of farmers from Lexing
ton and lone tactions war In Hepp
ner on Monday and Tuesday, looking
after seed wheat. They report that
from present indications much re
seedine; will hare to be done, and the
outlook is far from good. Farmers
from Heppner flat and other southern
portions of the county, howerer,
seem to think little, if any, damage
was done wheat by the aero weath
er, and that the grain will come along
all right One party from Lexington
who had over BOO acres seeded and
up well before the freete eame, seems
to be of the opinion that he will have
to Veseed all except what he had in
Turkey, and thinks this may be In
jured, Joe Devine, who has had a lot
of experience is quite positive that
the most of the grain out that way
will have to be reseeded. At any
rate, there was quite a rush on for
seed wheat here and the supply Is
short. Should the predictions prove
true, it is indeed a hardship to the
farming community. We sincerely
hope that the condition is not as bad
as indicated.
Mr. and Mrs. C. G. Shaw and Mr.
and Mrs. Elmer Gosney of Portland
drove to Heppner on Saturday, ar
riving here between 10 and 11 o'clock
in the evening. They made a "fash
ionable" call on Mrs. E. Ranck, moth
er of Mrs. Shaw and Mr. Gosney, and
remained until about 2 o'clock Sun
day afternoon, when they returned
to their homes In the city. They had
no Intention of coming this far when
they left home, but the traveling was
so good that they could not resist
coming on to Heppner, even though
their stay would have to be short.
P. A. Anderson was called east last
week by the serious illness of his
mother at her home in South Dakota.
Mrs. Anderson was suffering from an
attack of pneumonia and word reach
ed here just after Mr. and Mrs. An
derson had left for The Dalles to
spend the Christmas. Before Mr.
Anderson could be reached, however,
he had gone on to Portland from
which point he took the train east.
His mother died Sunday according
. to word sent relatives here and was
buried yesterday at Aberdeen. She
was Tat 73 years of age.
It is not believed that wheat has
been Injured much by the cold weath
er, though all wheat growers do not
wholly agree to that, states the Con
don Globe-Times. But where true
winter wheat has been sown there is
no liklihood of serious damage. In
those sections where Federation and
Jenkins are grown thj sub-sero
weather may impair the stand. It is
feared by some that wheat which has
not made sufficient growth will be
damaged.
The Misses Vera and Kathleen Ma
honey and Phillip Mahoney and Peter
Kilkenny were outgoing passengers
on Sunday's stage. Their destination
was Seattle where all are attending
the University of Washington, except
Miss Vera Mahoney, who is taking a
position with a firm in the city as
amanuensis.

gene on Sundsy after having spent a
week of his vacation season with the
home folks here. He resumes his

This Week's Cross Word Puzzle

you'll find No. 6, horizontal, does not automatically work itaelf out. Inatead
you'll have to do a bit of thinking.
Why don't you arrange a cross-word puiile and send it in to this news
paper? Once you have arranged one. you'll have more respect for the per
severance and intelligence necessary to arrange these putxlei which we pub
lish weekly. It's no easy job, but it's educational and interesting. It makes
you think. Answer to this puzxle will be published next week. Also another
dandy new puzxle.'

This lost business goes either
to his competitor down the street,

that the goods they bought "un
