Movement of wheat from Eastern Oregon to Portland terminals this fall has been very slow in comparison with former seasons, farmers appar ently holding for higher prices. Ac tual prices to growers around Hepp ner, as reported to the State Market Agent's office, ranged from $1.30 to f 1.35. net, for Bluestem; Club and Fortyfold, 1.25 to $1.28; Turkey Red, $1.18 to $1.25. These differences were mostly on grades and wheat of good test weight and grade would run closer in price. For instance, the $1J8 lot of Turkey Red weighed 62 pounds to the bushel.

The sur prising thing is that farmers have so long permitted the middle interests to make what profits that are made on farm products. No other industry of power would year after year produce and sell at about coat and permit oth ers to resell the products at a sixty per cent advance. There is, no good reason on earth, says the market agent, why producers themselves can not handle their products all the way through to the consumer. There is no good reason why they cannot be their own middle men. When they do bring this about the bridge be tween grower and eater can be ma terially shortened and both classes be benefitted. Consumption of all farm products would greatly increase if prices to the consumer could be low eredif many of the unnecessary middle profits and expenses could be eliminated. If the farmer could re tain half of the profits that others make off his products he could make money. If the consumer could get the other half of profits in reduced prices, there would be greatly in creased buying. When farmers sol idly organize to sell their own goods they will have accomplished much for themselves. , "Regulating" Grain Gambling. . The newspapers state that the Chi cago Board of Trade has agreed to the plans of Secretary of Agriculture Jardine, and that wheat gambling will hereafter be restricted. A regu lation has been adopted that the board directors may place limit on how high or low prices may go, and that "heavy penalties are provided for anyone buying or selling above or below the limits set by the direc tors." State Market Agent Spence thinks that this is rather of a re markable proceeding on the part of the government. "Supposing that a gambling house in Portlan . would be given a license to play poker if the ante was restricted to two-bits, and if any of the boys went over the limit they would be penalised. This is about the substance of the 'regula tion' put on the Chicago Board of Trade; as I see it," he says. "Gamb ling on grain in Chicago is either all right or all wroug limiting the stakes doesn't change it." Fast Growing in Favor. Reports from growers, inspectors, county agents and retail merchants from different sections of the state are that the potato grading and in spection law is fast growing in favor as the people realize its benefits. The law simply requires an honest pack and any honest grower or dealer doesn't want any more. Growers compelled to grade their stock now realize what others have gained by- doing this for them.

Heppner, Lexington, ton If You Want to Look Like This Don't Smoke You are going to be disappointed when you look at the face in this Advertisement." It will be such a shock fro'm the type of Faces you always see in Advertisements. They generally get some Guys face to use in a Collar or Un derwear Ad that looks like he was just born for that Ad. You never see him in real life or any thing that ever looked like him. These "Bull" Durham people . conceived the idea of something new. They felt that you were tired looking at such handsome faces in Ads, it was so discour aging to men who looked at them because they knew they could never look like these fellows themselves. So they wanted a homely face that would be an inspiration to other homely men, (because there is a terrible lot of hard looking Birds among you readers). So after looking the World over they picked on me. I dont smoke "Bull" Durham, so the Moral is IF YOU WILL SMOKE IT, YOU WILL NEVER LOOK LIKE ME. , I am .the horrible example of a man not using it.
