The combines are running on the
Jeff Jones and Harry Rood farm and
good grain in being harvested. The
Rood place will not yield quite so well
as in former seasons owing to lack of
moisture, while the Jones grain is
turning out. a yield about up to the
average of good seasons. That section
was favored with a heavy shower of
rain early In the season, and it is
noted that wherever that struck the
yield is the best. The Jones grain
is now coming to the warehouse at
Heppner, as is also the grain from
the Ferguson place in Sand Hollow,
the trucks picking np the bags and
rushing them in almost as fast as
they are dumped by tbe combines.
District Attorney S. E. Notson went
to Portland Sunday to attend the
meeting of the republican state cen
tral com"mittee, and incidentally get
where the heat was more intense than
in his old home town though it was
not so cool here on Sunday. The gov
ernment weather bureau here report
ed 106 for Heppner, and Frank Gil
liam says this is the hottest ever re
corded in the city since the records
have been kept. We note from the
report, however, that there was com
plete harmony in the republican cen
tral committee meeting, regardless of
the hot weather prevailing in Port
land. Oscar Schaffer, Monument stock
man, was a visitor here on Friday and
Saturday, being called to the city on
business. It has been four years since
he visited here last, and he was quite
surprised to. see the improvements
that had been made in the meantime.
Like many other residents of north
ern Grant county, Mr. Schaffer would
like to see bettor road connections be
tween Heppner and Monument and
believes much of the trade of that sec
tion can be brought hero again when
he difficulties to travel are removed
by some permanent road construction.
Mr. and Mrs. Geo. D. Fell came up
from Portland on Saturday night and
are spending a short time in this city
while Mr. Fell attends to matters of
business. Mr. Fell states that people
suffered very severely at Portland on
Saturday, when the thermometer rose
to 104H in the shade, and it was nec
essary for many laborers on the docks
and in the warehouses to quit work
because of the heat. All records were
broken for a period of more than 50
years, according to reports, and Mr.
Fell believes that it never had been
so hot in the city bcToro.
Mrs. Ray Taylor and Miss Opal
Briggs departed for Portland Tuesday
evening. Mrs. Taylor took her young
son to the city for consultation with

Leonard Carlson was a Gooseberry
farmer in the city on Friday. Wheat
harvest begun in earnest on the Carl
son farm Monday and is now quite
general throughout the Gooseberry
and Eight Mile sections, with pros
pects that grain will turn out much
better than was expected. Mr. Carl
son was interesed in a road matter
before the county court, and hopes
to get a short piece of road built that
will put a number of the fanners in
his locality in direct connection with
the lone-Gooseberry market road.
Word was received here the first of

ATTENTION VETERANS.
Heppner Unit, American Legion
Auxiliary, wishes to call the attention
of veterans of the world war to legis
lation recently passed and supreme
court decisions recently rendered, af
fecting them.
First is the extension of time for
icinstating wartime insurance, grant
ed by congress just before adjourn
ment. The time is now extended to
July 2, 1927. As an additional feature
the issuance of what is known as five
year level term policies was author
ized. These policies, which cost about
half that of the converted policy, may
be converetd later into one of the six
forms of permanent life or endow
ment government policies. They were
designed to assist veterans who have
not up to this time been able to af
ford to carry one of the regular pol
icies. The state bonus law has also been
revised to permit those who in the
first instance were only entitled to
apply for a cash bonus to apply for
the full amount of the loan, the bonus
received being deducted with interest
at 4 from the amount of the loan.
A recent decision of the state su
preme court was to the effect that
members of the S. A. T. C. are en
titled to full benefits of the state loan
act.
Veterans should avail themselves
of these benefits. Full information
and assistance-in making your appli
cation will be given by the local post
of the American Legion.
