ASKS LOCAL NEEDS
Ed F. Averill Visits Hepp
ner; Entertained With
Shoot and Banquet.
CHANGES PROBABLE
Morrow County May Hare Season
on "Huns"; Fish and Game
Work Explained.
Ed. F. Averill, state game warde
was a guest of Heppner Rod and Gun
club Saturday. Honoring his visit
the club held a shoot in the morning
and banquet in the evening. At the
banquet Mr. Averill made a speech
outlining the policy of the state game
commission, including a stirring ap
peal for good sportsmanship, and
sportsman cooperation in administra
tion of the state game laws.
It is the policy of the present
game commission to cooperate to the
fullest extent in filling the needs of
Oregon sportsmen, said Mr. Averill.
In line with this policy the warden
und commission are making as many
personal contacts as possible through
visiting different parts of the state
and receiving sportsmen's views first
hand. The commission also welcomes
letters from sportsmen.
In interviewing local sportsmen
Mr. Averill found that a majority be
lieve Hungarian pheasant to be nu
merous enough to justify an open sea
son on them in this county the com
ing year. Consequently there is lit
tle doubt but the open season for
"Chinas" next year will also include
"Huns." The sentiment of sports
men here also revealed that they fa
vor a 30-day open season on these
birds with shooting on Wednesdays
and Sundays each week, in place of
tho former 8-day season with daily
Bhooting. Mr. Averill believed Viis
could be arranged.
Other desires of the Heppner Rod
and Gun club made known at the ban
quet are: Bag limit of one mule deer
in place of the present two; increas
ed license fees for out-of-state hunt
ers (Mr. Averill said a bill was to
be presented to the coming legisla
ture sponsoring a $25 fee for non-re-.idonts)
; and fevor Morrow coun.
ty's quota of seed fish be planted in
North Fork of John Day river.
The last sentiment was expressed
after Mr. Averill's suggestion that
this be done, the reasons being given
as follows: By Morrow and other
nearby counties contributing all or
I art of their quota of seed fish to the
stream named, only a few years will
be required to make of it one of the
most attractive fishing streams in the
country, rivaling the McKenzie,
Rogue, and other far-famed streams
. to which sportsmen travel from all
over the world. Being easily nccossi
ble to Morrow county sportsmen, it
is believed the seed fish thus planted
would result in better fishing for
them than if the fish were planted in
local streams which dry up every few
yiars, killing the fish. Also planting
local streams means to a large ex
tent furnishing private fishing pre
serves for many landowners who pro
hibit fishing by the general public.
Mr. Averill said the commission is
now experimenting with planting
year-old fish instead of the former
minnows. That this is tho best ys
tern is undeniable, the only question
being the providing of facilities for
holding the fish the longer period. He
explained the reason for adoption of
this plan. All fish are cannibals, con
sequently the planting of minnows
but serves to feed the larger fish, and
very few of the minnows survive.
Fish held for a year in the hatcheries
attuin six or seven inches length and
when released into the streams are
fairly cnpabl" of taking care of them
selves with the result of a compara
tively low mortality rate.
An interesting bit of information
,3'iven by Mr. Averill was that con
cerning the fish in Oregon streams.
Practically all the game fish in Ore
gon come from the eggs of only two
species, he declared, those of the
Montana Speckled trout and the Rain
bow trout. Fish hatched from these
eggs attain but small proportions in
cold water and are known as brook
trout, while in warmer water they
rttain much larger size. Fish hatch
ed from Montana Brook eggs and go
ing to tho warmer water of lower re
gions are often caught as salmon
trout, while those from Rainbow eggs
go out to sea and are caught in the
form of Steelhead salmon.
Urging the sportsmen to cooperate
in enforcing game laws, Mr. Averill
pointed out that the laws are made
to protect the interests of the sports
men themselves and they are only
protocing their own interests in co
oarrating with their game wardens.
One of Oregon's greatest assets is
her wild life and it is to the interest
of all Orcgonians to ste that this as
set is properly protcctod.
DISLOCATES ELBOW IN FALL.
Mrs. Chas. Feldinan of near lone
buffered a severe fall on Tuesday and
the result was a dislocated elbow.
She was brought to Heppner for sur-i
giciil aid, and after taking an x-ray
picture of the injured btoi, Dr. John
ston reduced the dislocation and Mrs.
Foldman was able to return home.
The infant daughter of Mr. and
Mrs, Ralph Marlalt, so seriously ill
for the past two weeks with pleural
pneumonia, is now well on the road
to recovery. Mrs. Marlatt, also ser
iously 111, is improving, states their
jhysician, Dr. McMurdo.

Heppner Postoffice Shows
Large Gains for the Year
Postmaster Smead is feeling good
over the gain in business made by
tne Heppner postoffice for the year
1926 just closed. He has finished
getting the figures together, and the
showing is one to be proud of. In
fact, if the gain in business is main
tained until the close of the fiscal
year, June 30, 1927, the Heppner of
'Ice will be entitled to be placed
again in the column of second class
offices.
The figures for the year in total
dollars of business transacted came
to $8,184.83. The total for 1925 was
$7,160.00, lenving a gain for 1926 over
1825 of $1,024.83. The last quarter of
1925 showed a business of $1,961.42,
end the same period of 1926, $2,492.22
making a gain of $527.80. Business
for the Christmas season was much
greater than a year ago, and Mr.
Smead states that it was so well dis
tributed over the month of December
that jt caused the postoffice force no
worry whatever in handling the large
outgoing and incoming mails.

flunked out of the University this
fall term as compared with the same
period last year, when 93 were sent

Site of New Hospital
Unexcelled Anywhere
The site chosen for the new East
ern Oregon Tuberculosis hospital is
unexcelled by any site in the United
States, according to Mr. Jomieson
Marshall, who left Portland last
Thursday evening for Denver, Color
ado. Mr. Marshall spent nearly three
weeks in Oregon -assisting the Ore
gon Board of Control in the choice
of a site for the new sanatorium.
The choice was left by the Board of
Control in the hands of Dr. G. C.
Bellinger, superintendent of the pres
ent tuberculosis hospital at Salem,
and Mr. Marshall, architect and insti
tutional advisor for the National Tu
berculosis association. Marshall's
home is in New York City.
"Not even the Cragmor sanatorium
in Colorado Springs or the Trudeau
sanatorium at Saranac Lake, N. Y.,
can boast of a better location from
the standpoint of scenery, climate, or
accessibility," said Marshall in an
interview at the Multnomah hotel
Thursday afternoon. "Every conve
nience is to be had at The Dalles in
the way of transportation, water sup
ply, elecrtic current, sanitary facil
ities, markets, labor supply, recrea
tion and special medical service. A
view of unexcelled beauty may be had
of the Columbia river. It is espec
ially necessary for an Oregon hospi
tal to be located amid scenes of nat
ural beauty because Oregon patients
are accustomed to beautiful scenery
and would not be contented without
it."
As the time drew near for his de
parture Mr. Marshall admitted that
the charms of Oregon had taksn a
powerful hold on him. "I hope to
see the day," said Marshall, "whtn I
can come to Oregon and stay here the
rest of my life." 1

position netted $14,000.
Efforts to secure the remaining
$66,000 will be continued, Mrs. Ger
linger said, during the new year.
"Valuable gifts of art objects and
books have been given outright and
others will come by bequest to the
state, with the state university very
properly designated as the custodian.
The presence of all these objects of
beauty and historical significance will
be a tremendous stimulous to the
Fine Arst department and to cultur
al work at the University," Mrs. Gor
linger concluded.
Mildred Green, eldest daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Alex Green of this city,
who hus been very ill the past two
weeks or more, is reported by her
physician, Dr. Johnston, to be improving.
Famous Impersonator
To be Here for P.T.A.
An uncanny realism shines forth
fiom the art of Zellner, the Protean
Characterise whose "Flashes from
Life, Literature and History" will be
a red-letter entertainment feature
when he appears in Heppner on the
evening of January 26, under the
auspices of the Parent Teachers as
sociation. He is one of the platform's most
gifted characterists. He steps into
his characters in full make-up and
costume and does his work with such
lightning speed that one feels him
to be a sort of a magician as well as
an excellent artist in character por
trayal. . He carries elaborate sfik
.tage settings and uses lighting ef
fects for his program. Some of his
favorite impersonations are General
Robert A. Lee, Abraham Lincoln,
King Lear, Judas Iscariot, Theodore
Roosevelt, besides many characters
from life.
Heppner folk are urged to save
this date for one of the very best en
tertainments coming to the city in a
long time.

Mrs. Dean T. Goodman
Dies After Long Illness
Arriving home at Heppner on last
Thursday with her husband and
young son, Mrs. Dean T. Goodman
was taken suddenly seriously ill, it
being thought that the fatigue from
the journey from Portland to Hepp
ner brought on the attack. Both
Heppner physicians, Dr. Johnston and
Dr. McMurdo were called in attend
ance but no relief being had by Fri
day evening it was decided to return
with her to Portland, and they left
by train that night. Upon reaching
Fortland Saturday morning, and
while being transferred from the
train to the hospital, Mrs. Goodman
passed away. Funeral services were
held on Tuesday at 2:30 at the Fin
ley Chapel in Portland, and commit
ment was at Rose City cemetery.
Grace Ruth Goodman was 37 years
of age and is survived by her hus
band, Dean T. Goodman and one son,
Dean, Jr., of this city, besides her
mother, Mrs. Tilda E. Lindburg of
Portland and Mrs. Harry B. Witter,
a sister of Los Angeles. For the
most of the past year she has been
an invalid and had been at the point
of death several times from undergo
ing major operations. From these
she rallied, and had at last reached a
point where it was thought she might
return to her home at Heppner and
the journey was made the past week.
i lie indominitable will power of Mrs.
Goodman had worked almost miracles
n her recovery, yet her condition was
such that she could not overcome the
serious attack with which she was
taken on reaching here, and her death
resulted from an obstruction of the
upper bowel.
With her husband Mrs. Goodman
has been a resident of Heppner for
the past seven years, during which
time she made many fast friends, and
all join with the husband in sharing
his great sorrow.

ThisWeelt
By Arthur Brisbane
Good News.
Canals, Crops, Prosperity.
We Are Homogenous.
All Alike.
It's really a prosperous country we
live in, and the prosperity has only
commenced. Arthur Reynolds, able
Chicago banker, says our prosperity
will last through 1927. It will also
last through 1937 and beyond, if we
give it a chance, really work, and do
not cheat each other too much.
Revised Government reports on
crops put corn for this year at two
billion six hundred and forty-five mil
lion bushels, wheat at eight hundred
and thirty-two million three hundred
and five thousand bushels and forty
million bushels of rye, forty-one mil
lion bushels of rice, eighteen million
six hundred and eighteen thousand
bales of cotton, thirty-three million
rine hundred thousand boxes of or
anges, etc., and you have a alight
idea of what prosperity means.
And, unlike oil, these crops are not
exhausted, but go on forever, in
creasing. Land in France planted to
wheat for centuries produces more
bushels per acre now than it did 200
years ago. The pity is that when
farmers have big crops they get small
prices. Combination sales and voting
could help that, but farmers do not
yet know how.
Other good news for all Americans
is this: "The lake cities will be con
nected with the Mississippi and the
(julf and all ports of the world by
navigable waterways through legis
lation that should pass this winter.
And a canal from the lakes to the At
lantic also seems probable if an
agreement can be made with Canada
lor joint use of the St Lawrence."
The right plan would be an all
American waterway from the lakes
through New York State, and that
will come. But it would eost five or
six hundred millions more than the
low cost of the St. Lawrence canal,
which probably will come first.
Farmers are depely interested in
these canal projects, for which Secre
tary Hoover deserves greatest praise.
He is a worker. The canals will cut
an average of twelve cents from the
lreight on export wheat, and add
twelve1 cents to .the farmers' price.
Harnessing the Colorado River
.seems not far away, thanks to a num
ber of earnest men, including Senator
Hiram Johnson, Secretaries Work and
Hoover, and others. The remaining
difficulty seems to be arranging an
agreement between California and
Arizona. The dam would be in Ari
zona, a great part of the power and
irrigation would be used in Califor
nia. The prosperity of one State is
reflected in all States. California
cannot thrive without benefitting
Florida and Maine.
Arizona, the great State of copper,
cotton, citrus, climate and the Color
ado, will prove itself the State of
brotherly conciliation. The thing de
signed is to use the country's wealth,
water and power especially, and thus
build up the entire nation. Arizona
will not unwisely withhold from de
velopment and use that which, at the
moment, she herself cannot use.
This is written on the writer's
eleventh trip across the continent in
fourteen months. The oftenor you
cross, the more uniformity of life and
manners in America amazes you.
The young man in semi-balloon
trousers, left in New York, you find
again in Chicago, Kansas City, To
peka, Gallup, Albuquerque, Barstow
and tens of thousands of him in Los
Angeles.
Travel a short distance from the
shores of Brittany to the mountains
of Auvergne, in France, and you find
language and clothes changed com
pletely, also interests, habits and
manners.
Here, from Miami to Portland, we
all know the same baseball and foot
ball scores, see the same moving pic
tures, wear the same clothes, get
about the same wages.
