HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, JUNE 9, 1927. PAGE FIVE ipptuaiug Our old friend E. H. Turner of lone spent several hours in Heppner on Saturday. From conversation with him we are led to believe that the country north of lone wiil have per haps the largest yield of wheat this season in its history. Of course Mr. Turner did not fail to mention that one of several things might yet hap pen to shorten the prospective yield but we are hoping that none of these come along. lone stands a mighty good chance of being buried in wheat this season, and then the price is showing up well, too. We are sin cerely hoping that there will be no disappointing features enter in to mar the present bright outlook. Richard McElligott, retired farmer of the lone country, was a visitor in Heppner for a couple of days the first of the week. Mr. McElligott now makes his home in Portland, where most of our good people go after they have made a stake, but he makes fre quent visits to the old home county, and at the present time is rejoicing over the splendid crop outlook. He was one of the pioneer wheat raisers of the lower Gooseberry section, and well remembers many seasons when the crops were short and prices low. Mr. McElligott looks for good prices along with the heavy yield this sea sop. Mrs. Frank Turner, who so ably served as president of the Chautauqua association here this season, is en titled to the thanks of the community for her splendid work in putting the entertainment over successfully; at least this is the way we feel about it. Mrs. Turner, nevertheless, de sires not to take full credit, and wishes us to state that she is very thankful to all the guarantors, as well as to others who so kindly and gener ously assisted in every way, and she feels it was owing to this splendid cooperation that the work was so well done.
