PAGE SIX HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, NOV. 1, 1928. 600 AT LEXINGTON HONOR PIONEERS (ConHnqrd from Will P he did not consider himselw a pion eer of this particular part of the state, he had lived In Oregon when a much younger man than he is now, and got part of his education and preparation for teaching in the Oregon schools. He could tell of conditions, however, that bordered on those of the pioneer, as his work as former superintendent of schools of this county was done under cir cumstances more of a pioneer na ture than exist at the present time. A special program of music, reci tations, pantomime, etc., had been prepared under the direction of Mrs Karl Miller, and special worn had been done in preparing a min strel stunt that was delivered in good shape for the evening's enter tainment The auditorium of the high school building was filled to overflowing for the two hours of splendid entertainment, and then following this was the old-time dance at Leach hall, participated in by all that felt the urge to trip the light fantastic toe. It is remarked that some of the old timers showed that they had not forgotten what they had learned In younger days, and were able to perform the qua drilles and other dances of the early days In a manner quite satisfactory to themselves. Much fun was creat ed at this old-time party and all thoroughly enjoyed themselves. We are sure that no one fortun ate enough to be present at Lexing ton Friday regretted the time spent Everyone expressed keen apprecia tion of their splendid entertainment and it was a day always to be re membered.

Joseph N. Scott of Pendleton, who was elected to this position two years ago, is a candidate for reelec tion. Joe Scott is well known in the district as a native of Umatilla county, an extensive farmer and heavy taxpayer on wheat lands lo cated !n both Umatilla and Morrow counties, also owning residence property in Pendleton. During the 1927 session Mr. Scott introduced but two bills, both by request One of these passed both houses unan lmously and was signed by the gov ernor. This law provides that in counties where there are no local road districts, signatures to peti tions and remonstrances for road improvements shall be restricted to freeholders residing in the local road districts as they last existed Mr. Scott says: "There were over one thousand separate bills and res olutions Introduced and disposed of In the 1927 session of the Oregon legislature, the record of which fills several good-sized books and is a matter of public record. A com plete and detailed review of the same is Impossible in the limits of a newspaper article. I will say in a. general way that I took my office seriously and devoted the time dur ing the forty-seven days of the ses sion to hard and serious study of the mass of legislation offe.-ed and especially the matters referred to the committees of which I was a member. I was a member of four committees as follows: Agriculture, Assessment and Taxation, Health and Public Morals, and Mining. "I worked among my fellow mem bers with the best of feeling prevail ing at all times nad was treated by both the speaker of the house and the governor with every courtesy and consideration. If the voters of Umatilla and Morrow counties elect me as their representative again I shall con sider it a great honor and I will be glad to serve the district to the best of my ability and for the pay speci fied by the constitution and limited to $3.00 per day or not to exceed $120 for any one session with mile age in addition. I served for this compensation in the 1927 session al though the legislature appropriated to its members $5 per day addition al for the entire forty-seven days It was in session. Four members did not accept the extra amount" ALPINE. Dan Lindsey and son Elec motor ed to Pendleton on Saturday. It was a trip of pleasure and business combined.

Now is Time to Clean Your Field of Gophers In the furtherance of the county agent's extension program In Mor row county, Rooy Fugate, junior biologist of the biological survey, spent two days in the county in company with Charles W. Smith, demonstrating methods of poison ing gophers. The months of Octo ber and November are by far the most favorable months for poison ing pocket gophers as they are lead ing a solitary life at this time of year and one bait placed in a run way will usually be enough to do the work, says Mr. Smith. Each year in Morrow county the stand of alfalfa in many of the fields is cut down by gophers, a large amount of time is lost in stopping up the holes along the irrigation ditches in the spring, and a large amount of the limited supply of water available is lost The poisoning of gophers is a very simple matter and takes only a short time to cover several acres of ground. The most effective me thod is to dust strychnine sulphate which can be secured at the county agent's office without cost, on some cubes of freshly cut carrots and place in the run way. The run way is found with a probe and the bait dropped in, the hole is then cover ed with a clod or grass and enough dirt placed on the top to shut out light If this was not done the gopher will plug the hole and the bait will not be found. If you have gophers and never had a demonstration on your farm, you may get one at any time after November 15 by making inquiry to Mr. Smith. Gophers can be poisoned In the spring but at that time there are usually two or more gophers oc cupying one run way and one may eat all the bait as it acts very slow ly, and at that time also, one will have to kill the Increase. Then, too, the gophers will destroy many al falfa plants during the winter by cutting them off a few inches be low the ground.

Paid Adv. A GREAT TRIBUTE. If you are ever so fortunate as to visit out National Capitol at Wash ington, you will find many things there to thrill you. But none, perhaps, as stirring as one picture that hangs as a per manent gift to the American people and a fitting tribute to one of the most glorious deeds in all our na tion's proud history. This wonderful picture bears the simple title "WE," and as its name suggests, depicts the gallant flight of Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh from New York to Paris the flight that thrilled the world, and gave it probably its most loved hero of all time. And the' best part of all this is, you can have a handsome copy of "WE," printed in twelve colors and measuring eighteen by twenty-four inches, to hang in your own home. You cannot buy the picture at any price. It may be had only through The Youth's Companion as its free gift to you with a year's subscrip tion to the magazine. In its new form as a monthly mag azine, The Companion itself has more to offer than ever before a full book-length novel complete in each issue; serials and short stor ies; feature articles, editorials, con tests, puzzles, poems, recommenda tions of books and motion pictues, and special departments for both boys and girls covering their own favorite activities.
