PAGE EIGHT HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, NOV. 22, 1928. The Outgoing anJlncoming Presidents few weeks, the present level of prices is 5 to 8 cents below a year ago and there are some adverse fac tors to be considered. Receipts of eggs have been running ahead of last year they were about 16 per cent heavier in October; cold stor age holdnigs of case eggs on Novem ber 1 were 13 per cent larger; and the estimated consumption of eggs has been running materially behind. There is also an increase in cold storage poultry of practically all kinds, the total on November 1 be ing reported as 58.452.000 pounds as against 52,315.000 pounds last year at the same tmie. Of turkeys there was 4,803,000 pounds compared to 4,170.000 pounds a year earlier and five-year average of 3,734,000 pounds. Calvin Coolidge is to give up the reigns oi othce to Herbert Hoover, who it is believed will closely adhere to the policies formulated by his predecessor. Both men are more given to action than to words, and have marked business and executive ability. Calvin Coolidge has been nominated for man- offices, never suffering a defeat, but Herbert Hoover has not engaged in politics before. The many important offices he has heretofore held hav been appointive offices. HOBBIES AND HABITS OF HOOVER AND COOLIDGE BUT SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT Our next President, Herbert Hoo ver, has always been known as a man of action. He devotes about sixteen hours a day to work, and never seems to get tired of it One of his chief recreations is fishing, at which he is a great adept another amusement is watching sports events, at which he is always seen with a bag of peanuts in his hand. Peanuts seem to form one of the chief items of his diet- He is tre mendously fond of them. Efficiency is his byword in every department of life to save time, he orders his clothing In large quanti ties. He purchases as many as half a dozen suits at one time in order to avoid frequent trips to the store. Hoover is six feet tall, and very strong, but has a quiet reserve and is at times quite shy. Though he is very busy, he is one of the most ap proachable men in America. Calvin Coolidge, who is complet ing his term as President, is also an ardent fisherman an expert, in fact, whose exploits in this line have attracted much attention. He is an able marksman, too, having as tounded persons with his ability at shooting at clay pigeons and other targets. He is fond of wearing cow boy clothes and "ten gallon" hats on occasion. Coolidge believes in economy. In his private life as well as through out his administration, he counten ances no extravagance. When his term is up, he is returning to a small house where his rent is $32.50 per month. No success makes him depart frqm his simple tastes. ' Coolidge Is a splendid talker, but never speaks when there is nothing to be said. He is always sparing of words. He has at the same time a great sense of humor. One of the stories told of him is that a lady next to him at a dinner once turned toward him and said: "I bet someone that I could make you say three words," "You lose," answered the Presi dent solemnly. FIREMAN HURTS FOOT. Tait J. Garman, fireman on the local branch train, met with quite a serious accident Wednesday evening when doing some work on the en gine. He was preparing to take a collar off a shaft, when the gear slipped, catching his left foot be tween the gear and guard. The foot was smashed and cut on the right of the instep. He was brought to the office of Dr. McMurdo, who dressed his injuries, it requiring several stitches to close the wound in the foot No bones were broken. Born To Mr. and Mrs. L. H.

"Sometimes the shadows gather And the clouds are in the skies; Sometimes we can not see the sun shine For the tears that fill our, eyes, But always, in the darkness We are under God's great hand, And in His great garden We shall wake and understand. 'V , ELLA BENGE, RUBINA CORRIGALL, ETTA DEVIN, -i Committee. While on . the way into Heppner last evening, when some nine miles out on the highway, the lights of his car went out suddenly, and Geo. Fell landed in the ditch. After making an investigation and find ing that no damage had been done, and being unable to repair the lights, he decided to drive on into Heppner, which he did, but found it a slow process. FniluKu TREND Sharp reductions ta estimated pro duction of alfalfa and tweet clover Bodes is reported In the Weekly Market Review of the O. S. A. C. Extension Service. Turkey market ing; is becoming: active with prices variable. The demand for feeder cattle and lambs is not so keen In corn states as earlier this year. Corvallis, Oregon, November 19, 1928. Bread Grain. The world and domestic wheat markets were gener ally steady last week and soft red winter wheat advanced at St Louis. Sharp reductions were made in the official estimates of the Canadian crop and there is a large amount of low quality wheat because of frost damage. Reports from the south ern hemisphere were also less fa vorable for the wheat crop. Rye markets were firm. Feed Grain. All feed grains were steady to higher last week. Some reduction in the Canadian barley estimate and Improved demand from Europe strengthened that grain. New corn receipts were light Hay and Feed. The official esti mate of the hay crop remained un changed on November 1. Markets continue about steady with choice alfalfa tending to advance some what Feeds were about steady. Alfalfa meal is inclined to advance. Cottonseed cake and linseed meal were almost firm at the higher level of prices reached in recent weeks although the supply of cottonseed is somewhat larger than a year ago. Seeds. The alfalfa seed crop is reported 15 to 20 per cent smaller than was expected about September 25. Growers cut fewer acres than they originally intended and the yield was not as good as expected. The preliminary report Indicated only about 65 per cent as much al falfa seed as last year, therefore it seems certain that the alfalfa crop will be very small. The sweet clo ver seed crop has also turned out much poorer than expected. Dam age by frost and heavy rains has cut down the production of sweet clover seed 50 per cent compared to what was expected in September and the United States production of this seed may be only about one- third of the 127 crop. Sweet clover seed is moving rapidly irom grow ers' hands at advancing prices. Un certainty regarding the amount of foreign red clover seed which may be imported and low quotations on this seed from France were factors in causing dullness and some price decKne in terminal clover seed mar kets last week. On the whole, how ever, there is an unusual scarcity of good domestic grass and clover seed this yeas and farmers who must buy such seeds are being warned by the United States Department of Agri culture to look after their needs early. Dairy Products, Butter markets were firm to higher in the west but barely steady in the east last week. The situation reflects conditions for production. Storage stocks are low on the Coast and less than a year ago for the whol ecountry, but the tendency has been toward increas ing stocks in eastern states as com pared to last year's trend, with pro duction again running ahead of the same period in 1927. Cheese mar kets are steady to firm although there is evidence of increasing the large storage holdings whereas last year decreases were made at this time of year. Poultry and Eggs. Although the egg market situation seems to be a little firmer and prices may advance seasonally somewhat in the next Mr. and Mrs. Elza Vinson of Spray are visitors in Heppner today.
