E MONEY?
If you do, you will either have to increase pro
duction or lower the costs. It is possible to do
both with JOHN DEERE FARM EQUIP-
MENT. With the increased costs of feeding
stock and the lowered cost of mechanical fuel,
you should be alive to the vast saving between
the old style of farming and the new. At the
present fuel prices you can plow your land, har
row it twice, weed it three times and seed it for
a fuel consumption (distillate, oils, greases) at
not over 60 cents per acre, with a
John Deere Tractor
It Has Proved Its
Merits
This powerful tractor will do your work at a low
cost, in a shorter time and will continue to do so,
season after season. It is designed and built by
a company with over eighty years of experience
constructing farm equipment. Economy and
durability are the two principles that the John
Deere Plow Company have ever kept in mind in
the construction of this tractor.
Ten of these tractors were sold in this vicinity dur
ing the past year and every one made a satisfied
customer.
The amount invested in this tractor is no more
than a twelve-horse plow outfit, yet will do dou
ble the work for less money.
Convenient two-year terms to responsible farm
ers. We will be pleased to arrange a demonstra
tion with you.
Last, but not least, be sure to inspect the new
John Deere Gang and
Tractor Plows

LOCAL KWS ITEMS
From the Underwriter's Report,
insurance publication, we have the
following concerning a former
Heppner boy, a son of Mrs. G. C.
Aiken of this city: "Jared (Jerry)
Aiken, who has been special agent
at Portland for the Hartford Acci
dent and Indemnity since last Ap
ril, has been transferred by the
company to a similar position at
Salt Lake City. With the transfer,
Aiken will inaugurate a special
agency service for the company in
Utah and Southern Idaho, and will
make his quarters at the Hart
ford's service office in the Walker
Bank building. Salt Lake City. He
left for the Utah metropolis Satur
day after spending two weeks at
the Pacific department in San Fran
cisco. Aiken has been with the
Hartford Accident and Indemnity
for about three years, starting in
the Pacific Northwest in the pay
roll auditing department. Accord
ing to Resident Secretary Robert H.
Butler at the Pacific department,
Aiken's transfer to the Utah field
is in the nature of a promotion in
recognition of his past good rec
ord." J. D. French visited Heppner on
Wednesday from his farm home in
the Curdane section. It had been
many weeks since he was able to
get to town, owing to the big storm.
Feeding of stock has been his con
stant care during this time, and the
end is not yet, with feed getting
lower all the while. Dillard does
not look for a break soon up his
way and expects several weeks of
feeding yet. While here, Mr. French
talked with Long Creek, and report
ed to this paper that the word re
ceived is to the effect that stock
men in that part of northern Grant
will pull through all right, having
plenty of feed. It was Impossible
for Mr. French to get out from his
place by car, and it wijl likely be
weeks before the roads are in such
shape that people up his way will
be able to use their machines.
The continuous cold spell of 45
days at Spokane, during much of
which time the thermometer was
sub zero, has at last broken, writes
John Campbell of that city to his
brother, W. T. Campbell of Hepp
' ner. The city suffered more from
frozen water pipes than ever before,
thinks Mr. Campbell, and it is esti
mated that it has cost the residents
there at least $25,000 to operate the
electrical thawing apparatus, and
In the meantime fuel dealers have
had a rushing trade. The storm
has been one of the worst in the
city's experience.
David Hynd of Sand Hollow
thinks that Hynd Brothers will
have enough feed on Rose Lawn
ranch to pull them through. Lamb
ing will be on there right away, but
It may be weeks before the range is
free of the snow. Mr. Hynd was
looking after business affairs In the
city on Wednesday.
Dr. Fred E. Farrior and family
will leave Heppner for Portland on
Sunday, where they expect to be
located ior some time, as jjr. Far
rior has not yet made arrangements
for a permanent location. He just
recently disposed of his dental prac
tice in this city to Dr. J. H. Mc
Crady. Chas. Allinger of lone has been
suffering much of late with a car
buncle on his neck. He was in
town on Wednesday having the
trouble looked after.

Best Time for Putting
Out Squirrel Poison
The extent to which squirrels can
be poisoned successfully, according
to C. W. Smith, county agent, de
pends upon the kind of poison used
and the time of year it is put out
When squirrels first come from
their winter homes they are weak
and hungry and ready to consume
the first food they can locate. With
this in mind, the best time to poi
