Mrs. E. S. Duran has a very fine
garden at the farm home In Black
horse. We know this Is true, for
she left with us a sample of the
very excellent turnips, all grown on
dry land, that she has raised this
season. We can well remember the
very One vegetables raised on this
place "nigh on to forty year" ago,
when Mr. Sweetser, father of Mrs.
Duran, furnished the Heppner mar
ket with a great portion of its "gar
den truck" delivered to the resi
dents early every morning. The
fram evidently produces just as well
these later days.
R. E. Driskell of Eight Mile was
looking after business here on Mon
day. Harvest will be coming on out
his way in about two weeks, the
grain turning rapidly with the
warm weather. Had it not been
for frost getting some of his wheat
just as it was beginning to head
out, he feels that he would have
had better than a 40-bushel yield.
This figure will be reduced some
on account of the whitecaps, but an
abundant yield is looked for by Mr.
Driskell, and a number of his neigh-
bors will likewise make a fine show
ing this season.
Harry French reports that there
is considerable activity in timber
out his way, and that a number of
parties have been cruising over the
pine belt adjacent to his holdings.
This is what he Btated to the editor
while in town for a short time on
Monday. Whether or not there will
be any trades made, he was not
able to say, but representatives of
several large mills were looking
over the timber belt In the south
part of the county, and rumors are
heard to the effect that much prop
erty will likely change hands out
that way.
W. T. Gerard who farms quite
extensively some six miles north of
Lexington, was a visitor here on
Friday. He reports that it rained
half an Inch at his place the pre
vious Saturday, while at the Earl
Simonton place water ran all the
way acroaa the summerfallow field
and the cistern was filled with wa
ter as well. Mr. Gerard reports
crops looking well in his locality
and they have been developing faat
with the warmer weather of the
past week.
Walter Bowling and family of
Welser, Idaho, passed through
Heppner Friday on their way home
from Portland, where Mr. Bowling
attended a meeting of the North
west Bakers' association. Mr. Bowl
ing at one time ra na bakery shop
In this city, leaving here in 1918.
Mrs. Bowling will be remembered
as Miss Edith Thorley, formerly of
this city. The Bowlings have two
children, and while here enjoyed
visiting many friends.
Mr. and Mrs. O. T. Ferguson de
parted for Crescent City, Cal., on
Monday morning, expecting to
spend the summer there. They de
sire to make it known to their many
llonnnpr freinds that thev will con
sider it an insult If any pass
through Crescent City and do not
call. They have a cabin available
tn thnnB who mav desire to stop.
and invite their friends to come and
stay as long as they like.
Mr. and Mrs. Frank S. Parker and
daughter Katherlne, and Mrs. Helen
D. Bloom, a guest at the Parker
home, motored over to Joseph In
the Bloom car for the week end, vis
iting at the home of Mr. and Mrs.

Cove, returning home late Sunday
evening. Katherlne remained at Jo
seph with her sister, Mrs. Mitchell.

Roy Scott and family were In the

at Top, Oregon. Mr. Scott states
that the road over the mountain

miles is made in good time. After

JUNE LEADS DEVELOPMENT.
With investments of $318,500
made by new families who arrived
in Oregon to make this state their
home, June led all previous months
of the present year, according to
the monthly report of the state
chamber of commerce. These new
families numbered 75 and they pur
chased 5359 acres of land. The at
tractiveness of Oregon as a home
state is shown by the heavy influx
of new people during the past six
months of this year. During this
period the state chamber figures
show the number of families In
creased from 181 during 1928 to 307
in 1929; investments by new fam
ilies have risen from $633,760 during
1928 to $1,122,725 in 1929; and acres
of land purchased have increased
from 11,404 in 1928 to 17,903 in 1929.
