The Union Missionary society has announced a meeting for Friday afternoon, March 7, at the Episco pal church. Pendleton, Ore., Feb. 25. Com plete information on the program of the National Wool Marketing corporation, sponsored by the Fed eral Farm board to give wool pro ducers greater control in the mar keting of their commodity, which they have sought for the last quar ter of a century, has been received in the offices of the Oregon Wool Growers association, announces Walter A. Holt, secretary. The Ore gon association now has available data on the new wool plan, copies of the marketing agreements, and such other materials as growers who are studying the Federal Farm board program for wool may desire. In the national wool selling plan, Oregon is in District 1. Other states in this district include Wash ington, Idaho, California and Nev ada. This area, which produced a total of 67,984,000 pounds of wool in 1929, will have four directors, the Relatives at Heppner report that same number it now has on the Martin Reid is somewhat improved temporary directorate of the cor- following an operation which he un- poration.

As a unit in the national program Mr. Ward anticipates the Farm Pointers Birds are often a big factor in controlling many common Insect pests, and wise farmers protect them. Disturbances of bees during the winter may excite them and cause rise in the temperature within the hive, resulting in premature brood rearing, which Is highly un desirable, says the Oregon Experi ment station. The entrance of the hive may be kept open by dragging the dead bees out with a short wire.

Before expending any time or en ergy in putting the raspberry patch into shape, it is wise to be sure that the canes are free from insects and diseases, a fact which can be deter mined only by careful examination, says the Oregon Experiment station. If they are seriously infested, tne best thing to do is to plow up the planting and replace it with new stock, or do a minimum amount of work on the old patch for the season. COOPERATION NEEDED. Reasoning from a recent talk by ex-Governor McKelvle of Nebraska, now a member of the Federal Farm board, on the necessity for coopera tion among farmers. The Dalles Optimist says: "The time has arriv ed when agriculture must recognize the hugeness of the part It plays and how vitally it affects all other industry of the nation. The agri cultural industry is basic, but it must not lie still and unprogressive. Those who administer it, from the owner of the smallest farm on up to those who have been selected to represent it in the circles where the profoundest though of those who have the best interests of the entire nation at heart will be ex pended, must realize the need for evolution and the ultimate benefits to be derived." J. II. CAMPBELL DEAD. Joseph H. Campbell, 73, died Mon day at the Odd Fellows home in Portland. He had been a resident of Heppner for many years before going to the home in Portland. Mr. Campbell was a member of Willow lodge No. 66 of this city. Funeral services will be cnoducted in Port land Friday. MISSION GROUP TO MEET.
