GARDEN HIXTS BROADCAST.
Listening in on telephone gossip
about seasonal garden topics is one
of the newly acquired priileges of
KOAC's radio audience each Thurs
day afternoon at 3:50 o'clock. At
least such is the effect when a talk
ative woman known to her friends
as "Mrs. Winter" picks up the re
ceiver and, while apparently chat
ting with one of her neighbors,
broadcasts to gardeners everywhere
a number of practical pointers on
such garden practices as have a
seasonal appeal. These garden tips
which "Mrs. Winter" obtains from
Andrew Laing, campus landscape
gardening foreman at Oregon State
college, are included in the home
garden programs which occupy the
half hour between 3:30 and 4 o'clock
each Thursday afternoon.

Several inches of snow fell in

MISSIOX UNION TO MEET.
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

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.
The winning of the "President's
Cup" for 1929 by The Lion's Lilac,
highest honor attainable by a Jer
sey breeder, to Oregon for the third
time since its institution in 19.il,
and to Independence for the second
time during the period. As a ben-
ior-3, Class AAA, she produced
926.55 pounds fat. She has broken
two world records, qualified for two
medals of merit and two silver med
als, all before reaching five years
of age.
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.

Accessories this year are as im
portant a part of the costume as
the dress itself.
Colors for spring are varied, none
outstanding. Black is supreme, us
ually leading the list in the -smart
woman's wardrobe. Dead white is
very good alone or combined with
black. Pastels are all good, with
rose leading. Greens are increasing,
in all shades, as are reds and blues,
Beiges, with rosy, rusty or yellow
tones, are smart
Gloves are much longer than for
merly and the classic slip-on is out
standing for all occasions. For eve
ning, 24 button length gloves may
be worn If one wishes.
Albert Williams is reported to be
confined to his home with a critical
