And that history will be outlined at the morning service at the Church of Christ. Do the thou sands of unimmersed know by whose authority they were sprink led? There seems grave reason for doubt. The evening service will adjourn to lone. All who possibly can are urged to drive there for the service which begins at 7:30. Our Bible school meets at 9:45. Christian Endeavor will meet at 5 30 for a social time and business meeting before the regular meeting. MILTON V. BOWER, Minister. ESTRAYED.

LEXINGTON SCENE OF GROWERS' MEET (Continued from Page One) The estimated price there at the present time Is $1.12. Under this plan the farmer would receive ap proximately 90 cents per bushel on wheat in Heppner at the present time. Mr. Shumway declared that returns should be received as quick ly as is the case at present, though in this district, checks will proba bly be mailed from Spokane, as it is impracticable for the association to carry the necessary funds to handle all local needs in local banks. Regional Approval Needed. Before a local association can be established its by-laws, board of directors and all must be approved by the regional association. In the same way all business of the re gional is supervised by the Farmers National Grain corporation, which is responsible in turn to the Federal Farm board. The Federal Farm board is responsible to the presi dent and congress, so the associa tion is really a part of the federal government, and should be just as solid. Mr. Shumway, on being asked how soon a local could be in posi tion to transact business, said that not more than 10 days should be required from the time of the or ganization meeting. If a local is to be organized in Morrow county, it was emphasized that it should be done within the next two weeks, in order that the local association might be represented at a meeting of the North Pacific Grain growers in Spokane, Wash., during the first week in April. It is declared imper ative that all interested growers sign the grower's contract immedi ately, and that the signers elect a temporary board of directors for the local association, and complete local association plans. With 250, 000 bushels signed up this local is entitled to one representative at the Spokane meeting, and if any more at all is signed up, it will be entitled to two, as representation is based on one representative for each 250, 000 bushels or fraction thereof. Di rectors of the regional association will be elected at the Spokane meet ing. Those who have served in this capacity so far were appointed to act temporarily. A local organization must be formed around a banking and trade enter. It has a board of directors, a manager and bookkeeper. Books of each local are audited at inter vals, probably once a month, by the regional association. jiHMitiiiitiMiiMiitiimiiiiMiiiiiiiiitHHmiiiiiimiiiiiiiiii; Will Rogers! SAYS imiMiiimiiiiitmiiiHiiil ItllllllHIIIIMIUMIIIMMMir iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii vest, Mr. Shumway said no provi sion for this had yet been made, but he expected this would be added as a fourth option. It may seem strange, he declared, but the nation al association did not know of this method of marketing wheat until they started investigations in the northwest. In order to give the as sociation free rein in selling the wheat, and to leave no strings be tween the farmer and the associa tion after the grain is delivered, a clause is provided in the agreement whereby the farmer gives full and complete title to the association as soon as the grain is delivered. This clause is also necessary that the association be enabled to borrow money on grain in its hands. When a grower sells his grain he is paid in full by the association. However, if he does not elect to sen at time of delivery he may obtain a loan of 90 per cent of the estim ated value of the grain at terminal points at that time. For this sec tion Portland Is the terminal point. Douglas Fir Passes Rigid Test at U. of O. SEE US FIRST!

Douglas fir timbers, after 53 years of service, were found not only (o equal new timbers in strength, but were actually stronger, It is stated by E. H. McAllister, professor of mechanics at the University ot Oregon, who has completed a research Investigation on material taken from Hayden Bridge, a structure erect ed near Eugene in 1874. The timbers In the bridge were found to be in an excellent etate of preservation, and Professor McAllisters' conclusion Is that Douglas fir can be preserved in sound structural condition for at least half a cen tury by the simple expedient of covering from weather and providing for a free circulation of air. More than 200 ttn, on machines which exert from 30,000 to 200,- 000 pounds pressure, were made on the old timbers, while for basis of comparison similar tests were made on both green and seasoned pieces of the same size. Although some of the timbers that went Into con struction of the bridge would not be acceptable as bridge material under modern grading rules, the average strength was found to be in excess of the average strength of new timber in green condition, while in most cases it was well above the average for unused timber that had been Kir dried for two or throe yeans.
