C. G. Blayden, precinct commit
teeman for the Democratic party,
made a trip to Heppner Saturday
to attend a meeting to nominate a
candidate to succeed the late Mr,
Davidson as county commissioner.
Mr. Blayden was nominated for this
place and he will run at the Novem
ber election. We feel that this part
of the county is entitled to repre
sentation. Mr. Blayden is one of
the pioneers of Boardman, being
the first mayor of the town. He
has held the position of U. S. Land
commissioner for years as well as
that of notary public and has al
ways taken an interest in commun
ity and county affairs. He will no
doubt have the support of the voters
in this end of the county, but wheth
er they will be outnumbered by the
south end or not is a question.

water, electric lights and electric la
bor saving appliances as a big con
venience to the farm woman. In
speaking of production problems he
declared that no type or make or
implement has been found better
suited than any other for all condi
tions. He said that early plowing
and enough cultivation to make a
fairly firm seed bed, and control of
weeds was giving returns In higher
yields. He urged that farmers give
their support to" the federal farm
marketing program by joining local
cooperatives. It is only by undiv
ided support that the success or
failure of the plan can be deter
mined. Weed Control Shown.
At the Clyde Wright ranch the
effect of treating wild morning glor
ies with , calcium chlorate was
shown. The fire hazard of sodium
chlorate was also demonstrated.
Last year three persons 'lost their
lives in Idaho from fires started by
sodium chlorate.
The caravan Journeyed to the
Eight Mile grain nursery, where Mr,
Stephens explained the wheat var
ieties being grown. Some of the
hybrids appear to be doing extreme
ly well. Field plots of some of the
most promising ones will be estab
lished this year.
The party went to the Lawrence
Redding farm to see furrow-seeded
Federation wheat. The grain looks
fine, and is giving a substantial In
crease in yield over the standard
seeding method. Mr. Stephens said
that at the experiment station, beU
ter yields were obtained with Fed
eration when planted by the furrow
method, but that that was not the
case with other varieties.
Because of a lack of time, It was
found that the Carl Peterson farm,
where crested whoat grass and Aus
tralian winter peas are being grown,
could not be visited. It is planned
to visit the farm ut some time In
the future.
The committee In charge of the
event wishes to thank Mr. and Mrs.
Ed Rugg for their hospitality and
the Heppner Lions club and the
Rhea Creek grange for their part
In making the day a success.

NATURAL FLAVORS
In the summer it is at least amus
ing and it may be also highly de
lightfulto discard the more artifi
cial flavors and depend on the more
natural food flavors.
At this time' of year the thoughts
turn first to berries as a source of
delicious flavor. Strawberry juice
may be used, with or without the
crushed fruit, for Ice cream and
pudding sauces. Red raspberries,
raw or cooked, are almost as good
as strawberry for giving us delicious
flavor for desserts. Red raspberries
make delicious ice. But many per
sons fail to know their possibilities
In ice cream. And one of the best
homemade Ice creams I ever ate
was made from crushed black-caps
or black raspberries and cream
and sugar. It was a lovely lavender
color and had a delicacy of taste
quite Incomparable. The black rasp
berries were mashed with sugar,
and heated just enough to make it
easy to rub them through a sieve to
remove the seeds. Then, when the
Juice was cool It was added to the
cream and frozen.
