Offlolal Paper for Marrow County
THE BANK OPENING.
INDICATIVE of the return of bet-
- ter time3 for Morrow county was
the opening Monday of the Heppner
branch of the First National Bank
of Portland. This thought was pre
dominant in the minds of folks
from over the county who joined
with the people of Heppner in eel
ebrating the event And the first
day s business of the bank is sub
stantiating evidence that the faith
is not unfounded.
The opening was marked with
flowers, real and figurative, express-
ing good will toward the bank.
Bank officials showed appreciation
and pronounced their faith in the
future of this territory, which was
more profoundly expressed in the
establishment of the bank itself.
In reality the establishment of
the branch office here is no mere
display of neighboriiness or un
wonted affection for a particular
group of people. It is the result of
thorough investigation of the bus
iness possibilities of the trade terri
tory by hard-headed business men
experienced in the banking busi
ness. That such an investigation
by such men has resulted in open
ing of the branch office here speaks
more eloquently of the economic
stability of the section than any
words of a Webster might convey,
But while the bank comes as a
purely business venture, its being
so touches the human side of life
in Morrow county that the celebra-
tion was not unwonted and the
bank's value in the future should
not be measured alone in cold dol
lars and cents.
A system of banking is essential
to a well rounded economic struc
ture for any region. Through the
recent times of depression our peo
ple, as well as people throughout
the nation, have learned just how
vitally necessary banking facilities
are to the free flow of trade, and in
turn to providing the very susten
ance of life to the mass of the
people.
Because of the vital part played
by banks in the economic structure
of the country, the national govern
ment has taken extreme measures
to put them on a solid, substantial
footing as President Roosevelt has
put it, the government has gone
into partnership with the banks.
This security, added to that reflect
ed by the enviable record of the
strong Portland institution, brings
to the Morrow county branch a
solidarity that brooks naught but
confidence from the people.
It is the expressed policy of the
new bank to be a part of the com
munity and to aid in its progress
in every way consistent with good
banking practice. That is as it
should be, and is all that the com
munity should expect No business
should be expected to do more; all
businesses should do as much.
The bank's opening has marked
the beginning of a new era in Mor
row county, an era the construct
iveness, and length of constructive
ness of which, will yet depend large
ly on the Initiative and constructive
effort of the individual.
PATERNALISM?
PROBABLY at no time in history
has any people been made more
aware of attempts of its governing
head to benefit the masses than has
the people of the United States since
inauguration of the present admin
istration. Nearly all the letters of
the alphabet have been employed to
designate the various government
agencies that have been established
to bring succor to the various class
es. It is proposed to increase the
public debt to the largest point in
history, avowedly as an investment
to enlarge the activities of the peo-

pie generally so that all may have
constructive employment and enjoy I
the privileges of life that are right
fully theirs. j
In adoption of the tremendously
large, ideally democratic, program
party lines have been wiped out
and President Roosevelt stands
without a peer since Washington in
the unanimity of support given his
leadership by the people of the na
tion. In spite of maladjustments in
places, the program by and large is
working, and most indications point
to successful accomplishment
The sentiment of the people of
Morrow county generally appears
to be wholly sympathetic and ap
proving of the administration pro
gram, but there are those who mis
interpret its intentions. Some peo
ple are impatient because recovery
comes slowly, and feel that they
have not been given just consider
ation. There are those who feel
that one's neighbor has been treat
ed better than oneself, and that
because the government has given
work to one it should give work to
all who are similarly situated.
On the other hand there are those
who question that the government
has not gone too far in providing
as much work as it has because of
the danger of breaking down indi
vidual self reliance.
It is the announced intention of
the goverment program to provide
sufficient government employment
for enough of the unemployed of
the nation that the additional buy
ing poyer thereby created will stim
ulate the ordinary lines of indus
try so that they in turn will absorb
the remaining unemployed as well
as put those temporarily employed
by the government back to their
accustomed jobs, and thus through
reconstruction of the economic
structure of the country increase
the output of the people generally
in an amount sufficient to pay off
the public debt and at the same time
provide more enjoyable living con
ditions for everyone.
The theory is not one of paternal
ism. And no one should expect
paternalism as a result. Paternal
ism destroys the initiative of the
individual on which the success of
democratic government relies.
U. 0. Scientists Perfect
New Tests for Marksmen
Eugene. Expert riflemen of the
University of Oregon R. r T n
unit greatly excelled all other stu-
aents in a series ot muscular coor
dination tests given here recently,
and so positive were the results that
universitv Dsvcholne'ists iu in tho
experiment a new and efficient
method of selecting men for expert
marksmen, it was announced by
Dr. Robert H. Seashore, associate
professor of psychology, and Ray
mond D. Adams, his assistant.
The results showed that but one
person out of 60 examined pnnallsri
the record made by members of the
rifle team in a series of Ave tests.
Musicians, draftsmen and athletes,
as well as a number of men select
ed at random, made up the group.
Additional experiments carried
out with the riflemen indicate that
the actual training in rifle shooting
itself was not the major factor in
accounting for the superiority
shown by team members. Inten
sive practice in the tests themselves
carried on over a period 10 times
as long as the standard time pro
duced an amount of improvement
which would account for only one
fifth of the total range of individual
difference.
The university scientists now
plan, as a crucial test, to select from
men wholly untrained in rifle shoot
ing one group showing superiority
in these tests and another showina-
average ability. Both groups will
men De given the same training
in markmanshiD. If thi spWtBri
group shows a marked snnerinrirv
in actual rifle fire, it is believed that
a standard test can be devised that
will eliminate the costly practice
methods now used to selert men fur
training. Savings in ammunition
Dy armies, military schools and oth
er organizations would be tremen
dous, it was pointed out
Dr. Seashore is well known In
psychological research fields for his
previous work. Motor coordination
testing apparatus he has devised is
now used in psychological labora
tories ail over the United States.

Emergency Dairy Feeds
Discussed by 0. S. C. Men
Considerable interest has been
shown among dairymen in main
tenance rations for dairy cattle, say
dairy staff men at Oregon State
college. With the low price of but-
terfat, many dairymen are finding
it difficult to buy feedstuffs which
are maintaining a fairly high price
level. Also,, there is a slow de
mand for milk cows, and beef prices
are very low. The situation is more
difficult in the Willamette valley
where practically all of last year'!
oats and vetch hay crop was des
troyed by winter freezing.
It is certainly logical for every
dairyman to cull his herd closely
at the present time rather than pur
chase feeds for them. Old cows,
poor producers and unhealthy ani
mals such as abortion reactors, dif
flcult breeders, and animals with
udder disorders may well be dis
posed of. Similarly, young heifers
may be culled and only the choicest
ones retained. It would be much
more desirable to cull out one-
fourth or even one-half of the herd
and to feed those remaining some
what better, than to attempt to
maintain all the herd if the feed
supply is limited.
The most economical ration to
feed depends directly on the feed
stuffs available on the particular
farm, say the dairy specialists. A
good quality of legume hay meets
the requirement of growing heifers
fairly well. If only grass or a cer
eal hay, such as oat hay, is avail
able, then it would be economical to
supplement the ration of a grow
ing yearling heifer with three quar
ters to one pound daily of a high
protein concentrate such as peanut
meal. It would cost about $2 to
feed a protein supplement to a
growing heifer until pastures should
be available. The expenditure is
justified if the animal is to be re
tained as a future dairy herd re
placement. .
The question has been frequently
asked recently whether dairy cat
tle can be maintained on straw. A
good quality of straw will supply
much of the energy requirements of
cattle if they "can be induced to
consume enough of it, but it is so
low in protein that a 600 pound heif
er would have to consume approxi
mately 100 pounds of straw daily
to meet her protein requirements.
The problem of straw feeding re
solves itself, then, into the two con
siderations of getting cattle to con
sume it and supplying additional
protein.
Molasses has long been used as
an appetizer by diluting with water
and pouring over unpalatable
roughage to induce cattle to eat it.
By pouring two to three pounds per
animal daily of diluted molasses
over straw, corn stover or a poor
quality of hay, cattle may be In
duced to eat a sufficient amount to
meet most of their nutritive require
ments, except for digestible protein
and minerals.
A more complete consideration of
this subject is given in a new mim
eograph circular prepared at the
college dealing with emergency
dairy rations.

Farm Debt Committees
Appointed by Governor
To assist worthy farmers and
their creditors to work out volun
tary agreements, state and county
committees are being set up thruout
the country. Governor Meier has
appointed a farm-debt adjustment
committee in every county in Ore
gon. The county committees will serve
under the general direction of the
Oregon Agricultural Advisory coun
cil, in cooperation with the Oregon
State College Extension service.
The Morrow county committee
consists of Bert Johnson, lone; S.
J. Devine, Geo. N. Peck, Lexington;
H. V. Smouse, lone, and J. J. Wight
man, Heppner, who were nominat
ed for appointment by the executive
committee of the Agricultural coun
cil. The job of first importance which
confronts this committee is to help
work out debt-adjustment agree
ments in cases where applications
for Federal Land Bank loans have
not been closed owing to an excess
of old debts over the amount of new
capital which can be borrowed. The
number of such cases varies, rang
ing trom a few up to 200 or more
per county.
Any farmer who needs informa
tion on the procedure to be followed
by the committee, or on types of
rarm-debt adjustment agreements,
should get in touch with the coun
ty agricultural agent, Chas. W,
Smith, who has a supply of appli
cation blanks upon which to reg
ister cases for consideration by the
committee.
The work of the committee is not
limited to Federal Lank Bank cases
but will include adjustments be
tween farmer borrowers and other
mortgage creditors. The commit
tees are without legal status, al
though having official recognition.
Their whole function is to serve as
effectively as possible on a volun
tary basis, depending upon fairness
tor results.
