It's not often that one can gather
cabbage from the garden all winter
without the sign of a leaf being
nipped, but Buch was the case at
his farm the winter just past, re
ports F. E. Mason who was in town
the end of the week from the lone
district. Not only were the cab
bages unhurt, but they continued
to grow to immense size and the
heads were firm and sweet, he said.
A goodly supply of carrots and tur
nips were dug throughout the win
ter also, as well as peppers which
had started to set on for the sec
ond time and would have come thru
In good shape but for one or two
frosty nights when he failed to pro
tect them.

get alfalfa seed as he contemplates
reseedlng a lot of his meadow land.
Because of a lack of snow ih the
mountains there will be a shortage
of irrigation water on the creek

good to the ranchers up and down
the creek.
Foster Collins who lives on Cam
as prairie south of Hardman was
transacting business in the city on
Monday. Mr. Collins fears for

winter has been Ideal, however, with
stock going through in good shape,
and signs of an abundance of deer.
He expected to start lambing about
April 5th.

rapid rate it is now, Leonard Carl

The Ideal Student Body
The ideal student body is one
which is entirely self-governing,
which has complete control of its
affairs. This is the goal for which
every student body should strive.
There are certain conditions, how
ever, which must be met before any
faculty could possibly give a stu
dent body control of itself. The two
most important conditions are: first
the student body as a whole must
show a definite Interest In its or
ganization; that is, it must realize
that there is more than the pleas
ures of student program and activ
ities to student body work; student
development must be realized as
the serious part. This includes sev
eral things: the election of the most
competent persons to office, for
bidding that friendship alone rule
the polls. Second, the students
must show that they are capable of
controlling themselves and their
individual members and that they
are experienced enough in such
matters so that the things they do
remain within reason.
Many students do not realize it,
but in most cases it is the faculty
which keeps the student body or
ganization going. They propose
the activities and thus keep things
running in some order. The reason
for this Is that students do not real
ize the seriousness of belonging to
and maintaining a student organi
zation. However, if a faculty saw
that a student body was capable of
meeting the two conditions already
stated they would probably be only
too glad to allow the students com
plete control because of the prac
tical experience In thinking and
self-control such a step would of
fer. Complete self-control is the goal
for which every student body or
ganization should strive; to reach
it, the Heppner high school student
body must first qualify itself by
meeting the prescribed conditions

AAA Wheat Plan Open
For Signers Till Apr. 15
Oregon wheat growers who have
not heretofore signed acreage re
duction contracts will have until
April 15 to join with the owners of
82 per cent of the state's wheat
acreage already in the nationwide
plan of controlled production on the
allotment basis with benefit pay
ments, according to word received
by the Oregon State College exten
sion service.
Because of this reopening of the
wheat program and the continuing
worn arising under the general
wheat plan, E. R. Jackman, exten
sion crops specialist, has been de
signated as head of the state col
lege group in charge of the educa
tional and organization features of
the wheat allotment plan.
though Jackman has not received
full reports from Washington as to
the details of this additional wheat
program, he has assembled consid
erable information which will serve
to help the remaining Oregon grow
ers to decide whether they want to
join the reduction plan.
New rulings permit any grower
who had applied for a contract be
fore January 1, but who for some
reason did not complete it, to go
ahead now and carry through the
contract and receive all payments
on the 1933 crop as well as those to
come.
Another concession made is to the
man who raised wheat only in 1932
of the base period and thus would
have been allowed to raise only a
third to a fifth of that acreage un
der the contract. The new plan is
to let such "one-year men" raise
that same acreage less the 15 per
cent reduction, though their allot
ments on which benefit payments
would be made will be figured the
same as previously, by taking the
54 per cent of the average produc
tion over the base period. They
would get all payments.
Others who made no application
at all may still join but will not beJ
eligible for the payment of 20 cents
per bushel already made, but they
will receive the remainder of the
1933 payments amounting to some
thing less than 8 cents a bushel, and
whatever payments are made on the
1934 and 1935 crops.
In all other respects the new sign
ers will be on the same footing as
those who joined at first, and will
not receive any advantages or dis
advantages through the delay.
If a new applicant has already
planted more than 85 per cent of
his acreage he will have to reduce
that figure, either through plowing
or disking the excess acreage or us
ing it for pasture or hay under the
same restrictions as present con
tract holders.
