Garnet Barratt, Ray Ferguson
and Jap (jrawford arrived home on
Tuesday evening from Browning,
Montana, where they went the past
week with a shipment of the Bar
ratt sheep. Some pretty warm
weather was experienced on the
journey but the sheep arrived at
their destination In good shape.
Crawford had a little real exper
ience In getting a tap on the head
by a sand spout chain suspended
over the tracks while viewing the
scenery from the top of a car. For
tunately he was not entirely knock
ed out and saved himself from go
ing over the edge of the car. A
few miles farther on he was met by
a physician and a few stitches tak
en in the cut on his forehead. The
boys report an enjoyable trip and
left the sheep on abundant pastur
age. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Miller and
Mrs. Miller's mother, Mrs. M. C.
Fredrickson, all of Portland, were
visitors in this city over the week
end, being guests at the home of
Mrs. J. B. Natter. Mrs. Miller will
be remembered as Miss Mary Beh
rens, and with her mother and fam
ily left Heppner 28 years ago. This

two years or so, living about ten
miles out from Santa 'Rosa.
Ralph Harris of Park hotel, lone,
was looking after some business
matters here on Tuesday. While
it showered heavily in the south and
east portions of the county Monday
afternoon, Mr. Harris stated that
the rain was very light over the
lone section. It is his opinion that
much good would yet result to crops
if visited by some abundant show
ers of rain right soon; crops over
much of that area, however, are too
far advanced for rains to be of any
benefit.

her cousin, Jesse Stout of Mt Shas

ed here and visited here at Rodeo

of Tuesday evening did not strike
at their place on upper Hinton
creek, but they were treated to a
fine rain. At the ranch of Mrs.
Uzz French below the forks of the
creek, however, the downpour was
very heavy and a lot of damage
was done to fences, besides a lot
of rock was washed in on the prem
ises. The water almost reached the
house and some damage is reported
to outbuildings.

New Industrial Engineer
Appointed by P. P. & L.
To aid in the industrial develop
ment of the communities served by
Pacific Power & Light company, B.
P. Bally has been promoted to the
position of industrial engineer for
the utility, it is announced by Lewis
A. McArthur, vice-president and
general manager. Baily will carry
forward the business development
activities formerly handled by Geo.
H, Wisting, whose entire time is to
be devoted to the sales problems of
Northwestern Electric company.
"It la believed that one of the re
sults of the present economic situa
tion will be the decentralization of
industries, and it is possible that
many manufacturing units will be
looking for new locations in smaller
communities close to the field of
consumption," said McArthur in
commenting on the change. "It will
be part of our program to see that
the communities we serve get their
share of the results that follow such
changes, it being understood, of
course, that the Pacific company
expects to benefit through the se
curing of increased load."
One of the activities contemplat
ed by Bally is a survey of the indus
trial possibilities of each district
served bv the company. Purpose of
the survey will be to make available
as complete information as can De
obtained regarding the natural re
sources, existing industries and de
velopment possibilities of each com
munity. Baily is thoroughly familiar with
the territory served by Pacific Pow
er & Light company. He has been
with the company since 1910, start
ing as manager of the Pasco dis
trict. From 1911 to 1918 he was
manager of The Dalles district,
from 1918 to 1925 he was manager
of the Astoria district, and from
1925 to 1929 he had charge of the
Yakima district. Since 1929 he has
been in the operating department
of the company, with headquarters
at Portland.
