HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, JULY 19, 1934. PAGE THREE Glenn Burroughs, who with his Mr. and Mrs. Ed Hackett visited family is spending the summer at over Sunday with Heppner friends, the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. French Burroughs on Rhea creek, is a professor in the state teachers' college at Kirksville, Mo. He and his famly arrived here some two weeks ago, glad to be out of the intense heat of the Mississippi val ley. Severe conditions of drouth prevailed there and the Bun shed its blistering rays over the land relent lessly. He states that the latest word received from there was to the effect that there had been no let up and the thermometer regis tered 107 In the shade. Mr. Bur roughs is glad to be in Oregon and enjoy the cooler weather conditions. Mr. and Mrs. D. A.

Crawford, at Sausalito, at which time Mr. Craw ford is taking a vacation from his job in the city, and the O'Donnells will vist with relatives and friends at points about the bay where they used to live. They had some fore bodings about running into diffi culties because of the strike, but decided to take the chance. Mr. and Mrs. C. F. Cutler of Phoenix, Arizona, passed through Heppner Saturday, and Mr. Cutler took a little time to look up some of his old-time friends. Quite a few years ago Mr. Cutler came to the county to recover from what he was advised was tuberculosis with little hope held for his recovery. He got a job working with sheep on the Johnny Woodward farm, slept out in the open and revived his health only to find that he had not been afflicted with tuberculosis at all. He is now enjoying good health and would like to hear from some of his old buddies. His address is Route 5, Box 554, Phoenix, Ariz.

The harvest is finished at theBurroughs farm and a yield of 8 bushels to the acre is reported. For the season, this is much better than was expected, and Mr. Burroughs is quite well satis fied. Some other pretty fair reports are coming in from the Rhea creek and Jordan Butte sections, a num ber of yields around 12 bushels be ing gathered with the combines, and the quality is good. We heard a lot of boasting Mon day about how a game of croquet to be played that evening at the Charley Barlow court was going to turn out; the next day we heard no boasting by the said parties for the game did not end as per schedule. Joe Snyder and Tom Humphreys were pitted against Chas. Barlow and Will Dix, and the former were humiliated. Evidently some addi tional coaching is needed, but not on behalf of the winners. Rodney Keating, who several years ago called on most of the farm homes in the county selling a lead ing make of cream separator and who since was graduated in law from the University of Oregon, was a Heppner visitor Saturday from his oftice in Portland. He expected to cover most of eastern Oregon before returning to Portland in making a survey of business condi tions. ' $.450 Duart wave at Coxen & Chapin Beauty Shop for $3.50 to Aug. 1. Phone 1112.

C. experiment station here from southern Oregon, the Willamette valley and the vicinity of Ontario this year, according to Dr. Don C. Mote, entomologist, and in past years considerable damage has been done by this pest along the upper Columbia river near Hermiston. The squash bug differs from most of the large insects that infest gar dens, Dr. Mote says, in that it has piercing mouth parts and sucks the juice of plants, feeding extensively on gourds, melons, pumpkins, and squash. They have also been found in enormous quantities on the so called "Man in the ground." Be cause of their sucking habits they can be killed only by contact sprays, and recent tests indicate that the pyrethrum spray known as Pyro cide 20, applied according to direc tions on the can, will kill the insects when applied to them. Several py rethrum sprays are on the market under various commercial names, such as Evergreen 20, Red Arrow and others. Evergreen 20 is said to have the same toxic constituents as Pyrocide 20 which was used in the tests. St. Helens The value of West ern Rye grass as an emergency crop that will make hay the same year it is planted has been demon strated in Columbia county where considerable of it was planted this spring after the winter floods and excellent results are being obtained, according to George A. Nelson, county agent. On the Herman Man nen farm at Midland Western Rye was planted the first of April and was ready to cut 80 days later. It will undoubtedly produce two and three tons per acre, Mr. Nelson said. Canyon City The grasshopper menace in Grant county, so far as a serious infestation goes, is a thing of the past for this year, reports County Agent R. G. Johnston. The Logan Valley Cattlemen's associa tion worked diligently and with federal aid for supplies has com pletely wiped out the beds in that district, Mr. Johnston says, thus saving summer feed for at least 4000 head of cattle. The main beds in the Fox Valley district were also poisoned and killed out before the hoppers spread very badly. Strawberry Tests Point To Better New Varieties Results of this year's work in strawberry breeding at the Oregon State college experiment station are highly encouraging to those who have been endeavoring to get Ore gon growers better commercial pre serving and canning strawberry varieties, reports George F. Waldo, U. S. D. A. specialist working in connection with the Oregon sta tion. Farmers who visited the berry plots this year during the various field days saw more than 5000 seed ling plants that had never before fruited, and saw hundreds of oth ers held over from previous years for further testing. Waldo now reports that from those that fruited this year for the first time he was able to select 96 that showed enough promise for continued testing. To hold its place as an important canning and preserving center in the strawberry industry, Oregon needs a variety that is better than the Marshall for the preserving trade, and one that is better in some respects than either the Et tersburg or the Corvallis for the canning trade, says E. H. Wiegand, head of the work in horticultural products at O. S. C. For commercial preserving the trade demands a bright red berry of medium size with bright yellow seeds. One of the U. S. D. A. crosses has these characteristics but is un suited otherwise for this region. It is now being used in further cross ing, and seedlings from it crossed On Any MEAD Bicycle whether you buy from your Local Dealer or from us direct. 5avel(mo On Your SJejrote Prices From 19 75 Up Get full particulars by mail today.

Before the. specialists will recom mend a new variety for distribution they test is for six or seven years to make sure as to its vigor, pro ductivity, freedom from disease and other characteristics aside from the color, flavor, size and general na ture of the fruit itself. Results on this year's irrigation tests are not complete but general observation showed a considerable increase in yield with irrigation and revealed that the matted row yield ed more than the hill system with irrigation.

Three cities in Oregon, to be chosen for their repu tation as well governed municipal ities, will be surveyed by experts under the direction of the League of Oregon Cities, as part of the organ ization's program of maintaining a clearing house on municipal affairs, it has been announced here by Hesv man Kehrli, executive secretary of the league and director of the Uni versity of Oregon's bureau of mu nicipal research and service. Oregon City will be the first to be surveyed, and Charles McKinley, professor of political science at Reed college, will be in charge. Mr. McKinley is also a member of the Portland city planning commission, and is an expert in this work. Selection of two other cities, one of a population from 8,000 to 12,000! and the other from 2000 to 2500, will be announced later. "Oregon City was chosen aa the first city to be surveyed because of the fine reputation It has established for financial administration and ef ficient service during the recent years," said Mr. Kehrli. "This rep utation has been established by the testimony of city officials who have received many helpful suggestions from the officials of Oregon City during recent years, and by the tes timony of business and financial agencies that come in contact with cities throughout the state." When the survey is completed copies will be sent out to all civic officials, and to anyone interested, it is stated. It is planned to pub lish the findings in The Common wealth Review, journal of the col lege of social science of the Uni versity of Oregon. 1 - ..Free iWAMVi m UNION PACIFIC Sample round trip fares to Chicago $80 85 A" chair $04.) hcI.,h tr. $-) Jfl Standard Slcop O "er berth xtr Proportionately low round trip faroi to othor point! oait. cm Fresh Produce LETTUCE, fancy 2 for 15c LEMONS, fancy, Doz. 35c CELERY, fancy, Bunch 10c FEATURING CANTALOUPES Fancy IRRIGON MED.
