proceeds go for Christmas treats.
Let's see you all!
Stanley Robison has been busy
cleaning the grade school house
the past week. Repairs have been
completed on the building. The
grade school will be removed from
the high school where it has been
held for the past eight years, to this
building in the near future.
Mrs. Lettie Carter of Salem has
been visiting Mr. and Mrs. Ad Ins
keep and family last week.
Mr. and Mrs. Joe Insley of Circle
City, Alaska, were visiting his sis
ter, Mrs. J. W. Stevens, a few days
last week. This was Mr. Insley's
first visit to Oregon in 35 years
since eoiruf to Alaska.
The Christian Endeavor boys and
eirls are working on a play. "Con
stable Jerry from Fulton Ferry,"
which is a three-act farce comedy,
to be presented at the high school
auditorium Dec. 21, beginning at
7:30. Admission 10c and 25c. The
theme of the play centers about
the schemes of a miserly old store
keeper, Mr. Flint, to cheat a widow
and postmistress of Fulton terry,
Mrs. Bond, who is trying to send
her son through college. (These
parts are played by Irl Clary and
Zetta Bleakman, respectively. iei-
vin McDaniel is the son, Eddie, and
college boy.) In the long run the
old miser is outwitted by Constable
Jerry. Jim Stevens, in a clever
manner. There is Kit, a highly
sophisticated young lady from the
city who is seeking quietude and
new material for a play, played by
Dolly Farrens. Delsie Bleakman
takes the part of June, a charming
girl from the city who comes to
work for Mr. Flint, the storekeeper
and who is rather "sweet" on Ed'
die, the college boy. There is Alf,
the worldly-wise barber who uses
most of his hair tonics on himself,
played by Leon Chapin. There are
the Uplifters, a worthy body of la
dies, who feel that they must pro
tect the morals of the youth of the
city, and incidentally everyone's
business but their own, played by
Lucille Farrens, Pat Bleakman,
Lois Stevens and Opal Hastings.
There is Henry Tilton, on whom the
Uplifters are about to bestow their
charity and who has a new-born
son at his house, played by Roland
Farrens. Mr. Jarvis who arrives
to construct a new bridge, and a
part of Jerry's scheme to outwit
Mr. Flint, played by Tim Kurth,
and his chauffeur is Charles John
son. The scenes are all typical of
a small town and take place in the
postoffice, the meeting place of the
villagers. The characters, too, are
typical small town folks. Come
and enjoy a good laugh, Dec. 21. A
benefit dance with supper at mid
night will follow the play.
Mr. and Mrs. Victor Lovgren and
son, Lloyd Harshman and Miss
Gladys Lovgren were dinner guests
of Mr. and Mrs. Owen Leathers

Vital Changes Made in
New Corn-Hog Contracts
The 1936-37 corn-hog adjustment
contract has been approved and
contract applications will be of
fered to Oregon farmers probably
in January, F. L. Ballard, vice-di
rector of extension at O. S. C, ha3
been notified by the Agricultural
Adjustment administration.
The new contract containing im
portant changes follows closely the
recommendations made by produ
cer-representatives and state ag
ricultural specialists in conference
early last month in Washington
As those preceding it, this program
is entirely voluntary and no on
needs join unless he chooses. It Is
believed, however, that Its provi
sions are attractive enough to
bring an increase in the number
of Oregon signers.
The two-year contract, effective
as of December l, 1930, requires
that the signer produce for market
In 1936 at least 50 per cent of his
market hog base and not more
than 100 per cent of his base if he
is to receive the maximum hog ad
justment payment. An optional
range of 70 to 90 per cent of his
corn base is allowed.
Corn and hog bases under the
new program will be established by
appraisal by community commit
teemen in accordance with stand
ards prescribed by the secretary of
agriculture. This undertaking, new
to commodity adjustment programs,
is designed to permit the assign
ment of equitable bases to all pro
ducers regardless of whether or
not they have previously partici
pated in corn-hog programs or
farmed previous to 1936.
For complying with the hog ad
justment provisions of the 1936-37
contracts, the participating produ
cer will receive his entire hog pay
ment as soon as possible after final
compliance has been checked after
the close of each year. The 1936
rate will be at $1.25 per head for
each hog in the base, less the pro
rata share of the local administrat
ive expenses. Deductions will be
made at the rate of $2.50 per head
if the producer fails to raise 50 per
cent of his base hog numbers and
$5.00 per head if he raise! more
than his assigned base number,
The rates of adjustment and rates
of payments for 1937 will be an
nounced by the Secretary by No
vember 30, 1936, and will be deter
mined from the outlook for sup
plies and prices at that time. To
Holiday Hints Given in
New OSC Home Leaflet
Oregon homemakers who are
searching for hints and suggestions
on preparations for the Christmas
holiday season will find nine pages
of helpful ideas on everything from
how to make the dinner juice or

tions.
A list of eight ideas for wrapping
gifts attractively but inexpensive
ly is another feature of the leaflet,
For instance, it is suggested that
several strands of used white string,
dved with red and green cotton
dves may be twisted together and
tied to leave tassel ends, and used
instead of ribbon. Bright colored
darning cotton may also be used

Governor Martin, thoroughly dis
gusted with what he terms "lack of
cooperation" on the part of the
legislature, is going to carry his
program for the development of
Oregon to the people. His first move
was a double barrelled blast at the
state senate for its defeat of his
capitol construction program. His
next was another blast at the same
group of lawmakers for their de
feat of his mining board bill and
his third move was a criticism of
the legislature as a whole for its
"niggardly" treatment of his flax
development program for which an
appropriation of $1000 was ap
proved after a hard fight.
Discussing the senate's defeat of
his mining board bill with newspa
per correspondents at the capitol
the governor pointed out that Ore
gon is rich in mineral resources but
declared that the investing public
knew nothing about these resources
and nothing was tieing done to in
form possible investors. Scouts
for eastern industrialists ( seeking
investment in Oregon, he' pointed
out, were unable to secure any
authentic information regarding
the state's mineral resources simp
ly because there was no such In
formation available. The governor
sponsored a bill at the special ses
sion creating a etate minng board
and providing a small appropriation
to finance research and surveys but
the bill was killed in the senate by
a vote of 20 to 7 after passing the
House with only three votes op
posed.'
Motor vehicle registrations in
Oregon reached a new all-time
high this year with a total of more
than 300,000. Nearest previous ap
proach to this record was in 1930
31 when registrations totalled 283,
649. Secretary of State Snell points
out that an unusually large pro
portion of the cars registered this
year were new ones. The new lSMb
plates will be available December
15 with 20,000 numbers already as
signed and ready for mailing.
