Mr. and Mrs. E. R. Huston arrived
home Monday from a visit at Salem
with their daughter, Mrs. Mark Tay
lor, and family, and at Albany with
elatives of Mrs. Huston's, They re
turned across the Santiam pass
which they had not seen before.
One of the interesting sights of the
trip to Mr. Huston was the new
courthouse at Albany. Its architec
ture is similar to that of the new
statehouse at Salem, and as well
constructed, being fireproof through
out. Especially interesting to Hepp
ner's recorder was the jail on the
third story. Built to federal specifi
cations, the jail contains the very
latest protective devices with elec
trically operated doors and cound
system that make escape of con
victs next to impossible. Albany was
found to be in a booming state
-with two mills and many new houses
under construction.
Frank Rumble departed yesterday
for Missoula and other Montana
points, expecting to enjoy a two
weeks' visit amidst old-time sur
roundings. Mr. Rumble said that
. when he first visited Missoula in 1897
it was a town no larger than Hepp
ner, though now a sizeable city. He
recalled living at Wisdom for sev
eral years, and one winter saw the
mercury drop to 63 degrees below
zero. Havre, at the same time, reg
istered 64 below, substantiating the
claims of Havre and Wisdom to be
ing the two coldest places in the
United States.
Miss Evelyn Schulz of Portland
visited over the week end at the
home of her parents. Mr. and Mrs.
H. A. Schulz, and with other mem

Erma, recently announced her mar
riage to John Erickson of Portland.

"I enjoyed it a lot," said Earl W.
Gordon, local druggist, on returning
home Sunday from the San Francis
m wnrld fair. Mr. Gordon spent a
week taking in the fair and other
points of interest in the bay region.
That two druggists were of the same

into W. E. Bullard of Gold Beach,
former lone druggist, on fisher
man's wharf where both were seeing
the sights.
Mr. and Mrs. Lee Howell returned
home Sunday from a two weeks va
cation trip on which they visited

from Newport as well as fishing in
various coast streams.

Control of Rabies
Could Be Quite Easy
No disease could be so easily con
trolled as rabies if the right methods
were made compulsory, Dr. W. ti.
Lytle of the state departmnt of ag
ricultural animal division declares
in an article in the current agricul
ture bulletin.
Sentiment makes an effective pro
gram difficult, he points out, adding
that "Until people are willing to obey
and comply with quarantines, all
must endure the danger and incon
venience of rabies."
Under existing circumstances, the
most effective control meathods are
early reporting, restraining, gather
ng up of stray dogs and double
vaccination. '
Landowners in four Oregon lo
calities will decide during September
whether to form soil conservation
districts under the terms of the en
abling act passed by the last legis
lature, announces W. L. Teutsch,
assistant director of the O.S.C. ex
tension service and secretary of the
state Soil Conservation committee.
Onlv one such district has been
formed since the passage of the act,
the South Tillamook district, put into
operation last April. The four ad
ditional proposed districts are in
Clatson. Baker and Klamath coun
ties. Residents in each petitioned
the state committee for the forma
tion of a leeal district by, which to
carry out organized erosion control
or other soil conservation work.
The state committee, composed of
Robert Warren, Forest Grove, chair
man; G. W. Franklin, Enterprise;
Charles E. Stricklin, Salem; Dean
Wm. A. Schoenfeld and Teutsch,
Corvallis, held hearings in each lo
pnlitv following receipt of the pe
titions. The committee recently
passed all four districts as feasible
and arranged for referendum eiec
tions as required by law.
To organize such a district a ma-
ioritv of the landowners represent
int at least 70 per cent of the area
included must vote in favor of the
plan. Those owning at least lO.acres
within the district are entitled to
vote.

proposed. One is the Warrenton

Misinformation which led Argen
tine to include Oregon in its list of
places from which potatoes would
not be accepted on account of tuber
moth has apparently been corrected,
Congressman Walter M. Pierce has
wired the state department of agri
culture which asked that an in
vestigation be made into the whyfor
of the quarantine against Oregon
potatoes. Oregon does not have and
has never had tuber moth, agricul
tural officials point out. Seed pota
toes from Klamath county comprise
the bulk of the shipments from Ore
