With Morrow Courtly Fair
lime drawing nearer each day,
it Is time to urge every farmer
in the county to be planning an
exhibit of some kind for this
year's fair. Classes have been
set up in beef, dairy, hogs, sheep,
poultry, saddle horses, grain and
hay, fruits, vegetables and flow
ers, community booths, home ec
onomics, 4-H and FFA.
We have not had a good fair
in Morrow county for some years.
This is the year to get started
in preparing to exhibit to make
the fair a bigger and better one
in years to come. Premium lists
have been sent to all farmers in
the county. Look over the list
and get your exhibit ready now.
Your neighbor will have an ex
hibit there. Will you?
The county agent, last week,
attended a conference of Gilliam,
Wheeler, Grant, Harney, Sher
man, Morrow county agents at
Condon. The meeting, called by
Wm. L. Teutsch, assistant direc
tor of extension service, Oregon
State college, was for the pur
pose of making plans for the
county agricultural planning
conference that will be held in
these counties during the fall
and winter months. These coun
ties are the last group of all the
counties In Oregon to hold such
conferences.
County agricultural planning
conferences are held in all Ore
gon counties every ten years,
with Morrow county having its
last conference during the win
ter of 193G-37. Advance prepara
tion planning committees will
get under way with a "kick-off"
meeting to be held at Heppner

Wightman Blue Mountain ranch
to see a pasture seeding made
this past spring. The seeding,
made to control gullying and de

The initial seeding was made
on May 15 when 28 acres of cul

permanent mixture of ladak al

per acre. The seeding was made
on cropped land, plowed in the
fall, spring disced, harrowed,
rolled with cultipacker, then
seeded 12 inch deep with a
double disc drill. The field was
rolled again after seeding.
This seeding is a beginning
of a meadow improvement pro

Here lie the remains of a driver who thought he could drink rnnd
Hilt drive a ear, Kacing doicn the highway at a danger out speed, hit
ear wandered off the edge of the pavement, dragged on the $andy
shoulder, and was wrenched into a spin. Drunken drivers are potential
murderers of every other motorist who comes near them on the road.
They were involved in more than 5,000 fatal accidents last year,
National Conservation Bureau safety specialists say even one or two
drinks slow up reactions, make judgment unsure, increase chance of
accident three to four times.
