Looks Like It's A Must
Construction of a
sewer system
the near future scorns a certainty.
of fact, there appears to be little else the city
government can do ahout it as the slate sanitary
board in.si.sts it must be done. The council has
taken preliminary steps and will press the work
ing out of details in ensuing weeks.
It is to be hoped that wrong impressions will
not bo gained and spread relative to this improve
ment. Up to the present the council is not prepar
ed to give out definite information. As soon as
plans arc completed for construction and financ
ing, proper information will be released. There
will be difficulties to iron out and it is reasonable
to expect that there will be misunderstandings.

forth gave a talk on a union high
school between Heppner and

vote was taken to satisfy Mr,

ther it was worth their time and
effort to continue the work. The
vote carried to their satisfaction

standard, but all can be accom

Nicely Say State Ofticials
A representative of the state
department of education visited
the lone high school on Monday,
February 2, 1948, and spent most
of the day in examination of the
building, equipment, classroom
instructon, and In conference
with the principal. The following
comments and recommendations
are made as a result of this visit:
The lone high school is central
ly located on a site which seems
adequate for both elementary
uid high school purposes. During
the visit of the state department s
representative, snow obscured the
view of any landscaping, shrub
bery, or turf which might exist,
but the situation seemed quite
satisfactory.
The school at lone has been
fortunate in having a continuity
of administration. This has been
reflected in the courteous atti
tude and conduct of the students.

pearing before the Morrow Coun
ty Farm Bureau Monday evening,
April d, gave an interesting his'
troy and function of that expert
ment station. Perhaps the most
interesting part of his talk be
fore 52 farm bureau members and
others attending was the rela
tionship of age of breeding hei
fers at that station compared to
calf crop from the heifers and in
years following. Mr. Sawyer brot
out that heifers bred to calve at
two years old calved at the rate
of 62 percent regular calving
(year after year) with 38 percent
of these skipping calving during
the period the experiment has
been carried out. Sixty-eight per
cent of these cows (calved as two
year olds) calved early each year
while 32 percent of this group
were late calvers.

the students is a highly import
ant factor in the learning situa
tion of a school.
The plan for a complete test
ing program in Morrow county
should be most helpful to th
school staffs in diagnosing in
dividual difficulties of the stu
dents and in the discovery and
correction of departmental weak
nesses. Another commendable aspect
of the school is the high percent
age of students who are enrolled
in the sciences. Modern living
makes a basic understanding of
science almost a necessity.
It is the feeling of the state
department's representative that
the school at lone is progressing
nicely.

in the past to control wire worms
and other insects. Here is Every's
reason for not recommending
benzene hexachloride.
Rather than use this insecti
cide, Every says ethylene diobro
mide or DDT will do the control
job without affecting the taste
of the market product.
And to farmers who used ben
zene hexachloride during iy47,
Every says look out. There are
indications that this insecticide
will continue to give potatoes and
other root crops a bad flavor for
two seasons. That is, even if the
insecticide is not used again this
year,
