die the cob8 on which corn grows,
thanks to a new advance in gram
storage methods recently reported
to the American Society of Agri
cultural Engineers.
The development is a grain dry
ing and storage unit that malus
the corn picker-sheller a practical
harvesting machine for corn grow
ers and cuts farm labor and stor
age costs. I). B. Poor, agricultu) al
engineer for the Great Lakes Steel
Corporation's Stran-Steel Division
and A.S.A.E. Farm Structures Di
vision chairman, reported to the
Society that shelled corn of up to
25 per cent moisture content can be
dried successfully with unhealed
air while stored in this unit.
"This means." he said, "that the
time is now at hand when farmers
can eliminate much of the work
and structural costs they now put
into coddling the cobs on which
corn grows."
The new unit was described as a
16-ft. wide Quonset equipped with
a unique down-flow aeration sys
tem. Drying and cooling the grain
are accomplished by means of a
semi-pressure propeller fan which
draws unheated air into the build-
i i i .-.I
ing, down through the grain, into
a cenirai tunnm uvn wim.., i..
grain is piled, and then out of the
building.
"This unit will handle grains
other than corn equally well. ' Poor
said. "It permits the small-grain
grower to start combining earlier
in the season, earlier in the day,
and enables him to combine when
moisture conditions are too high
for placing grain In ordinary
atorage."
Mr. and Mrs. Harry Capon and
children were business visitors
in Heppner last Saturday. They
also spent part of the day visit
ing relatives and friends.

Morrow County has added a
new livestock dub. It is the But
tercrcek Junction 411 Livestock
Club, who held their first meet
ing Sunday. Among the business
for the day was the selection of
the name by which they would be
identified.
Meeting at the Dan Blewett
ranch, the members completed
the organization of the club,
which had been started at the
Pine City school a week earlier.
Officers of the new club are: pre
sident, Jack Lieullan; vice-
president, Douglas Terry; secre
tary, Eva Pearson; news reporter,
Carlcne Rea; song leader, Phillip
Graham. Other members are
Robert Campbell, Judy Terry,
Dale Kline and Bill Doherty. All
ae carrying heef projects. Lead
ers are Arlis Kline and Carl Rhea.
At the Sunday meeting, Mr.
Kline went through the 4-H pro
ject material with the members
acquainting them with the vari
ous records and materials. Mem
bers visited steer calves on feed
owned by Phillip Graham, Jack
Lieullan and Dale Kline. All of
these members live at the Tucker
Echo ranch.
Two Morrow County ranchers
ave started a fund for a scales
to be located at the fairrounds.
They are Lloyd Howton, lone and
John Graves, Heppner. Their con
tributions were $69 and were vol
untary. They ask that scales be
erected at the fairgrounds for
weighing fat 4-H calves, pigs and
sheep that go through the auc
tion sale.
Ascales has been needed for
this purpose for some time and
it is hoped that more funds can
be found to go with this to get
them in by fair time, this year.
Of course they can and will be
used for weighing any of the
livestock exhibits made at the
fair

l( EATON COMEDY TO BE FEATURED
AT JOHN DEERE DAY PROGRAM
Highlights
Full Program
for
Farm Families
Buster Keaton, long famed
as a comedian of stage and
screen, stars in "Paradise for
Buster.' the feature film that
highlights the John Deere Day
program to be given for far
mers and their families Tues
day February 17, by Empire
Machinery, local John Deere
dealer. The program, which is
free, includes a complete list
of entertaining and education
al pictures in full color. It
will be held at Star Theater
and is scheduled to begin at
1:30 p. m.
A feature-length comedy,
"Paradise for Buster" is the
story of a would-be bookkeeper
with a rare skill for incurring
the merciless wrath of the
company "brass". So well does
Buster exercise his special tal
ent that finally he and the
chairman of the board reach
the loud and unanimous de
cision that the firm and the
world in general will benefit
by Buster's removal from the
pay roll. And so it happens,
but not before Buster falls heir
to a farm left him by his uncle
Burr McKeaton, a situation
that gives him a new feeling
of independence which he as
serts at the painful expense of
the bewildered "brass." With
the farm, Buster also inherits
more than a dog's share of
troubles, and his stumbling,
fumbling struggle for survival
provides a story that will de
light young and old alike.

Tom once more musters his
limitless supply of stubborn

Additional Full-Color Films
In addition to "Paradise for

certain to interest farmers and
their families will be shown.
Among these is "Oddities in
Farming," a film that reveals
rare practices employed in
specialized fields of farming
seldom witnessed by most far
mers. Some of these practices
are so peculiar to a particular
locale that they are applied
only in the instances shown in
this film, according to Grabill.
