Cleveland farm on Willow creek, found some ingenuity and inven tions that is saving Howard a lot of work as well as time and money . Last year Mr. Cleveland built a granery with a feed room attached. The granary was built up off the ground and the feed room floor is several foet lower than the granary floor. This enabled Howard to install gravity fed elevators, that elevate grain from the two bins out into a feed mixing bin. This in turn is pick ed up by a small elevator elevat ed into his feed roller. The roller is one that was discarded years Surplus disposal agreements for twenty-four million bushels of wheat and 13 and one half mil lion bushels of other grains were announced this year Turkey will get 11 million bushels of wheat and the same amount of feed grains.

Early in the week, John Graves who has recently pur chased a cattle ranch near Hard man, added a Shorthorn bull to his small herd of registered top Shorthorns. The bull, of J. D. Price breeding,' Conrad, Montana, was judged grand champion of the recent Shorthorn Show and Sale at Spokane The bull was outstanding in type and quality. Also added to the herd was two heifers, one of J. D. Price breeding and the other from the University of Idaho. Both are sure to add im provement to the Graves' herd. The bulls that go into other herds were consigned by Everett Harshman and Frank Anderson of Heppner. The grand champion bull of recent range bull sale held at John Day was consigned by Frank Anderson. It was a 2 plus bull that sold far above the se cond placing bull and went into a registered herd as the herd sire. Frank's consignment of 3 bulls graded two 2 plus and one 2. With this grand champion achi evement, this puts Frank another step forwrd, winning top places In the majority of the shows in which he consigned to this ear, THIRTY YEARS AGO From Files of the Gazette Times November 27, 1924 Dallas Ward, student at O.

Gilliam County will be host at this fun night which will be held Thursday, De cember 2 from 8:00 to 11:00 p. m. at the Multnomah Hotel. Of fur ther interest to Morrow County people is the fact that Los Grant, now of Arlington, will act as the master of Ceremonies at this party. The program will consist of mixers, prize dances, square and novelty dances and regular ballroom dancing. A suggestion has been made that ladies who are attending the annual meeting of the Oregon Wheat Growers League, take low heeled shoes with them, so that they might participate in the fun night pro POLITICAL NEWS NAMES ELMER DEETZ, state represen-tative-elect, wants the legislature to enact a milk law that will avoid the mistakes of the past, be meddleproof and permit the grea est possible operation of a free market. The Canby "gallon jug" dairy man who sparked the blow-up of the old Milk Control Administra tion should know how to put a new one together since he so efficiently took the old one apart. SENATOR ANGUS GIBSON had the legislature habit pretty strong. After serving 10 years in the Sen ate and four in the House he re solved not to run again, says he cannot trust himself to stay as near the coming big session as his Junction City home while the boys are whooping it up. So what does he do but hie to Arizona for the duration of the fireworks. SENATOR HOWARD C. BELTON of Clackamas county prophesied in the Senate four years ago that the state would face financial difficulties in 1955, with a possi bility that a state tax on pro perty might be necessary. "The state is spending more than it is taking in. This is brought about by the people vot ing for measures that call for ex penditures outside the 6 percent limitation. It is as simple as that. "The result is a duel in the dark between the assessor and the property owner," he told PETERSON'S JEWELRY again has a big display of distinctive Christ, mas gifts for both men and women.

His election to the House of Representatives this month made him the first former member of the Senate in Oregon's history to be elected to the House. Also the first high state official to follow this course. Walter J. Pearson and his father, Walter E. Pearson, were the only father and son to hold the same high office in this state. His faher's term as state treasurer was from 1938 to 1941 and his term was from 1949 to 1953. A great many legislators have "graduated" from the house "up" to the Senate but this Multnomah Democrat is the first to take a post-graduate course. Monday he pitched punch lines when he hung to his House seat and declined to consider an ap pointment to the Senate. Two va cancies will occur in the Senate when holdover Senators Richard L. Neuberger (Dem) and Jack Bain (Dem) resigned. You may have heardor where have you been Neuberger goes to the U. S. Senate and Jack Bain becomes Commissioner of Multnomah county. SENATOR GUY CORDON was very close in the late election. He reports that he did not spend a cent of his own money. Instead of lame ducking him to India, as was originally proposed, the. plans since his report are to send him to Scotland. NEW STATE OFFICIAL HON. E. J. IRELAND, Molalla businessman, who was a mem ber of the 1951 legislature was the unanimous choice of the state board of control when named as their secretary Tuesday. He will succeed Roy Mills vho wished to retire December 1. Mills has been secretary of the board for the past 12 years. Ireland has been active in civic and political endeavors on a local and statewide scale. During the recent campaign he was office manager in Portland for Gover nor Patterson's successful .bid for office.
