The most loved and hectic season of the year is upon us again those last couple of weeks be fore Christmas when folks begin to get frantic about completing their Christmas shopping before the Christmas Eve deadline. Many a family shopper and that usually means mother actually dreads what too often are the trials and turmoils of this period. They are dismayed at the time it takes to make "shopping trips". They are wearied by fighting traffic and crowds. . But each year there are quite a few more who learn that Christmas shopping actually can be fun as it should be. They have found that by shop ping in Heppner they eliminate many of the complications and trials of big-city shopping. They have learned that traffic congestion in a small city doesn't amount to very much when com pared to that in a big city, and that parking close to shopping spots is an easy and Inexpensive matter. These wise shoppers have found that it is fun, too, to shop in Heppner where stores are large enough and there Is a great enough variety to offer ample assortments of just about any type of gift item desired, while at the same time the shopper saves miles of walking, waiting around for clerks and countless other aggravations.

Yes, it can be fun when you shop at your home town stores. From The County Agent's Office By N. C Anderson One of the biggest representa tions of Morrow county farmers of recent years attended the 30th annual meeting of the Oregon Wheatgrowers League held In Pendleton last Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Evidently the nice weather combined with an inter esting program drew big groups from other counties as well as Morrow since attendance at this year's League was excellent. The six committees were better rep resented by farmers than usual and many recommendations were the results. Recommendations passed at this annual meeting will be included In the annual proceedings which all wheat growers will receive in a few weeks. Visiting with a number of county wheat growers we found that many are planning to at tend the annual meeting of the National Association of Wheat growers which meet at Spokane In early February. Announcement was made this week by the Oregon state dir ector of agriculture that registra tions for the beef commission will continue until Dec. 24. Mor row county livestock men have been slow in registering and it is urged that they register promptly. A good delegation of livestock growers were on hand Tuesday morning to participate in the fence law hearing held by the Oregon state department of agri culture. There has been some controversy for a time concern ing the status of the fence law in Morrow county. The representa tive of the state department of agriculture informed those at tending the hearing that the pres ent status of Morrow county is a closed range. This has been the status since 1949 when legisla tion established this in this county. Implications of the closed range and open range laws were discussed and it was pointed out that it is a simple matter to pe tition and vote for open range by areas or county-wide. Several members of the Morrow County Livestock Growers association have asked that a discussion of the wishes of our county cattle men be held as a part of the an nual meeting scheduled now for January 10 and 11.

Last week we commented about the light horse judging school held recently at Corvallis and the attendance from Morrow county. We have found out since then that some of our horsemen at tending the school placed high in the Light Horse Judging contest hold as a part of the school. Wayne Martin, Heppner was third high judge while Floyd Jones, Heppner, was fourth. It looks as if Morrow county will have some some saddle horse judges to fill the need for such judges through out the state. With Christmas time not too far away and with many people no doubt going to the woods for Christmas trees it might be well to point out a law of the last Legislature at preventing Christ mas tree trespass. Individuals who transport more than five Christmas trees at any one time over Oregon roads or highways must have evidence of ownership unless he is the actual owner of the trees. The individual must have a bill of sale while trans porting t h e trees which must show the name and address of the original owner, the number of trees by species and the descrip tion of the land f-om which the trees were removed. So if you are going to the woods this month to get your Christmas tree, bet ter keep the number under five and be safe or have proof of ownership.
