At least five Morrow county
men are In Portland today to
hear what the two members of
the Federal Farm Board, have
to say about agricultural relief.
R A Thompson of Heppner went
to Portland the first of the week,
while Chas Smith, county agent,
Chas Jones and Chas Swlndlg
of Heppner, and Roy Campbell
of Lexington left yesterday even
ing.
Mr and Mrs John Krebs and
Mr and Mrs Henry Krebs of Ce
cil were in the citv Monday.
The oil burner which was re
cently installed in the lobby of
the lone hotel was the cause of
a fire there Saturday morning.
Mr and Mrs Ernest Lundell,
Mrs K J Brlstow and Mrs J E
Swanson, of lone attended the
Umatilla district convention of
the Rebekah lodge held in Echo.
Bill Barratt, Heppner, atten
ded the sheep and wool days
held last weekend at Oregon
State College. BUI was especially
interested in the lamb feeding
studies, the tour of experimen
tal lamb feeding pens as well
as other phases of lamb produc
tion and marketing. In making
comparisons of his own feeding
operations he was quite well
pleased to find that his exper
ience and results of feeding pel
lets to lambs compared very fa
vorably with the experimental
work. His daily gain has been
running at hi pound per day
with the college gain only a
fraction different He has found
thai his feed conversion aver
ages about 8 to 1, while the
col.ege results showed a 73 to
1. Bill has this fall Improved
his lamb feeding facilities at his
lf-ed yards on Hinton Creek. His
pellet mill installation has been
slowed down on production due
to repairs being held up be
cause of the steel strike, how
ever, when it gets under way he
will hbve one of the finest set
ups in the entire country.
Remarks made by Al Lamb,
manager of the Morrow County
Grain Growers, at their annual
meeting Monday night concern
ing the cranberry situation and
how this same condition might
affect other crops was wisely
spoken. The affect of the Federal
Drug Administration action in
disposing of cranberries from
bogs sprayed by the weed killer,
Amino Tnazole might easily be
applied to other commodities. Al
mentioned specifically the mix
ing of treated seed wheat with
other grain sold for human con
sumption. A few bushels of this
mixed grain might cause a hard
ship on many people or the en
tire grain Industry. Action is be
ing taken by FDA on such things
as milk from cows which had
been treated for mastitis with
penicillin. Unless farmers and
ranchers heed directions and rec
ognize regulations the popular
ity of their commodity might be
destroyed for some time. We are
sure that the national cranberry
association that has done such
a good job of building up a sales
promotion -program for mark
eting a surplus cranberry crop
will feel the affects. Other farm
product markets could also dis
appear overnight.
James M Burgess today made
public announcement of his res
ignation as superintendent of the
Heppner schools to accept the
position of assistant state school
