SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE
Ben Smith spent Sunday with friends
in Hermiston.
W. W. Caldwell was down from Her
miston the first of the week on s visit
to the parental home.
The old fashioned tsffy pulling par
ties seem to be the order of the even
ings the past week, the first being at
the home of Brice Rider. W ednesday
night be came in with a bayrack and
took a load of younz people to his
ranch home. Reporta are to the effect
that everyone present had the sort of
time they usually have at taffy pull
ing parties. The second was given by
Miss Esther Graybeal at ber home
Saturday night, and a good time is re
ported by all who were lucky enough
to be there.
Fred Erwin was down spending the
week-end with bis sister, returning
home Sunday afternoon.
Mrs. Lester assisted the teacher in
the sewing club work last Friday
afternoon and it is not to be wondered
at chat the club is doing splendid work
with such'good help.
Mr. Rider has brought his sorgum
mill to the home of Mr. Graybeal and
is grinding the juice out ol the cane
for that family’s use. They will prsc
tice Hoover’s plan this winter by us
ing sorgum instead of sugar.

We are in the midst of the worst coal famine
that the west has ever seen.
The car shortage and the labor problem has
limited the output of the Utah and Wyoming mines
to such an extent that they cannot begin to fill their
orders.
We expect to have a
Car of Rock Springs Coal
on track the first of the week, which will be $10
out of car.
So take advantage of it and stock up.
When in town come in and give our Cedar Stock
the once over and see what you need.

Fred Davia came in with two large
bonkers last Saturday evening.
Mrs. Lane is sick with the grip this
week.
Miss Lois Samson came home Satur
day to spend the week-end with her
parents, returning to Umatilla Sun
day afternoon.
Mr. Lane left Tuesday for Priheville
where he expects to enter the employ
of the Newport Construction Co.
The professor is getting to be a
rancher as well as teacher, if owning
cows, pigs and chickens can be classed
in the agricultural line.
He bas
bought a fine cow and will cut down
the high costof living this winter.
The high school pupils are testing
milk cows these days and everyone
with poor milk cows will have no ex
cuse for keeping unprofitable dairy
stock. When the milk tests less than
four per cent the cow should be sold
for beef.

“The Mystery of the High School
Basement, or Who Broke the Water
Pipe,’’ still remains unsolved.
It is a trite saying that the business
man who does not advertise in his
local paper has no right to complain
about the mail order house taking his
business away. While public spirited-
ness in a few men may keep a town on
the map, it requires the co-operation of
all to build a real community center.
With the new postage rates in effect
we are now buying three cent stamps
instead of twos, says the Milton Eagle.
The three-cent postage will not be
felt to any marked degree by individ
uals, but considered nationally will
amount to millions of dollars to help
win the war with Germany. It’s one
way of doing a “bit” toward licking
the Kaiser.
Property in this county Will be
assessed at eighty per cent of its
value, according to the ruling of the
•tate board of equalization, and it is
upon this ratio that railroad« and
other utilities will be taxed. The
state commission assesses these pub
lie utilities atan estimated cash valua
tion, with the result that in this
county they will be required to pay
eighty per cent of that valuation.
