THE BLOOD CALL
There is no finer sight in this
old world than perfect blood loy
alty-families bound by the ties
of blood, cemented into one com
pact band to promote and defend
the interests of the whole.
The hour has struck when this
call is ringing clear and loud
above all others in the ears of the
American people. Every city,
every town, every hamlet and
every community in the land has
given of its best beloved blood to
swell the expeditionary forces on
the battle fields of France.
These men have gone to fight
our battles. They have offered
their all in our service. The
blood tie holds them firmly to
the task which they are dedicat
ed to. We have the word of the
commanders that their sacrifice
is complete—that the blood loyal-
ity is perfect.
But is theirs to be the only de
monstration of the power of blood
loyalty? What man worthy the
name, if he has a friend fighting
his battles, will not back him up
and support him to the limit of
of his power? Is the sacrifice to
be out of all proportion to the
gratitude of the beneficiary?
These thousands,these hundreds
of thousands, who have gone,
are going, and who are yet to go
—flesh of our flesh and blood of
our blood—are appealing to us
through every affection of the
human heart for support, for
sustenance, for co-operation,’for
power. These we must furnish ,
or their sacrifice will have been
in vain.
But we Americans need to be
told that the very essence of blood |
loyalty is Sacrifice. Not only a
professed willingness to sacrifice
if necessary, but real sacrifice—
the total subordinating of our in
terests to theirs.
Mothers, fathers, sisters, bro-
thers, friends of our soldier boys, |
are we heeding the blood call?
Or are we by our lethargy and |
indifference manufacturing Ger
man bullets for their breasts—
for that is the inevitable result
if we fail in our response to the
call.

I j PROJECT DEMONSTATION WORK
I A change in management of
I j the experiment station at Her-
I miston has been made to fill the
vacancy in the office of Project
I | Agricultural Demonstrator caus-
I ed by the resignation of Paul S.
I Jones. Demonstration work on
I the project has been conducted
for three years with special em-
phasis on the preparation of land
for irrigation and crops. In this
work the results of determina
tions made at the experiment
station were taken direct to those
I who were reclaiming the land.
The demonstration work has
for a time been partially taken
care of by R. W. Allen, superin
tendent of the experiment station.
During this time a change has
been worked out which releases
Mr. Allen from the experiment
station and places him in charge
I of the demonstration work, and
puts H. K. Dean in charge.
This transfer will enable the
demonstration work to be decid-
edly broadened. The most im-
portant phases of agriculture on
the project will now be given at-
tention, as well as the work of
laying out ditches, etc., being
continued. Requests for assist
ance on agricultural topics gener
ally should be directed to R. W.
Allen, who has an office in the I
reclamation building.
All of the work of the experi
ment station will be continued. I

HERMISTON,
OREGON
Many of the experiments demon
strate practices which can be
adapted to good advantage on j
numerous farms on the project |
Everyone who is desirous of |
learning more about the business
of farming, and those who wish
to see the progress and results of
the work should go to the experi
ment station and look the numer
ous experiments over.
It is thought that these
changes will greatly favor the
agricultural development on the
Umatilla project since men hav
ing a thorough knowledge of the
experiment station and demon
stration work are now in charge.
We have just received a new supply of “Rite Grade
Shingles.” The right grade label on a bundle of shingles
means full value in that bundle. It means that the associa
tion has inspected and o. k’d them for no sap, for selection,
for thickness, for size, for grain; in fact it means a perfect
shingle, true to specifications.
One of our local contractors who has been here ten years
said that they were the best shingles he has ever seen in
Hermiston.
For Sale—Roselawn Farm, one and
one-quarter miles southwest of Her
miston. One of the finest orchard
alfalfa tracts on the project. Mrs.
