A GOOD BARN
Entered as second-class matter, December
1906, at the postoffice at Hermiston. Oregon
SUBSCRIPTION RATES
Feed is expensive nowadays. Every possible
ounce of it must be converted into beef or milk or
working energy for the teams.
Stock lacking the protection of a good barn con
sumes most of their feed in fighting the cold—or
lacking the cool refuge of a properly insulated barn
during the heat of summer, becomes indisposed and
loses weight.
1
Feed converted into animal heat doesn’t make
beef or milk or money.
The essentials of a good tarn are good materials,
proper ventilation, sanitation and insulation.
Let us figure with you. It’s our business. We
know how. There is no obligation to buy.
We have a number of different designs to choose
from and will consider it a favor in being able to
quote you prices.

The Times-Record of Valley City.
North Dakota, takes the Non-Par-
tisan League to task for having
been the cause of the soaring of
taxes in that state this year to dou
ble and treble what they were in
1918. The paper gained facts from
the auditor’s books to back up his
statement, and cites any number of
farmers and other property holders
that have been hard hit under the
regime of the League. One instance
is stated of a man named William
Olson, who paid $147.12 in taxes in
the auditor’s books to back up its
taxes on the same property totaled
$475.95, an increase of over 2 2 0 per
cent.
It seems that a merry war is be
ing waged in North Dakota this
year between the League and those
opposed to it. It is pointed out that
things have happened in North Da
kota during the past 12 months that
have tended to weaken the strength
of the Non-Partisan League mater
ially, and it Is fully predicted that
the organization is now sure to
dwindle from the zenith of fame it
had reached something like a year
ago.

sign that you are going to move. If
you dream of smelling smoke, It is
a sign you are asleep and had better
wake up. To see a paper hanger
paper over a flue hole indicates im
pending loss. It is worse luck to
look in a dark closet with a match
than to see the new moon over your
left shoulder. If you can see your
shadow from an oil lamp while fill
ing a gasoline stove, it indicates a
crowd of people are coming to your
house. When the wind moans it is
extremely bad luck to burn trash
near the house. If you smell gas or
gasoline and look for it with a light,
t foretells that you are about to
tart on a long journey. Even if
your house and furniture are cover
ed by insurance, it is extremely bad
tuck to have them burn on Friday
