J. W. Witherell of Pendleton com pleted an audit on the Hermiston Umatilla Cooperative Creamery books this week which shows that a total of *800 in profits have been made for members thus far, besides paying off a *1500 indebtedness. The report was presented at a board meeting last Thursday by B. E. Sykes, manager. The plant has paid an average of one cent a pound above the local cash price for butter- fat since it started operation. More new members have been ad ded to the cooperative creamery re cently and over 1000 pounds of but- terfat a day is being taken care of at present, with a total of 27,000 pounds going through the plant last month. The next board meeting will be held December 5th in Assistant Coun ty Agent Best’s office at which time more important matters will be taken up. The board members were pleased with the last report. LLOYD GEORGE AND CHIEF RASBERRIES FOUND VALUABLE. Two new varieties of red raspber ries, Lloyd George and Chief, have just been recommended for trial plantings on a commercial basis throughout the northwest as a re sult of three years of study of them at the Oregon State college experi ment station. The Lloyd George is considered as a possible successor to Cuthbert as a major commercial crop berry, while Chief is believed to have a more limited field. Dr. George M. Darrow, senior pom- ologist of the bureau of plant Indus try, who is doing special cooperative research work at Corvallis, announ ces that the Lloyd George variety is hardier and more productive than Cuthbert, that its fruit ripens about 10 days ahead of the Cuthbert, and bear a fall crop amounting to as much as a ton to the acrg on the tips of the new canes. The berries of this new variety are "the largest of any commercial variety yet tested, the largest being almost the size of the average logan berry. They are uniform In size, hold the size well through the sea son, and are more firm than the Cuthbert. Its weaknesses are that Its flavor Is hardly as appealing to some as the Cuthbert, and it is not quite as sweet. Its canes are some what shorter, though more produc tive per foot. This variety originated as a chance seedling In England and was introduced there In 1920, since then it has become the leading sort. It was later Introduced into New York where It has been recommended by the state experiment station. East ern nurseries have certified stock. The Chief variety Is recommended because of Its exceptional hardiness and productiveness, combined with excellent flavor and ripening, ex ceeding the Cuthbert by two weeks at Corvallis. The berries are too small for general commercial can ning use and the plants are subject to wilt. For local market purposes Its bright red berries that do not turn dark, and Its good quality and productiveness make it worth plant ing on a small scale at least, says Dr. Barrow.

Some of the finest turkey breeding stock obtainable has been brought to the Hermiston project by turkey growers returning from the turkey grading school held at Roseburg last week. J. Jendrzejewskl brought 10 toms of Shelton strain, one of which was from Bird Brothers, Oakland, Calif., and 10 hens, pullqts, Shelton strain from Bonebrake, at Oakland. Guy Cronk brought In 10 Shelton strain, yielding hens, and two Bird Brothers yielding toms, from Bone- brake, at Oakland. Logan Todd also brought in 10 pullets from Bird Bro thers, and three toms from Shelton strain. Five men from Hermiston return ing from Roseburg laBt Saturday night bringing the breeding stock with them were: Lyle Tilden, Guy Cronk, J. Jendrzejewskl, Logan Todd, and Garnet D. Best. Mr. Best, together with Logan Todd and J. Jendrzejewskl attended the grading school sessions while in Roseburg, and according to Mr. Jen drzejewskl, obtained some valuable information. The turkey industry on the proj ect Is growing and at least as many car loads of turkeys will be shipped this year as last. The total number of cars last marketing season reach ed five. Growers expect the quality of birds to be higher this year. Saturday will be the day for the first big shipment made by the East ern Oregon Turkey Growers from the south end of the McNaught warehouse, which Is being made ready by a crew of men supervised by Lyle Tilden. There will be a local crew of men packing with John Can- nut of Roseburg handling the grad ing. Growers are asked to keep their schedule to the letter In order to pre vent the forming of a waiting line. If one grower is late the other fel low has to form a line and that Is what the management wants to pre vent. It is expected that a good carload of 2800 birds will be rhipped at this time, averaging 20000 pounds. Piano Recital Date Set. Miss Golda Mumma will present some of her pupils in a piano recital at the Baptist church Friday night, November 20. They will be assist ed by the high school orchestra and glee clubs under the direction of El eanor Daily. An evening of good music is promised all those who at tend. The public Is cordially Invited. You may depend upon it that he Is good whose intimate friends are all good.—Lavater. The two standard methods at pre sent are the mercuric chloride (cor rosive sublimate) bath. In which the potatoes must remain for two hours, and the hot formaldehyde bath, which has the disadvantage of re quiring that the water be kept at a constant temperature of around 125 degrees. A third method which makes use of organic chemical com pounds has proved uncertain and er ratic in results. The new method, originated by Dr. J. G. Leech and associates of the Minnesota experiment station, Is based on the mercuric chloride pro cess but changed by the addition of 1 per cent of commercial hydrochlo ric acid. Thia acidulated mercuric chloride solution, as It is called, is so greatly Introased In effectiveness that a hath of but'5 minutes is ne cessary. Tests of this precess were made for the first time this year, and only on a comparatively small scale, but the results are so promising that Mr. Dykstra belives the method is wor thy of much more extensive trial, and he has made p(ans to use it on large plots next year. The tests this year showed that with the. new method 96 per cent control was obtained as compared with 16 per cent freedom of disease on the check plot. This control was equal to the old mercuric chloride process and better than the hot for maldehyde method. Dr. Leech ad vised using double strength mercu ric chloride, which would greatly In crease the expense, but the tests by Mr. Dykstra showed excellent re sults with the standard solution, 1 part to 1000, with 1 per cent acid added. BRINGS OUT TALENT IN SENIOR CLASS. Plot Involves Guests at a Summer Resort Which Develops Into Per plexing Situation for Landlord. Members ‘of the Senior class pre sented the annual play entitled, “The Arrival of Kitty” to a capaci ty house last Friday night in the Oasis theatre, in a manner which amateurs may be proud.

BULLD06S M AKE FOOTBALL HISTORY BY DEFEATING HEPPNER ONLY TOUCHDOWN SCORED BY BLOCKING PUNT. Stubborn Resistance of Opposing Team Broken Down by Hermiston E leven; Breaks Advantageous. For the first time In the history of football warfare between Hermis ton and Heppner on tho Heppner field the Bulldogs, in an Armistice day battle, collected the larger share of the reparations amounting this time to 7-0. Heppner paid this in demnity early in the second period of the game when they got posses ion of the ball on their own two yard line. While attempting to kick from behind their own goal line three or four Bulldogs smashed through the line. Settle blocking the punt, and Harris taking advantage of the break, pounced on the ball for the only touchdown made in tho hard fought battle replete with thrills and excitement, Klnges kicked the ball through the goal posts for the extra point.’ The game was well played by both teams although tile Bulldogs were generally considered by unbiased ob servers to be the more versatile and snappier of the two elevens.
