dius. During the past three years things have been done there that the average farmer with his nose to the grindstone little surmises, and it is for his good. The day may help him to use some brains along with his brawn that stubbornly labors to take a living from the soilwithout giving anything back, or applying horse sense to adaptability and ro tation of crops. The farm is on a spot of the average sandy soil found in the Columbia valley between The Dalles and Lewiston, and reaching up the various tributary valleys, and it is here to serve this large terri tory. Local people at least should know what it is all about, and on August 31 they will be given a whole day to find out. Uhe irrmtatun he ralò Published every Thursday at Hermis- tea, Umatilla County.

MEMBER ON EDI r Do You Want Electric Power ? A Continued Question? The Butter Creek and Diagonal highway carry a great deal of traffic from tributary territory for a radius of 35 miles which makes it one of the leading secondary highways in this section of the county, aud yet it has never been oiled. Why? The road is nearly impassible due to the wash-boardy condition which continues to get more deplorable each day as the dry season advan- ces. Cars which must travel over this highway are being wrecked as each mile Is covered, and alas these cars are owned by taxpayers in the county who pay tor maintenance of these roads. We have asked re peatedly to have this road oiled as a main tributary highway but have repeatedly been refused without ap parent justification for leaving this highway in such an impassible con dition. As we said before, we have been patient and courteous in our request—to say nothing of our con- slstency — and now we demand to know why! A farmer from the Butter Creek district drove over the road last week with a load of hay on a wagon and nearly lost the load before he reached town due to the ruts over which the wagon must Jitter on Its way to town. The wheels nearly rat tled off and the bouncing the driver endured was terrific. Why? Anoth er farmer declared that by traveling over the road the spokes wore through an iron wheel. Why? Our local officials have contacted county and state highway officials repeatedly asking that the Butter Creek and Diagonal roads be oiled in order to cut down maintenance expense and to prevent such a con dition as now exists, but each time they have been given an indefinite statement of a promise for work on the road later. Why We are going to find out why!. If you want electric light and power on your farm, speak up. The rural electrification administration is going to spend 150,000,000, and those who come first and strongest will be cared for. This is a good field for this operation, and the costs will be made within the possi bility of the average farm to pay. both for installation and daily uses. The Farm Bureau, Grange, Commer cial Clubs and other organized bod- ies should see what can be done about it now. Why Not Here? Chehalis had a 7000 egg omelet in a celebration of the growth of the poultry industry round-about the town. Ten years ago Chehalis had no more white leghorns than we had. That locality is no better than this for the layers of high grade eggs. In several ways we have distinct ad- vantages. The opportunity is still here, if we do not scramble it.
