THE HERMISTON HERALD, HERMISTON, OREGON. THURSDAY. MARCH 26, 1936 FARM CO-OPERATIVE DIVISION A MESSAGE TO EVERY MEMBER. ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ ■ ■ ■ Legal Notices : =============== No. 9281. Reserve Dist. No. 12 REPORT OF CONDITION OF THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK Columbia Park Clean-Up. The annual clean-up day for the Columbia park will be held Friday, April 3, and as usual work will be done by people in the community who are interested in maintaining such a project. The park furnishes amusement grounds for many people during the summer months. A pot luck dinner will be served at noon. POPULARITY CONTEST PRIZES ARE ON DISPLAY. On display in the Hermiston Her ald window are the two beautiful prizes offered by the Centennial Flouring Mills Company, through the Farm Bureau Co-operative of Hermiston and Boardman, in their popularity contest closing April 18. The first prize, a beautiful fully- guaranteed Elgin ladies’ wrist watch fit to grace the arm of a queen; sec ond prize, one of the most unique and attractive ladies’ dresser sets it has been our privilege to examine. It is so designed as to properly adorn milady's dresser, or can be neatly folded and packed in the daintiest hand bag for traveling, or over-night tripe. We consider the ladies fortunate indeed, who can claim these prizes as their own, and can truthfully say that either one of the prizes are worth working for. It isn’t often that a concern as well known as the Centennial Flour ing Mills company, a strictly North western institution, will offer to our community such a fair and admira ble contest—one with positively no strings attached to it, such as the saving of coupons, writing of letters or essays, etc., and we deem it a pri vilege to work with them, and sin cerely hope that the women of this district will support their program to the fullest extent. The only ‘string’ to the entire program is that in order to vote one must purchase a sack of their Silk- Sifted flour, which flour in itself will prove a revelation to the home baker. CO-OPERATIVES INCREASING IN THE INLAND EMPIRE. Spokane, Wn.—The North Pacific Grain Growers, Inc., report that the cooperative growth in the Inland Empire is reaching record propor- proportions. Mid-season report shows a membership gain of 2200 farmers since 1931, bringing the total to 6900 producer members. According to E. B. Schulz, treasu rer of the North Pacific, the reports from the various locals in this re gion indicate that 193 6 will be equally as good or better than past years. » a » FAVORABLE TIME TO BUY FARM LAND. Co-op Mortgage Association Offers 4 Per Cent Financing Loans. With the need for emergency re financing now largely met, the Uma tilla County National Farm Loan as sociation at Pendleton. Oregon, is now prepared to repder a further constructive service by helping qualified young farmers and tenant farmers finance the purchase of farms they want to own and operate themselves, Secretary-Treasurer J. S. Johns reports. "While a prospective borrower who wishes to purchase a farm must first have savings enough to acquire a clear 25 per cent equity, our coop erative mortgage association can be of much practical assistance in fos tering farm ownership in a sound way.” Mr. Johns explains. "With agriculture now on the up turn. this is an especially good time to buy a farm and pay for it out of improved returns that now seem as sured. It is a tragedy that in the past far too many farmers went into debt to buy land at the wrong time when prices were inflated, with con sequent loss when deflation struck. Now this situation is reversed. Land prices are still reasonable, and In addition farmers can get mortgage 'financing through our cooperative credit system on the most favorable terms in history. "Our association is prepared to make long-term first mortgage Land bank loans to qualified farmers at the record low interest rate of 4 per cent a year, and special first or second mortgage commissioner's loans at the rate* of 5 per cent a year. These loans may also be used to refinance high interest bearing privately held mortgages at a sav- ing. "Furthermore, on farm properties it has acquired and has up for sale, the Land bank is ready to offer very favorable contract terms We will be glad to give full details about this non-profit cooperative service to anyone interested.” Grange Sales Slips. Attention has been called to the fact that all Grangers are asked to be more prompt in putting sales slips into boxes in stores where pur chases are made. In this way as sistance is given in making prompt reports to state headquarters. Pot Luck Dinner.

On ac count of there being five Mondays in March, three weeks will elapse between the last Grange meeting and the next. All members are uregd to be on hand at 7:00 P. M. Notice to Granges. At the meeting of the Westland Grange. No. 827, on Monday, April 6. a pot luck supper will be served, beginning at 7:00 o’clock. Imme diately following the supper the reg ular grange meeting will be conduc- ted. OREGON 4-H CLUBS AGAIN SET NEW RECORDS IN 1935, Four-H club boys and girls of Oregon rolled up a record in num ber of projects carried during the past year, with a total of 22,313 members enrolled in 2303 standard clubs, according to the annual re port recently filed by State Club Leader H. C. Seymour. This was an increase of 1676 members and 216 elubs over the previous year. Club work was conducted in every coun ty in the state. The value of club work in dollars and cents was also considerably in creased, Mr. Seymour’s figures show. Completed projects for 1935 had a gross value of 8228,221.43, a cost of 8143.661.47 and a net profit of 884,559.96, as compared to a gross value of 8193,997.29, a cost of $119,- 912.63 and a net profit of $74,084.- 66 in 1934. Thirty-seven different kinds of projects were carried by Oregon clubbers last year, although not all of these are recommended as stan dard or state-wide projects. The clothing project proved the most popular, with 5,226 members en rolled in 629 clubs. Cookery was next with 4.909 members in 540 clubs, followed by health and growth with 3,551 members in 249 clubs: dairy calf with 1,101 members in 136 clubs: gardening with 872 members in 96 clubs; marketing with 859 members in 63 clubs; handicraft with 788 members in 90 clubs and forestry with 755 mem bers in 81 clubs. Other projects in which Oregon 4-H club members were engaged last year were swine, sheep, beef calf, dairy record keeping, goat, poultry, corn, potatoes, wheat, can ning, homemaking, room improve ment, home beautification, rabbit, bees, farm accounting, forage, rose and flower, pigeon, colt, art, house hold engineering, building, rodent control, agricultural engineering, seed production, gas engine, range management, and quilting. Lane county had the highest club enrollment, with 3,556 boys and girls enrolled In 262 clubs. The City of Portland was next with 2,131 members and 256 clubs, fol lowed by Douglas with 1,762 mem bers and 142 clubs: Clackamas with 1,709 members and 157 clubs, Linn with 1,202 members and 138 clubs and Marion with 1,108 members and 124 clubs. Douglas county had the highest percentage of members completing their projects, and Clackamas club bers showed the greatest monetary value for their work. Mr. Seymour pointed out that "local leaders form the real backbone of club work throughout the state” and deserve a great deal of credit for their un selfish service to the boys and girls of Oregon. — • =- - — FARM ACT NOW IN FORCE: NEW CONFERENCE CALLED. nity committees to assist in local ad ministration of the new plan. A reorganization of administra tion machinery of the AAA last week changed the central arrange ment at Washington from a commo dity division basis to a regional di vision plan. The country is now divided into five regions with a di rector for each. Headquarters for all will remain in Washington. George E. Farrell, formerly head of the wheat section and later the grain division, was named director of the western region which includes the usual grouping of 11 western states plus North Dakota and Kan sas. Northwest farm leaders have welcomed the assignment of Farrell to this division as he is most fami liar with conditions in this terri tory and has made a record already for practical handling of the in volved federal programs. The new organzation will handle the wind-up of the old commodity control contracts, Secretary Wallace announced. It is estimated that Oregon farmers still have about 81,796,000 due for compliance made prior to the January 6 court deci sion. Hermiston Mercantile Co-operative Opens Membership to All Persons With No Conflicting Interests. At the annual meeting of the Hermiston Mercantile Co-operative last Friday evening, the by-laws were amended to allow people liv ing in towns to become members as long as their business interests are not in conflict with those of the co- operative. Persons making the ma jor portion of their living by buying and selling commodities for private profit will be considered as ineligi ble to membership. R. G. Penney and A. E. Bensel were re-elected on the board of di rectors for two years. Sales for the cooperative store during the year 1935 totaled $26,- 700. This is an increase of nearly 100 per cent over the previous year. of Hermiston, in the State of Oregon, at the close of business March 4. 1936.
