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.

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.
The members of Westland Grange
will have a pot luck dinner at the
next Grange meeting which will oc
cur the evening of April 6th. 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.
