Shall We Clean Up? We will not say that Hermiston citizens should be censored for their lack of civic pride, but for their lack of achievement in the clean-up program sponsored by the Commer cial club last Friday and Saturday. It cannot be said that the plan was not properly outlined nd organized. Persons were assigned to a definite district to superintend the clean-up and were notified in advance by Boy Scouts who delivered lists to each superintendent. The clean-up need not be set for any special week end. but may be achieved on any day. A little raking here, a little pick-up there, a little burning here, and considerable more raking and the improvement in ap- pearance will be pronounced. Let’s see what can be done for our city without a clean-up pro- gram! Watch the fight arena lot. HOW THE BANKS AID THE GOVERNMENT But maybe you were born with just your state of mind. Just that way.

Fokker Is Honored for 25 Years in Aviation Amsterdam. — Using a self-de signed and self-constructed air ma chine, Anthony H. G. Fokker twen ty-five years ago obtained a pilot’s license. Celebrating this event, crowds thronged the Amsterdam airfield to witness an air circus.

Disappointments persisted in meeting you at the cross roads. The munificent hand of Providence has been rather "Scotch" with you. Why should you feel humble in spirit and thankful in heart? Passing our window on Main street (which is everybody’s high- way of life) is Aunt Jane driving her Model T with a bunch of 20 cent birds, and smiling right and left.

Rattlesnake Farms Dealt Death Blow Waukon, Iowa.—A death blow to “rattlesnake farming"—the business of raising rattlesnakes to collect the bounty on them— has been delivered by supervis ors here. The supervisors declared the 50 cents apiece bounty on the poisonous reptiles will be with held unless the killers can show four inches of the snakes’ tails. Formerly the rattlesnake farm er merely removed the rattles and took them in for the bounty, whereupon the snakes lived to produce more rattles.

These funds. In turn, have gone to the assistance of distressed banks and other financial institutions, to aid industrial and agricultural enterprises, to finance new public and private capi- tai construction, and to provide relief to the unemployed.” Dr. Moulton declared that it Is not true that the world depression was caused by a breakdown of the American banking system “which did not. In fact, occur until the depression had been under way for more than three years." He added: “Nor is it true that the world mat adjustments existing in 1929 can be ex plained simply by undue extensions of commercial banking credit in the pre ceding years. These malaajustments in volved world agricultural industrial commercial and financial relations." CHURCH NOTES CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CHURCHES ORTALS and Immortals” . was the subject of the Les- son-Sermon in all C h u r ch e s of Christ, Scientist, on Sunday, No vember 15. The Golden Text was: “If ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. The Spirit itself bear- eth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God” ( Rom. 8: 13, 16). Among the citations which com prised the Lesson-Sermon was the following from the Bible: “Final ly, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good re port; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things" (Phil. 4: 8). The Lesson-Sermon also includ ed the following correlative pass ages from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures”, by Mary Baker Eddy: "Let unsel fishness, goodness, mercy, jus tice, health, holiness, love—the kingdom of heaven reign within us, and sin, disease, and death will diminish until they finally disappear. Let us accept Science, relinquish all theories based on sense-testimony, give up imper fect models and Illusive ideals; and so let us have one God, one Mind, and that one perfect, pro- ducing His own models of excell- enee’’ (p. 248).

FOR PRINTING FARM ACCOUNTING REVEALS LESSONS Principles of Sound Business Management That Apply to All Farms PRICES EFFECTIVE /Ti UNTIL WED. EVENING An analysis made of detailed records kept by a group of Wisconsin farms revealed several important lessons and the principles of sound business man agement derived from them apply equally well to other farms, says an article In the Bulletin o. the Agricul turai Commission of the American Bankers Association The article says: “Investment costs, including Inter est. depreciation, repairs, taxes and In surance. are approximately two-thirds of all farm costs Furthermore, these costs are largely independent of the production program of the farm. “This means that If a farmer cuts his production of crops or livestock, he Increases his investment costs per unit of product produced, as a smaller number of units must then carry as large an expense load as before. This illustrates the Importance, from the standpoint of costs, of operating a farm at or near capacity, “Investment mistakes are more cost ly than many others because they can not easily be corrected. If a farmer pays too much for his farm, his invest ment costs will be abnormally high as long as he owns it. If he constructs a S4.000 barn, when a $2.000 barn would have served his purpose, he will have excessive barn costs, year after year, during the entire service life of the structure "This emphasises the Importance of a knowledge of Investment values and the specific Investment requirements of Individual farms Determining Real or False Economies "In working for greater economy. It Is essential that the farm manager be able to distinguish between a real and a false saving This can be done only through a.careful estimata of the con tribution to income, over a period of •Ime. of each Item of expenditure. Only If more is saved in expense than will be lost In income, can a contemplated cut fn expense be designated as a real saving "For example, dropping dairy herd improvement work may result in a yearly expense reduction. The ques lion to decide Is what effect the drop ping of this work will have on the present and future income from the dairy herd If the estimated lose in live stock receipts due to a lowered efi ciency In feeding and breeding i greater than the original saving, then It would obviously he a false economy “Substantia savings ran he effected on many farms through the use oi more home grow n garden produre and farm en ed meats Why nav out money for products of this kind that can he produced much cheaper st home? Th money saved from the family fono budget ran be used for the purchase o’ many things ths: will make the farm home a more comfortable and pleasant NOV. 25th.
