Dozens of hunters from Nyssa were In the hills for the dawn Sunday that ushered In the deer season, but only seven bucks have been brought in to date. Of the seven, the deer bagged by Pud Long boasted the best looking set of antlers, measuring 40 inches from tip to tip and top of skull. Hunters have made up a purse at Powell Service Station, now totaling $25. which will go to the entryman bringing In the biggest horns.

BLODGETT PRE PARES APPEAL FROM RULING IN JORDAN CASES; VALLEY ATTACKS GRAZING CONSTITU- " t i o v a l i t y OF UNTRIED LAW. E. M. Blodgett, attorney for Duncan Fraser and Audrey Ward, local stock- men, and associate counsel with Dean Driscoll for John Mendiola. non-resi dent stockman, is preparing an appeal from the ruling of the Malheur county circuit court that restricts graz ing on public domain within the county. The appeal to the supreme court will be the finals in a range war that has waged since Jordan Valley stock men took the first step in testing a grazing law passed by the Oregon legislature In 1923. Fraser and Ward brought suits to en join the county grazing board from is suing any licenses permitting the graz ing of livestock within the Jordan Val- ! ley Grazing district, organized under the provisions of the untried law. The circuit court sustained a demurrer to the plaintiff's complaint In three cases, thereby upholding the grazing law. Mendiola, Idaho sheepman, raises the point relative to interstate commerce under the federal constitution. The law restricts grazing rights to three classifications Class 1 owners of livestock, who reside within the graz ing district, shall be given the p r e fc - ence in the issuance of permits to graze. Class 2 owners of livestock, those re siding within the state of Oregon but outside the boundaries of the grazing district and who have grazed within such district prior to its formation shall be granted grazing facilities after all Class 1 users have been supplied ade quate grazing. Class 3, transient and non-resident owners of livestock, shall be granted permits to graze only If fac ilities are available in such district after permits have been granted to all Class 1 and Class 2 owners of livestock who make application therefor. After the Jordan Valley grazing dis trict was bounded and formed in Mal heur county, Westfall ranchers made application for a district and later ap plication was made for a district com prising all Malheur county. The grazing board withheld action on the last two applications, pending the outcome of the test of the constitutionality of the law. Bruce R. Kester, district attorney, represents the county In the case. ONIONS REWARD NEW SETTLERS ON BULLY CREEK AND HARPER H. E. Fuchs of Harper cropped onions worth over $2500 from a few acres of river bottom land, that a few years ago was a part of the Harper ranch of the Pacific Live stock company. Fuchs shipped seven carloads. The crop averaged about 560 sacks to the acre, according to Gus Hagglund. assistant county agent. K. Morlnaga. a new settler on the West Bully creek bench, Is harvest ing 120 sacks of onions that will probably average 300 or better sacks per acre, said Hagglund. The land was covered with sagebrush last February and Is under the Vale Irri gation project. Morlnaga's crop Is worth better than $30,000 It is esti mated. Hagglund stated that one can smell onions miles from the Morin- afa ranch. One views an ocean of onions when the ranch comes In sight. Sacking Is now in progress.
