Mr.. w. G. Lacy, who returned last
week from visit to Southern Oregon,
informs The Heppner Times that times
down there are much harder than they
are anywhere in the northern part of
the state. = he chief Industry of Jack

but this has become Improbable owing
to the Destructive influence of pest
called the San Jose scale. Spraying

even this seems ta render nothing but
discouragipg results, many orchards
having been dug up aud the ground

together you will not find there the
contented, prosperous and satisfied
class Of citizens that you will in East
