In speaking OF the prosperity of Nor
row county farmers, a prominent bus
mess man of Heppner stated to the
Gazette that he knew of one farmer who
would have $4,000 to loan this fall.
All of the farmers will be prosperous
this fall. With an immense crop and
big price they will have money to burn.
In former times the stock industry
overshadowed agriculture in this county
but that day is thing of the past. The
stock industry still continues as prom
inent factor in the production OF wealth,
but the present great wheat crop far ex-
ceeds in value the income from the
stock industry. Agricultural pursuits
will continue to grow. Morrow county
farmers are doing better farming and
the increased profits as a result of bet
ter farming will be an incentive for
more careful work.

More Wheat for HepPner.

While Heppner never has been
classed as one of the big wheat
shipping points of Morrow county,
indications are now that a large
amount of wheat will be handled
here, there being no question of
the fact that the amount to be
brought here this season will be
much greater than ever before. At
the first of the season, warehouse
men were of the opinion that 49,
900 sacks would be enough to sup
ply the demand of farmers from
this point, but more than $4,000
sacks have been furnished and
most of this wheat will be handled
in Heppner. The principal rea-
sons for the increased amount of
wheat to be handled here this sea-
son are that there was an increased
acreage tributary to US and also
that the yield was exceptionally
good. There is still a large
amount of wheat land tributary to
Heppner that has never been
farmed. All of the wheat brought
in so far is Of fine quality, nearly
all of it going in as No. l.

The barley crop of Morrow county
this year is good, and the crop viii be a
large one. Owing to the fact that the
market is a little off, the transactions
in this staple have been light. The
conditions OF the market will only al
low offerings OF three quarters of a cent
a pound, while growers are holding for
a cent. Warehousem are only buy
ing few small los, Just enough to
supply the immediate demands.

John Miller, of Hardman, informs the
Gazette that nearly all of the wheat
grown in the Hardman section will be
threshed this year. Formerly great
amount of the wheat grown in the vi
cinity of Hardman was cut and put up
for hay, Mr.. Miller stated that the
Hardman stockmen would not sell
many head of stock this fall owing to
the low prices. The grass was good in
the mountains this summer and stock is
IN good condition, and with big hay
crop, the Hardman stockgrowers are IN
a position to hold for better prices.

NEGROES IN ARTILLERY!
CONGRESS DON'T PERMIT
Law Must Be Changed, Says Judge
Advocate General DaYis-General
Barry Plan Disliked.

Judge Advocate General Davis, OF the
army. has submitted an opinion ID the
chief Of stan. relative TO the recon-
mendation made by Brig Gen. Thomas
II. Barry IN his annual report. that
negroes be enlisted for the artillery and
stationed in the South.
General Davis. differing from the con-
clusion reached by General Barry in
his report, holds that there is no au-
thority OF law for she enlistment of
negroes for the artillery and that TO
warrant such enlistments Congress
would first have 10 pass the requisite
legislation.
1t is said that the War Department
does not look with favor upon the
recommendation Of General Barry. IL
is not believed by the authorities that
it would be feasible 20 station negro
soldiers in the Southern states.

Routine and Habits
In Presidents Life
Is Losing No Sleep or Flesh Over Election.
Defeat Would Not Extinguish Him.

The people OF Washington who see

II has not worried him 10 the extent

He gets up and goes to bed at much
