THE CLARK HEIRS WIN
Grundy County Farm Reverts to
OreEOnianS.

The supreme court OF Missouri ha
otfirmed the Judgment OF the Grnnd,
circuit court for tn plaintiffs in tn
romantic and noted law suit of tn
Clark heirs for the possession OF a farm
of 100 acres located te9 miles west o
! Trenton. The final turn in the case
which first came up before Judge Alex
ander of Galla'in, sitting .s sppca
| Judge here, elects the present occupants
and gives co troll OF the land 70 TIE
heirs of Cynthia Clark. The decision
recalls case of more tn an ordinary in
terest on account of fact that it inv w.
ed records extending as far back as
1851. and because OF a tragic Incident
that surronunded the first / gal steps
The land in controversy was decided
by James Arstin in 1915 70 Cynthia

Clark afterwards transferred her in
terest to William TIA Dor, through whom
the defendants claimed possession
When her husband died Mrs. Clark
moved with her children to Oregon, and
died in September, 1902.
After the transfer of her interest in
the land to Tabor, it seems. he later
instituted partition proceedings and
bought in the land at public sale, The
legality of this proceeding was attack ed
bv the heirs. The Clark heirs claimed
the land under the deed of Ja.nes
Austin, alleging that the deed their
mother gave to Tabor was Only for the
life interest he'd by her The docu-
ments supporting this claim had been
reserved and soon af er her death the
suit was brought. TIE defendants,
named as A. r. Browo, J. A. Clay

ORGANIZATION EFFECTED.
Heppner Wool GrOWers' Assocfa-
tiOm Organized.

The Heppner Wool Grower
Association was reorganized in thi
city last Saturday.
1t was a representative meetiu
in which about 40 Of the leadin
wool grow ers of Morrow, Gillian
and northern Grant counties wer
in attendance. 1t is the purpos
of the association to include al
who are interested in the WOO
growing industry in the territory
tributary to Heppner.
A. Andrews, president of thu
former organization of wool grow
ers, called the meeting to order
D. o. Justus acted as secretary.
It was a meeting of business and
considerable interest was shown
among the many growers present
The bylaws provide that the
officers must be elected from the
executive committee of the organi-
zation consisting of seven wool
growers. The executive elected
was as follows:
O. E Farnsworth, D. O. Justus,
George Perry, J. L. Howard. j. b..
Wyland, John Kilkenny and r. F.
Hynd.
The following officers were elect
ed from the executive committee:
O. F.. Farnsworth, president;
George Perry, vice president; D.
O. Justus, secretary-treasurer.
There was considerable discuss
ion and the prevailing sentiment
WAS to keep up a strong organiza-
tion in order to help secure for the
members their share of the sum-
mer range when the Blue Mount
ain forest reserve is created, and
also the necessity of a more strict
enforcement of laws for the preven-
ton of scabies, the raising of the
quarantine against Oregon sheep
when shipped out of the state and
other matters of interest relating
to the sheep industry in general.
Another meeting will be held in
Heppner on Saturday, March 10,
when all of the growers who were
not able to attend the last meeting
are invited to come and join the
organization.
The wool growers of the Hep
pper district feel that much can be
gained by organization.
In the district tributary to Hepp-
ner at least 100000 worth of
sheep are owned. There are many
vital questions for the sheep men
to handle and prope: organization
will bring results that can be only
obtained through united effort.
Effective organization and strict
enforcement of the laws in rela-
ton to scabies has almost entirely
eradicated this menace to the
sheep industry in Wyoming. In
the Shan ko county and in Una
tills county there are very few if
any sheep infected with scab and
there is strong likelihood that the
quarantine will be raised q. the
two latter places this year. Such
a condition can only be obtained
through dillgent work and united
effort on the part of every grower.
1t is matter of much importance
and means much to the sheep
industry.
1t is no harder to get rid of
scabies in the Heppner district
than any other of the places above
named. If the sheep men will
work for it they will meet with
SUCCESS.

This is a high compliment for our

TALKED ABOUT INSECT PESTS
PROF. POPENOE GAVE GOOD IN
STRUCTTON TO FARMERS.
was in GOOdIand TO InsPect Nursery
Stock and Found Trees In
Good Condition.

z. A POpenOe, professor Of etOm-
oIOgy OF the state Agricultural college
at Manhattan, Kansas, spoke to
small audience OF farmers and fruit
raisers Wednesday afternoon at the
opera house He gave a highly inter
esting talk. and evidently Is a master
OF the subjects treated and withal Is
a pleasing gentleman to meet. He
is state Inspector Of nursery stock and
after looking over Mr. V. w Good
rich's nursery found it clear Of any
infectious pests
He spoke first on what Is called the
san Jose scale. from san Jose, Calf
MIA where its damaging blight was
first observed in this country, but
which, he said, probably was import
ed from Japan and China The raw
ages Of this insect pest have been very
severe about Dodge City, Kansas, and
whole orchards, both fruit and Orna-
mental trees had been completely
destroyed by the pest He exhibited
twigs Of trees infected and with the
aid OF microscope, showed the form
alton Of the scale and told Of the rem
edy and means OF getting rid OF the
blight. Winter treatment was advised
the trimming back OF the tree and the
thorough spraying Of the branches
and limbs with lime and sulphur
The scale was really an insect pro-
tected under a self-fOrmed scale or
shield under which the insect lived
and sucked the sap Of the tree. Three
years were sufficient to kill the finest
fruit tree. He said that the damage
was wrought by females which brought
brood after brood, and these in turn,
all females brought more brOOds up
into millions. The insect, he said was
parthOgenetic, that is producing with
out the concurrence Of males In the
fall, brOOds were brought forth both
male and female which produced the
stock that laid small black eggs that
produced the scale on trees the next
season Birds was one OF the means
OF spreading the pests, as the insects
thus were transferred from tree TO
tree and from place to place. The
technical name Of this pest is, the
aphis, one Of the family Of the ap-
hidae, the males in the fall being
winged.
Mr.. POpenOe also spoke on the sub
ject Of the lice which affect the grow
ing sprigs Of trees curling up the
leaves and forming a shelter for them
selves, and producing by the millions,
and later in the season becoming
winged for flight Speedy trimming
OF affected twigs was advised. Other
pests, such as grass hOppers, the
Hessian fly and chinch bugs were des-
cFibed and the methods most effective
in their determination Al insects,
he said, had their enemies and their
diseases, and methods were employed
TO propagate their enemies and spread
their diseases
A movement was made at the meet
ing to arrange for a farmers institute
here in the coming fall or early winter,
and the professor said they would
send out good men without cost to
talk on topics pertaining to farm,
stock and dairying and other subjects
