Ny experience in grapes this year
of big crops shows that a vine that
has set more fruit than it's capacity
admits can be assisted by liberal feed

usually manifests itself in uneven

bunch being ripe and part green at the
same time.
Strange it is that some kinds man

ripen their fruit, while others, like
the Worden, are so disposed to I'M
evenness that their value is seriously
impaired. This year pruned the
Worden to a fourth or third less
wood than 1 did the Concord, but I
could see no difference. Another year

wood. shall also refuse to plant any
thing in the middles at all. reserving
them exclusively for the grapes and
continuing cultivation right up to the
time the fruit ripens.
In sacking grapes attention should
be paid to the quality of the paper

three qualities, only one kind being Of
strength proper for the work. The
others were so flimsy that they soon
wore into holes. If you cannot In

and they cost Is cents per 100. While
would not advise their use in all cases
for market grapes unless the birds be
very destructive, should strongly rec

for home use. Such grapes can be pre-
served in the greatest perfection for
from one to two months after ripen-

will keep we'll in a sack. One of the
poorest keepers is Moore's Early, the

On the markets. Its skin is tender and
cracks easily and the sacked buch
quickly goes to pieces. Most of the
other standards keep fairly well enough
to richly repay the trouble, while there
are certain kinds that are extra good

AS to very general and wide adap-

The grape is beset with insect pests
and diseases, as well as all other fruit

The newest turban is a dangerous
thing to womans good looks if her hair
be not correctly arranged. Indeed, In
this age, when details are considered
as important as the whole, you can no
more adjust a hat without arranging
your hair for that especial style if
millinery than you would think of dis
regarding the gown with which you
wear it.
The new turbans are not small. They
extend quite far out at the back and
they require a soft fluffy arrangement
of hair, which will continue the line
face or neck. They are not unreason
able in their demand for any special
arrangement of the hair, so that with
a little attention either a parted or
pompadour style is good-looking
The cable coronet is one lovely way
to secure fluffy height. Two large
strands are wound over each other and
the rope of hair is passed around the
head, as the coronet braid is worn.
1t allows soft waves to peep out from
below and supplies a support for the
turban.

used with success The hair is parted

but officials of the company say bust

proved powerful factor in regulating

Matlock has six indictments for vi
olating the local option law, and one
for gambling. Rea and Matlock a
month ago sold out and left. Their
whereabouts at present is unknown,
but it is likely that will be brought to
trial next term Of court.
Circuit Judge Bean called court
Monday morning and since that time
the grand jury has done nothing but
grind and return indictments. The
greater percentage Of the crimes
against the state have been for vio-
lating the local option law and to
those channels of crime Sheriff Shut
has given his time and energy for
the past six months. The sheriff sent
to Portland and hired Fred Robin
and Tom Thorsen, detectives, who
came into Heppner and turned the
tricks which have brought grief to
the transgressors.
The detectives came to Heppner
about two weeks ago and busted
themselves in the purchasing of land
or stated to Moses Ashbaugh, a local
real estate dealer, that they were de-
sirous Of purchasing timber or wheat
lands. Ashbaugh trotted them
around the country and when the fell
lows wanted to get a little nip Ash
baugh, it is said, gave them the steer
where they might get the liquor, and
even went farther, and asked that the
liquor be given them 0as a courtesy
to him.
