A trip around town will convince
you that Heppner citizens have
been struck with the cleanup
spirit in real earnest. The trim
ming of trees, cleaning of yards,
repairing of fences and sidewalks
and the painting of houses is the
order, and many are getting their
gardens planted and are putting
out trees and shrubbery, and the
work of Identifying goes on apace.
The putting in of gardens al this
early date may be little prema-
ture, but this fine warm sunshine
makes it hard to resist, and early
spring garden "sass" is already
showing above the surface of the
ground. A few more weeks of
the present sort of weather and
some of our citizens will be eating
new lettuce, radishes and onions.
Such is our Oregon climate.
