found such a good position.
Some of our citizens were out view
ing the wheat fields last week and
report some of the best wheat that

are all looking forNard to a bumper
crop this year. And that glorious
rain what do you know about that?
The ball game played at lone last
Saturday between lone and. Heppner
was a red hot game while it lasted
the score being one and one. Owing
to the late start the boys got, there

in the near future. Those kind of
games make the rubber necks hold
their breath and one can enjoy them
without getting a new set of ear
drums at the beginning Of every in
ming.
