ty who has been here for several
days. Mr.. Sullivan is quite interest
ed in this section and contemplates
locating here with his family provid-
ing he can get hold of a suitable
piece of property. We found him to
be man that is well informed along
the lines of dairying and diversified
farming. Mr.. Sullivan has engaged
quite extensively in dairyng for a
number of years and knows that it is
good thing for the farmer, and he
highly endorses the plan of putting
UP butter factory and cold storage
plant at Heppner; it would be a
splendid proposition for our farming
community, properly conducted. Fur
thermore, Mr.. Sullivan strongly ad-
vocates the silo and the handling OF
the very best grades of dairy stock.
The editor and several members
of his family spent Saturday and
Sunday at the "Turnford" camp near
the foot of Black mountain. Messrs.
Frank and Jess Turner and O. G.
and Neil Crawford are busily engaged
in getting out wood and poles in that
vicinity, and the family of o. G.
Crawford is keeping house" for
them and enjoying an outing in the
| timber as we'll. Mrs. Frank Turner
and children joined the crowd Sun
day, and Mr.. Spencer Crawford and
Miss Lera Citizens came along up Sat
urday evening to be in time to help
the hungry bunch devour all the grub
there was in camp. 1t is simply as
tonishing what capacity people de-
velop for storing away the eats when
they reach the timber belt. 1t is
very pleasant in the mountains now
and we are sorry to have to return
to the heat and grind of the city.
Harry Morgan departed for Mos
COW, Idaho, Saturday and expects to
make that place his home in the fu-
ture. For the present he has Sc
cured work in the Farmers Ware
house there with his brother, Andrew
Morgan, who has charge of the insti-
tuition. Before leaving, Harry got
right with himself by leaving a de-
post with the editor of this family
journal, which tho it shineth only as
the lesser of the great luminaries of
the universe, must be had by those
desiring to get the local happenings
of this part of the moral vineyard.
We wish Harry all kinds of success.
