The Peoples Cash Market is under
going extensive repairs this week.
Mr.. Schwarz, the proprietor, is de-
termined to have his market in first
class sanitary condition. New paint,
new paper and new fixtures are being
placed to bring this about, and the
renovation is going on from front to
back Not the least of the attractions
of the shop, however, is the fair pri-
ces charged for the choicest cuts of
meat, and all other produce handled
On the basis of a small margin of
profit. Visit this market and see how
nice Mr.. Schwarz is fixed up. He will
be glad to show you through clean
ly and sanitary institution. Adv.
Andy Rood filed suit against King
& Nagle the latter part of the week
to replevin his American automobile
that had been in the shop for the
past ten weeks undergoing repairs.
Mr.. Rood claims that the repair men
were to put his car in good shape for
certain sum, and after it had been
there this unreasonable length of
time and they had been unable to
make 1t run, he desired to remove it.
Whereupon he was asked to pay
three times the sum agreed upon and
the suit followed. The machine is
now in the hands of the sheriff
awaiting the outcome Of the suit.
A good many Heppner citizens
seem to be slow in complying with
the orders of the Mayor to muzzle
their dogs. The request is reason
able one and there should be none to
pass it up unheeded. There are
many varieties of dogs in this COM
munity-some good, some bad and
some Indifferent. but they all come
under the same classification when it
comes to rabies, and they all come
under the same heading when a reg
ulation is made by the city authorit-
les. Put on the muzzle before the
marshal takes your pet in hand and |
administers unto it worse fate.
A trip to the foothills in the vicin-
ity of Black Butte Sunday revealed |
to us lot of good grain that has
apparently survived the heat blight |
that visited the lower section of the |
country. Up that way none of the
grain appears to be hurt in the least, |
and there are some excellent fields
of wheat and barley. Garuens are
looking fine and so far have escaped |
any injury from the grasshoppers
tho this pest is pretty thick in places.
They seem to be on the move now and |
may leave that part of the county be-
fore doing and serious damage.
Pat Currin, who was severely in
jured several weeks ago by being
thrown from load of wool near Lex
ington, and who has been confined in
the hospital at Heppner ever since,
was taken to Portland yesterday and
will be placed under treatment there
at St. Vincent's hospital. He received
very severe injuries to his back and
it is feared that they may yet prove
fatal.
O. j. Cox, accompanied by his
daughter, Miss Gladys, were in Hepp
ner on Tuesday. Mr.. Cox now has his
family located in the mountains in
the vicinity of Parkers Mill, where
they will spend the heated term. He
came to town to get his injured hand
attended to as it does not seem to be
properly healing and is giving him
no small amount of trouble.
A Sunday school was organized last
Sunday afternoon in the Matteson
district, starting off with an attend
ance of twenty-three, besides several
visitors. Mrs. Geo. Moore was chosen
as superintendent, Miss Pifer, secre-
tary and Miss Brown, treasurer. The
school will meet regularly each Sun
day afternoon at 2 and a large at
tendance is expected.
Waldo Vincent, who was in town
Friday, says that he is in the midst
of hay harvest. Grasshoppers are
bad at his place and threaten to take
all his garden, job they are able
to perform in very short order when
they get down OF business. There
was some indication, however, that
the pest would move in to greener
pastures.
I. c. Large was over from Monu-
ment Friday to receive a car load of
bucks, Cotswolds and Rambouletts
Just arrived from the Willamette
Valley. He started out with them
that night, intending to drive nights
and rest during the heat of the day.
The animals were in prime condition
and very fat.
