PENDLETON MAY Bring
SPECIAL TRAIN TO FAIR

While in Pendleton last week, W..
". Smead put up the proposition to
the Pendleton people to bring spec
al train to the Fourth Annual Nor
row County Fair The suggestion
was met with fayorably and this will
in all likelihood be done. The
Roundup City came over in full
force at the time of the 1914 fair
The same week, their businessmen
sent a special train to Spokane. This
year they are planning special trip

in time to start for Heppner. 1t has
been suggested that the same equip
ment could be used for both trips.

RAISES SIXTY POTA-
TOES TO THE HILL

Andy j. Cook believes he has the
record for potato production from one
hill. One hill of his potato patch pro-
duced sixty spuds and they are all of
fair size. The remarkable part Of
the thing is the fact that all the po-
tatoes came from just one seed. The
piece of potato which Mr.. Cook plant
ed for seed, did not decay, but is as
firm and smooth now as it was the
day it was planted.
The potatoes are of late variety
and introduced into this country from
Yakima. Mr.. Cook states he will
have more potatoes this year than he
will know what to do with.
He will have the sixty potatoes tax
en- from one hill on display at the
Morrow County Fair. Later he viii
, use them for seed.

WORK FOR GOOD ROADS.

When it takes four horses to pull
an empty wagon to town and wheat
is going up in price each day; when
the mail carrier gives up in despair,
and the children cannot get to school,
the farmer cannot help wondering
how much this condition is costing
him each day.
Figure as he may, he cannot get
away from the fact that good roads
are indispensable to agricultural pros
perity.
The city dweller is alike concerned
The farm on a good road has scores
of possibilities for the development OF
it's resources to everyone open to the
farm on poor road. Increased prof
it's mean increased expenditures
greater buying powers.
In the early days of poverty many
county bonded itself for hundreds
of thousands of dollars to secure rail
roads and to promote agricultural de
velopment. Three-fourth OF all thu
freight the railroad haul must soon
er or later move over the public high
ways, and every ton so moved is cost
ing at an average rate of 29 cents pc
mile.

DESERVES SUPPORT

The Oregon State Editorial asso-
citation deserves the absolute loyalty
of every editor and publisher in Ore
gon and the fullest measure of coop
Grafton, said G. Lansing Hurd, OF the
q. A. G.. Extension, in recent ad-
dress. 1t is the greatest opportunity
for the upbuilding of the industry
from a commercial standpoint and in
crease of the dignity and effectiveness
of the newspaper business we have
ever had,
We must be presistently loyal to
this institution of mutual helpfulness
and the protection of each other and
the protection of the capital invested
in the business.
Under the magnificent leadership
of President Brodie and Secretary
Bates who have given so patriotically
and unselfshly of their time and ef-
fort, the newspaper business of Ore
gon has been helped in many ways.
Newspapers are more prosperous and
influential than ever before; newspa-
per men are more contented with
their lot and have a greater self re-
spect.
Local. district, or sectional organl'
zations must be encouraged; fol
through these, the editors may ge
into frequent touch with each othe1
and compare notes. When one news
paper has made a remarkable or note
worthy success along the line of com
munity btterment, or affecting 1T
own particular business, its method
may be studied in editorial gathering
and when the editors return to thel
homes they can make apphcatioh

from their neighbor's experience, s
as to make their own efforts NOR

SECOND hRTES|AA
FLOW IS STRUCK
Newton Has Another Big Weli.-Far-
mer Smith Heads New Company
For Development OF Model
Diversified Farm.

The second artesian we'll in Nor
row county has been struck. w. ID.
Newton is the man who accomplished
this feat a second time and the new
we'll, which is in the same belt as the
first one, is producing much larger
flow of water. The new we'll appar-
emily has not diminished the flow OF
water in the first gusher in the least.
In October, 1915, on the R. B. Rice
farm in the Strawberry section, the
discovery or opening up OF the first
artesian we'll in Morrow county was
celebrated. However, Mr.. Newton
was not satisfied with the flow of wa
| ter and at once set about drilling an
other we'll His efforts have been re-
warded with this latest success.
Mr.. and Mrs. Newton recently pur-
chased the Rice farm and in collab-
oration with Farmer Smith, the
veteran agriculturist of the Oregon
Washington Railroad & Navigation
Co., will operate two model diversl-
| fed farms. They have already placed
their order for two 100-ton silos, the
first progressive step in working out
their plans. Farmer" Smith de-
clares he wouldn't be on farm with
out silo.
Considerable demonstration work
has been carried on by Mr.. Smith the
past few months on the Millet ranch.
Newlons upper farm. Corn and field
peas, bald barley spring sown, and
wheat are evidence of what can be
done with these crops on dry hills un-
der proper cultivation.
Continued opening up of artesian
wells in that vicinity will serve as
great impetus to the agricultural de-
velopment of the country there. un-
der a ditch are several hundred acres
subject to irrigation.

ing Fourth Annual Eyent Best
i'm History.

now actively engaged in making the
fourth annual event the greatest in
the history of the institution. Since
it's Inauguration, the Board has look
ed forward to the time when the

would not care to bring in their
stock. Barns are now being con-
structed for this purpose. They are
arranged for the greatest convenience

Fair crowds. In the horse barns are
28 stalls. These are all box stalls

nlans to conserve every available foot
of space and in this they have sue
ceeded. Secretary Smead is of the
opinion that the stock erhibits vii
be more complete this year than al
any previous Fair.
The amusement features are now
all signed up. Ali Zada, who has no
missed single Fair since the frs
Il one four years ago, will be on hant
. with his Punch and Judy show fol
