CREAMERY DIRECT.
0RS ARE ELECTED
Heppner's New Industry Will Open
For Business May 1st.-2OO
Pounds Butter Per Day to
Start With.

The Morrow County Creamery
stockholders held their first meeting
in Heppner last Saturday afternoon.
The directors were elected and other
business pertinent to the opening up
OF this new industry, was transacted.
The directors are Frank Winnard, w.
A. Wilcox, ]. F. Vaughn, Chas. Thom-
son and M. d. Clark. Ira M. Morgan,
organizer of the company, has been
retained as butter maker and general
manager
The creamery will open for busi-
ness on May 1st, according to the
plans of Mr.. Morgan, who is now bus
lily engaged in laying concrete floors
for the plant and installing the
creamery machinery. Some of the
machinery has not yet arrived, but
will be here in time to be put in by
the day set for opening. Mr.. Morgan
states that the plant will manufac-
ture 200 pounds of butter each day
to begin with and will be gradually
increased as the business is develop
ed. He believes that the territory
here is capable of eventually support
ing one of the best creameries in the
state, and wishes to assure all pa
irons that the quality of butter will
be as good as the best and there will
be no reason for buying butter made
at outside points.
The plant will be located in, the
Wells building on Willow street, just
back of the new Masonic building.
The location is considered good one
inasmuch as there is an alley at the
rear which gives ample approach to
the building.

Superintendent. In doing this have
no selfish or personal motives. do
it in the interest Of better schools.
Mrs. Shurte has taught in the Hepp-
ner schools the last two years and l
have had an opportunity to judge of
her work as perhaps no other person
in the county has had. have seldom
met better teacher. She is an ex-
cellent instructor, is thoroughly mod
ern In all her methods, an enthusiast
in industrial work-just what our
rural schools need-and last but not
least, she has exceptional power in
organizing teachers and inspiring
them in their work. When 1t is re-
called that the majority Of the rural
teachers of this county are usually
inexperienced young women or girls
Just graduated from high school, 1t
will he seen how invaluable to them
will be the counsel and Judgment of
woman Of Mrs. Shurte's tempera-
ment and experience.
I feel that am doing only a pub

tendent.
Respectfully yours,

Oregon Flag Law.

Through the courtesy of Rawlins
Relief Corps No. 23, of this city, we
are printing herewith a section of
our Oregon laws pertaining to our
national flag. The law is as follows.

son who in any manner, for exhibi-
tion or display, shall place of cause

not marry him, Mrs. Horace Fairfax
and Harold Hale, a rich man who
had travelled in Europe during the
war, entered. Then followed Alice's
rejection of Gordon and acceptance
of Hale, and the suicide of Gordon
in rapid succession. Altha Devin in
the part of Mrs. Fairfax and Norton
Winnard as Harold Hale, acted their
parts naturally and successfully.
The noise of the shot when Gordon
committed suicide awoke Virginia,
and Robert Ashton, her nearly-re-
iected lover, Carl Gordon) arrived
in time to quiet her fears and at the
same time receive her promise to
marry him.
The play was very pleasingly exc
cuted and the school is to be congrat-
ulated on possessing such high dra-
matte talent, and able directors.
The concluding number was
violin and piano duet by Cornelia
Johnson and Loa Briggs.
The proceeds of the entertainment
which amounted to $37, will go a
long way toward relieving the athle-
tic association of its financial difficult
ties.

WHAT IS TRANSFERRING IN lone, THE EGG CITY

E. M. Shut this week disposed of
26 head, a car load, of his Holstein
milk stock, to j. H. Mckinley, of
Council, Idaho. Mr.. Mckinley has
arranged to ship the stock on Friday.
He is an experienced man in the cat
tie busines, having engaged in this
quite extensively in Western Nebras-
ka in years past. The bunch he has
purchased from Mr.. Shut will be
added to what he purchased of the
same breed few weeks ago in the
Yakima country, and Mr.. Mckinley
expects to enter into the dairy bus
mess on an extensive scale. This
will bring some relief to Mr.. Shut
who has been very closely confined to
the home ranch since getting so much
dairy stock on hand, and he will now
be able to move out once in while
and take some recreation. The Shut
ranch receives much praise at the
hands of Mr.. Mckinley, who finds ev-
erything about the place kept up in
the very best style and all stables and
barns in a very clean and sanitary
condition.
There has been some slight freez-
ing in this locality during the past
week, and the weather has been
pretty "raw." All reports, however,
are to the effect that so far no in
jury has been done the prospective
fruit crop. If nothing happens, the
lone country will turn out a very
abundant crop of fruit this season.
Trees are now fairly burdened with
blossoms and many of the earlier va
rieties are now showing fruit of the
size of marbles. The prospects for
apricots, plums and peaches are very
fiattering.
Mrs. ]. M. Morris and children de-
parted this week for Spokane, Wn,
where it is supposed she will join her
husband. 1t will be remembered that
Morris left here rather suddenly last
fall, not leaving his future address,
but on the other hand leaving numer-
Gus unpaid bills and accounts, and de-
serting his wife and family Of small
children. Here is hoping that he may
fully repent of the error of his ways,
and remember those here who stood
by him in his time of need.

FINAL DAY F|NDSl4
CANDIDATES IN RACE
Twelve Republicans and Two Demo-
Gratis in Morrow County Have Filed
For Primary Electi0n.-Three
Come Out This Week.

The final day for filing for the pri-
mary election found IA candidates
in the race, three of these coming out
just the past few days. Those filing
this week were G. A. Bleakman of
Hardman and E. L. Padberg, of lone,
both republicans for commissioner
and jeff Jones, democrat of Heppner
for sheriff. The past few weeks has
also seen big increase in registra-
tion and by the time all precincts
have been heard from 1t is likely the
total number of registered voters will
be in the neighborhood Of 1900. The
present estimate is that 1900 of these
will be republicans. the greater part
of the remainder democrats, with on
ly one progressive in the entire coun-
ty registered.
Twelve of the IA avowed candi-
dates are republicans and it is in the
ranks of the G. O. P. that any contest
will be waged between candidates for
the same office. For county clerk, j.
A. Waters, present incumbent, and
Fred Tash, both Of Heppner, are
seeking the nomination. However,
the county treasurer's Office Is the
scene of the greatest rivalry, there
being three strong men on the repub-
lican tickt after this position. Their
announcements were forthcoming ST.
multaneously. They are Oscar Borg,
j. l.. wilkins and T. j. Humphreys.
On the democratic ticket, Hanson
Hughes is assured of the nomination
since he has no opposition. For coun-
ty commissioner, Il. L. Padberg OF
lone, present incumbent, will have
opposition for the nomination in
George Bleakman, of Hardman. Mrs.
c. w. Shurte of Heppner and Herbert
w. Copeland of Reith, Ore, are both
after the superintendency OF schools.
S. Z. Notson for district attorney and
M. l.. Case for coroner, as well as
George McDuffee for sheriff, will
meet with no opposition for these re-
spective Offices at the primary cleo
tion.

MAN DISAPPEARS IN DECEM.
BER.-NOT BEEN HEARD OF
SINCE.-MAY HAVE PERISHED


Rube Gaunt left Parkers Mill on
the 18th of last December bound for
the Allen place between Ditch and
Wall creeks. No trace of the man
has been found since his leaving the
mill.
Searching parties headed by Mr..
Gaunt's son Bernie have failed to re-
veal his whereabouts, and since he
started over the mountains during
one of the most severe storms of the
winter, it is feared that he may have
become lost and perished in some OBJ
scure place. Mr.. Gaunt is an elderly
man and has spent many years in
the mountains where it is feared he
has been lost. In the past he kept

FARMERS SHOULD D.
vERS|FY SAYS SMITH

That many of the farmers of Nor
row county have wheat on the brain,
is the belief of Farmer Smith, agri-
culturist for the Oregon Washington
Railroad e Navigation Company.
Farmer Smith has been devoting sew
eral days of his time to some of the
lighter farm lands in the northern
part of the county and he is conf
dent that if cultivated properly, corn
may be raised on those lands in suf-
ficient quantity, and quality to make
it better paying proposition than
raising wheat.
The farmer here shows poor judg-
ment in Mr. Smiths opinion when he
does not have sufficient feed to pull
his stock through the winter in good
condition. According to Mr.. Smith,
there is no better feed OF be had than
corn, and he is striving to teach our
farmers the value of growing this
cereal. Many of the farmers north of
the Base Line have been Supplied
with seed corn and they will try this
new crop this year.
A little more diversifcation is in
order. The veteran agriculturist be-
lieves that this section has gone too
much toward wheat and that better
results are bound to follow with the
diversified system.
Farmer Smith at the present time
is conducting some practical expert
ment work at the w. D. Newton
farm. Most of the corn will be sowed
on land under irrigation.

ROAD men DISCUSS
. HOG HOLLOW HIGHWAY

The county courts of Umatilla and
Morrow counties met on the boun-
dairy line of the two counties on We'd
nesday afternoon and discussed at
length the proposed change in the
Hog Hollow road. They were ac-
companied on their trip by many
other citizens of the two counties
and about fifty people were present
at the meeting.
The plan as discussed, is to chang sc
the road out of Hog follow just
above Vinson and proceed up another
canyon which will afford a much bet
ter grade. The new road will go al
most entirely through the lands be-
longing to Pat Doherty. 1t is esti-
mated that the proposed change
would cost Morrow county about
$1,000, most of this expense being fol
cost incurred for fencing and right
laf-Nay. Very little Of the new road
1 is IN umatllia county.
Speeches were made by many OF
those present, chief among which
were the members of the two courts
billiard French, F. w. Vincent and
r. j. Mahoney. Those who were pres
ent from Heppner were G. G. Patter-
son, county judge, George j. Currin
and E. l.. Padberg, county commiss-
toner's, T. j. Mahoney, M. D. Clark, J
L. wilkins, Ed Kellogg and J. S
Whitbeck. 1t was voted unanimous
ly at the meeting to begin work on
the new road in twenty days. George
Currin will return in a few days tc
look over the land and get data as tC
costs for the right of way.

Mrs. G. H. Morris of North Yakima,
Wash. She became alarmed after
failing to receive any replies to her
letters. Mrs. Morris came to Hepp-
ner recently to find some trace of her
brother but returned home after
hearing the reports of the searching
parties.
Hope is still held out that Mr..
Gaunt changed his mind after leav-
ing Parkers Mill, going somewhere
else and that he will notify his rela-
tives soon. A substantial reward is
being offered for any information
that will lead to the recovery of the
missing man. Information should be
addressed to John Gaunt, Heppner.
