WHEAT REACHES A
HIGH FIGURE HERE
Farmers Who Held, Sold For 81.
Frank Anderson Garners $22,.
500 From $40 Acres of
925 Land.

Wheat reached the record high
price In Heppner Monday when
Frank Anderson Of Jack Rabbit Can
yon sold 1880 bushels to the North
ern Grain & Warehouse Co., of Port
land for $500 per bushel. The deal
was made through Spencer Akers,
the local agent of the company.
Mr.. Akers also bought in several
small lots, remnants they might be
called, for farmers are finding an ex-
cellent market for those few sacks Of
seed wheat which they happened to
have left over.
Mr.. Anderson's check for his 1915
wheat crop amounted to $22,500 and
represented return of $4S.5O per
acre, as the 11,250 bushels were
raised on $40 acres. Besides this,
Mr.. Anderson also got his seed and
feed. His 1916 crop also included
$1,000 worth of barley. The land
which Mr.. Anderson farms is valued
at $25 per acre. His farm totals
114O acres and half of 1t is in crop
each year.
The name of Frank Anderson has
become synonym for good farming
in this county and his scientific meth
ods have always rewarded him with
bumper crops. Not only is his place
one of the best farmed in Eastern
Oregon, but 1t is one of the best i'm
proved,

HORSE BREEDERS
BUY FINE ANIMALS
Thousands of Dollars Are Spent BY
Local Farmers to Improve Stock.
Horses Are All Percheron.

During the past week the horse
market in Heppner has been a lively
one and A. c. Ruby & Co., the pion-
eer importers of pure bred stations
have sold five of their Percheron stall
lions to farmers in the vicinity of this
city. Those who have purchased are
Roy Stamp, Sherman Wakefield and
Walter Rood Of Heppner, Rugg Bro
thers of Rhea creek and Phil Doher-
ty Of Lexington.
The sales we're all made by Carl
Smith Of Arlington, who is the field
agent in this territory for Ruby & Co.
Mr.. Smith has also been buying
horses extensively during the past
thirty months for war purposes.
Knowing the kind of horses previous
ly used here to large extent for
breeding purposes, Mr.. Smith made
but two trips here in that time for
the horses were not of large enough
bone. He predicts that in six years
time Morrow county will not be beat
anywhere for horses for he is of the
opinion that the brood mares are
here in quantity and of high quality.
The prices paid for these stations
ranged from $500 to $2500.

HOW WOMEN MAY HELP
WIN THE WORLD WAR
Some Ways Pointed Out by Mrs. Clara
H. Waldo, Member o. A. C.
Board Of Regents.

0. A. c., Corvallis Ore, April IL
Sharing In the toll of the fields, sac
rificing all individual tastes that in
terfere with bountiful production of
food supplies, practicing rigid econ
orny. and avoiding neighborhood sus-
picion, are some Of the ways In which
women can help win the big war, as
pointed ost by Mrs. Clara Waldo, the
woman member Of the Oregon Agri-
cultural College Board of Regents In
speaking to the women students.
"Women's help is better in time of
stress than at any other time" said
she, "for II is then that their intui-
tioa comes incomes straight from
the spirit. You are to be joint tillers
OF the soil In war time. You can help
in the food and labor shortage by
writing to the home folk what are
the best crops to grow. Plenty of
beans. potatoes and carrots for win
ter use will cut down the home living
cost and release much other food ma
terial for other use.
Grow Belgian hares. They are .
good cheap food and can be grown on
the clover cuttlngs from the parks
and lawns.
"Canneries and homes that are
going to depend on tins might begin
to evaporate surplus fruits and veget-
ables when possible because there is
going to be = great shortage Of tins.
Doubtless many canneries will be un-
able to run during the summer
months. $50

, COMMUNICATION.
To the Editor:

To the Editor:
Many questions have been asked
recently In regard to matters arising
out of the conditions which necessar-
lily prevail on account of the state of
war which exists. People must bear
in mind that many things which are
permissible in a time of peace are
not permissible in time of war. It
is the policy of both the National and
State Governments to cause as little
inconvenience to citizens and others
as is consistent with the proper pro-
lection of the rights and dignity Of
the country.
Citizens are urged to refrain from
talk and actions which are calculated
to stir up trouble with foreigners who
may be within our borders or with
our citizens of foreign birth. If any
citizen comes into possession of any
knowledge or rumor of any acts or
talk inimical to the interests of the
country. he should not peddle the
same about, but should communicate
1t to some peace officer, who will take
such steps as are necessary in the
premises. If this policy is pursued.
foreigners and foreign born citizens
will be saved humiliation and much
i'll feeling will be avoided. Those
who sympathize with the countries
with which the United States is at
war are admonished to follow the
rule laid down by the Attorney Gen.
eral of the United States, "Obey the
law, and keep your mouth shut" If
this plan is followed no inconven-
ience will be experienced.
People should inform themselves
in regard to the law touching the
desecration of the flag. This is not
time for any foolishness in this line.
Strangers need not be surprised IL
they find themselves the objects of
observation. And strangers in the
who do not appear to have
any employment need not be sur
prised if they are held to answer to
a charge of vagrancy. 1t is a poor
time for loafers anyway, and loafers
who are not known and who can not
be vouched for had better seek en-
ployment or keep moving. Careful
instructions touching this matter are
being prepared by the Federal and
State authorities, and all officers will
be fully informed within a short time.
Respectfully,
S. E. NOTSON.
District Attorney.

Otherwise, they would not be efficient
They always show themselves efficient "at a pinch
They are feeling the pinch They feel that with about
