NO WOOL SOLD
At HEPPNER SALE
Growers Refuse Meagre Offers of
Buyers in Initial Sale of Season.
Only Six Offers Made.-PiIot
Rock Sale Successful.

Not a single clip was sold at the
public sale held in this city last Fri
day. Because it was the initial sale
OF the season, the buyers evidently
did not wish to start off by boosting
the market too strong, so they kept
within certain low limits. Local
growers were not at all satisfied with
the prices offered and they refused
to let go, although they were offered
all the way from SO to 56 cents. Only
six clips were put up for sale. A
large part of the wool from this Sec
tion has not yet been removed from
the Sleeps backs.
However, the sale at Pilot Rock,
just following the fiasco here, was
more successful, better prices being
offered all the way around. Three
hundred thousand pounds, or the en-
tire Pilot Rock clip was disposed of
at prices ranging from So to 81 cents.
This practically cleans up all the wool
in that section.

M'bEE SELLS OUT
RANCH FOR 100000
Skinner Creek Sheep and Cattle Man
DispOses of His 1900 Acres to
LaCrande Man.-Goes to
Hot Lake For Health.

l.. E. McBee sold his extensive
holdings in the upper Skinner creek
section this week to La Grande par
ties. The deal is said to have involv-
ed 100000 in cash. Mr.. McBee sold
everything he owned, including the
1900 acres of land and all stock and
equipment. Ray M. Logan of La
Grande made the deal.
Mr.. McBee formerly engaged in
the growing of alfalfa and cattle in
the Cecil country until about two
years ago, when by trade, he &C
quired the Skinner creek property
from C. A. Minor. The deal at that
time involved $4,000, SO Mr.. McBee
has made a clean 100000 In two
years In the land alone, to say moth
ing of the $4,000 worth of wool
which he has not yet sold.
Mr.. McBee has been suffering for
some time from rheumatism and 1t is
probably due to this that he has dis
posed of his holdings here. He left
the first of the week for Hot Lake
sanatorium, where he will take a
course of treatments for the benefit
of his health.

Newton 1856" Some Shooter.

Oscar Borg has bought a new high
power rifle and it is some gun. A
Newton 1856" they call it. Recently
Oscar took out two of his friends,
Prof. Hoffman and C. e. Woodson,
both expert gun men, to show off the
excellent qualities of "256." A good
opportunity presented itself when a
bold coyote came into view not more
than fifty yards distant and present.
ed itself as broadside target for
Mr.. Borg and his new gun. Oscar
took careful aim by resting on the
radiator of the car, but two shots
failed to bring down the coyote, who
romped away as though he had never
been within a thousand miles of
1856"
However another opportunity soon
came in the form of a badger. Six
shots from Oscars new powerful
rife succeeded in mangling the fore
feet of the badger until he could no
longer dig, and in order to put the
animal out of his misery, it was
necessary for Mr.. Woodson to kill
him with a club.
Mr.. Borg's friends are of the opin-
ion that he has a good gun and they
have made all sorts of offers to de-
prive him of it.

JOY SEEKERS TAKE
MOUNTAIN TRIP

A crowd of Joy seekers hired the
carry-all motor bus driven by Lee
Cantwell on Thursday last for trip
to the mountains Those making the
trip were Miss Case, sister of M. L..
Case of this city, who has been visit
iting at the Case home, Mary Case,
Miss Janet Noyes, Miss Ager, Miss
Neva Chidsey, Masters Neil, Ariel and
Bruce Macdonald, Mrs Katie Wa
ters, Mrs. Henry Vance, Mrs. E. D..
Brown, Miss Anna Forbes, Delmar
Waters, Gladys Brown, Loville Lu-
cas-, Mrs. N. e. Winnard, Mrs. T. b.
Macdonald, Elizabeth Phelps, Char
lotte Winnard and Turner MacDon-
ald with Mr.. Cantwell as driver. The
weather and scenery at this time of
the year is glorious. Its worth the
trip just to climb the hill at the
right of the forks and view the gor-
geous wild flower garden on its
slopes. AS fishing trip it was not
successful, Mrs. Waters being the
only lucky angler, but as recrea-
tion the crowd recommend this fun
and also recommend Mr.. Cantwell
as a careful overseer of such an ex-
pedition.

DIR. WINNARD WRITES
FROM WINDY CITY

y Chicago, ILL.,, June IA, 1917.
Dear Editor:
We are once more in the Windy
City but for once the weather is
fine. When my last letter was writ
ten DR.. Chick and the writer were en-
joying the greatest medical meeting
it has ever been our privilege to at
tend. There were present six or
seven thousand medical men and wo-
men from all parts Of the United
States. The papers read and the dis
cussions of the papers were intense
ly interesting and instructive. Many
OF the subjects were illustrated by
the use of slides. They were used in
connection with the paper read by DR..
Sherman of Pittsburg, Pa, in ex-
planning the new treatment of infect
ed wounds and burns.
DR.. Sherman has spent six months
in the hospitals of France and has
fully mastered the technique of the
new treatment. Some prominent
physicians have discredited the treat
ment, but it is either from jealousy
or ignorance. The pictures showed
many cases of the soldiers so badly
mangled that death or loss of limbs

LOCAL AUTO HAS SER
IOUS TIME ON HIGHWAY

Andy Rood's Buick roadster met
with a serious accident on the Col
umbia Highway last week, while Mr..
Rood and party of friends were en-
route to Portland. The accident oc-
Cured near Mitchells point on one
of the most dangerous turns of the
road. Mr.. Rood was driving at q
lively rate and did not negotiate the
turn. The car plunged off the high
way into fence and those who were
there say it was nothing short Of q
miracle that the car and its occu-
pants were not hurled to death in the
valley some 400 feet below. Mr..
Rood had the car taken into Portland
for repairs. The others in the car
at the time were Mrs. George Hendry
and her sister, Miss Muriel Cason
of this city.

BrOOks-WOOley.

A quiet little wedding took place
at the home of the Christian minis
ter, Tuesday evening at o'clock,
Turner B. Macdonald officiating.
The bride was Miss Vena Wooley,
beloved by her many friends for her
sweetness of character and disposi-
ton. The groom was Mr.. William
Brooks, a we'll respected young man
of the community. Only the most
intimate friends were present at the
ceremony, but the we'll wishes of
many others follow these young peo-
pie to their new home, which for the
present will be at Slocums mill. Both
are Christians of pleasing disposi-
tion and are industrious. We be-
speak for them a very happy future.

GRAIN EXPERIMENTS
WILL PROVE Of VALUE

o. A. c. Experiment Station, Cor
Wallis, June 21.-A new bulletin
dealing with important farming ques-
tions in Eastern and Central Oregon,
has just been written by D. E, Steph-
ems, superintendent of the branch
station at Moro, and C. e. Hill, sci
entihc assistant, and issued by the
o. A. C. Station at Corvallis. The
bulletin records results of expert
ments to determine the best crop va
rieties, improvement Of crops, the
most profitable crop rotations for the
Eastern Oregon dry uplands, and the
best methods of cultivation for pro-
ducing wheat under the summer-fal-
low system.
The experiments were under way
for several years, but for the last two
years much more work than formerly
could be done by cooperation of the
officers of the O. A. c. Station and of
the U. s. Offices of crop and cereal
investigations lent. Valuable data
was assembled on climatic conditions,
winter and spring wheats, barley,
oats, emmer and spelt, acre-value of
crops, field peas, alfalfa, sweet clover,
vetch, grasses, corn and potatoes, till
age practices, crop rotations, and
trials by farmers. Each of these sub
jects is considered in detail in the
main text and also recapitulated in
summary. The bulletin consists of
4S pages with numerous tables and
illustrations.
Moisture Investigations showed
that from a free water surface as
much water will be evaporated in the
single month of July as falls during
the entire year. The control inves-
LEGATIONS proved that the precipita-
ton is adequate to the production of
excellent crops when proper systems
of farming are followed.
Copies of the bulletin are free on
request. Address the request to
Oregon Agricultural College, Corval-
lis, Oregon.
