Bertha Blancett, premier woman
broncho buster of the world, paid
Heppner a visit last week. Mrs.
Blancett was returning to Pendleton
after making trip to Hood River to
extend to Rev. Billy Sunday an invi-
tation to attend the 1917 Roundup
at Pendleton.
Mrs. Blancett was to get horse
at Hood River and ride out to the
Sunday farm in her riding habit,
consisting of pair Of heavy boots, a
corduroy skirt, silk waist and heavy
cowboy hat. But bronchos are not
as plentiful in Hood River as they are
on the Eastern Oregon ranges and
after searching the town she finally
secured a saddle horse at one of the
garages. She says Mr.. and Mrs. Sum
day extended her warm welcome
and declined her invitation only be-
cause previous engagement conflict
ed with the date.
While in Heppner Mrs. Blancett
distributed large amount Of adver-
tising matter. Before leaving for
Pendleton she assured us that the
coming show wohld be the biggest in
the history Of RoundUps and also an
nounced that she would be a strong
contender in all events for women
this year.

District Attorney s. E. Notson
spent Monday at Hardman where he
delivered Labor Day address before
the school of that place. School open
ed there on that day with fairly
good attendance and the work for the
year promises we'll under the guild
ance of Principal Pehr. A Labor
Day address at the opening of the
school is a rather novel thing in this
section, but an eminently proper pro-
ceeding, and the exercises at Hard
man on Monday were greatly enjoyed
by all.

5EAUTIFYlNG THE HOME

.sak.xC C. McNabb, in Flowers of Ari- 's2zbfia,s has the following interesting story with regard to home beautifica- tion
 Tt matters not whether we have in mind a great park or small city. a large estate, or modest door yard. we must go about our work in an artistic spirit if we want a good result. Two trees and six shrubs, a scrap of lawn and dozen Towering plants may form either beautiful little picture or a huddled disarray of forms and colors
 Good taste in gardening will yield it's possessor as much pleasure as god taste in architecture, literature or music, and just as one may cultivate good taste in literature without de- signing to become a literateur, so one may properly educate his taste for landscape gardening with the expecta- ton of becoming a landscape gardener.
 "Gardening art offers this advantage to its lovers; that they can everywhere enjoy 1t, and that with comparatively small expense they can patronize it on their own account; the poor washer woman even being quite able to have a pretty bed of Marigold and Phloxes in her yard. The opportunities to cul- tivate taste for landscape art lie all about us. and it is to be hoped that each and everyone of use will in some manner add artistic design to our al- ready natural landscape"

FARM LOAN LAW

The Farm Loan Act provides for twelve farm loan banks in different sections of the country. The farm loan bank for this district is in Cali fornia. Farm loan associations com posed of at least ten prospective bor- rowers for each association are the local institutions for putting the farm loan act into effect.
 Only those who are bona -fide farm CTS, or who expect to purchase farms are eligible to take advantage of the provisions of the law. Land owners only who are cultivating their land are eligible to take advantage of the act. A sum of money up to 50 per cent of the assessed valuation of the land and 20 per cent of the improve ments can be borrowed and a first mortgage given as security
 In each local association a board of appraisers is chosen who must fix the value of the land to be mortgaged This valuation is determined by the actual earning power of the land. For this reason, unimproved land in this section which is not producing would not be subject to the provisions of the act. Often the local board has passed upon the valuation, an ap- praiser is sent from the land bank, and he must be satisfied with the valua- tion set by the local board.
 Land owning farmers who wish to borrow money under the provisions of this law should join the nearest Farm Loan association. MT. F.. G. Scott, room 406. Fleming building. Phoenix, is secretary of the local association.

ASPARAGUS MAY BE GROWN 0N ANY SOIL
 IN THE $. R. VALLEY

Asparagus may be grown on vari- ety of soils, but that most desirable is a mellow, rich, sandy loam, easy to cultivate and well fertilized. Unlike most garden crops. asparagus is inn proved by small amounts of white alkali, although the plant should not be expected to thrive in excessively alkali soils. It grows readily from seed, and we'll grown seedlings are in best condition to transplant when l year old. The seed bed should be started in February or March, as the soil then is becoming warm through the day. It is sometimes found ad- vantageous to soak the seed before planting, in order to induce more rapid germination. The seedlings should De thinned to 3 or 4 inches apart and qept free from weeds.
 Tn preparing the field for trans planting. furrows should be laid off } feet apart and the plants set feet apart in the furrow. The plants or roots, should be planted about s inches deep. but not fully covered un til top growth begins, when the fur rows may be gradually filled by culti- vation Slch plantings should be watered frequently until the plants become well established. Asparagus requires and responds to a lavish sup ply of fertilizers and manures. In order to keep the soil more friable and open, barnyard manure should be applied between the rows each winter and worked into the soil either with q 1-horse blow or a disk harrow before spring growth begins. When more concentrated fertilizers are used, mixtures that are rich in nitrogen and potash ShOuld he aDnlied
 The quantity and quality of produce grown upon the amount of fertilizers used and cultivation given. Very little asparagus should be cut until the plants are } years old or at least until they have become well estab- lished. In this climate, if asparagus is not cut too heavily in the spring, and is allowed to stand without much water in late summer it may then be watered and fall cutting obtained without apparent injury to the plants. Spring cutting can generally begin about February 15. Giant Argenteuil is the best variety that has neen found for this region.

Let 1t be repeated again. if any city folk are convinced that the farmer is making too large profit there is nothing whatever to prevent a few thousand of them from going back to the land.' If the complainant has not the money to buy an improved farm, let him take a homestead on Uncle Sam's vacant areas. If he has not the money necessary to do this. let him become tenant if even this does not seem practicable let him go out into the country as farm hand If this does not appeal to him. let him quit complaining of the profits the farmer is making

CHAPTER XIII.

1t was a room of silence, save for
the kissing of the green logs that
burned on the open hearth, and for
the slow movements Of Jennings as he
cleared the table. Straight and grim
in his chair, with the newspaper by
his side, Stephen Strangewey sat
smoking stolidly. Opposite to him, al
most as grim, equally silent, sat John.
Things were quiet at Market ket-
ton today, then, John?" Stephen asked
at last.
.aThere was nothing doing" was the
brief reply.
That, for the space of a quarter OF
an hour or so, was the sole attempt at
conversation between the two broth
ers. Then Jennings appeared with
decanter Of wine and two glasses
which he reverently filed. Stephen
held his up to the light and looked al
IL critically. JOINS remained by MS
side, unnoticed.

He passed out of the room in a

toward the church. The dream passed,
but Louise remained flesh and blood.
Her lips were warm and her arms held
him almost feverishly.

piled. "Pick up those pieces Of glass
