A BILLION BUsHEL WHEAT CROP.

David " Houston Secretary of Agriculture has outlined
the agricultural program for 1918 However, the program
has aead been initiated and through the press bue
tins booklets and other publicity matter out by the depart
men America great agricultural army in active training
The program calls for production of billion bushels Of
wheat for 1918.
This vastly increased production of wheat needed IN any
event. will be absolutely essential to prevent serious shortage
of breastus summer should the growing be-
hind the season. be much damaged by early frosts.
The plan is to plant 900 to winter wheat and
l3 900 rye this fall Before putting such plan in
operation which will necessarily increase to great extent the
acreage given these crops in former years. scientific
search was made into conditions each Other questions
determined that there would be shortage Of fertilizer
general shortage in the supply Of seed of farm machinery
and that transportation facilities will be provided well
fair price for the wheat
In this big program of increased production every farmer
will expected to do his full share And expected that
farmer will fall short of his duty The government will fix the
price and the price will be big nducement to many who will
not be inspired through knowledge of patriotic duty.

THE FUEL SITUATION.

local fuel dealer has made the statement that consumers
in Heppner will be paying $4 per cord for wood before the
winter over At first thought it sounds like holdup but
on later reflection and consideration plainly where
the fuel man has sound for making such statement
At the present time there seems to be woefu shortage OF
both wood and coal for this probably due to the
fact that the past three years there has been enormous drain
upon the coal output without appreabe increase in pro
tcon War has had its effect the fuel situation and
pecay in coal England has had her great fleet OF dread
naughs under steam constantly for three The amount
Of coal consumed has been enormous
SO far wood is concerned the local fuel dealers say they
have trouble placing their ORDERS but get those orders
filed entirely different problem It is big question right
now and fuel dealers free to admit it, that Heppner IS
facing the fuel shortage in history The condition
seems to prevail over the entire Northwest The shortage
noticeable AS the months go by the situation will
become acute Its time that drastic be taken to
prevent real hardship and suffering to say nothing of the in
cOnvenences in industrial lines.

THOU ART THE MAN

The call 10 support the govern
ment by the purchase of "a Liberty
Bond is coming to every citizen, the
poor as we'll as the rich. There is
not wage Garner in the United
States or an able bodied man or
boy who can not afford to purchase
$50 or 500 bond and thereby help
the government and himself. The
bonds pay four per cent interest and
money can be borrowed on them as
collateral at six per cent anywhere
and at any time. This means that
anyone can carry 500 bond for a
year for 81, after he has made a
small payment on the purchase
price. 1t is not so much question
of a mans financial ability as it is
his desire TO help the government.
Every man, woman and child who
enjoys the blessings of this govern
ment should seriously realize thu;
he Is unit Of the whole. If we do
not contribute some portion at once
or the prosperity which our country
has made possible for us. we are not
doing our share to assist our allies.
and we may suffer q defeat which

a conquerors indemnity as will drain
our resources for generations. Dc

one billion dollars, and only short

THE RIGHT SPIRIT

When DR.. e. II. Lindley accepted
the presidency of the University Of
Idaho, The Herald predicted that be-
cause of the long and close friend
ship existing between him and Presi-
dent Holland of the State College, an
era of cooperation would be inaug-
urated between the two institutions,
which would result in great benefit
to both. That this result is being
attained is indicated by the follow
ing statement which President Lind
ley gave out for publication this
week:
Although | do not look for any
diminution of the athletic rivalry
between the University of Idaho and
Washington State College, l do count
on much closer relationships be-
tween the two institutions to the mu-
tual benefit Of both.
One OF the positive attractions of
the position offered me at Idaho was
the possibility Of working in cooper
alton with President Holland, whom
| have known ever since his matricu-
lation at Indiana University.
I'VE were the closest of friends
during our undergraduate days and
that pleasant relationship has since
been continued. Only last spring.
when | was acting in the capacity OF
/ visiting professor at Washington
State after my sojourn at Reed Col
lege | was a guest at DR.. Hollands
home for almost two months.
II feel sure that during the year
the faculty members of the two in
, situations may be greatly stimulated
by frequent conferences upon the
many kindred problems that may
arise. In fact. this program is al
ready under way in certain depart
ments both here and al Pullman.
"Unquestionably one of the great
handicaps under which the educa-
tional institutions OF the Northwest
must labor is their isolation, their
distance from other centers Of schol-
arIy activity, and the propinquity OF
/ Idaho to Washington State seems 10
ne TO afford "a great opportunity to
overcome this disadvantage.
This is the right spirit. and IL is

suits than If each were working sole
" for the ACKNOWLEDGMENT of his own
institution. Wholesome rivalry in
athletics and other student activities
is good thing for both the schools,
but close cooperation between the
faculty members in the working out
of the big problems of common in
terest to the producing classes of
both states is a condition much to be
desired.
