F, R. Brown, Morrow County Agri-
cultural Agent for the past year, has
rendered his resignation to the
authorities of the Oregon Agrieultur-
al College, under whose Jurisdiction
he has been working, the same to
take effect just as soon as sue
cessor can be named. Mr.. Brown
has associated himself with F. A..
McMenamin of this city in the for
nation of a company known as The
Farmers Exchange of the Inland
Empire, with head offices at Heppner.
The new organization will handle
income tax statements, conduct
auction sales and handle other mat
ters in which the farmers and stock
growers of their territory may be in
terested, and we predict that they
will have fine line of business,
judging from the calls already COM
ing to them Mr.. Brown has made
good in his position of County Agent
and We feel quite sure that his
earnest efforts to bring about better
conditions among the farmers of this
county has met with universal ap-
proval and they will be sorry to have
him retire from the job Whether
an agent will be maintained here the
coming year has not yet been fully
decided and will depend largely on
what funds will be available for this
purpose from the general govern
ment.

Sui phur Increases Yield of Alfalfa
Should Be Applied Early.

Reports from all parts of the state
show that one hundred pounds of
sulphur sown broadcast or drilled
into the soil of alfalfa fields will in
crease the yield one ton per acre.
On trial in this county carried out
on the farm of Jack Hynd, under the
direction of the County Agent has
shown that the same results will
apply to Morrow county, especially
along Willow creek. Mr.. Hynd ap-
piled sulphur to two acres of his
alfalfa at the rate of 120 pounds per
acre and was rewarded with an in
crease of 4 of ton per acre. The
total cost of the sulphur and work
of applying it was $440 and with
hay selling at $40 per ton returned
net profit of $3.50 per>acre. 1t is
not every day farmer obtains such
good returns on his investment. The
sulphur should be applied bteween
now and the first of February for
best results. Other trials will be
carried out during the coming season.

Mrs. Anette Glassford, of Cor
Wallis, has been visiting for several
weeks past with her relatives In
Morrow county. She came here with
Mr.. and Mrs. j. C. Owen on their
return trip from the Willamette
Valley, and is visiting with the family
of Mr.. Owen in Hepner. Mrs. Owen is
her daughter. Mrs. Glassford was a
pioneer resident of Morrow county,
having lived at Hardman when there
was no town there. Her family left
this county and went to Corvallis
nearly thirty years ago and this is
the first time that she has visited
Heppner since.

Allied Ministers Flee

Washington. Feb. S.-An uncon-
firmed report that all the allied mis-
sions at Petrograd had been driven
out by the Bolsheviki government
and are on their way to the Swedish
border. was received to-day at the
State Department through American
Minister Morris at Stockholm.
The department has not heard
from Ambassador Francis at Petro-
grad since February ..
State Department officials were
unprepared TO believe the American
ambassador was leaving Petrograd
because his last dispatch contained
nothing to indicate that he con-
templated going. 1t was considered
possible. however, that expulsion
might also include a refusal to per-
nit the diplomats to communicate
with their governments.
Minister Morris at Stockholm also
reported that two trains from Petro-
grad had arrived here, one bringing

N our division started on the drive
at $50 o'clock in the morning and
at o'clock we had covered about
i've. miles of territory formerly oc-
Cupied by the Germans. This was
considered a terrific blow to the Ger
man line at that place. The British
losses in this blow were great, but l
managed to come through uninjured.
When we stopped we were in the
front line. Thelast captured German
trench was our front line trench.
The weather was very bad and we
were compelled TO stay in this trench
for then days without relief. The
living here was miserable. We were
then sent back for rest.
In the Rock drive on May IL, I
was wounded. We were making a
drive over a trench and l felt some
thing hit my left leg but thought it
was stone. Later l felt blood
streaming down my leg. l looked
down and saw a hole in my puttee. I
was able TO get back 10 the trench
where the hospital unit took charge
of me. l was in the hospital about
two months.
