AREA INFECTED WITH BOIL
WEENIL GUARANTEED

The Montrose county commissioners
have quarantined 5000 acres of alfal
fa on Spring creek mesa because of
the alfalfa wecvil which was discover
ed there in June. Had this action
not been taken, the entire county
would soon have had to be quarantin-
ed. According to this edict no hay or
straw can be shipped anywhere from
this quarantincd area. The second
ary zone adjoining the auarantined
district is prohibited from shipping
hay or straw out of the county, but is
permitted to sell within the county.
The quarantine restrictions in Delta
county are even more strict since the
spread OF the weevil this year and the
growers are greatly alarmed. One
good way never before suggested
would be TO cut the field at a half
stand, let it dry on the ground for
several days and then set fire to it
so as to burn the entire field when the
wind is right.

KANSAS HORSE DISEASE
Is REPORTED SPREADING

Agricultural College News-Notes:-
The disease of horses in the Arkan--
sas valley, below Rocky, Ford is now
spreading rapidly and already many
horses have died. 1t is apparently
the same affliction that appeared
among horses of the midwest in
1912, and spoken of as the Kansas
Horse Plague. The disease has ap-
peared sparaodically since that time
and the extent of the present outbreak
is problematical. 1t has been ascrib-
ed to forage poisoning" and this is
a convenient camoufiage for the cause
has not yet been determined.
An afflicted animal first becomes
dull and listless, refuses to eat, has a
high fever, staggers and in few
hours becomes gaunt and emaciated.
Some cases manifest blindness and a
tendency to press the head against a
fence post or a building. Indications
of paralysis of the throat and muscles
of the face appear before the animal
goes down. After the animal gets
of the head on the ground. The tenn
perature becomes subnormal and in
fatal cases death may be expected to
take place With lEoul l"O W hNc Nas ..
Thus far fully half the cases have
been saved by appropriate treatment.
Vendors of "cure- alls" are already on
the field and expect to reap the usual
harvest. The following is of utmost
Importance and should be given wide
publicity:
/: There is no specific cure for the
disease, conditions must be met as
they appear in the natural progress
of the disease.
2: Beware of the man who prom.

will have the least influence in pre-.
venting the disease.

Field and FarTn:-The average life
OF a grain binder is only about 100
days, or twenty days for each of the
five years Of its use. Many farmers
get much more service than this out
Of binder. yet IS rule the life Of
binders in days of actual use as COM
pared 20 the life of the cream separ-
ator and automobiles is very short.
There are three reasons for this.
Binders are not as well constructed
as are cream scparators and automo-
biles. Ordinarily. they do not get as
good care and seldom are they given n
complete overhauling. These are
factors that farmers have within their
control.

well propOrtioned thruout. He must
be strong backed, powerful in build,
deep in the middle, well let down in
the flank and have good feet and
limbs. He must weigh over LOO
pounds in ordinary flesh. Such a
horse will bring about $3.50 but indi-
cations are that there will be an in

SAVING THE FLOOD WATERS
is A MOVE WORTH WHILE

Field and FARM
Something ought to be done with =
more serious effort in the work of saw
ing the flood waters that come charg-
ing down from the mountains every
year. Two methods are being tried.
One successful plan has been the
spreading of the storm water by
means of diversion weirs in the canons
The water thus spread sinks into the
soil and gravel and is thus stored
further down for pumping to the sur
face later. This method is applicable
to most of the large streams.
In the smaller canons another sys-
tenn is being tried. 1t is by means Of
frequent dams built from rock found
available on the spot. or by use Of
logs or other materials at hand. De-
bris washed down the canon accumu-
lstas against these dams, making a
cheek to the rush of the storm waters
which are thus permitted to sink in
to the soil and gradually percolate in
to tie tillable land or to springs. This
plan Is being experimental with very
extensively in some sections and its
success protends still further use.
Tha drouth Of the present season has
emphasized the necessity for the hold
inn hack Of more water.

Gravity System
Occasionally in our mountain dis
trict one finds a good spring ground
which is higher than the farm build
ings. II is easy TO have running
water.
The water can be piped from the
spring down to the buildings and have
a cool, fresh supply for domestic and
farm use. No power or storage sys-
TEN will be necessary. One should
be sure to protect the mouth of the
spring TO keep trash away, thereby
making the spring more sanitary.
Such system has very little pres
sure and is not dependable.
Elevated Tanks
One of the most common methods
of obtaining running water is by
means Of the elevated tank. This
system may be used with q shallow
or q deep well. A force pump or q
gasoline engine is necessary. The tank
is usually Of galvanized iron (Which is
better than woody is located on an ele-
waited tower outside, in the attic of
the house or in the barn loft. A dis
advantage of the tank system is that
the water becomes warm and stale in
summer. All pipes above ground
should be wrapped with burlap or tar
paper, then surrounded by box at
least six inches square SO that the
space between the pipe and box may
be filed with shayings sawdust, ex-
celsior or straw.
The packing should be kept dry and
should not be packed solid because
dead air spaces are necessary to pre-
vent the pipes from freezing. Some
Of the towers which support water
storage tanks are enclosed, giving
room for storage below.

MORROW COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER
THE WATER BOND ISSUE AND
SECTION THREE OF THE PRO
POSED AMENDMENT.

One man has raised the question
over section three of the proposed
amendment to the city charter under
the water bond issue. He voices his
protest in another column of The
Gd.ette-Ti Times, his main objection
being not to the bond issue itself,
but to that section which provides
that the city shall each year at the
time of making the annual tax levy
for city purposes include in such
levy sum sufficient to pay the in
terest due on the outstanding bonds
of this issue and to retire the princi-
pal thereof at maturity"
In order to sell the bonds which
will give US the funds to build the
proposed gravity water system, it is
necessary that the taxable property
of the city be put up as collateral.
There is very little if anything of a
substantial nature about any propo-
sition which is in itself, a proposal.
There must be some material wealth
back of the proposed venture which
will give ample security to the firm
buying the bonds. Hence, Heppner
and everything we have, stands gack
of this bond issue.
But that does not mean that water
users are going to get free water and
that the entire plan will be bolshe-
wiki. Not by long sight The city
council has stated on various occa-
sions that it is their intention to
make the water plant pay for itself
just as far as it is possible,
Last year the water receipts Of the
Heppner Light & Water Company,
we have been informed, amounted to
over $4,000 gross The company,
striving at they were with their wells
to supply the demand, could not ap-
proach the task by more than half.
They operate upder a big expense

pense is reduced to a minimum and

THE WHEAT MYSTERY.

There has heretofore existed in
this country a somewhat close con-
nection between wages and the price
of a bushel of wheat, not on this
coast, but in the central portion of
the nation, and earlier on the Allan.
tic coast, for wheat was once a staple
ccrop there.
Usually the price of a bushel Of
wheat has been about the average
days wage. The reason that the re-
lation has not been applicable to the
Pacific coast lies in the fact that
transportation has absorbed the
greater part of the value OF our grain,
supplemented of course by the fur.
ther fact that that ordinary wages
have been better here than in the
east.
Now, however, the old intimac,
between these factors has departed.
Wages have gone as high as a dollar
an hour for a nine-hour day in the
corn fields of the Ohio and Mississ-
ippi valleys. Wheat has not ad-
vanced beyond the government guar
anty. Whence arises the inquiry as
to what would have been the result
had the United States kept its hands
off wheat as it has kept them of 9th.
er agricultural products.
With Europe again reaping fair
crops, and with the resumption Of
her ability to feed herself, there
would seem to have arrived a time
when Washington authorities nigh,
step aside and allow the law of sup
ply and demand to assert itself. The
price OF wheat might 60 higher, or it
might 60 lower. None can tell, but
in any event it is safer and more

satisfactory to leave all soil produc-
tionS to natural laws.
The time may come, and that
soon, when there must be a SuperviS-
ion of all prices of necessities. But
surely no one product should be Sc
lected for that experiment, with all
others free in the market.
There are many who believe that
wheat would have gone to $3.50 per
bushel in 1918, and perhaps again in
1919, had the farmer controlled his
own market.-PendletoR Tribune.

Why the mail order fellow would
laugh at you.
He's willing to fire catalogue at
you point blank, but that's all. Any
contributing done is done by your
self, and the mail order man is on
the receiving end always. He may,
after he has accumulated some mil
lions Of small town dollars, present
library, park, bathing beach to
the large city where he spends the
dollars he coaxes from the small
towns. You know, mail ord e r
houses would starve if they had to
depend upon doing business with the
people who live in those large cities.
1t is the small town, the agricul-
tural community, and the farms that
fatten the mail order bank accounts,
and by so doing they bite the hand
that feeds them, the home town mer-
chants.
Let us keep that in mind, and
weigh it well, when a pretty picture
and tempting words in a mail order
catalogue appeal most alluring.
