CITY SHOULD HAVE
THOROUGH COUNT
Census VIII Be Taken Next Month
and Citizens Are Asked TO Give
Every Cooperation
Count Ten Years Ago
Was Not Thorough

The days for taking the 1920 cen
sus are near at hand. The Bureau
Of the Census back in Washington
has sent out an appeal to every citi-
zen OF the land to give his sincere
cooperation with the enumerators
in order that the work will be we'll
done.
Ten years ago in Heppner the
work OF taking the census proved not
to be well done. In fact after the
official enumerators had finished
their task, the result of the count did
not come up to expectations. The
Commercial Club took up the mat
ter and on recount it was discover
ed that some three hundred OF our
inhabitants had been overlooked.
The recount was gratifying to the
people Of Heppner, but it was the
official count that was published
broadcast, giving Heppner a popu-
lation Of less than one thousand peo-
pie.
We should avoid a recurrence Of
this. Our population has undoubted-
ly increased a considerable number
in decade. Moreover we are de-
serving Of a thorough count. TAX
ign the census Is tedious work and
the enumerators have to go up
against some difficult problems. Peo-
pie may be away from home. This
necesstates another call, and care
must be taken that the same noses
are not counted twice. Therefore 1t
is imperative that citizens give their
best cooperation ana answer all The
questions asked by their enumera-
tors.
1t may be that sufficient enumer-
ators have not been secured to do the
work. In any event 1t presents a
live question for the Heppner Com
mercial Club and we believe the Club
has right to see to it that the city
receives fair and impartial census,

SCHOOLS WILL MAKE
STUDY Of FOREIGN COINS

The schools of the Morrow County
Chapter Of the American Red Cross
have received as unusually interest
ing coin set, including the unit silver
coin and the smallest copper coin of
thirteen great Nations of the world.
This set was loaned free by the De-
partment of Junior Red Cross, North
western Division, with headquarters
in Seattle, for use in the schools.
Mrs. Lena Smell Shurte, County
Superintendent and Director of the
Junior Red Cross for the Morrow
County Chapter, has charge of dis
tribution of the coins in this COM
and to her application should
be made by schools wishing to bor-
row the coins.
The following coins are represent
-, h.
The gazette-times. [volume] (Heppner, Or.) 1912-1925, 1919-12-25


l. Austria-Krone, Heller.
2. Belgium-Franc, Centime
3. Misunderstanding, Penny.
4. France-Franc, Centime.
s. Germany-Mark, Pfenning.
6. Holland-Guilder, Cent.
7. Italy-Lire, Centesimo.
s. Mexico-Peso, Centavo.
8. Norway-Ore.
10. Russa-Rouple.
IL. Spain-Peseta.
~. Sweden-Krona, Orc.
13, SwitZerland-Fr anc, Cen
time.
In connection with the German
mark it is interesting to note that
this coin, which is normally worth
about 24c, has fallen as low as &c in
value. while the pfenning, usually
about Nc in value, is now hardly
worth more than Indian wampum.
From these enemy coins included,
the children can understand better
the enormous indemnity imposed up
on the Central Allies.
Money is an intresting subject and
teachers will find limitless educa-
tional resource in this coin collec-
ton. When the ancient Spartan
wanted to buy sack of flour or
something, he had to hitch up yoke
of oxen to haul his money to town
for the Spartans used iron money and
trousers pockets were quite made
quate to carry enough for important
purchases. A hero in story made
the statement that he would go SO
far West that he couldn't get change
for a dollar and so far East that he
could get change for a penny. Per-
tinent to both these observations is
the currency Of Korea today, where
coins are strong by the hundred on
grass strings and where it takes nine
pounds to be worth about quarter.

How Times Have Changed
In Salem In Three Years

How times do change. 1t was scarce
ly three years ago that efforts were
being made to establish a public mar
kct in Salem in order that the farmer
might sell his produce Now the Salem
Kings Product company will buy any
thing the farmer can raise in wagon
Dad lots or half minIon pound lots.
And it WASH 50 long ago that the
hop industry was said to be all down
and out and funeral services were being
held over Il number of hop yards. Pro
hibition had killed the hop business and
the advice was cheerfully given that the
wise man would plow up his hop fields
and accept the inevitable Now the
London market is coming to Oregon
and contracting thousands and thou
sands Of pounds at prices ranging from
20 TO 30 cents.
And it was scarcely three or fouf
years ago that the loganbeuy grower
was about TO give up the ghost and bid
farewell TO his dreams of making a
living along the loggnberry route. To-
day several big plants in Salem arc

just double what was paid few years
ago. And more than that, the loganberry
industry is firmly established.
With such firms as the Salem Kings
Product company contracting With
farmers for anything they can raise,
and such big canning plants as tnc ore.
gon Packing company and the Hunt
Bros company contracting for all kinds
of fruits and berries and with both of
these plants assuming larger proper.
tions, the market for everything that
can be grown is assured.
And with the Pheasant Northwest
Products company becoming ono Of the
biggest industries in the northwest, fur
nishing Phez and Loju for the thirsty
just as national prohibition is going in.
to effect. the future Of the great logan
berry interests is assured.
Within the past three years, times
have changed SO that instead Of the
farmer hunting a market, the big plants
in Salem are urging the farmer to raise
more and then more.
