Seems to me it would go against q
PERSONS stomach, just before supper
like that, and anyway tea isn't fit for
much-nOt unless you're sick or some
thing. Looks to me like some people
in this city'd be willing to go crazy
if they thought that would help 'em to
be as heightened as AmbersOns. Old
Aleck Minafer-he's about the closest
old codger we got-he come in my Of
flee the other day, and he pretty near
had q stroke tellin' me about his
daughter Fanny. Seems Miss Isabel
Amberson's got some kind of a dog
they call it a st. Bernard-and Fanny
was bound to have one, too. Well,
old Aleck told her he didn't like dogs
except rat terriers, because a rat ter
rier cleans up the mice, but she kept
on at him, and finally he said all right
she could have one. Then, by George!
she say Amberson's bought their
dog, and you don't get one without
paying for it: they cost from fifty to
a hundred dollars up! Old Aleck
wanted to know if I ever heard of
anybody's buyin' a dog before, be-
cause, even a Newfoundland or a set
ter, you can usually get somebody to
give you one. He says he saw some
ense in payin' a niger a dime, or
even a quarter, to drown a dog for
you, but to pay out fifty dollars and
maybe more-well, sir, he like to
choked himself to death, right there
in my office! OF course everybody
realizes that Major Anderson is a fine
business man, but what with THROWN
money around for dogs, and every
which and what, some think all this
styles bound to break him up, If his
family don't quit!"
One citizen, having thus %discoursed
to a visitor, came to a thoughtful
pause, and then added, "Does seem
pretty much like squandering, yet
when you see that dog out walking
with this Miss Isabel, he seems worth
the money"
whats she look like?"
swell, sir" said the citizen, "she's
not more than just about eighteen OF
maybe nineteen years old, and I don't
know as I know just how to put it
but she's kind of a delightful lookin'
young lady,"

HOUSING PROGRAM FOR

 sociations, but some of the companies have undertaken housing projects, and it is interesting to compare some of these with the government standards.
 The coal mining camp of the Phelps Dodge Corporation at Dawson, New Mexico, makes an interesting compar- ison, because good housing in coal mining camps is unusual. This com pany adopted its standard two years before the government undertook to make any standards. All of the fea- lures provided as requirements in gov ernment construction are included in the Dawson housing, and in many cases they have been improved upon. While the government requires 2O feet between buildings, and a back ward of 20 feet, a condition which is regarded as revolutionary, Dawson has 30 feet between bui ildings and a 90 foot back yard.
 Additionally, coal mining camps are cases of abominable living and sanitary conditions, and while the camps of Virginia and Pennsylvania are gradually following the pace set them by the western camps, the pro pressiveness of the West is illustrated bv the fact that their housing stan, dards of years back are even better than those set by the government as an objective, and regarded by eastern industry as almost revolutionary.

 Pat is night watchman there. He's at hospital now telling the story to the nurses.
 Sure" he says, "the copper John py Hays asked me what was think ing about while I was falling; was it me sins, or me relatives, or what? And says I: Twas the ould joke about the Irishman falling off the roof was in me mind while the bottom of the shaft was coming up to me. This ould harp sees he's falling and he says, 'Begorra, I'm in for hell of a bump And believe me or not, thst's what was thinking off,"

NEW MEXICO MAY
 TAKE LIEU LANDS

A decision of the United States Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia, which allows the state of New Mexico to select lieu school lands in forest reserves, will have consid- erable bearing on the same class of lands in the state of Arizona. Ari- zona being a mining state, many sec tions of land upon which mineral is found will undoubtedly be school sections and as there are hundreds of thousands of acres of reserves in the state most of the lieu selections will be made in these reserves.

MEETING Of MORROW
COUNTY FARM BUREAU

After an interruption of several
months, due largely to the absence
( a county agent, the Morrow County
arm bureau resumed its regular
sessions.
The Executive Committeeman met
in the Agricultural Agents office
with County Agent l.. A. Hunt to
discuss various matters of interest to
the farmers of Morrow county.

good delegation of farmers to visit
Sherman county wheat farms and
attend the farmers picnic to be held
at the Government Experiment
Station at Moro, June 14th, where
leading wheat farmers of Sherman
county will discuss farm practices
under their directions. The Bureau
lopes that all of the farmers possible
win avail themselves of this oppor-
tunity.
Upon motion of C. E. Jones it was
decided to elect committee of three
. work with the County Agent and
a committee from the Farmers Union
to arrange a farmers picnic at some
suitable place in Morrow county for
about June 21st, at which time the
farmers visiting Sherman county
would report upon their trip.
President Anderson, Oscar Keith
ley and C. E. Jones were accordingly
elected.
1t was the UNANIMOUSLY expressed
opinion that the Farm Bureau get
behind the County Fair and make it
the greatest possible success, and
hat if possible at least one car load
Of registered stock be offered for
sale at that time.
The County Agent was instructed
to proceed with plans for a grain
,lading school and secure one for
Morrow county If possible.
After some further discussion of
the completion of the final organiza-
ton of the Morrow County Farm

journed, to meet at the same place

Salvation Army when they were
ready to put on their campaign. They
are, asking this country now for $13,-
100000, and their drive will be on
from June 22 to 80. The quota for

The report of Burns & Mcdonald
civil engineers of Kansas City, who
we're employed several months ago to
make a survey and report on the
plant of the Heppner Light & Water
Co., and also on the feasibility of
constructing gravity system OF
water works ard bringing the supply
from the mountains, having handed
in their report to the city council
The report arrived on Tuesday and
was gone over by the mayor and
council. 1t is very complete in every
detail and contains a full inventory
Of the water plant, as we'll as num-
erous drawings, diagrams and photo
graphs.
Estimates are complete on the
costs Of installing a gravity system
Of water from the mountains, with
the exception of the survey desired
by the city covering the taking of
water from Ditch creek and turning
into Willow creek "A sufficient supply
to care for what the city would use
from the latter stream on account of
the city supply taken therefrom. The
engineer of the company is nov
making his survey of this and the
report will come q little later.
The city council is we'll pleased
with the report, so we are informed,
and they now express the opinion
that all adjustments between the
city and Mr.. Gates should be prompt
ly made and everything put in shape
at an early date for securing the new
water system. 1t looks very favorable
to the council at this time, and they
hope to be able to get everything
moving in that direction so that by
the coming spring, at the farthest,
work may be commenced.
