WOOLGROWERS FIND
POSITION RELIEVED
Means For Financing Growers of
Country Until Market Again Re-
turns.

Portland-The federal reserve
board has provided means for financ-
ing the woolgrowers Of the country
during the present emergency in
which there is virtually no market
for wool.
Warehouse receipts and bills of
lading may be used as collateral for
drafts drawn by the grower against
his bank, for such sums as the banker
and grower may agree upon. These
drafts will then be discounted by the
branch federal reserve banks. The
paper must have maturity Of not
over 80 days, although it is thought
likely the board will ultimately e4.
tend this period to six months. With
in that time the wool market will be
restored, bankers and growers be-
lieve.
Announcement to this effect was
recently made by DR.. S. w. Mcclure,
NhO was ottEt-
tary of the national woolgrowers as
sociation, and who is recognized as
the leading wool authority in Amer
lea, DR.. Mcclure is, now manager
of the Cunningham Sheep and LanL
company of Pendleton.
Dr. Mcclure says, mo extraodin-
ary difficulty will be encountered now
in financing the wool clip until a
normal buying market shall assert it.
self. Wool buyers quit buying wool
because of the furore against the
high cost of clothing, which disor-
ganized the wool market.
Wool is now made an essential
commodity. 1t was the unanimous
opinion that the wool market is
sound; that the supply of clothing
was below normal and the wool sup
ply not large. 1t is my personal opin-
ion that in 80 days the market will
reopen again." DR.. Mcclure assert

Keep Work at Home" Is
Slogan of Local Garage Man

Keep the work at home" is the
slogan of Ira W. Thornton Of the
Heppner Garage Machine Shop. and
putting that slogan into effect Mr..
Thornton this week received a new
Marvel cylinder boring machine. This
machine has capacity of from three
to eight inches and will accommodate
any make or design of motor. With
this latest addition to his shop, Mr..
Thornton increases greatly the eff
cheney Of his equipment and greatly
enlarges the scope OF his business, as
all re-boring work has heretofore
gone out of town, mostly to Portland
While the new machine has cost con-
siderable money, Mr.. Thornton be-
lieves the public will appreciate his
efforts to give quick and efficient SER
vice and that the machine will prove
a paying investment.

THE FIRE COMPANY

What can be done to put more life
into the fire company? We have a
few members who are willing to take
some time to drill, but We need more
We need more of the young, athletic
fellows, We may think that we can
successfully fight fire without prac-
tice, but our experience in the not
remote past does not support that
view. We need practice in order
to be familiar with the apparatus, to
keep the apparatus in working Or
der, to be acquainted with the loca-
tion of~the fire plugs, to be expert
in laying line of hose and getting
the water on the right spot in the
possible time. One minute s
time may decide whether we win or
lose fire. Would it not be a good
plan to have meeting of the citi-
zens and firemen with view of stir
ring interest in the matter? The
Mayor and Council are willing to do
in their power to help this
matter, but they do not have the
power to draft firemen, And, besides
this is matter which concerns every-
body. Some evening in the near tu,
ture, school will be held to in
struct the ladies in the use of the
small hand fire extinguishers which
many have in their homes. Due an
nouncement will be made, and it is
hoped that the ladies will be presen.
in large numbers. If We do not sue
coed in enrolling larger number of
young men in the fire company, we
may find it necessary to drill the la
dies and the older men in handling
the truck Citizens, what shall we
do about this?

STILL Of BIG CAPACITY
FOUNDRY LOCAL OFFICERS
Several Hundred Gallons of Booze
Nipped in the Making When Ben
Moore and Chester Sailing Are Ap-
pretended by Sheriff and Deputies.

Six hundred gallons Of mash ready
for the first run through one Of the
most elaborate stills yet taken by To-
cal authorities, was what Sheriff
George McDuffee and deputies Tom
Chidsey and George Bleakman found
IN the extreme southwest corner Of
Morrow county early on Wednesday
morning OF this week. The still was
situated close to the Wheeler county
line.
1ne officers had been on the trail
Of this particular moonshine plant
since February, but its operators had
moved fom time to time. Having
finally located the still, Sherih Nc
ounce and his men bided their time
and on Wednesday morning, shortly
after day-break, walked up to the
tent about three hundred yards from
the scene of operations and there
found Ben Moore, Chester Sailing and
Emmett Moore asleep. The men were
awakened and Sailing and Ben Moore
were brought to town. The still was
completely dismantled by the officers
and the copper coils we're brought to
Heppner.
The still was steam operated, the
steam being generated from large
boiler weighing about 400 pounds.
The time for hearing has not at
this time been set, and in the mean
time Sailing is out under bonds while
Moore is guest Of the county in the
stone bastile. Emmett Moore, while
found in the company of the alleged
moonshiners, has not been arrested,
as nothing has yet developed to in
dicate that he had any connection
with the layout. Sheriff McDuffee
was within a few feet of the plant
at one time and watched the men at
their work. They offered no resis-
tance when taken by the officers.

son, of the Palouse country, have
purchased the Alfred Kerber half

the rate of $40 an acre, being the

proud of their new investment.
