One of the noteworthy features re-
garding the manufacture OF autoIAu
bile tires in this country is the fact
that during the last five years tires
have improved so greatly in quality
that the average number OF tires used
on an automobile during a year has
dropped from five to considerably un-
der four.
This drop has come, too, in the face
of an increase in winter driving so
large as to be vital element in the
calculation, Many cars now operate IL
months in the year but in spite OF this
increased period OF service, the aver
age annual consumption of tires per
car has steadily fallen.
With the return to normal times and
with money less plentiful. car owners
are certain to watch their expense bills
more closey. The exercise of only a
moderate degree Of care by the car
owners will lift the average mileage
secured from tires to point many
thousands of miles above any hitherto
reached.
So far as known. the best record
ever made on a set of four tires was
that of Boston merchant who got
Ss,l52 miles on set OF United States
Royal Cords. He attributed this phe-
nominal record to the care given to the
tires by his chauffeur.

Hardman Sunday School
Enjoys A Fine Picnic

On Sunday May IS, the Hardman
Sunday school held a picnic on Rock
creek. This was the happy ending Of
a very successful Sunday school, which
was instituted last fall through the
efforts OF Miss Minnie B. Spicer and
Mrs Ora Wyland Of this place, combin-
ed with those Of l. A Hunt. W. 0. Liv-
ingstone. s. E. Notson and numerous
other Christian workers Of Heppner.
There were forty seven present who
passed the time by playing games.
friendly visitation, and devouring a
very sumptuous dinner.
AS the principal workers are leaving
it was thought best to discontinue the
Sunday school until school opens next
fall,
Especial thanks are due to the Misses
Minnie and Florence Spicer for their
assistance in the work. The whole com
munity regrets their leaving and in
years to come the results OF lessons in
purity and character given by these
ladies viii stand as a monument that
will never crumble
Mr.. Emmett L. Ayers showed his
sterling worth and generosity by furn-
ishing transportation to and from the
picnic, hence thanks are due him.

TESTS AID To FARMERS

| One piece of work by the Umatilla
county agent saved 2S2 Umatilla county
wheat ranchers s21,72457 least year in
money in addition to a greater saving
in time, stagnation of business and pos
sible crop loss.
This important economy was brought
about through ordering comparatively
twenty seven tank carloads Of distillate
from California for use in tractors and
trucks. With harvest coming on. Una
tilla caunty farmers found that distil-
late was off the market in the North
west and they would probably have to
turn to gasoline for fuel There was
also a serious gasoline shortage and
the situation looked bad.
The county agent however, located a
supply of distillate in California and as
result twenty-seven carloads were
brought to the county. The total cost
was s47,3S733. The same amount of
gasoline would have cost s69.0S1.90,

work on a smaller scale The Sherman
county agent handled seven carloads Of
dstillate. saving the farmers approx
imately $4,000 In Morrow county FIVE
carloads were brought in saving more
than $4,000, one carload Of distillate
was brought to Union county at a crit
ical time.
Four carloads were shipped into
Wasco county as result Of coopera-
ton between the county Farmers

man. at is difficult to estimate the
saving on this shipment" says County
Agent Jackman. Most Of the men
would have been compelled to burn
/ gasoline which would cost them $4,000
above the price of the distillate In
addition they could only buy a barrel
or two at time and often could get
none at all, Some farmers could only
obtain gasoline by shipping their drums
sixty five miles and their return was
often delayed for many days. This
delay during harvest would have made
continuous work impossible. One of
the gasoline dealers here says that had
it not been for the distillate few auto
mobiles would have been running dur
ing the harvest season"
Eastern Oregon county agents in
many counties are working on the same
project this wear.

beyond question by the Sherman County
Experiment Station at Moro.
| Does 1t pay to chop alfalfa hay for
steers in Eastern Oregon?
! Does it pay to build shelter for win

Does It pay to harrow fall wheat in
the spring?
| Does 1t pay to grow green crops to
plow under on the light irrigated soils
Of Eastern Oregon's irrigated districts?
| Definite conclusions on these ques-
tions also have been reached on the
different branch experiment stations in
Eastern oregon.
The changing econo.lic situation
bringing about serious conditions in
Eastern oregon is causing an unpre-

| Oregon Agricultural college, will visit
! the Union Station where extensive feed
ing tests are being carried on to deter
mine the value of different kinds Of
silage, the value of chopping hay and
other feeding practices and wintering
methods. At Union many variety tests
of forage crops are also in progress.

Eastern Oregon.
At Hermiston methods of handling

Twirlers soIyan and Montague Fea-
ture Of Game.

Z Last Sunday the Heppner baseball
team. under the management OF Dave
Wilson. journeyed to Arlington. where.
midst the thick Of wind and sand. they
battled the team Of the Gillian county
town to a standstlll The game started
shortly after 23O, and from then till
nearly 500 the battle waxed on with
both sides playing air-tight ball Hepp-
ner scored her first tally at the turn
loose, when Elliot, her star third
sacker, crossed home plate on an error
of the Arlington catcher after having
gained first on a neat little single.
stealing second, and making third on a
sacrifice
Only a half dozen men OF both sides
were able to gain first base from then
on till the sixth inning when Heppner
squeezed in another run, and two Ar
lington men crossed home plate The
score remained a tie then until Arling-
ton ran in the deciding score In the
18th.
The outstanding feature of the game
was the master twirling of Solyan for
Heppner and Montague for Arlington.
Little choice can be had between the
work Of these two men. Both have
knack of putting the ball just where
the batter is unable to connect with 1t.
as well as never getting themselves
into a hole Neither walked a man
Sundays game. and both struck out
goodly number Of the batsmen who
faced them.
However the work Of these two
moundsmen did not excel that Of many
other players. Hargett Heppner's key
stone sacker, caught fly ball which
appeared impossible to field. The fly
was knocked over the first baseman's
head well into right field, and Hargett
received the ball into his outstretched
hands while running at full speed,
which was travelling some, If the word
of spectators be true. Elliot at third
for Heppner, also made a couple Of
plays which would be considered star
ball in any league, scooping up two red
not udhlAE pcELeGl
throw to first each time. Griffin. be-
hind the bat held up Solyan in good
shape, and showed his worth at the bat
by getting two fine hits and reaching
home for Heppner's second score. Aiken
and Boardman. at first and short re-
spectively for Heppner, likewise played
big league ball. Gay Anderson played
his usual stellar game in center field.
and chalked up couple of hits to his
credit. The other outfeld positions
were occupied by Greenwood, in right,
and Crawford. in left field,
Next Sunday Arlington comes here,
and Manager Wilson states that they
are going to get an awful drubbing.
Anyway it promises to be good game,
as the result of last Sundays contest
shows the teams to be very evenly
matched; so whether you are baseball
enthusiast or not II will be worth your
time and money to witness this game.
If you are not fan already, it is more
than likely this game will make one Of

team you are interested in seeing them

up that was used last Sunday, and with
weeks practice all men will be in fine
