ARTHUR E. HASCALL

	Arthur E. Hascall has for sixteen years been engaged in the stock business
and general farming in Umatilla county in the vicinity of Pine Grove post
office, where he owns a ranch of four hundred and forty acres. He was born in
Durham, Maine, on the 22d of May 1872, a son of Charles D. and Ellen C. (Warner)
Hascall, the father a native of the state of New York and the mother of Vermont.
In 1885 they crossed the plains to Oregon with their family, locating in this
county in December of that year and have ever since made this their home.
	The boyhood and youth of A.E. Hascall were largely devoted to the
acquirement of an education and to assisting his father with the cultivation of
the ranch. When he attained his majority he left the parental roof and went out
to make his own way in the world. For two years thereafter he devoted his
energies to lumbering, but he gave up this occupation at the expiration of that
time and turned his attention to stock raising and general farming. Having been
reared on a ranch he was perfectly familiar with both lines of the business and
was well qualified to succeed as he had received a good practical training under
his father. As his means were somewhat limited it was necessary for him to begin
in a small way, but he extended his activities as he prospered and his ranch now
contains four hundred and forty acres of good land. His fields are devoted to
the raising of such cereals as are best adapted to the soil and annually yield
him abundant harvests. A man of practical ideas and good judgement, Mr. Hascall
keeps a good grade of stock, believing that the expense of maintaining an
inferior animal is as great as for a good animal, while the former always
commands a much less price in the market. He is prospering because he has
applied himself closely and energetically to his undertakings, his success being
entirely attributable to his own efforts.
	In 1896 Mr. Hascall was united in marriage to Miss Maggie Palmer, who was
born in Shelby county, Iowa, a daughter of S.B. and Mary Palmer, both natives of
the state of New York. From their they subsequently removed to Iowa, making
their home in that state until the early '80s when they came to Oregon, where
they both passed away. Five children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Hascall, as
follows: Charles B., Cecil S., Mary E., Virgil E., and Daphne A.
	The fraternal relations of  Mr. Hascall are confined to his membership in
Pilot Rock Lodge, No. 155, I.O.O.F., and in matters politic he is a republican
and for twelve years served on the board of school directors in his district. He
has made orderly progression in development of his interests as he is a man of
definite purpose, who concentrates his entire powers upon the achievement of his
ambition.
