Hendricson is marshal. Rainfall and Crops. Observations taken at this point for the weather bureau show that the total rainfall for the rainy sea Bon thus far has been 8.89 inches. This is slightly more than the to tal for the preceding season but is considerable lees than the normal precipitation. The state conserva tion commission's report places the average annual precipitation for Pendleton at H 50 inches. On the face of thiegs the lack of a normal rainfall looks dis couraging. But it must be borne in miad ,.tbt .for .T wheat raising, whicn constitutes the chief in dustry of this country, a heavy rainfall ia not essential. Experts have long declared that eight incheB of rain is sufficient to pro duce good wheat crops provided the moisture can be reasonably well conserved. That this is true is indicated by the yield of last year and by the yields in counties westward from Umatilla where the average annual precipitation is but little more than eight inches. For one of the counties west of Umatilla the average annual rain rainfall is but 8 2 inches. But good grain crops are raised in that county. But even if Jupiter Pluvius has neglected Eastern Oregon this year the result will not be greatly felt, Even should there be less than a normal crop the exception ally high price will more than off set the loss.
