PAGE SEVEN ALBERTA INVESTORS WISER LA GRAXDE EVENING OBSERVER WEDXI 1 AY, JULY ID, 1010. KG45S 4 RE PLENTIFUL. ! Q ,t0)UOo, t MltltMMMOMMMMMMM I Ttt M tIMs QMM MMOOMOI MMHHMIMHIIHtHMIIt Crops W1U be Almost Total Loss This Season. That the grain crop In Alberta is almost a total failure thlB year is the substance of reports being received by Pendleton and Umatilla residents who have been harvesting in Alberta cheap lands during the past few years. The absolute lack of moisture g responsible for the absence of any grain to harvest from thousands of ac res, affirms the Pendleton East Ore gonian. Before leaving on a visit for the east this morning, Dave Cargill. who was one of the first to invest in the Alberta country, declared there would be nq grain to harvest in his section, Take Prop and Market Is Well Load id with Efnr This Week. Woman to Ron for Governor. Concord, N. H., July 13. Mrs. Mar Ilia M. Ricker, New Hampshire's fam ous woman attorney, has again come to the front as a candidate for gov ernor of the state. It is asserted by her admirers that her candidacy is bonafide and that she will make an earnest campaign. .Mrs. Ricker was the first woman to seek a diplomatic post. She sent her application, with strong endorse ments to President McKlnley for the post of minister to Columbia. She was the first woman lawyer to be admit ted to tiie bar in New Hampshire, and was associate counsel with the late Colonel Ingersoll in the Star Route trials. Strong and steady supplies have dropped the price of eggs in La Grande and fresh products are buying and selling at thirty cents gain, fol lowing the rise of a few days ago. The supply is ample to meet all demands today and there is no reason why it should not continue. On the other hand it is almost impossible to get young chickens and old liens are al most equally scarce. With the prices good and the demand something "aw ful", as the meat dealers say, it is pe culiar that more Grande Ronde far mers do not devote themselves to the production of more chickens. Walla Walla peaches are selling 10 cents a pound are coming in regular ly this week and the quality Is good. Market Quotations. . ... . ... . . ..,-v... vvS-;M . vj.fi -'?

Thehonors of the day were divided between Barney Oldfleld, with nlB 200 horsepower Benz machine, and C. O. King, with hla Maxwell 30 horsepower stock car. Oldfleld lowered his previous record of one mile to 61 6-6, which ia a new coast record for the circular track. With the exception of this performance, Oldfleld had to take second place In the Hat of racing honors, as the world's champion met defeat in both the five and fifteen mile handicap events, and in both races King and his Maxwell were the victors. In fact, King proved the surprise of the meet, driving all of hla races with much Judgment and taking the turns with his car as close to the fence as did Oldfleld. In the five mile handicap, Oldfleld drove his Knox racer to the utmost, hut the handicap was too strong and he could not get the lead away from King. Not only in the handicap events did King and his Max well prove stars of the first order, but in One of the first events of the day, the five mile race for cars costing from 91200 to 91600, which was one of the hestmatches of the meet. The time for the five mile handicap was as follows: Maxwell, King, 4.40.30; Oakland, Nelson, 4.48.26; Chalmers, West, 4.49.30: Auto Car , finished fourth, and the Knox car, Barney Oldfleld driving, fifth.
