When he had tired th eyes of the fun seeking i anther of Wallowa county,, he was ordered to dance higher and with, the ommand, the bullets commenced to range higher. One, not perhaps in tended to st rike human flesh, tore .trough the fleshy part of the thigh And then the shooting stopped.

Reviews Work of the Past Tear In Umatilla County. In the neighborhood or- $60,000 has been, saved to ' farmers of "Umatilla county during' the past year, accord ing to the annual report of C. & Con nor, the retiring president of the lo cal branch of the Farmers' Education al and Co-operative . Union of, Amer ica, according to the Eaa"OregonIan. Ey the efforts of this organization. Every farmer In the county shared In $40,000 of this j sum regardless of whether or not he was a member, for the saving of this amount was secur ed by the reduction of storage charges throughout the northwest for which the Farmers' union was largely re sponsible. The remaining $20,000 was saved to the members of the organiza tion only, resulting from, the co-operative business plan which la ren dered practicable by the combining of the farmer. V ;. . . ' :' . As Illustrations of the business ca pacity of the union, Mr. Connor points out that 600,000 grain bags were pur chased at a reduction over the price of the year before of $7 per thou sand and that 7500 pounds of binder twine was purchased at 'a saving vOf 2 1-2 cents per pound. He points out further that through the farmers' . agencies at least one 1 half million bushels of grain "were sold at an average saving of three cents per bushel. In addition he Il lustrates by citing the fact that large quantities of wood, coal, posts, lum ber and dried fruits have been pur chased at large reductions. Mr. Connor then goes on to show the educational value of , the union. He states that during his Incubency in office ne has appointed more than twenty committees to Investigate sub jects of interest to the union. He shows that there are now four far mers' union warehouses being oper ated in the county and declares that, four more will , be incorporated be fore spring. . Altogether, says the retiring head of the union, the past year has been a most prosperous one both financi ally and fraternally. The membership nas aouoiea ana great enthusiasm Is telng manifested, and, in his opin ion, he. says, that the fact has been demonstrated that the success of the American farmer lies in his own tands. : ' ...
