The 1913 harvest is on and will bo in full blast by the fore part of the week, says the Elgin Recorder. Com bined harvesters have been running in Grande Ronde valley - all week and headers have b?en at work for sever al days. Grain is ripening rapidly in that section and if weather conditions continue good the harvesting of the banner crop- of Union county will soon be. eomo! ?d. ... .'. t Binding operations started in the Flat section last week, and headers have ben in oneratii for several days. In fact, the gram has ripened on the Flat as errly this season as in Grande Ronde, and the farmers of that . favored section will have their crops cared for at an early dSte. The same , conditions apply to all farming sec tions surrounding Elgin, 'i -.' A ride through the wheat fields of Union county at this time of thn year is well worth taking, and to those un-' acquainted with the productive quali ties of the county would be a marvel, i . There is no 'question but that the rrnn tV' '"ear is fr above""the aver age, and the yield ftay .exceed that of any past year in the history of the county.. v i Prolific crops have not' only been nroduced in Grande Ronde and on thej Flat, but in the smaller farming sec-.; tions, and all over there is a yield thtl" cannot help but bring prosperity to the farmer and all other classes. ( ; So far sufficient labor has been se-, cured, but it is feared that when hart' ves'e o-,-rations are ut the highest point there will be a scarcity of la-1 bor and farmers are somewhat alarm ed at the outlook. , Local farmers; pcoured Elgin this week to find suffi-' cient help to Care for their crops and unless there is an influx of men dur-l ing the next few days there will be a j shortage. However, it is thought that' no damage will result because of the lack of laborers. If weather conditions continue favorable, there will be suf-i ficiert. men to care for the crops, but it will require long hours to do so. Warehouse managers are preparing for the storing of the'cropw, and an-, ticipate that thiir buildings will be, taxed to the fullest capacity. They ex-: pect a record yield. , Good Reason for His Enthusiasm. When a man hsis suffered for sev eral days with colic, d'ufrhoca or oth er forms' of bowel complaint and is then cured sound ana well by one or I two doses of Cha mberlain's Colic, Chol era and Diarrhoea Remedy, as is often the case, it is but natural that he should be enthusiastic in his praise the remedy, and espeeially'is this the case of a severe attack when life is threatened.

Feeling the ' pulse of th pear market" at this time is one of the most exciting of voca tions. . The temperature of the trade ranges from blood heat to icy cold and it's up to the sales management to know when the pulse is at its high est and when it will begin to drop. To know to the fraction of a cent what the markets thousands of miles away will pay for a product they have never seen, and several weeks "in ad vance of shipment, is a problem that causes the muscles to twitch and the hair to disappear. This is the condi tion nf the near trade at the mo ment. Anyone can sell a product atj what the buyer is willing to give for it but it takes a more thorough knowl-! edge of the situation and the desires of the trade to ascertain definitely wheth er they will stand for an advance of perhaps a dime a box. Today the Northwestern Fruit ex change of this city sold a big lot of cars of Rogue River Bartlet pear: : t the extreme high water mark of the season to date $1.90 per box, f. ol b.. shiDDimr point, with a big cash ad vance to insure the shipper against non-acceptance of the fruit after ship ment. . This nrice was obtained only after local selling interests had abso lutely refused to talk to the eastern trade at all regarding pears unless something ahove $1.85 was offered. To give the easterner's an " idea of the real strength of the situation and the excessive demand fdr pears, 2.03 was asked but some of the early bid ders were allowed to get in on the ground floor at $1.90. This makes an advance of about 40 cents a box for pears since the present season started and the end is still obscured. The advances made in the price of pears by the local selling interests wer secured in the face of the peri fl'itent dumping of Washinifton pears Remindem of the Ancient Architectural '. ,.
