. 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. Try it when fn 'i

Pear Jlarkct". Uncertain.' ;'.
Portland, Oie., Aug. 8. 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
