Recent Rains Pull Fading Grain Crop . uui oi failure. Pendleton, July 11. Though har vest in Umatilla county will be from ten days to a fortnight late in start ing, it will prove a bigger one when finished than anyone had any reason to expect a few weeks r.go. This sis the concensus of opinion among grain buyers, farmers and otibers familiar with crop conditions. ' The cold spring had the effect of delaying the grain considerable and a short time ago conditions were any thing but promising. However, the recent rains followed by the warm days of the past week have brouglrvt out the crops wonderfully, especially in the lighter land sections, , and - the yield will not fall far short of the normal if weather conditions ' con tinue to be favorable. At the present time the wfaeat and barley is ripening very rapidly and farmers are getting their combines in readiness. Usually cutting begins in most of tlhe wheat lands about July 20 and a little curlier around Echo, but this year there will be very little cutting of wheat before August 1. The barley crop will be even later than ti.-iie wheat crop, according to au thorities. Right now every farmer in the L county is in midst of his hay harvest and they are "making hay while the sun Fibines"' and before and after the sun sets. Delayed by the unseason able weather, they are making up for lost time. As a usual thing the hay harvest is Hearing completion by July 4 but this year it had hardly started then. The only danger to the crops from now on is hail storms or hot winds. Of the two the hail could do more damage as the most, that hot winds could do now would- La to shrivel the wheat a little. - ' . Over Four Million Expected. T -.tough Hymen Cohen, market ed itor of the Journal who was here hist week, estimates that the yield this year will be about 3,500,000 bush els of wheat, local grainmen declare he is off about a million bushels. The normal yield is close to 5,000, 000 and one grainman declared it would not surprise him to see this mark reached. It will be the light land sections that will make big yields this year. The so-called pride lands of the reservation and contiguous territory will probably fall a little short ot norma! but tne lint lands win more thiAii overcome tibis deficiency. Wheat and barley about Pilot Rock, Nolin, Echo and as far north as Wallula are healed out better than for years and indicate bumper crops at this time. Inasmuch as the light lands exceed the heavy lands in area by far, tlhe increase in their yield will have a noticeable effect. ' The quality of the wheat this year is also expected to be extremely good and much better than Just year. There is some smut reported from different sections but not -enough to constitute a menace.

Two Kinds of Boys (Cleveland Leader) The story is told of a boy who forced his way into a' merchant's private of fice and said to him: 1 "Excuse me, sir, but I want a job and I'm in a hurry." "You do, eh?" responded the mer chant, "and why are you in such a hurry?" "Got to hurry." replied the youngs ter. "Left school yesterday Wl haven't struck anything yet. I can't waste time, and if you haven't got anything I'll be moving on. TJie only place I can stop long is where they pay me for it." "When can you come?" inquired the surprised boss. "Don't have to come,'" was the quick reply. "I'm here now, and wt.uld have been at work before this if you'd i said so." I ' The sequel, of course, is that the boy pot the inb and went to work on the spot. We all know the mora! intend ed to be conveyed. It's a perfectly good story one of the kind that go well in interesting I talks and magazine articles by brisk, well-dressed young fellows wno are showing old business men all about, efficiency and economy. But isn't it just possible that the quiet boy who was sitting modestly in me ante-room, wuumn iur ijui miMn to address the merchant and who had no fireworks conversation to hand out when he was given a chance to nsk for a job, was the better boy of the two and the winner in the long run?

Domestic Life in War Time Omaha Bee Eighteen months of participation in stupendous war has hud a sobering effect on the belligerents, . which .; is now being reflected in the domestic life of the peoples involved, if stories that come across the water are to be believed. Carelessness and indiffer ence hui given way to soberer and more seemly conduct, and a consequent improvement in personal habits and be havior has followed. From England comes the' testimony of a school teacher that never wore the children under her charge so well looked after as today! they come to school cleanly and tidy in appearance, and demean themselves with u decorum unknown before. This teacher holds that sinca the wives and motheis of England have actually become responsible for the 'management of the homes thy are more earnest in the pursuit of those duties that fall to the lot of tins housu v.ife. From Germany similar reports nre heard, and it may be Ureal, thai this is in some measure t;uo of the domestic life in all countries. The presence of great national danger hai turned the popular mind to the more serious contemplation of mundane things, and better ways of living naturally follow. It. is not. especially an occasion tor pride thai such a dreadful shaking up was needed to stir man to more worthy efforts, but it will be accepted as proof that bin sodden condition was not hopeless.
