This has been an annual event in North Powder for the past few years and it has been cel ebrated so that peoplo look forward to it from one year to the next. The coming one promises to eclipse all previous ones. Pearson Brothers had a serious ac cident to their threshing machine re cently. It is reported that some par ties put either rocks or iron in the bundles of grain and when it was put through the machine it was badly broken up. Suspicions pointed to cer tain parties and the Union county of ficers were summoned but the latest report is thit there are no new de velopments in the case. The local "Hawkshaws" seem to be as much mystified about the affair as every one else is. It is to ie hoped that the guilty parties will be apprehended and brought to justice. North Powder has been free from such occurrences and we hoped to escape them entirely but it seems that we must take our turn along with tha other towns. Cold weather visited us for a short time and it seemed for a time that Old Kino: Boreas had come to stay but he has biden us farewell for a time and it is hoped to be for a long time. Miss Anna Taylor who lives in the Riverdale section made final proof on her homestead on October 15. Her claim was contested sometime ago by the U. S. government on the ground that it was mineral land. This land was all designated by the U. S. gov ernment some years ago as agricul tural land ami on the complaint of some land shark or thief the u. S. comes in and makes the homesteader stand a conte3t to keep his land. Sev eral of the homesteaders have already had to fight such contests and there is somemore yet to be threshed out .ie fore the U. S. land office. If the per son or persons who are causing this trouble could be found out mere would sure be a warm welcome to them from the people in this section especially those who have had to fight tho contests. The farmers of this section are com plaining that as the price of butter fat raises the creameries are lowering their cream tests and that they are not getting as much as they were when it was much cheaper. borne tesis 'rave been dropped from 38 to 28 in a week's time. This seem3 to b& a common graft and the farmers are getting tired of it. Lots are disposing of all their dniry cows except what they will keep for their own use. When butter is made on the farm the mer chants pay from ten to fifteen cents less on the pound than lor creamery butter and the farmer must take their pay out of tha store. The farmer is getting tired of being the goat and this country is going to face a Dutter una milk famine in a short time. The merchant pay cash foi creamery but ter and why not pay cash to the farmer as well ? The day of reckon ing is not far distant. Siegel Heard who lives out in the Missouri Flat hod a sad experience with the recent cold snnp. He had the misfortune to have the engine on the combine to freeze as water had been left in it and broke all four cylinders. The machine was ta ken to Baker where it was repaired and the outfit will soon be at work j again. Mr. Heard has had several hundred acres cut with the machine and had a hundred acres yet to cut. Dr. and Mrs. Law. Mrs. Burdette check it Mr. Jerry Lenheart, who used to live in North Powder, but who now resides in Long Beach, Cal., has had his eyes operated on sometime ago and is now able to see very good for a person who had as poir sight as he has had. Mr. Lenheart's many friends in this vicinity hope that he mny be fully restored to his sight. Mr. Len heart is a pioneer grain man in Npi th Powder and is well known through out this section having been in busi ness here for several years. COVE NEWS NOTES. Third floor New Foley Bldg.
