Farmst thoughts nT the old
bw tmmin hole developed in the
mlndH of La (Irande and I'nlon
county people yesterday, when thr.
first real touch of summer weath
er appeared, breaking a long con
tinued wet season. Yesterday was
th hottest day no far this year,
with the temperature reaching !Mi
degrees above zero In mld-utter-noon
and declining but five, de
grees by five o'clock.
Indication!! that warm s weather
was due to slay awhile came W'd-nef-day
v. hen the mercury cllmb
ed to 7K above. Todny gives pro
mise of reaching yesterday's mark
and possibly surKissing It.
The warm weather is somewhat
a relief following the unseasonal
wet, cold period that has Just pass
ed, although the heat, heenUH" of
its sudden arrival, is felt more
than had It came more gradually.
.Many local weather prophets,
predict that real 'summer" we:i-1
ther is ahead and the weather fore-i
cast today for Oregon bears them1
out at least for the week-end. '

WALLOWA, Ore. (Special)
Since June 8. certain of Wallowa'si
formerly peaceful Hocks of sheep
have become tin- victims of night ly
ravages of unidentifb'd dogs. No
more do Hie sherp r-st contented
ly Hi rough Hie night. Instead,
they are terrorized w b n bunches
of blood-thirsty dogs climb over
tin fence of (io-lnch rabbit poultry
w ire, or t he corral oi t he stock
yard.
They run in and out among the
sheep, often making no noise oth
er than an occasional bark. They
kill th" sheep and tear their flesh
to pieces. One dog, with 1 h it trait
of the wild cat, caught a sheep hy
1 he juglar vein and sucked (U
blood.
Work in Groups,
The animals work In groups of
from six lo II a and do their work
from 2::tti to d o'clock in th morn
ing until they are discovered or
are driven away by the coming of
duy.
J. L. Maxwell, sheep miser and
breeder, has lost nine sheep, five
of which were of lull blood Delain
breed. James Noregard had 1 3
sncep bitten and tour killed.
These ferocious dogs are not
strange animals which hide by day
and do their work by night, nor
ure they from a inysbu ions p trlt
from other regions. They habitatn
