The picture and the story were copied and some Interesting' things followed. Not the least interesting was a let ter which came a few weeks ago to Mrs, Edgar from a cousin of hers Frank p. Tracy, who lives at Guthrie Center. Iowa tho childhood home of her father's family. Mr. Tracy had, been handed a clipping from an Ore gon, paper which had found Its way back to the Hawkeye state. Mrs. Ed gar had not seen this cousin for at least, 66. years. ' The writer stated that he was eight, or nine years old when Mrs. Edgar's father started for the west, and he Is now past 75 years. For the first few years he had kept track of the affairs of his rela tives who had made the long Journey to the far west but after those first years he had completely lost trace of them. The story was the first word he had had. A Portland paper not long since carried an Interesting story of these pioneers, Mr. and Mrs. Edgar, who now live with their daughter, Mrs. Julius FlEher. Both are in rather feeble health, but are very happv ln their surroundings, enjov visitors and In looking through these notes I am impressed by the absence of the urual reference, ln pioneer papers, to hardship and suffering. Mr. and Mrs. Edgnr, I take it, are hot of the suf fering kind. Nor is it apparent were their fathers and mothers before them of the suffering kind, for in the story of the two long treks, one from Indiana, the other from Iowa, no mention Is made of trouble with the Indians along the trail or with the gilm circumstances commonly at tendant on such journeys. Ttys accounts, perhapB, for the other fact that Mr. and Mrs. Edgar are today keen of mind and in en joyment of good physical health. It may be' that they were more naturally constituted for pioneering than others have been. At one time or another, 1 gather from the memo randa, they have lived in. all- parts of Oregon. " ' In July, 1883 the family started from the Willamette valley for Grant county. This Journey was a mem orable one, for ln the Bantlam pass they had an experience with a forest fire, set, It was supposed, by pris oners who had escaped from the penitentiary. ' "First came to waves of frogs and toads several inches deep- coming dnwn thn mountnlns to. escape the fire' says the memorandum of this 13 LORIMER'S LA GRANDE city dye Works Cleaners of Fancy Gowns Men's Suits Dry or Steam Cleaned Phone Main 72 I "22 Depot Street SUCCESSORS TO WARDROBE ' are waiting the warmer weather when.

Of these only J two survive Ella Elizabeth, wife of Julius Fisher, with whom they are at present making their home ln ; Union county, and Lovcne. wife of Wllford Williams of the state traffic ' police. These items I .have taken from a i email sheaf of yellow memoranda. . covorlng the lives or a man, ana horses were In live coals up to their fetlocks. They screamed with pain, but they pulled us out." Mr. Edger's earlier life was given over to raising cattle and horses, both ln eastern and western Oregon. Later he settled down to farming in the Willamette valley. It Is probable that Mr. and Mrs. Edger have as thorough an acquaint ance with the state of Oregon as It Is possible for any person to have. They have moved about, and their woman In Oregon for upwards of RO ! yare cover almost the entire upon of years, ' me state s aeveiopmeui, and with the large amount of, rain which has occurrea aunng ine insb live weeks, the ground la settled un til it is quite solid, . ' Plowing To Start If fair conditions prevail, next week will see plowing of the well drained soil get fajrly well started at a number of places. A largo amount of plowing was done at many at" the farms last iall and intentions arc to work this as soon as possible for spring seeding. Fall bowii wheat crops are looking quite gpojd at many of tho farms. However, further back ln the hills where the snow' has not been melted away for any great length of time, the! wheat is still quite small. Most fields present a fairly , good stand. 1 Home Winter Kll Some Indications of winter killing I lo noted ln many places at this time, however, the kill does not appear extensive enough to warrant any ro sccding to speak of, but rather spot ted with only occasional dead bunches, more especially in low spots. Drying weather during the past few days seems to be forming a crust on the top of the soil and some of the farmers express the opinion that it may be necessary to do some har rowing of wheat as soon as tho ground becomes dry enough to al low travel' over it without injury to the grain. Grass Does Well Grass in all- parts of the county Is suld to be making an excellent growth at this time. Many bandB of. stock which have been held on feed yards until recently have been moved out to pasture at this1' time and are rapidly shedding their long coat of winter hair and beginning to fatten 'up. According to reports irom a number of the stockmen there has been but little troublo from ticks this spring and with warm weather approaching it Is not felt much trouble. Is likely to bo experi enced after this late in the season. But little planting of early garden has been done here yet. ' Some are expecting to have garden plots plowed soon and expect to be able to do some planting during1 the next week or two. Baptist Church At Cove Seeks New Minister By Mrs, J. U.
