News And Personals Of Interest Over The Grande Ronde Valley Si Many Sheep Are Coming Into Wallowa County WALLOWA (Special) The number ol bands ol sheep which have been brought to this county during the post few weeks greatly out-number the bands which are usually brought here for summer range. It Is not known how many sheep are being ranged in the timbered areas of the county, but apparently the most ot the range areas are; quite well stock ed. The grass, In the late parte of the county which are used until well Into the fall, Is sold to be quite good at this time and with tho3e sections receiving heavy rains It Is thought the forage conditions In most sec tions will hold out good for summer and fall range. Close-In pastures In the hills aro drying up quite rapidly and some of the dairymen report a considerable folllng'Off. Jn milk production from their herds- during the past week or two. Irrigated pastures ore Just com. Ing Into their best at this time SOME GRAIN IS BURNING OUT WALLOWA (Special) The con tinued dry weather appears to have caused the squirrels to be moru de structive to grain crops, than Is usu ally the case at this season of the year. Some farmers In hill areas re port' the loss of from 25 to as much os 100 acres of grain. The most' of this. It Is believed, will mean a com- plete loss, Inasmuch as the soil has becuiiie'very dry and chances for rain to soak the soli sufficiently to cause the grain to make much of a growth again are held very slight. Only small damage has been done to spring-sown crops and with the sea son near at hand when squirrels usu ally begin holing, It Is believed spring groin will not receive the damage which has occurred to lall-sown crops. Heavy showers of rain fell the last of the week, but reports from hill areas Indicate that It was not heavy enough to be of any great benefit to crops, Some burning of the grain on thin land has occurred the past week and unless considerable rain comes In the nert week or two much ot the wheat will be suite short, as will also bo tho case with spring-sown crops as much of the moisture has been sapped from the soil by the wind and warm weather. . , HAYING THE BILL ON WALLOWA FARMS WALLOWA (Special) Haying has started at a number of farms and . others state they will start cutting thelc- llrsctops jjiboutwJuly--4;- In some places the alfalfa appears to be quite good. Some farmers have al ready engaged their hay hands and wages for tills class of work Is said " to be $2 per day. A large part of the help will be paid In hay again tills season according to reports. With a considerable number of the local men at the Imnaha camp It Is likely h mwt. if t.hA idle, men here will be able to find work during the rush of the haying and harvest, season, nrain farmers, most of whom ore fac ing the possibility of short crops and prospects for low prices, are hkiuiub on doing their harvesting as cheaply as possible with exenange oi woiit and cutting with combines which will require little extra help.
