WHOLE WH1TXKY FAMILY. Cliff. Ijke County, Or., Aug. 20. Keillor Medford Mail: After an absence from borne tor the past three weeks, your corre spondent will endeavor to make good and record a few Items from this part of man's earthly heritage, fls., southern part of Eastern Ore gon. Having a yearning to worn: in the hay field myself and betterhalf and the boys (us four and no morel, hied ourselves to Summer Lake, 0 miles away. Arriving at the Harvey ranch, which Is under lease by G. J. Wood ard, we were distributed for work as follows: Wife was installed as as sistant cook and dishwasher, one boy was put to manipulating a hay brick, the other as one of two net setters, and the old man set to do ing stunts as "pull-up boy." We were told this latter Job was a snap, but after nine days of continuous service the old man concluded tbere was no snap about It. He rather thought that setting out apple and I pear trees ior jonn uiweu ana otn- crs in the Rogue River valley was a better snap than this was. Every body is familiar of course with the song, "Everybody Works But Fath er," but In this case "father worked too." Well, see, I am digressing somewhat as to the general line of news. Harvesting Is about over within our Immediate vicinity. All grain crops with us are cut (or hay. Rye la the principal one, but numerous pieces ot wheat, oats and barley were cut. and while the yield was light, the quality was good. New arrivals are dally coming In to Northern Lake county, and many are filing on homesteads. A large amount of sage brush land la being cleared off and this fall will see a large acreage ot grain sown. While the crops this spring were cut short by the late frosts, farmers will not hesitate because of .these failures, but win enlarge their field ot operations. The past ten days have been very hot and sultry. Indications tor rain are showing up for two or three days past, and we are In hopes we will be blessed with a good shower. Our last rain fell about ten days ago. F. N. WHITNEY. XKW8 OF THE COIRTS. George Willis Stevens, vs. Bank ers' Reserve Life company, a corpo ration.
