Grain Crops Yielding
Better Than Expected
There has been a few of the farm
era on the Agency Plains and the
vicinity of Madras cutting; their
grain this week. Most of them,
however, are cutting their hay, but
' ne or two combines have already
started threshing. Harvest will not
be in full swing until next week,
-owing to a considerable amount of
grain not being ripe enough to
"thresh with the combined harvest
ers. Some pieces of grain which
were not considered extra, being
thin on the ground, are turning out
better than twenty bushels per acre,
as near as could be estimated. It
seems to be a fact that though much
of the grain does not look good,
it will turn out much better than
has been anticipated. Much of the
damage to grain this year was
aused by late frost in the spring
-coming at a time when the bloom
"was on, however, the younger stalks
atooled out after the grain filled
out. Should a good rain come
during the next few days a large
crop will be had in many localities,
Madras Pioneer.
Most of the farmers of this sec
tion are busy with their first crop
of hay. Cutting started Monday
-and will continue for the next two
weeks. Many of the alfalfa raisers
are figuring on making three cut
tings. The first crop of both alfalfa
and clover are much better than
the raisers had expected, and it is
certain that the second cutting will
be far above the average of the
past few years. Sisters Herald.
Crooked River Water
Rights Are Settled
State Engineer Lewis announced
last week that he had received ad
vices that the circuit court of Crook
county had confirmed the state
water board's adjudication of 250
water rights on Crooked river, the
largest and most important ad
judication ever completed by the
board.
The adjudication involves 30,500
acres of land, which with the water
rights, is valued at 11,000,000, and
it ends expensive litigation, which
has heretofore been carried on with
relation to the water rights on this
stream. Some of these water
rights were initiated a half century
ago.
RHEUMATISM ARRESTED
"Many people suffer the tortures of
lame muscles and stiffened joints because
of impurities in the blood, and each suc
ceeding attack seems more acute until
rheumatism has invaded the whole system.
To arrest rheumatism it is quite as im
portant to improve your general health as
to purify your blood, and the cod liver oil
while its medicinal nourishment
strengthens the organs to expel the
impurities and upbuild your strength.

Cline Falls Electric
Plant is Completed
The installation of the new elec
tric plant at Cline Falls, which is to
be used as an auxiliary to the Cove
plant of the Deschutes Power Com
pany, was completed last week and
water turned into the big turbine
wheel for the first time.
With this new unit, which has
been added to the old system at
Cline Falls, the plant at that place
will amply be able to take care of
the demands made upon it. One
of the principal uses the new plant
will be used for is to pump water
for irrigation purposes and the
pump will be kept going about 18
hours daily.
When the plant at the Cove is
shut down on Sunday for cleaning
up, er for any other purpose, the
new plant at Cline Falls will be
switched on, thus giving a continu
ous 24-hour service seven days in
the week.
With the installation of the new
unit to their plant the Deschutes
Power Company now has one of the
best equipped plants for electric
lighting and serving power of any
plant in the West Redmond
Spokesman.
