From Dufur. '
Upon our arrival at this place we
found the people pretty 'much worried
about the condition of their wheat crops.
It was thought that the wheat crop was
heavily damaged by heavy frosts. While
this was true in certain small localities,
subsequeiitexaminations and harvesting
results proved lirst reports and fears
greitly exaggerated.
We visited Wasco iu Sherman county
and there in that vicinity saw immense
wheat fields in a thriving, healthy con
dition and wheat growers getting ready
for an immense harvest.
We, however, returned to Dufur,
which vou will perhaps remember was
my home before coming to Oregon City.
Here we f und things in excellf nt con
dition and many wheat growers leady to
begin "heading" as . they call cutting
their wheat up in this secti -n. All
this is done with alargi machine, which
simply cuts off Ute head of the wheat.
There is no reaping and binding here.
The wheat is "headed" and elevated
from the machine into a large wagon,
which is driven along beside the header
as it travels around the field.. The
wheat is then hauled to stacks where it
is unloaded with a net made of rope,
which had been spread in the bottom of
the "header" wagon previous to the
loading, thus doing away , with the old
method of unloading by hand ; the nst,
load and all being hauled off the wagon
with a team of horses, which remain at.
the stack for this purpose. It takes
about five minutes and even lees to un
load. It requires, usually, two
header-' wagons to . each machine,
each wagon hauling from 40 to 50 loads
per day.
To harvest in this way )i requues 10
each machine seven men, one "header'
Iriver, two "header' wagon drivers, one
loader, who loads both wagons, two
stackers and one man to drive team tor
unloading. It requires 10 horses to op
erate the outfit : six on header, four on
each wagon and two at the Btack.
Hrank and I have been working on
the Signian ranch. They have some
700 or 800 acres of wheat.
How is the work as compared with
that in the mills at Oregon Oity? Why
it isn't to be compared. Maybe you
don't believe it but I heard a man -'kick-
inir" the other ay because they didn't
give him steady work. He said they
laid him off a couple of hours each night
and he only got in about 22 out of the
24. We have two shifts. One goes on
at 4 a. id., and the other goes on at 6 p.
l. The liist Bhift only works until 9 p.
ru. We belong to both shifts, ' Say .and
we have five meals a day j sometimes
two suppers, one in night. I heard a
man say the other day that he worked
on the eighl hour system eight bonis ia
the forenoon . and eight hours in the
aftern.ion. Now as I said before the
work is not to be c mpared. You are
not "in it" down there Wages are
fair, $150 to $4 per day with- board.
Pretty steady work too.
We coul 1 see four "header" outfits nt
work around today, besides our own.
Great preparations for threshing are go
ing on. Some eight to 10 threshing out
fits have gone by this last week, all
steam threshing outnts. Some tnresli
ing has a beady bei n done and the yield
is good running Iro.-n 25 to 4) bushels
per acre in wheat and higher in barley .
