HIGHER PRICES EXPECTED Flour Mills Still Closed Because of Inability of Mill Men and Grain Dealers' to Agree on Price of Wheat. MILTON. Or., Aug. 15. (Special.)-To-day's work practically closes the wheat harvest season in Umatilla County, ex cept a few scattered farm of Spring; wheat and oats in the foothills. Taking: It as a whole, this season's harvest has been one of the best ever recorded among the farmers in this vicinity. Although" It was feared early in the sea son that the yield in this vicinity would fall somewhat short, figures which have been received from various parts of the county place the yield somewhere be tween 4.0no.000 and 5.0no.X) bushels. Many fields have yielded better than 60 bush els, while the average has been between 35 and 40 bushels. Present prices and the good yield of crops has placed the value of all the wheat farms in the Umatilla and Walla Walla Counties so high that It Is impossible for a person to buy a wheat ranch, much less lease one. Market conditions here, as well as else where, are practically at a standstill, buyers claiming that present prices will not Justify speculation, and millers al leging quotations now to be higher than they will be within a few weeks, but there are few if any of the growers who hold this opinion, although some are forced to sell at what they consider below the price which the wheat Is worth, on account of financial condition, but this latter class is not large. Flour Mills Still Closed. Flour mills are only working a partial shift, and orders are not coming in fast. The Peacock Milling Company, which owns and operates both the Peacock and Eagle Mills, 300 and 400 barrels' capacity respectively, have been shut down most all Summer until the last few days, when the Eaele mill was started on export flour. It Is not thought the Peacock will commence grinding until grain quotations are lowered. The Miller Brothers' mill, which usually runs continuously from the beginning of harvest until late In the season, has not even started, although it has not a pound of flour on hand. This fact is due largely to the Inability of the millers and growers to come together on prices. , ,The dullness in buying and selling has consequently made a busy season for the warehouses. Wherever possible, the great bulk of the grain Is stored in the ware houses owned by the farmers, although in many places, where the Kerr-Gifford and other buying companies have houses, and the farmers none, the latter are stor ing Just the same. ; There Is probably no place In the United States where wheat-growing, from the time it Is placed in the ground until it Is ground into flour. Is handled more sci entifically than it is In the wheat-growing belt of Umatilla and Walla Walla Counties. Steam plows are used in plow ing, harrowing and seeding the ground, and when harvest time comes, the dig ging tools are detached from the engine and a huge combined harvester, which cuts, threshes and sacks the grain at the same time. Is placed in its stead. Sacked Wheat Piled High. Some places small combines are used more generally than the steam' harvest ers, because of their adaptation to the small farmer. A steam combine will cut a swath from 24 to 28 feet in width, or 70 to 90 acres a day,- yielding from 1000 to 1S00 sacks In the same length of time. The grain Is piled in groups of five and six sacks and left in the field until picked up by the wheat-haulers. These convey the grain by six and eight-horse teams to the warehouses, where It Is piled In olid pile of 25 sacks high and as much as 100 yards In length by 40 and 50 In width. A steam or electric hoist is used In throwing the sacks on the top of the pile, which greatly facilitates the hand ling of the grain. ENGINES REPLACE HORSES Xew Method of Transporting lum ber From Mills to Railroad. GRANTS PASS. Or.. Aug. 15. (Spe cial.) The lumber Industry of this place has received an advance movement that will entirely revolutionize the business from an economical standpoint. This innovation has been brought about by Spaulding Bros., who have received a heavy "traction engine with four trucks which will carry between 40.000- and 50. 000 feet of lumber direct from the mills to the factories and railroad at this place. The outfit is an investment of $10,000. but the owners will save from 14 to to a thousand on lumber that is to be hauled. The ponderous machine and its heavy trucks will be operated between Grants Pass and Love's Station, a distance of 1SH miles. Two men will be employed, a fireman and an engineer, and double crews will be employed for the purpose of running day and night. Heretofore teams Jiave done the hauling for t"he mills, and at a heavy cost to the lum bermen. Thjs year teams and men were so scarce that it became necessary to pass the situation up to modern meth ods of transportation. It Is estimated that the outfit will pay for itself within two years. BANK INCREASES CAPITAL White Salmon Institution Responds to Prosperity's Call. WHITE SALMOX. Wash.. Aug. 15. (Special.) The White Salmon Valley Bank, one of the representative insti tutions of this place, has increased its capital stock from $20,000 to $25,000 and elected a new corps of officers, increasing the number of its trustees from five to seven. The members of the new board of trustees are R. Lau terbach, William Coate, George F. k Jewett. Charles R. Spencer, Teunis Wyers. Sr.. R. Field and C. M. Wolfard. The newly elected officers are Charles R. Spencer, president; C. M. Wolfard, vtce-r.resldent: George F. Jewett. sec retary, and A. C- Keefhaver. assistant cashier. The bank occupies Its own concrete rmlldlna-. and has . iusP erected a two story brick business house, which will I be used for the pcnrtolfloe.' with pro I fessional offices in the second- atory. t RAPID PROGRESS MADE ON FINE BUILDING AT -SALEM. mil .:.... .: : ...... VIEW OF STEEI. FRAME OF NEW SALEM BLOCK. SALEM Or. Aug. 15. (Special.) The five-story steel building being erected by'the Northwest Bridge Works, of Portland, for the United States National Bank, on the corner of State and Commercial streets, is going up rapidly. The bridge company is under contract to have the ground floor in condition for the occupancy of the bank on September 1 and the entire structure ready to turn over to the owners on Decem ber 22. The building will cost complete about $100,000. It is the first steel building in Salem, the first building over three stories in height, and the three-story brick torn down to make room for the steel building was the first brick building ever demolished in this city to make room for a better structure.

The mill site has been selected, and arrange ments are well under way to start work on the mill of 40,000 feet per day capacity, which will be erected this Fall. Several of the mills now run ning have a capacity of 20,000 feet daily, and when all are in operation the comblnedcut will be more than 30.000.000 feet per year. With $.000, 000.000 feet tributary to the town, it will take 100 years at this rate of sawing to exhaust the supply. LUZON HAS POWER PLANT Electricity Lights Town and Pumps Irrigating Water From River. LUZON, Wash., Aug. 15. (Special.) The little to-wn of Luton, 60 miles west of Pasco, on the Spokane. Portland & Seattle Railroad, is perhaps the young est town in the country which is lighted with electricity. The town is now four months old, the plats having been filed on April 5, 1909. During this time a power plant has been installed and is now being used to pump water for irriga tion as well as to furnish light and electric power for general purposes. The plant is situated on the railroad 1 4 COWLITZ COUNTY "FISHING POLE." KELSO Wash., Aug. 15. (Special.) The above photograph, taken last stump of a'cowlitx County "fishln g pole" from the Coweeman River just Is 13feet 8 Inches In diameter. 1 1 Is yeiiow fir. f . i ifv $h in such a way that the coal can be unloaded directly from car to bin, thus eliminating the expense of cartage. A' power line has been erected from the power station to the Columbia River, a distance of one mile, where an Immense pump and motor (direct con; nectlon) have been Installed. This pump was started yesterday, and moved off in response to the throw of the switch much the same as the ordinary electric fan, although it was elevating a 22-inch stream of water to a height of about 60 feet'. A pipe system has been installed consisting of a main line 22 inches in diameter, with laterals branching out in all directions like the branches of a great tree, supplying wa ter under pressure to each individual user. Not only the town but the country home will be supplied with electricity for general purposes. Here the farm er's wife will have the motor-driven churn, the electric iron, the electric fan and the electric light. A reservoir is soon to be built on a nearby hill at an elevation of 160 feet from the main street. This reservoir will be filled by means, of a motor driven pump, from a well that has al ready been tested out and found to contain an inexhaustible supply of ex cellent water.

This weather is a boon to hops," said one of the prominent growers and deal ers this evening. "The greatest danger is from honey dew, and there is less 'Of that than there was three days ago. I have Just returned from a 60-mtle trip by auto mobile, and the prospects are excel lent. The rain has helped to avert much of the danger from honey dew, and I hope the rain was general throughout the valley." Teachers Siren Certificates. ASTORIA, Or.. Aug. 15. (Special.)

Sullivan and k Party Pass Through City. PLAYGROUND IDEA PRAISED Head of Amatenr Athletics in Conn try Much Pleased at Interest in Sports Seen Through out West. James E. Sullivan,' president of the Amateur Athletic Club, paid a visit to Portland yesterday while, en route to San Francisco, "Where he Is to be the guest of tn Olympic Club tomorrow night. It was owing to this engage ment that the chief of organized amateur athletics was unable to remain longer in Portland, and he regretted his short stay as much as did the officials of the Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club, who desired to entertain him for a longer period. President Sullivan is an ardent ad mirer of the West and the Western athletes, especially those who hail from the Pacific Coast, and in referring to the Seattle meet he praised the work of the Seattle Athletic Club officials, as well as the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition, for the capable manner in which the games were handled. Accompanying Mr. Sullivan on the trip to Sani Francisco are several 4rominent figures in amateur athletics Matthew Halpin. of the Irish-American Club, and manager of the Amerkvn team at the London Olympic games; Everett C. Brown, chairman of the outdoor athletic committee of the Chicago Athletic Asso ciation, and Harry Lyons, a director of the New York Athletic Club, and several athletes. Acting on the suggestion of President Sullivan, several members of the board of directors of the Multnomah Club have announced themselves as willing to pro mote a track meet, to be held in Port land in the near future, and are awaiting the return of Frank E. Watkins, manager of the Multnomah team at Seattle, who is also a club director, and If he recom mends the holding of the meet, the club will probably announce the date Imme diately and secure as many of the en trants at Seattle as possible.
