THE DAILY COOS BAY TIMES, MARSHFIELD, OREGON, THURSDAY, JULY 18, 1 907.
ILIi ILLS
Grain Heaviest In 14 Years
150,000 Acres To Be
Harvested. '
HANDS ARE BADLY WEEDED
Preswit Crop Will Require Hundreds
of Laborers Good Weight
Averaged.
A special to tho Portland Tele
gram says: Harvest in Walla Walla
county commenced to day, tho sec
tion ready for harvest being In the
vicinity of Prescott. By July 20 It
Is claimed that all wheat will be out
of danger ol damage of any kind.
At present everything Is favorable
for tho harvesting of tho largest
crop of wheat in tho history of the
Walla Walla valley. From every
section of tho county comes tho re
port that grain was never bettor.
Although estimates of tho total
output this season differ greatly,
there Is every reason to bolievo that
It will amount to 5,000,000 bushels.
There arc 1G0.000 acre3 of wheat
land In Walla Walla county, and if
tho average an acre equals 35
bushels, tho total output will bo 5,
250,000 bushels. In many instances
wheat men claim that tho average
output will bo 40, 45 and 50 bushels
to tho acre and others claim that It
will be only 25, 30 or 35 bushels,
but most of these estimates are
based upon varying conditions in
different parts of tho county. Tho
largest wheat harvest this county
has ever known was 4,500,000 bush
els in 1902. One feature of the crop
this year is that on the light land
tho output will bo about as good as
on the heavy land.
Everybody concedes that all tho
wheat will bo of good weight. Last
year the average weight a bushel
was from 50 to CO pounds, but this
year it will not fail below 60 pounds.
Walla Walla's main difficulty will
be In tho harvesting. Laborers were
nover so scarce and never before
were wages so high.
Roports from Eureka Flats are
that tho crop there this year will bo
as large, if not greater, than In 1802,
the year of tho panic, when the crop
was ruined by excessive rains after
It had been cut and stacked in tho
field.
Of tho prospect for a crop this
year, S. B. Calderhbad, general agent
of tho Northern Paciilc at Walla
Walla, said:
"Never as far back as I remember
was tho prospect for a record-breaking
crop so good as It Is at tho pres
ent time. I have just returned from
a trip through Umatilla county, and
from tho reports of tho .agents in
tho northern part of the county and
from Eureka Flats, there seems to be
no time In the history of the country
when such n. crop was predicted."
M. S. Jones, local representative of
tho Pugot Sound Warehouse Co.,
makes tho assertion that tho crop
this year will not bo over 5,000,000
bushels, but It will bo of a better
grade than was ever known, and
consequently the most valuaMo in
the history of tho country. "But,"
ho added, "unless there Is some
moans devised within the next few
days to find men to harvest this crop,
tho farmers will faco a labor short
age that will be serious."
J. C. Scott, of tho Jones-Scott Com
pany, of this city, claims that the
crop on the light land will bo better
than over boforo. Frank Dement, of
Dement Bros., says that never before
was tho country so prosperous as it
will bo after tho present wheat crop
has been harvested.
BOATS WILL RACE
FOR $100 A SIDE
Launches ilunitn and Kpiess Will
Itun To Lower Hay and
Bnck.
Tho sporting fraternity of Coos
Bay will havo opportunity next Sun
day to witness a boat raco which
has boon on tapis for somo time, that
is, between two now boats recently
launched from local yards, and both
of which are speedy craft. The Ex
press, owned by Stephen Rogers, of
Coos Bay, and tho Bonita, property
of J. A. O'Kolly, will try conclusions
that day, leaving Marshfiold as a
starting point and going to Charles
ton Bay, whero they will round the
buoy.
Tho distance is something like 28
miles, and should give both boats a
flno chanco of showing their speed
and satisfying a curiosity as to which
is tho better boat. The raco is for
$100 a Bido, and it is said tho stakes
arc likely to bo Increased several
fold before tho contest comes off.
Anson Rogers', Jr., is backing the
Express and Mr. CKelly pins his
faith and coin on tho Bonita.
DELAY OPENING OF
VAUDEVILLE HOUSE
Messrs. Hagar and Avery nrc busy
arranging their vaudeville theatre on
Front street for its formal opening.
They wore disappointed In receiving
films which had been ordered to
come on tho Breakwater. Had tho
films arrived as ordered they expect
ed to open today, but owing to the
delay tho opening will scarcely be
announced for a date earlier than
Saturday, as tho material Is expect
ed to arrivo on tho Alliance, which is
duo on Friday or Saturday.
STOLE WOMEN'S JEWELRY.
New York, July 1C. Through tho
arrest of Joseph Arurck and his
wife, Lizzie, it was learned that Mra.
Charles W. Band, of Los Angeles,
Cal., was the victim of a robbery at
tho Holland House last January. The
property, which included a diamond
bracelet valued at $2000, has been
recovered from a pawnshop. The
Arureks were employes of tho Hol
land House.
