A new variety of wheat that resem bles the Joluestem lias been sown on 100 acres by- George Winder at his place eight miles out from town The wheat was secured from the government sev eral years ago, but this is the first time it has been planted on & somewhat ex tensive scale,- go that a thorough test of its milling qualities can be secured.

' On the south side of the rivrrl'tha showing, is not so good because of the lack ' of cultivation and the fact that the land is of mors recent planting, but considering every thing the showing" is extremely good and is better than Other seasons. V In this section A Balcom has 700 acres of wheat and barley. The wheat will yield 13 bushela and the barley JD bushels. J. C. Williams lias 4S0 acres of the same mixture that will yield a similar number of bushels, from present pros pects. O. P. Eoberts, with his half section of club wheat, expects to secure a yield of 15 bushels. ' ; This year's barley crop Is expected to ranfra from 25 to 80 bushels an acre in the Echo section. Most of the barley was sown in the fall and this will yield the greatest crop, while the showing of the spring sown will be about five bush els less per acre. S-,. , , More spring wheat was sown in this section than for several years, owing to adverse sowing" conditions , during' ' the fall months, which made the usual al most exclusive planting of fall wheat impossible. The total acreage, however, Is greater than last season, and this is expected to make Echo one of the great primary shipping points in thfs section. The harvesting of fall wheat i a now going on and will soon become general As the work ot the combines progresses, the yields are shown to be better than first estimates. . , : - - No new wheat has been sold here be cause of the low prices in effect i Nothing- over 65c is now being offered for new club. Because of the excellence of the wreat growers believe they should J get more money. , BEST PROSPECTS IN THREE YEARS IN MORROW COUNTY By Hyman H. Cohen. " Hppner.. Or. July 8. Best prospects In throe years is the present outlook for the wheat crop In the lone "and Heppner country. ' ; The output "of hay promises to ba the heaviest ever harvested In this section of the state. Not only is a very heavy yield inr prospect, but indications are that the quality will ba far above the average. -i?-:. -"-' Wheat that was aown In the fall will produce from 15 to 80 bushels an acre in the section along tha Heppner branch and In the Eight Mile and Black Horse country. While it Is very likely that a number of fields will yield as high as SO, bushels an acre, the average for this section will scarcely run abova 18 bushels, -although soma interests are prone to estimate it as high , as SO bushela The high figures are cut down ; by poor , farming and there never was a season where this character of work, or lack; of It paid such nominal 're turns. v'..'''';,':'i..'''''V-.'" ,;''7";' ' ':y A very large percentage of this year's wheat acreage Is what ilN commonly called 'stubbled." This Is an attempt of the graingrowers to make their work lighter. Summer fallowed lands will harvest their Heaviest output in this section, from present indications. Dry Wsathsr Affect. , "Were all the wheat of Morrow plant ed durins the past fall or winter an entirely different story mtfrht be writ ten of the crop prospects but the out look would be even better than at this time.'' As has been' the case with other sections of the Pacific northwest this season, weather conditions during the period when fall seeding and bther work should have been under full motion were so dry that operations were nigh Impossible. Then came the very wet spell, which -continued for ab long . a period that operations in fall seeding were much curtailed as a result More spring seeding followed. In its hay crop alfalfa," wheat and ryt Morrow . county has complete sat isfaction. ; Being largely a livestock oountry, all interests felt tha plncH Of a very small output during tha past few seasons. Whenever livestock interests suffer, ,'then tha Heppner . country mourns, for it was this Industry that firet.,gave Heppner its prominence. Spring Wha'at Uncertain. V ; It has been .again demonstrated to the complete satisfaction- of all concerned that this section? gets best results from fall sown grain, and therefore there was murti disappointment early in the sea-' son when it became lmndsslble to sev cufa the results desired. - Just what the spring wheat crop will do this sfeason it is too early to, even make a guess. The heads are just form ing and there's no telling what will happen between now and harvest. 8pring wheat, however, in , Its present condition, is fully up to the average of former seasons,- but as has ben hereto fore stated, this is not a spring wheat, country. ; . That great : bugaboo of tha wheat grower the hot winds of midsummer always strike greater terror to the hearts of those' who have spring grain than to sowers of fall Wheat Itls when the wheat is just getting into the "dough" that tha damage Ma done by the .heat and the best of prospects can be ruined within a stngle day when the winds blow aa from a furnace. - This should not be taken to Indicate that th spring wheat crop of Morrow will not continue to meet the expecta tions of growers, because to date spring sown prospects ara better than the av erage. . "-"..',:'. Sain would Help, 'Naturally a good rain would work wonders with tha output of spring sown wheat, but fall wheat is tod far ad-, vanced to take advantage of showers at this time, and there is always a chance of Inflicting damage. - ? . Down in the Lexington oountry Wil liam Stauffer has about 1800 acres of fall wheat that la estimated by various parties to yield from 15 to CO bushels an acre, and Jce Kskelson. another prominent farmer of the same section, lias expectations of the best crop In years. W, T. Campbell, still another of the big growers of Lexington, will have a very good output this season. ".. All of the growers south from Hepp ner to the . Columbia ' river are .very thankful for present prospects, for It Is the first good putlook they have had for several seasons and to give vent to a slang phrase, they .need the money. Over, at Eight Mile, the prospects are similar to other sections of Morrow, In asmuch - as this year's outlook is the best for a term of seasona F. P. Vaughn with bis 600, acres Is expecting to harvest, more than an average crop this season, and C. C.' Jones of the same section with 800 acres of wheat is de lighted with prospects to date, although more, rains would have been quite wel oome recently, In the Hardman 'country similar con ditions 'rule, and naturally there is cause for rejoicing after recent; lean seasons. - - .-... . Ot the old crop there Is verj? little wheat remaining unsold In the territory tributary to Heppner, although , small lots are dally arriving in the city and are being Sold at present low values. : The wheat is clean. this season, and this alcne is of Considerable interest to the trade.v; No complaints, of any kind have come from - wheat growers. Last season much smut was shown,; and this forced growers to sell at prlcea that were shaded from No. 1 values. ROOSEVELTWOULD EXTEND WELCOME TO BOTH FACTIONS (Continued from Page One.) Itors will ba increased materially here after and that there will be more shades of political complexion represented here after in the Sagamore Hill powwows. ROOSEVELT TO MAKE TOUR OF INDIANA IN BEVERIDGE'S INTEREST (United Preti Leased Wire.) Indianapolis, Ind., July 8. Colonel Theodore Roosevelt it Is announced, will make a speech making tour in be half of Senator Beverldge. ' Democratic political , leaders ; in In diana have been awaiting with consider- erabls apprehension the announcement i that Roosevelt was to invade Indiana I and for some weeks past have been fig-1 uring on plans to counteract the effect of his coming, should he decide to as sist Beverldge. As a result it is prac tically .devlded that the Roosevelt tour will be followed immediately by a speech" making round 'of the .state by Governor Marshall, who will plead the cause of John W. Kern, Bryan's last vice presidential running mate, and the man who aspires to Beveridge's toga. To an outsider .this may sound like stacking a battleship with bow and ar rows, but to Hooslers it is a different matter. Marshall was forced into the governorship against his own wishes by the Indiana Democratic machine, which , was in desperate need of a com promise candidate. Marshall responded by ignoring and almost disrupting the Indiana Democratic machine and giving the state an, excellent nonpartisan ad ministration. As a result he has achieved tremendous ' popularity, and haa been mentioned frequently as a" 1912 presi dential possibility; He has studiously avoided tha limelight, but it is believed that if be sets out on the trail Of Colo nel Roosevelt to many of whoso policies he is violently oonosed. the fire will flv. Despite this, the announcement that Roosevelt is to enter the lists hera wm most Unwelcome news to the Democratic organization, The colonel has a tremen dous popularity in Indiana, where the Insurgent movement Is rapidly gaining strength!, and the fact that, he has ap parently decided to come out flat footed for .. the progressive movement wilt In crease his popularity, it Is said, . ; , ' The issue here this fail Is the election of a legislature, which will either re turn Beverldge or choose a Democratic suoeessor to him. John W. Kern, the announced choice of the state .Demo cratic convention for the aenatorahip, is looked upon as something of a chronic candtcata, and is also said to be a close ally of Thomas Taggart the erstwhile state boss, who has been practically un horsed by Governor Marshall. Kern has repudiated this Idea, and his statements will have weight added to them Should Governor Marshall enter the lists in his behalf. , '' ,, Indiana Is undoubtedly in a state of political revolt. Even the regular Re publican .leaders admit tills frankly. It Is also said that a number of the old line Fairbanks organisation men are out to knife Beverldge. Whether the revolt will be capitalised by Beverldge under tha insurgent ban ner or by Kern under the Democratic is a question admitted to hinge largely on the ability of Rooaevelt as a political prestidigitator.
