This class of tele phone lines extend out In every direc tion and every important nearby 1 point and most of the farmhouses are ronueoteil. The system also gives general satisfaction, as the operators have the system down to such per fection that messages are transferred at reasonable distances as distinctly as they are over the most modern In ' sulnted wire. I Earlv Hiatorv. The town of Helix was laid out over 20 years ago . Peter HJelsing. and D. Switzer ran the first store, a small affair with a small stock. Riley Simpson ran the first general store. James Richardson was also among the first business men. Among the old pioneets was i.inn Smith, Wil linm Scott, the Richmonds Al Grover. John Kepllnger. George Hewett. Dr. John Oris wold and othets. Wheat. While there are other resources, wheat is- the main resource from wlilili Helix draws her trade. The shipments from Helix will foot up from 375,00 to 400.000 bushels of wheat annually. John Tlmbernian is regarded as the largest Individual wheatralser In the community. There nre companies and members of one family raising wheat together that raise more wheat, but Tlmbernian has been raising wheat alone, on his own land and on leased land. It is estimated that he raised 27.000 bush els this year. There are many wheat raisers at this point, however, who raise more than 10.000 bushels annu ally and many of the larger concerns raise over 30.00 bushels annually John P. MeEachern. representing Bal four. Guthrie & Co.. of Portland, sold 220.000 wheat sacks this year, and they were all used. Each sack holds two and a quarter bushels and this would make over 500,000 bushels, Some of these sacks were sold to nheatralsers who ship from nearby warehouses on railroad, but still there were others engaged in selling sacks and the shipments ftom Helix would be difficult to estimate from this standpoint, but the warehouse re ceipts run the number up into the hundreds of thousands and there are individual shipments besides. Warehouses. Balfour, Guthrie & Co., represented y John P. MeEachern, have two warehouses at this point and the Puget Sound Warehouse Co., repre setited by A. B. Montgomery, also have two warehouses. The latters houses are located near the depot and one is 550xto feet and the other is 130x30 feet. This concern 1ms been established at Helix three years and ships annually about 175.000 bushels of grain. The Balfour, Guthrie Co.'s warehouses are respectively 235x50. and 20iixoC teet. The company ban dies annually about 18S.00O bushels of wheat. This company has been es lauiisiieti here about five years. It also has a warehouse at Vansycle, near tins place, 225.X0O feet and han dies about 130,000 bushels annually. it is represented at Vansycle by Wll l:am H. All.ee. The company also has a warehouse at Grandview 1-10x40 and handles about 30,000 bushels of grain annually. i nomas uobertson repre sents the company at. this point At Stanton, tho company is represented by L. P. Gamble, has a warehouse 150x50 feet and handled 34.000 bush els of grain this year. There is also a warehouse at Hillsdale 140x40 feet. J. C. Burke Is agent and handles about 30,000 bushels annually. Irrigation. There is a large area of land here that would be improved by irrigation, but nothing is expected from this source for a number of years. The altitude or the section Is about 1700 feet above the sea level, about 350 New Books at FRAZIER'S Confession of a Wife, by I mary Adams, tne most talk ed about book of the day.

On the Grlswom system alone it is expected to soon have about 50 patrons, which will accom modate a large number of citizens , also living adjacent to the regular patrons. All of these lines consist! of the regular barbwire. with out in-, sulators. or other process and the ser-i vice Is good. At points where lanes are reached and have to he crossed.' posts are stationed in the ground tind wires are elevated overhead con-1 Lectins with the tence wires. !t is , predicted by the patrons of this sys tem that in a few years every wire on the tences will be in use. and that the farmers throughout the country will eventually be able to lease the wires on their fences to telephone ronipanls at a good Income annually. Schools. The Helix public school is another, of Umatilla's schools that is in line , condition. The district Is out of debt, has good school property and , this Is well insured. The school board consists of Frank Richmond. chairman, D. B. Richardson and Hor- ace Walker, and S. T. Isaac is clerk The school pioperty is valued at $2500 and Is insured at $1SOO Nine month terms are taught annually and the interio' of the school rooms are made conitortable and convenient. ; The school lias no library, but is well supplied with apparatus. .Miss Emma Green, who lias taught in the school . for seven years is principal and Miss Nellie Hermlon has charge of the pri mary department.

The town has two churches, the Baptists and Christians. The Christ ian church Is an old established church, at Helix, having been organ ized more than 20 years ago. While theie has not been preaching in the building tor some time, it is now be ing ovei hauled and preparations are being made to hold services regularly. The structure cost $2500.
