T. A. Oldfather, Prop.
Professor E. B. Cnklln Will Put Up
Hay on Upper Mlnam.
Probably tho most unlquo summer
vacation to bo spent by any teacher
In Oregon, Is to be enjoyed uy t'ro
fessor E. B. Conklln. city superln
tendent of tho Pendleton public
schools.
In tho rucced mountains lying be-
tweon Covo. In Union county, and
Wallowa valley, tho Mlnam river lias
Its source. It Is known as tho most
rapid, turbulent llttlo mountain
stream in Eastern Oregon, and tho
canyons through which It runs are
almost inaccessible.
Tho country near tho headwaters
of the Mlnam is most oxcellent sum
mer range for cattle and some of tho
river bottoms widen out and form
meadows of exceptional productive
ness. Ill-
Tho only barrier to tho settlement
of tho Mlnam Is the impossibility of
nialdiifr wagon roads to It.
Professor Conklln and brothers
own a hay ranch on tho upper Ml
nam. The herd of cattle Is kept on
tho mountains all summer and Is then
fed on the river bottom during the
winter season.
The only possible way to get into
tho Conklln ranch is to go on foot or
horseback down a precipitous trail,
and two years ago a mowing machine
was packed Into the canyon on horses
and each year now a small force of
men is taken over, and tho hay crop
nut up.
This year Professor Conklln will
bo boss of the harvest gang and will
stack the hay himself.
There aro three Inducements, aside
from being a good stock country,
which make tho Mlnam an attractive
country to tho American It has tho
best trout fishing In the West, plenty
of black bear and huckleberries by
tho township.
Mrs. Conklln and tho children will
visit at tho home of her parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Otho Eckersly, of Covo,
during the summer vacation.
GERMANS IN A HURRY.
Party of Tourists Fall to Keep Their
Appointment at Walla Walla.
Thero was, perhaps, no more sadly
disappointed man in Walla Walla yes
terday, than General Agent Burns,
of tho O. II. & N., when ho learned
that tho special train bearing the
party of German agriculturists would
only tarry In Walla Wlla 25 minutes.
So much advertisement had been
given tho visit of the Germans to
Walla Walla and so much preparation
had been mado to show tho party the
city and its surroundings to the best
advantage, that the citizens were dis
gusted when the train pulled out be
fore they had rtiuoed shoulders
against tho "royal farmers."
It seems tho party had spent so
much time taking photographs of
Willamette valley hop yards, orchards
and creameries, that every stop east
or Portland was cut out to enable tho
train to reach Spokane on tlmo to
catch a special arranged for them
to Yellowstone Park.
Tho party had ngreed to visit tho
famous Blalock fruit farm and spend
a fow hours with tho joyous German
visitors at Walla Walla's saengerfest
and their short stop was a disappoint
ment all around.
Their inspection of Umatilla coun
ty consisted In peeking through
coach windows at tho passing tele
graph polos and so Walla Walla Is
not alono in her sorrow.
