men from all the wheat country ad
jacent, and every Idle man In tho
mining camps, and on tho road, flock
hero to begin the harvest season.
Tho use of tho combined harvester
has reduced tho former number of
harvest hands by fully one-half.

Each of theso men has a certain
number of horses to care for, as part

the advent of the steam harvester,
as a rolief from the duties of feeding
and grooming five or six horses in
tho wee sma' hours.

ANOTHER WET HARVEST.
Farmers Now Fear a Repetition of
1894, When a Large Amount of
Grain Was Spoiled In the Fields.
Many or tho prominent farmers
who have expressed themselves on
wie suujeci. rear thoi another wet
harvest season is to be experienced
In this county, from all indications, at
present.
The last wet year which visited the
Inland Empire was tho harvest of
1S94, when many thousands or bush
els of grain were spoiled in tho stack,
many thousands moro in tho sack,
after threshing, and In tho Palouso
country, many fields were not cut at
all.
The season of 18SH resembled this
year very much in tho Way the rains
continued through Juno and up Into
July. At first there was a threaten
ed drouth, many of the crops being
runuiii-ti nj- mo continued dry weath
er of Jlny. and earlv June. .Inst hr..
fore harvest tho rains set In and con
tinned In'-essantly, from July until
October with very few days of sun
shine In that entire period.
The weather Is now loo cool to
ripen wheat and tho continued rnlns
of tho past few weeks, while they
have saved the crops, aro now at tho
danger point with many fields. A
two weeks' period of warm sunshine
Is now badly needed to ripen and ma
il"'" the grain In this and adjacent
districts.
The corn crop of Umatilla and the
neei crop or union counties aro bo
Ing made by this continued rain, but
wneut can now not n onir wltlumt It
nnd must have dry, warm weather in
which to mature.
fMOt one-tenth of tho wheat
of tho county Is bolng benollted by
tho presout rain.
