crop.
There wero grown In Umatilla
county this year a total of 8,000 acres
nf mm. which nvoraned 2D bushels
per acre. Four thousand acres of
this corn Is tributary to Athena aim
4,000 acres of It tributary to Weston.
Enterprising Farmers.
Among tho farmors growing the
largest acreage wero Charles Wilkes,
with 100 acres; Charles Drothorlng
ton, with SO; T. J. Kirk and Charles
Copplck, with 40, and many others
with 30 to 35 acres. Many of tho
small crops nvoraged 32 bushels and
T. J. Kirk's crop nvoraged 3E bush
els per acre.
The corn grown In Umatilla coun
ty Is the Dakota yellow dent vnrloty,
and tho seed was brought to this
county by Mr. Judson and It. U. Mil
ler, freight agent of tho O. It. & N.,
tlvo years ago, from North Dakota.

worth of seed among the farmers of
the county and tho acreage has 'n
creased from perhaps 60 acres flvo
years ago, to 8,000 ncres, averaging

The corn hnrvestcd In this county
this year was all first-grade and mar
ketable at tho grist mills and tho
acreage will bo Increased next year.
Tho entire crop this year wns grown
on summer fallow land and it has
proved to ho one of tho very host
crops that can be grown to rest the
land and kill out the weeds.

"'It is a very common occurrence
