The new doors to the front entrance of the Peoples Warehouse are a work of art, though almost severely plain. They were designed by Troutman, the architect, and built under the direc tion of Bollcrman, foreman of the Forster planing mills. They are of oak veneering upon a cedar base, natural color, and two and a half inches thick. They ar.e centered by oval plate glass. The general offect Is striking and appeals at once to the artistic sense. Extra Fine Quality of Wheat. Gideon Brown has finished thresh ing the wheat from 250 acres. The yield is but 25 bushels per acre, but the quality is very fine, bringing three cents per bushel above the reg ular quotation for red chaff. He sold it today to Byers for GO cents straight. This was grown on Mr. Brown's Tutu Ilia place. The crop was infested in places by wild clover, which unques tionably damaged it considerably. It did damage in some places, and en tirely crowded the wheat out In oth ers.

Nebraska, accompan ied by T B. Garrison, who Is cashier of the Central National Bank at Kear ney, arrived yesterday and will buy sheep in this county If they can get them at prices that will justify the in vestment Mr. Reynolds Is in the country looking nt sheep today. These men come from a county In which is fed a yearly average of 150. liuo sheep, though scarcely any sheep are produced there. The output Is of mutton sheep brought in as Blockers from the ranges of Wyoming, Mon tana. Colorado. Oregon and Wash ington and full fed In one of the finest forage producing districts in the 1'nited States. Messrs .Reynolds and Garrison are not likely to purchase here at the prices asked Just now by the sheep men for their stockers of all classes. They aver that they can get equally as good animals now In the stock yards of South Omaha that have been shipped in from sheep producing dis tricts where the farmers do not hold their stock so high as here. They are inclined to believe that after the sheepmen here have held their flocks for a few weeks longer, on feed, or have had a few experinces at shipping them themselves, they will "mellow" considerably, and be more approach able by buyers. The climate of South-Central Ne braska Is not adapted to the breeding of sheep, on account of the cold, wet storms and violent and sudden changes in the weather. FINEST WHEAI FIELDS. Sheaves of Wheat Over Five Feet Long From Hamilton Ranch. "The heaviest grain I ever saw on the reservation," is the way J. M. Bontley speaks of the grain fields south of Pendleton. "I visited the farms about eight miles south of town yesterday," ho said, "and at no place was the yield falling below 35 bushels to the acre. On the farm of John Crowe, where the grain Is so heavy that it is badly mashed down in many places, the yield Is 22 sacks to the acre. "Mr. Crowe has two combines work ing, and lie Informed me that owing, to the broken down condition of the crop he was securing only about three fourths of the grain. 'Were I to get it all," he informed me. 'the yield would run to 60 bushels.' " Mr. Bontley brought In some sheaves of wheat from the Hamilton ranch that are over five ft-ot in length. ABANDONS HIS AUTO. Caldwell Banker Finds the Roads of Umatilla Too Much for His Ma chine. Hereafter travel In the old-fashioned Pullman drawing room is good enough for Walter R. Sobree, a Cald well, Idaho, banker. No more up-to-date flying automobile rides when he attempts to go to Portland. Mr. Se bree last evening, dust covered and tired, rolled into Pendleton from Bak er City, aboard a 40-horso power Packard auto, with the vehiclo sadly In need or repairs. Last night Mr. Scbree continued on to Portland aboard the train. His chaffeur, Frank McDowell, will go to Portland the hamo way tonight and the auto will be safely stowed in the express car, "It will cost considerable to ship the machine to Portland," said Us owner, "but no more than the over land trip costs, anyway. An auto is a nice thing to have and it's very pleasant to whirl along the level streets and on the pike roads, but when it comes to the dust of Umatil la's highways, excuse me." KANSAS CAPITALIST.
