Oaken and Cedar Doors.
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. New North Side Residence.
i William Fitzgerald, the retired Cold
Springs farmer, who moved Into town
last spring, is building a 10-room res-
. Idence on the north side, a short dis
tance west of Walters' mill. It will
be one of the bc rosidences, though
not a pretentious one, on the north
side, having all the modern improve
ments and will be ready for occupan
cy about October 1, though perhaps
. sooner

NEBRASKA SHEEP BUYERS.
Claim That Sheep Are Held Unrea
sonably High.
C. II. Reynolds, a stockman from
Buffalo county. 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."
