In portions of the ) reservation country the harvest Is nowj already over, and one machine, that j of Elmer Snyder, Is known to have ceased operations. However, It will! lake another week to finish work over' the most of that section, while north I ami west of here it is estimated that' it will require two weeks more of' threshing before the grain is all down HOTTEST COON IN DIXIE."

Title of "Wheat King of the United; States" is aptly applied to X. G. Lar Imuro of Xorth Dakota, who Is at- lending the Trans-Mississippi Com-, nierclal Congress, for on his farms 300,000 bushels of wheat Is produc ed annually, more wheat than Is ruls ed on any other one farm In the world, Says the Portland Telegram. Though he doesn't claim the title given him, Mr. Larimore says he has 15,000 acres of land in cultivation and the annual average yield Is from 18 to 20 bushels to the acre. j Mr. Larimore went Into the wheat-, growing business In 1882. Prior to that time he had been a business man In St. Louis for 35 years and Inciden tally he knew David R. Francis, pres ident of the St. Louis exposition, w hen the latter was a boy. Realizing the possibilities of the wheat-growing Industry in Dakota, he went Into the business on a large scale, breaking up new prairie land and Increasing the size of his farm as rapidly as possible until he now has 15.000 acres. As & base of supply for this large farm the village and postofflce of Larimore was established. The nenrest town of any size to the ranch Is Great Forks. Between 150 and 175 num are em ployed on this great farm the year round. To work the place Mr. Lari more uses n vast quantity of farming machinery. He has 90 binders and six threshers and a proportionate number of plows and other farm equipments. He uses 250 mules all the time. In plowing, his men start in on a plat six miles square and make one round before lunch and an other afterward. In harvesting he has machinery enough to cut 1000 ai res a day If necessity requires It. All the grain Mr. Larimore raises is spring wheat. It Is necessary to cut It a little green, then shock It to let It dry and thresh It later. "During the World's Fair at Chi cago in 1S93," said Mr. Larimore to day, "all of the foreign commission ers at the exposition came up to my place to see the farming operations. They had never seen farming on a large scale nnd were amazed at everything." ' OLD OREGON RELICS - IZliA MEEKER SHOWS 'Baker , $ PIONEER COLLECTION.

The walls of the interior are covered also with pio neer relics, some of them owned by Mr. Meeker and some the property of other pioneers or their descendants. There is a rifle brought across the plains by Mr. Meeker himself. There is a grain sickle made In 1815 and us?d in Pennsylvania, Illinois and Or egon. Also an old-fashioned thresh ing flail, which as the description says, caused the young men of 50 or 60 years ngo great discomfort. There are also many other articles, Including a saw, ax, lantern, weapons and Instruments and Implements of various kinds, all of which were brought to Oregon or made there In early times. The exhibit Is altogeth er one of unusual interest. It Is also Interesting to know that Mr. Meeker Intends to make the trip east next year by ox team, the same manner In which he crossed the plains over half a century ago. COST IS REDUCED. HOLD TO YOUR MONEY WATER TROUBLES RENEWED. Affair Is In the Courts ut HlaikfiMit. unci Crops Are Dying. A Hluckfoot special to the Salt Ijake Tribune says: j The water troubles In this vicinity have broken out afresh. A few days since the crops near Blackfoot were perishing for the want of water. Judge Budge, upon a showing made to him In the effect Hint the ranchers about Idaho Fulls were not only taking their full quota, but actually letting large quantities go to waste, ordered the hendgates of the big ditches closed fur a time to enable the ditches in this locality to fill up for a few days. Everything looked rosy, but suddonly there was a very great falling off in the volume reaching this far down, and the crops were again In Jeopardy. Today Judge Stevens cited a num ber of prominent residents In the up per part of the county to appear on Thursday and show why they should not be punished for contempt, the wa ter commissioners having discovered a number of headgatcs opened up, contrary to the order of the court a week ago. From the temper of the community and the critical condition of a number of farmers who are prac tically ruined by this Inst action. It would not be surprising If the court should he extremely severe with the offenders. Insane Patients Now Taken to Asy. 1 linn With Little Expense. ' At the last session of the leglsla-! ture, It will be remembered, the law , was finally passed authorizing the' asylum authorities to convey insane patients to the Institution from the places of their commitment, Instead of having the sheriffs deliver the! unfortunates to the Institution. ! t An effort has he-en made at each; succeeding session for the past de-( cade, but w ithout success, until this I time, nnd many will no doubt be ln-j terested In knowing the workings of it. The law went Into effect In May. and has worked well so far. not only In the mntter of humane treatment, but also in the matter of expense. As now managed, the attendants at the institutions are sent nfter pntients, and it Is shown that the cost Is only about one-half what It was un der the old 'system, says a Salem pa per. For the purpose of comparison fig ures are given below showing In the first column the cost under the old system, and In the second the cost under the new law.
