Good Yield of Dalo Wheat.
J. B. Kennedy, the pioneer of My
rick, brought in a sample of the Dale
winter wheat from his ranch, showing
the excellent quality of the new wheat
which is now being generally Intro
duced in the north part of the county.
The wheat Is yielding 30 bushels per
acre and better and is of excellent
quality for a dry year. Mr. Kennedy
has 160 acres of this variety and is
well pleased with It He will use
more of it hereafter. His crpp is
being harvested by Alex McRae, of
Wajla Walla, who has Invented a
combined harvester of Improved type.
The machine is drawan by 20 horses
and is a 16-foot cut, and Is handled
easily by this number of horses.
Don't like Idaho Iiul.
Mr. and Mrs. Bert Stoffle came
down from Pendleton Wednesday to
visit several days among Echo friends,
says the Echo Register. Mr. Stoffle
has Just been up In the Buhl, Idaho,
irrlgat-J country. He says that v)lle
they have a good irrigation system,
they are lucking In the season and
climate. In the first place, they have
frost up to the first of July and some
times even later. The land la very
rocky and costs from 20 to $25 per
acre to clear the rocks off, and the
soil la very shallow In most places.
Of course there is some good land,
but it Is all taken up. He soys that
the Echo country Is far better com
pared to the Buhl country, for here
we have the climate, soil and market.

WHEAT RATE FROM INLAND
EMPIRE IS TOO HIGH.
Oregon Railroad Commission la Pre
imiing to Order a Reduction of
Hate No Need for Farmers to Pe
tition for Investigation as the Com
mission Will Investigate on Its Own
Authority.
Wheat growers of Oregon's inland
wheat belt may have lower freight
rates between their fields and their
market If It Is made plain to the
railroad commission that the rates
charged by the O. R. & N. are exces
sive, says the Oregon Dally Journal.
Some time ago, when the recent
rate decision was handed down by the
commission, It was Informally recom
mended to the O. R. & X. that the
rates on wheat could well be cut
down to a lower figure than Is now
charged. As yet the company has not
heeded the recommendation, and It
Is probable that an official hearing
into the question will be had In a
short time.
According to Clyde B. Aitchlson,
one of the commissioners. It is the
Intention of the commission to take
up the Investigation of the wheat tar
iffs as soon as the work of the com
mission can be shaped so that the
hearing can be held. When this Is
done an exhaustive examination into
the situation will be held, and It Is
practically certain that the Harrlman
tines will be directed to lower their
rates between eastern Oregon points
and Portland.
Fanners to Present Case.
In connection with this information
comes the story that the farmers of
Umatilla, Wasco, Sherman and Gil
Ham counties are preparing to present
their case before the commission In
an effort to secure a material reduc
tion in rates. The wheat growers' as
sociation of these counties has taken
the question In hand and has retained
James A. Fee, a well known lawyer of
Pendleton, to look after their Inter
ests. It Is understood that a petition
is being circulated for signatures, the
purpose of which is to secure a hear
ing before the commission.
"There is no need for the farmers
of eastern Oregon to go to that trou
ble," said Mr. Aitchlson this morning.
"It Is the intention of the commission
to make an investigation as soon as
possible Into the wheat rates charged
by the O. R. A N., and if this investi
gation shows the rates to be too high
the company will be asked to lower
them to a reasonable basis."
At a recent meeting of the com
mission the question of the violation
of the state 10-hour law by the O. R.
& N. was also discussed. Early In the
year the commission submitted evi
dence of the law's violation to John
Manning, then district attorney, ask
ing him to take some action.
Suit Already Instituted.
Manning pigeonholed the letters
and took no action during his term of
ofice, preferring to pass the burden
Of any such, procedure on to his suc
cessor. In the meantime, however, a
suit has been brought against General
Superintendent Buckley of the O. R.
ft N. in Umatilla county by District
Attorney G, W. Phelps on the same
charge.
This suit Is now under considera
tion by Judge Bean of Umatilla coun
ty and after discussion the commis
sion decided to wait the decision of
the Umatilla court regarding the
points of law raised by the company's
attorneys before commencing any
similar action In this county.

Portland Stations.
Rev. G. G. Haley, of Payette, last
week conducted some very satisfac
tory experiments with wireless tel
egraphy between a station he has
erected here and Council Crest sta
tion at Portland, says a Payette let
ter. He repeatedly and very clearly
received the call "P T," but owing to
Interference by lightning but shatter
ed letters of the message were dis
cernable. Rev. Haley, who Is an electrician,
built his own Instrument, which is not
of the DeForest type, but patterned
after those in use In the navy. The
Instrument was placed In position on
top of the First National bank build
ing and everything put In readiness
to receive the message, the sending
of which had been arranged for 10
o'clock. About 9:30, however, a call
evidently Intended for some other sta
tion was recorded at the station here,
but on the hour agreed the "P T"
came clearly.
