Wesley W. Harrah, prominent member of the Farmers" Union, haal this year dispensed with sacks and 1 handling every bushel of his big crop in the bulk. He is thus the first farmer in Umatilla county to aban don the sack system for the elevator fcystem and he la doing it solely for the purpose of preparing the way for the universal adoption of the latter. On his Wild Horse ranch near thU city, Mr. Harrah has had constructed large concrete bins, the permanency of these structures testifying to his faith In the system which Is univer sally in use in every wheat section of the United States except the west. He built his combined harvester over, In creasing the capacity of the hoppers and reconstructing the elevator. He has three wagons with beds so built that they can be dumped by means of a rope and pulley. These wagons In turn drive beneath the spot of the machine until they are loaded and then are driven to the bins where they are dumped. The capacity of the hoppers is such as to Insure against the necessity of stopping the harvester to wait for the arrival of an empty wagon. .They will hold the grain of fifteen m'lnutes' cutting. Mr. Harrah was one of 32 farmers in the northwest, all members of the Farmers' Union, who pledged them. selves two years ago to adopt the ouik meinoa 01 nananng grain. He was the only one from Umatilla coun ty. Because they were pioneering it, all expected to lose a little money in the venture at the outset but Mr. Har rah declares he has had such success ! that he will make a saving this year. The building of elevators at Portland, j neame ana Astoria mane it possiDie for these farmers to ship their grain and have their cars readily unloaded. Throughout the middle west the system is in vogue and Mr. Harras declares It eventually means a saving og 22 cents a bushel to the farmer In the harvesting of his crop. The first saving comes In the elimination of sacks which add several cents a bushel to the cost of harvest. The hauling direct from the machine to the warehouse makes one handling of the grain serve where, under the pres ent systm of dumping an hauling from th field two are required. The labor bill Is reduced. Inasmuch as two sackmen become extraneous. They are generally high priced men, where as any man who can drive a team can drive the wagons. The elimina tion of the waste, from grain spilled by the sackmen, from broken sack." alid from the extra handling also re sults in a considerable saving. This Is all on the farmers' end of It. The handling of grain in bulk at the shipping points also results in a great saving, declares Mr. Harrah. At present there are only a few men employed In unloading cars of sacked grain and the Inevitable result Is that there Is a congestion In the yards. Cars stand for several days before be ing unloaded, resulting in demur rase charges and at the same time a shortage of cars inland. Bulk wheat can be transferred from car to eleva tor in minutes where it takes hours under the old system. Moreover, he says, a full week is now required to load a ship with a cargft of grain. In that week the ves sel probably loses half of its crew. The stevedore charges must be met. An elevator can load a ship In a few hours and but few hands are re quired. The great saving of timej naturally works, he declares, toward a reduction in shipping costs. The handling of grain in sacks also gives the buyers an accurate knowl edge of the amount of grain each farmer has, Mr. Harrah declares, and they use this knowledge to their ad vantage. They sell the sacks and the unused ones are returned. It Is a matter of addition and subtraction, therefore, for them to determine the crop of each farmer. Altogether, Mr. Harrah declares the handling of grain In bulk Is so much superior to the present system that there is no com parison. He has advocated it to the farmers for several years as an of ficial of the Farmers' Union nnd he Is demonstrating that he has the cour age of his convictions. To Buy Cfcvnlry Horn's V. R. Taylor, well known stockman of Athena, will be in Pendleton Satur day for the purpose of buying cav alry horses for the government.

No definite word has come from Perlin to give the German side of the fights which have taken place, and with the exception of a few scattering words from the German capital re garding the assault on Liege, the kais er and his commanders have been ex ceptionally silent on the accomplish ments thus far of German arms. The dispatches from Brussels, Paris and London tell of many repulses by French and Belgians. From St. Pet ersburg also come reports of the suc cess of the czar's forces which have up to this time been put In the field. That Russia really has not begun to move yet is conceded by war experts It is expected that the czar will have an enormous army in the field when mobilization has been completed. Little also has been heard from Austria. The Servians thus far have apparently met with successes against their ancient enemy and the Monte negrins also have accomplished some noteworthy achlevents In support of their Slav ally. In today's dispatches. Greece seems to be on the verge of entering the fray. This may indicate that Turkey is about to plunge in to aid Germany and Austria. Italy thus far has suc ceeded in evading hostilities but anti Austrian sentiment is said to be grow ing among the Italians and it may In the end plunge them into the war also. Japan is unofficially reported to have agreed to support England and France in oriental waters. This would mean that the mikado will op erate against German possessions on the China coast. What such a move Banks Meet War Need. BERLIN, via. London, Aug. 13. The Nord Deutsche Allgemelne Zel tung declares that Germany has suc cessfully conuered the financial dif ficulty which followed her mobiliza tion. "The Deichsbank," the newspaper adds, "came up to expectations and all the great banking institutions in Berlin and the provinces followed It. In the public interest no moratorium is desirable or necessary. The peo ple's savings of 30,000,000 marks (about $7,500,000) will be taken first All fears are unfounded that the mo bilization will interfere with the harvest" Few men appear to be as bad they reallyy are. Munrtlieim HeUi Prisoner. QUEBEC. Aug. 13. H. S. Mund heim, general manager for the Ce ment Products company of Canada, with factories on the island of Or leans, on which is the naval station for the inspection of ships, was helJ at the citadel as a prisoner of war. No explanation was given by authorities. Austrian Ambassador Goes. ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 13. The Austro-Hungarlan ambassador to Russia, accompanied by his staff and SO austrlan subjects who were resi dents In St. Petersburg, left. He is proceeding to Vienna by way of Fin land and Sweden.
