The I'matiHa project Is a urcat
melon country, according to W, T.
Sillers, well known Hermlston far
mer who yesterday brought up the
second car of wulorm;lons shlpi'ed
from that section to Pendleton this
season. In all nine carloads of mel
ons have been shipped out of Her
mlston this year, he states, two coin
ing to this city, two to Heppner, two
to I-a Grande, one to Condon and the
eighth was distributed In jwo ton lots
among several towns. Kach car heJd
12 tons.
The Hermlston settlers are speci
alizing In Monte Chrlsto watermelons
which have been found to do best
there. The avernue harvest of mel
ons has been ten tons to the acre.
The first shipments brought 15 a ton
but the market Is lower now. How
ever, melon growing has proved very
profitable.
This has been the best year in the
history of the project says Mr Sel
lers. Four crops have already been
taken off the alfalfa lands and some
farmers will have another half crop.
The orchards are beginning to bear
and the first large shipments of
peaches were made this year. The
Jersey dairy herds are growing every
day and the dairying as well as hog
raising Industry is becoming a profit
able one.
There Is more money in the coun
try now than since the first settle
ments were made and a consequent
optimism. "The people feel better
than since the first year they came.
Then their optimism was built upon
hopes for the future. Xow It comes
from actual accomplishment," is the
wav Mr. Sellers puts It.
Mr. Sellers has been a resident of
I'matllla county for more than a
quarter of a century, having lived 12
years at Vklah. seven years at Wes
ton and more than seven years on the
project. He Is a booster for all sec
tions of the county but has a greaV
and growing faith In the west end.

WINCHESTER, Ya., Sept. 15.
Hope Heam s finger ring is In the
Jeweler's shop because the ruby set
ting was loosened by lightning. Also
he Is alive and well after one of the
most exciting experiences of his life.
having faced death in an instant's
time, when a bolt of lightning struck
In the concrete, midway between the
Deaderick and Kmpire buildings.
Mr. Heam was shocked severely
the electricity following the wiring
Into the office where he was work
ing. Stveral women In the office of
a physician next where the lightning
struck were also shocked.
The electric wires In the building
were at once ablaze. There was as
much smoke, according to the In
mates of the building, as if a two
story wooden house were burning. A
fire alarm was turned In and soon
every piece of fire-fighting appara
tus In the city was on hand to fight
the fire. A panic resulted among the
Inmates of both buildings. The ele
vators were put out of commission
by the lightning stroke and occu
pants of the building rushed down the
stairs nd on to the street. The
blazing wires at last were consumed,
with small damage to the building,
but the services of electricians were
neessary.
The force of the bolt of lightning
was shown by the hole It made In the
concrete where It struck. A hole
about two iches in diameter wa
forced through at least nine inches
of concrete, and a heavy piece of
galvanized tin was pierced. The
brick wall against which the light
ning struck was seared.

Although the Jitney fare was ten
cents, the same as the railroad, the

to reduce its fare. The trip soon be
caine a sporting proposition, the Jit
neys racing with the trains, and often
eating them to the finish.
Now It Is is announced the railroad
will be electrified and all the old
equipment replaced with modern cars
and appliances These improvements
will cost many thousands of dollars,
not counting what the rivalry already

Center, Wis., It was learned that he
waited until he was 100 years old -lie-fore
makliwr his will. He lived to be
more than 101.
One of the Interesting studies to be
taken up t under the agricultural
course at the high school Is stock
Judging. The subject deals with all
classes of livestock used and raised
about the farm.
In the work of stock Judging the
boys use the regular score cards and
JudKC the stock as If they were act
ing at a stock show. The members
are taught to tell a good work horse
from a racer, a good milk cow or a
market hog. Along with the subject
Is taken stock breeding under which :
the students are taught to breed for
what Is desired. j
Professor Gambee decided to take
this branch up seriously this year be-;
cause of the great work done by the,
boys last year when a class team
was sent to the Union stock show.
They brought back second prize with
Charlie Russell high point man and,

Itli'key Got Two lilrds. j
ST. LOUIS, Mo., Sept. 15. If ever
two birds were killed with one throw
that time was when Branch Rickey, :
of the Browns, went to Michigan last'
spring to take a look at a young
college pitcher a port hurler he
had long coveted The occasion was
a game between University of Michi
gan and Western State Normal. His
attention having been drawn to the
youngster, Rickey took "several looks.
He sat In the grandstand and saw
the plther go seven wonderful innings
In a game that ended In a ten round
0-0 score. Michigan got two hits off
the Western Normal pitcher. Those
two hits were made by the pitcher
Rickey had come to see. Four bases
were stolen by Michigan. The twirl
er Rickey had come to see stole 'em
all. Rickey signed up that twlrler,
whose name is George Sisler, right
after the game.
After signing Sisler, Rickey realiz
ed that the We.itern State Normal
twlrler hadn't done so bad with an
Inferior team behind him. That night
he signed him'too. The second bird,
also tossed 'em in from the left side.
He is Ernest Koob and his name does
not rhyme with boob. He says It's
pronounced as if spelled "Kobe."
