14 Capital Journal, Salem, Or., Thursday, April 13, 1950 Oregon Farmers Two Weeks Behind on Snrina Work Portland, April 13 W) Oregon's farmers are two weeks behind on their spring work. That was the highlight of today's weekly weather-crop report of the Portland weather bureau and department of agriculture for the week ending last Saturday. Cool rainy weather kept farm- ers from their fields, through most of last month and much of this. However, some field work was . done in parts of western Oregon between showers last week, and rather good progress was made in eastern Oregon the early part of the week. Then cold weather and showers (plus high-elevation snow) interrupt ed it. Although crops are getting a late start this year, they came through the winter In relatively good condition, the report said. A heavy snow blanket dur ing most of the cold weather protected fall-seeded fields and slowly rising temperatures brought gradual snow-melt and little erosion. Grains, while retarded, have good color except in some low spots where there are Indica tions of drowning out, Orchardists had varied experi ence on winter damage. Heav iest damage was reported to the peach and apricot orchards of The Dalles and Milton Free water areas. Near total loss is seen in many parts of those areas. Some eastern Oregon cherries and prunes also suffered dam age, but apples and pears seem to have been largely unscathed. But since the fruit trees are slow in starting new growth, evaluation of winter damage is difficult as yet. The department of agricul ture, in a report today, said ranges and pastures had been held back, too, by cool March weather. Little stock has been turned out because of. the slow grass growth. The weather outlook for the rest of this week: Western Oregon Mostly cloudy, with cool days and nights; intermitten rains reach ing their maximum Thursday and Friday; total amounts about average for the season. Eastern Oregon Widespread cloudiness and scattered showers in the wheat region, tending to clear near the close of the week; mild days and nights followed by warmer days and night-time frosts at higher elevations this week-end; generally adequate sunshine in the north section and ample sunshine in the south. 4-H Delegates Named Corvallis, April 13 W) Ore gon's representatives at the na tional 4-H club camp in Wash ington, D.C., June 14-21, were announced yesterday.

White Men, not Indians, Started Scalping, Congress Is Informed Washington, April 13 (U.R) Charley Grounds, a Seminole Indian has asked congress to remove from its halls a picture of an Indian scalping a white man. Grounds insisted that It wasn't true; that the white man started the acalninff. Accordingly, the Association for Indians Affairs, Inc., made a review of the history of scalp ing. Its researchers checked Smithsonian Institution publica tions as far back as 1910 and 1906 and came up with, the statement "that scalping was not general among American Indi ans before the coming of the white man." James Mooney in the "Hand book of American Indians" is sued by the Smithsonian's bu reau of ethnology in 1910 said: "Scalping was confined orig inally in North America to a limited area in the eastern Unit ed States and the lower St. Lawrence region. It was absent from New England and much of .the Atlantic coast region, and was unknown until compara tively ' recent times throughout the whole interior and plains area. It- was not found on the Pacific coast or the Canadian northwest. "Scalping In Its commonly known form was largely the re sult of the influence of white people," Georg Frederlcl wrote in the Smithsonian annual re port in 1910. "They introduced firearms, which increased the fatalities in a conflict; brought the steel knife, facilitating the taking of the scalp, and finally offered scalp premiums." Fredericl said the New Eng land Puritans in 1637 were the first to offer premiums for na tive heads and later scalps the French, offered premiums for white enemies as well as Indian scalps. Competition was keen and premiums went as high as 100 for one scalp. The English prices were higher than those of the French, Frederic! said. One Hannah Dustln, he said, was reputed to have received 90 from her colony officials for "bringing In with her own two hands the scalps of two In dian women and six children." In 1764 Gov. William Penn listed prices the state of Penn sylvania would pay for scalps. They were $134 for each male Indian scalp and $50 for the scalp of every slain squaw.
