Giving Way to the Plow.
The Dntton hill, ajportion of
which lies within the city limits of
West Heppner is being plowed
and will be sown
fall.
to wheat tbia
Since the earliest recollection of
the oldest inhabitant this hill has
been covered with bunch grass
and has never been used for any
thino but crazing purposes, but
like many other portions of Mor
row county's rich soil, the bunch
grass must yield to the coming of
the white man and make place for
wheat growing which is vastly
more profitable than stockgrowing.
Next year you can stand on
M"nin street and see a wheat crop
growing within almost a stones
throw of business houses.
Mr. Dutton is beginning to be
ranked among Morrow county
big wheat misers, and while he
snys that he has been receiving a
f riir return from pasturage from lha
land nil that he could reasonably
expect, from past experience in
wheat growing, he is of the opin
ion that to sow the pasture to
wheat will bring more than double
the profits now coming from graz
ing.
He has rented the lnd to Cleve
Adkins who is allowed $2 per acre
for plowing and will also gettwo
thirds of the crop when harvested.
The field contains 800 acres, 300
acres of which will be sown this
fall.
