He housed the ma- i chines after taking caro of hia own) crop of 2'iO0 sacks of barley which was about the average for past sea- sons on the Iilomgren ranch. j J. M. Hamster's thrcshinit outfit "pulled in" Tuesday after a run of S3 days, having made an average run of about 35 acre daily. May on Ban ister is much pleased with the work of tho self-propelled combine which he put into commission this season. It marched right along, did clean acptr- nting, and gave little or no trouble. Jamea Hill, aaubstantial young farm er of Helix, was in town yesterday with Frank King aud reports the Helix harvest to have been the best on re cord. One of the largest average was had by Henry Hendricksun, M bushels to the acre from quarter sec tion. Uert Wuin cropped between v and 49 bushels per acre from 600 acre, j Mr. Hitl'a own avers? from 1760 acre ; was 40 bushels. Th;e hundred acres of the home place went no less than 52 ! bushels and boosted the total. i One of the most noteworthy barley I crops of the season was had by D, B-; Banister from the Nelson place one mile bc'.ow Athena, part of which is bottom land. The tract of 100 acres yielded between 75 and 60 bushels per acre, although half of it had been sown on spring plowing. That alfal fa helpj the soil for grain was shown by this field, as it has given three fine lnrley crops since the alfalfa wo plowed up. Mr. Banister sold hix barley at ?:3 per ton, and regardc 1916 as pretty good year. Leonard (Dumpy) Blomgren pop ular young agriculturist and baseball backstop had rather a nice little crop from dozen acres of rented land on the Anderson place in the foothill. The tract yielded 25tf sacks of wheat or somewhere around 50 bushels per acre. Dumpy is finding some use for the mathematics which he learned at O. A. C. in trying to figure how many simoleons would have flown his way if he had planted dozen dozen acrea, or a dozen dozen dozen. (Which doesn't fnUen his banking account however.) Ar an inntance of the profit in far ming operations this year, W. G. Ei tcs of Athena is credited with netting jf!)00 from only 28 acres of when! in the Wild Horse ncii;hlorhood, after hiring all the work done. Up near Avotin, in the Anatone country, Guy frhellman paid for 100 acres of land with this year'a barley crop, which Li ought f4u to the acre. He bought the land a year ago and seeded it last fail. Which reminds us that anyone who wants to trade a farm for a G. Wash, in prime condition can get a bargain by inquiring at the Leader office.

John Harder of Condon, who has just threshed the product of his broad ! acres of wheat land, says that it i doesn't pay to haul wheat with heavy i draft horses. Therefore he motored ! down to Portland last s week - and i bought a White truck. Mr. Harder figured that a four i speed truck was just the thing to ; haul heavy louds over the volcanic i ash roads iu his territory. His new truck will bo used largely in hauling ; wheat from Mr, Hardcr's farm to the railway station at Condon.
