II sn uifrrnrnrr 1 OREGON SIAit lltMS Ur 'Nltlitol I - NOT SO BAD AS PAINTED. Most Crops In Pendleton Section Are Turning Out Well. Pendleton Investigation of the con dition of growing wheat in various parts of Umatilla county shows the damage sustained in the March cold spell was slight. Instead of many thousand acres to reseed. as at first re ported, not more than 2,000 acres in the entire county have been reseoded. Many farmers secured seed w heat and vitrol, in many instances paying fancy prices for bluestem, which was scarce only to find that their grain was not in jured or only slightly. The only sec tion w here there was any loss was the northwestern part, where the soil is light and there was comparatively no snowfall. The scare was duo to the fact that the tops of the grain in some places was frozen, but this is consider ed a benefit instead of an injury by many, as they say that it has caused the giaiu to stool out more than other wise. The fruit is also reining out nicely and the damage will not be nearly so izreat as was feared. The peaches sul fered most, but there will be a partial crop aud unless a later frost occurs there will be a full crop of all other va rieties of fruit. TWO CENTS AN ACRE.

Pen.! let. n There is joy among sheepmen of I'matilla county over the news that the Wt naha risci vo w ill be redivtded, for it is understood that the allotment is to be ma le again. Sev eral days ago J. K. Smith received a letter from Ranger J. M . Sinils, invit ing the Oregon men to meet nt Wall Walla April 27 to consult regarding the division of the reserve. It was sup posed that the meeting would be mere ly to hear complaints, and that little or no good would result to the Oregon sheepmen. However, Pan P. Smythe, secretary of the I'matilla county usso clation, has been infoimed that the reserve was to be redivided. When the Wenaha reserve was first allotted among stockmen several months ago Oregon men complained bitterly because in making the divis ion the Oregon part of the reserve had been practically given over to Washing ton growers, thus cutting off many I'matilla county men from their sum mer ranges. There is a general belief that a more equitable division will be made this time, as the I'matiUa county men will be on hand to assert their rights. Perry Gould, pr sident of the I'ma tiUa county association, has called a meeting of that body April 2, nt which time a line of action will be. agreed upon. Oregon's Boundary Dispute.
