men throughout this part of tho
Btnto.
With tho continuance of tho pres
ent most fnvorablo wcntlior, Central
Oregon will have Its biggest grain
crop, IncrenHCH nvornglng upwBrda to
2li per cent over any former year.
It Is said Hint the country north
of florid will this year Imvo Its first
big crop In two years, and there Is
every Indication that this not over
estimating tho value of the crop.
Crops art) Itlpenlntf.
From Itedmond to (Sotoway tho
crops nro In various stages or rip
en lug. IlcKlnnlng at Itedmond tho
grain Is Just heading on a clean,
healthy stalk and tho stands univer
sally nro thlc'k and the ground Is
freo from weeds. There Is ovory np
poarauco that the ground which was
fliimnior fallowed Inst summer vvr.B
given mutch more attention than In
Borno former years, Tho winter
wheat and rya looks particularly
good In tho fluids near tho railroad.
Under tho prcHcnt conditions tho
g-aln can stand n long dry period
without endaugorlng tho yield. On
ly severe hot winds or hall ran do n
gront amount of damage.
Tho acrengo throughout tho Jeff
erson county grain belt Is not great
or than IiibI year because the far
mers have been unnhlo to break up
more land, but It Is estimated that
tho yield will more than mnke up
for the nvorage Increase In acreage.
The grain Melds around (.'ulver,
Madras and Metollus extend up to
the town's front door and extends
away over the rolling hills for miles
In one continuous body. Along tho
railroad the grain stands fence high,
and In a few places that can be seen
whore the grain Is shorter the heads
are long and well flllod.
(aniens tilled iimltr dry farming
methods are piospeiliiK, the potato
acreage Is said to lie considerably
lists than last eur, but that tho
yield will be iiiiiul In most cases to
that of the season of hut jenr owing
to tho prolmhlu lucreiisu general! In

All the crops are from' two to
three weeks later than last year. In
tho territory north nf Madras haying

havo been the gioutest boon to the
country and every farmer Is happy.
The tonnage to the ncro of alfalfa
nlthnugh the crop Is later than last
year Is said to be some heavier and
the nuallly better
There Is a very mldunt growing
popularity among the Jefferson coun
ty farmers for the elevators n the
method of storing their gruln. At

Tho first recorded visit to Yellow
stone park was made by John Colter In
1810. Ho was n trapper and ndveu
tuier who tools refuge thcro from hos

was discredited. Tho next recorded
visit wns by a trapper named Joseph
Meek in lSl'O, who described It as "a
country smoking w Ith vapor from boil
ing springs nnd burning with gases is
suing from smnll craters." Prom somo
of tlieso craters, he said, "Issued blue
dnmo und molten brimstone," which,
of course, was not true, though doubt
less Meek fully believed It to bo the
truth.
