They named it "End of the Trail"
because when they bought it and
moved there they decided that, it was
to be their permanent home and that
moving day was in the discard for
them. We are speaking of Mr. and
Mrs. Ellis Minor's fine ranch home
three miles below lone.
Mr. and Mrs. Minor bought the
ranch, which comprises 1400 acres
of creek bottom, wheat and range
land, some three years ago when it
was not making taxes and interest
and in that short time and through
the period of depression, they have
already put the place on a self-supporting
basis besides making many
improvements.
The place is ideal for a ranch
home and is capable of producing
almost everfthing required for a
comfortable living. All kinds of
fruit grows In abundance in the
orchard and the garden is a 'uving
in itself.
Mr. Minor is a born stockman and
farmer and he takes real pleasure
In making two blades of grass grow
vviiere only one grew before. Since
buying the place ho has built two
miles of ditch through a sand blow
where many old timers declared it
could not be dono and has the watri
running and the young alfalfa grow
ing on several acres of former sand
dunes.
Mr. Minor specializes in sheep and
early mutton lambs and he knows
the game so well that he is making
a success of the business. H' is also
branching out into wheat farming on
the upland portion of his ranch and
within a few years the Minors will
have one of the show places of the
county. A valuable asset on their
ranch is the fine grove of col ton
wood or balm trees right back of tho
house on the bank of Willow creek.
The grove is a real beauty spot and
aside from that it has furnished all
the fuel needed on the ranch for
years and every year the trees pain
over tho wood chopper.
UMATILLA WOOL SOLD
Pendleton. Umatilla county's
wool clip for 1923 of close to 1,300,
000 pounds is reported sold. Deals
involving the Fred W. Falconer and
associate interests and the Smythe
brothers were made this week. The
price ranges between 40 and 44
cents, between five and seven cents
btter than that of last year. With
the quality of the wool better than
last season, buyers have been eager
to get the clips.
A check on the sales shows that
40 per cent of the clip went to Port
land firms and 60 per cent to Bos
ton. Only a few scattered clips of
small amount are left in the entire
county. Some of the clips have been
delivered but in some camps shear
ing is only now well under way.
The clip in this county is slightly
le$s than that of last year, according
to Mac Hoke, secretary of the Ore
gon Wool Growers' association.
Nearly $500,000 is involved in the
county clip.
