If we were a farmer, living in the

housewife and she should have 'one
to lighten her burdens.

threshing, and his grain is turning
out very well. Mr. Benge states that
his summerfallow grain was sown in
February and this Is making an aver
age yield of 25 bushels of good grain
to the acre. He is well satisfied with
results so far obtained, both as to
yield and quality, and says that his
wheat is clean and absolutely free
from smut. In fact, Mr. Benge is one
of the few farmers of the county that
never has smut and he credits this
to his system of treating the grain be
J. H. Wylahd was down from his
Rock creek ranch several days dur
ing the fore part of the week. Mr.
Wyland is one of the sufferers from
the Hardman fire, having his resi
dence and the most of its contents
destroyed. He carried a policy of in
surance which is being adjusted this
week, but this will not restore many
of the very valuable family relics that
the flames destroyed. Mr. Wyland is
loud in his praise of the good work
done by the Hardman people In sav
ing property from destruction. His
people were all at the ranch at the
time but they doubt very much if
they could have saved more of their
things had they been on the spot at
the time of the fire. The loyal work
of the Hardman citizens, big, little,
old and young, saved the town from
utter destruction.
Fred Water's oldest boy was severe
ly injured Monday, when his saddle
horse fell with him and stepped on
the boy's head. One of the horse
shoe calks went through the boy's
skull just above the ear, and as it was
feared a surgical operation might be
necessary. Dr. Tiedemann, who was
called from Fossil to doctor the boy,
had him moved to Condon that night.
Wm. Mainord In his Ford took the
doctor out to the Waters ranch near
Spray, and then took the boy, with
his parents and the doctor, to Con
don the same night. We are pleased
to learn that the lad is getting along
nicely, and that he will suffer no per
manent injury from the accident.

Mrs. R. A. Leach, accompanied by
her daughter and husband, Mr. and
Mrs. Frank Nagley, left for their Chi
cago home Tuesday after a very
pleasant visit at the home of Dr. and
Mrs. N. E. Winnard, in this city. Mrs.
Leach is a sister of Dr. Winnard and
has been visiting here for the past
four weeks. She was recently joined
by her daughter and her husband
who are on their honeymoon, making
a visit to San Francisco and numer
ous other points along the coast.
Their visit here was an enjoyable
one and they regretted keenly the
arrival of the time that they had to
depart from our little city.
A card received from Dr. A. D.
McMurdo states that he is pleasantly
located on the beach 15 miles from
the city of Tillamook at present
where he has joined his family and
is enjoying a good time. He pur
chased a new car In Portland and
went over to the beach In this. The
roads were found to be fairly good
and the scenery exquisite. At the
time of writing, the doctor says the
weather was ideal and the water fine,
from which we judge he is taking
a dally constitutional in the surf and
restoring his vigor for the more
strenuous duties of professional life
that will await his return home.
Prof. H. H. Hoffman returned Sat
urday from his extended trip which
took him through the Panama Canal
after visiting the big exposition in
San Francisco, and eventually landed

of pleasure and profit but Prof. Hoff
man is glad to be home at Heppner
again. He returned via the Canadian
Pacific, and has promised to give this
paper an extended review of the en
tire trip, which we hope to .have in
our next Issue.
