MORE OBSERVATIONS BY
THE ELLA SHEEPHERDER
(Alex Lindsay, lone.)
While out with the lone demon
strating weeder on the Poe & Thomp
son ranch, known as the Stoops place
the writer had his first experience
with what seemed to him to be a Ger-
, man tank, making a bee line to be
gin operations by first attacking and
annihilating the weeder, and then
proceed over the hill and attack lone.
There seems nothing Impossible, Mr.
Editor, with the Kaiser; it is his de
light to strike a blow where it is least
expected and mutilate as many inno
cent women and children as he can,
and just on such days as this when
people will be collected from far and
near to watch the sun's eclipse. But
Insead of being a German tank and a
foe, it was a Holt caterpillar, and it
had come to plow the field that I had
Just about weeded.
To a canny Scotchman, that had
been almost rai.sed between the stilts
of an Old Oounry plow, this was a
sight long to be remembered. I have
a recollection of the steam plow in
the Old Country when I was a young
ster, but it was operated by two trac
tion engines, one at either end of the
field. They eat stalonary while the
plow was pulled from end to end by
a cable. But most of the farmers,
were very skeptical at that time about ,
how the ground should be plowed. j
In those days it was mostly plowed
by foot burners and I imagine what
some of the Old Country farmers
would think about a caterpillar,
where they were so particular about
plowing the ground 6 inches by 9
Inches and corner up, but that was
the days of Auld Lang Syne.
I will give the Kaiser a rent and
try and pass my opinion on a cater
pillar. I don't know whether It got
its name from the caterpillar or not,
but It surely crawls and I and the
wcader took to fresh pasture just
acrcs the fence. I always had my
doubts if the work could please a
Scotchman that had rccived his train
ing behind a Scotch plow with Jock
and Jean that moved like a snail on !
a gallop, but a glance from behind
the cat dirpcllcd my prejudice, if ij
had any, against these new fangled !
ways of plowing. Here were plows!
lining it up just like a ribbon and
not only cutting the ground 6 by 9
but 10 by 16 indies and making beau
tiful work, turning over 2 furrows
each round of the field. This may
sound like a fish story to a Scotchman
if he had never seen one of these
work, and besides the ploughs he had
3 packers behind. The average Ore
gonian of 25 years ago would have

said like myse'.f. you are plowing too
deep, but the answer I got from Mr.
Poe was, "this land plowed that deep
ought to raise wheat." I didn't dis
pute his word, for its wheat we need
if we ever expect to bag the Kaiser.
Taking a few notes as the cat
crawls along, I got over the fence
humming to myself "The Days of
Auld Lang Syne," for then any coun
try clod hopper could held the plow.
I don t kiow how I would feel en a
cat but judging from the way It kept
the engineer handling levers and us
ing the steering wheel I concluded
that it was his business, and that 1.
for one, would not exchange Jobs
with him.
At the noon hour I had the pleas
ure of meeting the engineer. H. J
Dana, a graduate of Washington
State College, Pullman, Wash., a
young man of very pleasing appear
ance, of a quiet disposition, who
frankly gave me the information that
I might ask about the cat, and 1 con
sider the half hour I talked with him
was very interesting. His u'o'.c amir,
tant and plow tender is John "las-it
a Scotchman and typical "chip off the
old block." John is doing good
work. That afternoon this m i-hine
never made a stop unless changing
gears. Jntt think or it, pulling 12
plows and not a wet hair on it, when
I am sure the thermometer stood a
bout 100 in the shade. If by hearing
people talk, and being myself jesi a
little prejudiced a, a plowman of iiie
old school, I frankly admit that I u:id
my old Scotch plow are back num
bers. The last plowing I did in Scot
land was about 18S6. They may be
nulling their plows there now by air
planes. It wouldn't be of much interest for
me to try and describe a caterpillar,
i'ir it simply looks to me like a con
glomeration of small pieces of steel,
a mass of bnlts and burrs, sprocket
wheels and sprocket chains, all being
propelled by a gas engine on the sec
jnd deck, with a periscope projecting
from the upper deck. This periscope
the operator seems to watch very
close when he is starting up and how
much of a radius it takes in I do not
know. But how different this cater
pillar looks from the old Clayton &
Shuttworth portable engine I used to
lun in 1879.
Now Kaiser Bill has also been look
ing through a periscope, after having
completed one that took in the whole
world about the year 1914. He grin
ned and snapped his teeth like a hun
gry coyote, a traitor and deceiver, a
false teacher of his own countrymen.
He looks through his periscope again
and everything looks so near he starts
ike a hungry wolf to have dinner in
Paris and supper in London. In his
iniagiation he has captured the Brit
ish fleet and to pay off an old score
.hat happened in Manila Bay, he
itarU- for America. America can do
nothing he imagines, and he could see
through his periscope that he would
catch them napping. Yes, he could
avtn see the big grain fields around
Ella growing up in mustard and fig
ured they would be quite an asset to
his exchequer. But Kaiser Bill you
have aroused the shepherds of Ella
since 1914. Then all he was suppos
ed to know was to eat the best mut
ton chops and throw the rest to his
dogs; herd sheep year in and year
jut and at the end of each six months
turn his wages over to Mr. Busch for i
a few drinks of beer and then finally
lils hard earned gold landed in the
Kaiser's exchequer. A herder in
these days was not allowed to read
while out with sheep.
Today he will find things different
in Ella. The shepherds are studying
books ranging from a ten cent dio
'innary to the oldest history in exis
tence, and so far they have not found
out that might shall prevail against
right. If history is true, the peoples
of olden times seemed to put consid
erable faith in shepherds as they were
leaders of the flock.
Kaiser Bill you will find us a pa
triotic bunch of shepherds around Kl
la. We are living on bone soup and
hard taek, and if you want a square
meal like we used to have you will
find Ella wheat flour and Ella nifhton
chops behind the Yankee Hues In
France. I am sure they will give you
a hot and grand reception.
