About a' year ago Mr. Doherty lost his home by fire, the house and all Its contents burning '.o the ground.

Mr. Doherty expects o do his own threshing this year, rue men are heading the grain at the -resent time. J. W. Sibley Is a progressive young .'armer who is making an attractive iome in the lower Strawberry sec ion. Although he was handicapped ast fall with sickness in his family ind was therefore unable to put in .Us crop until late, the grain is coni ng out good and wll make a fair yield. Mr. Sibley is not giving bis entire attention to grain growing, however, for he has one of the best gardens we have seen on the hill ands of Morrow county. Mr. Sibley is fortunate in having five valuable .ssets on his ranch: Mrs. Sibley, .hree little Slbleys and an abundance f good water. Hence the excellent garden stuff. Mr. Sibley does his tarvestlng with a combine and ex pects to get under way this week Two new farmers fa this same sec- Ion are C. Mink and his son-in-law, it. Clinger. Messrs. Mink and Clin- ,-er formerly farmed in Umatilla county, where they met with success and they are introducing the same 50od methods into their farming in .his county. Mr. Clinger bought the Albert Kerber ranch, known as the jld Newlon place and Mr. Mink bought the Anderson brothers' ranch. Mr. Mink has in 160 acres of wheat. 1a his own land and an additional 160 adjoining, which he has rented. These men are valuable additions to .he farming fraternity of Morrow county and In the tew months they have been here are already showing ..hat their methods are proper for he successful growing of crops. E. C. Miller has two threshing out fits on his fields this week. In one field his two sons are operating a two-man Deering cmbine and the wheat is making a yield of around 15 bushels. On a field of heavier grain, the Earl Warner outfit la heading And threshing and this field is making an average of better than 20 bushels per acre. Mr. Miller is very well pleased with the returns he is getting, since the grain is yield ing heavier than he had antcipated earlier In the season. Carl Marquardt and his son have in a section and a half of fine grain. What they have combined so far has been making a yield of 20 bushels, while he estimates some of it will go over that figure and some will fall short. Mr. Marquardt believes that his entire crop will average twenty bushels from present indications. J. D. Bauman, who farms about six miles below Heppner, is threshing from the header and his crop of blue stem is turning out well. A bumper crop was killed in the making here by a little hot weather and on the hill tops the grain was burned but at that Mr. Bauman has several bun dred acres on which the grain making a twenty bushel average. fOR JALE FOR SALE A few choice cows omlng fresh.
