Thompson, treasurer of the federal Und bank at Spokane, and a brother-in-law of Senator Stanfield, wai registered at the Imperial hotel yesterday. "General condition! over the district, Oregon, Washington, Ida ho and Montana, are much better than a year ago," he aaid. "Collec tion! are eaiier. Especially in Mon tana, which hai been in a bad con dition, ii improvement marked. Far mer! in eaitern Oregon and aouthern Idaho were hurt last aeason by a shortage of water, with the exception of those in the Warm Springe irriga tion diitriet 1A Oregon, the Twin Fall! district in Idaho. In the for mer district they had water to sell, while in the latter the aupply was ample." The land bank makes farm loans through 607 farm loan associa tions in the four states, and Mr. Thompson, with C. 1. Jewett, secre tary, and A. W. Cauthorn, Portland director, will spend the next two weeks eonfering with officials of Ore gon associations. Monday and Tues day they will meet in Medford; Wed nesday and Thursday in Eugene, and Saturday In Portland. Next week they will hold two-day meetings In The Dalles and Pendleton. Needs and problems of the associations will be taken up and surveys will be made of business done by them during the past year. Oregonian. Charley Erwin, who farms exten sively south of Jordan Siding on Rhea creek, is preparing to re-seed. He Is convinced that the greater por tion of his fall seeding was killed by the recent freeze up and he will take advantage of the mild weather to put more seed in the ground. In com pany with Chas. Swindig, manager of the Farmers Elevator Co. of Hepu ner, Mr. Erwin was over a goodly portion of the wheat growing section north of Lexington and lone, and south of Willow creek to the borders of the Eight Mile section on Mon day. Much grain was found to have been killed in the opinion of these gentlemen in the lone and Lexington country, but they are of the opinion that little damage was done farther south. T. M. Benedict of Lyle, Wash., was a visitor here on Tuesday. Mr. Ben edict has quite a tract of land near Lyle where he has resided for the past five years. He still owns the wheat farm on which he lived for many years while a resident of Mor row county, which is located south of Morgan, and he was here this week looking after business interests of the estate of hie wife who passed away some four months ago. H. It. Smith of the Eight Mile sec tion was here on business Monday. He is very optimistic concerning re ported injury to the wheat fields. He can scarcely credit the early reports of serious damage, and believes that half a stand of winter wheat would be more profitable that re-sccding to spring wheat. But he does not con sider it probable that many fields will be reduced to half a stand. Con don Globe-Times.
