Mr. and Mrs. Erik Bergstrom were
Eight Mile people in the city Monday.
Mr. Bergatrom ia one of the early
pioneers of the Eight Mile country,
settline on his present farm in 1884,
which he has made one of the best
places in the county. Mr. Bergstrom
recalls that there was little farming
done in the county at that time and
the hills, were pretty well covered
with stock and lots of good bunch
grass between his place and Heppner.
He also remembers that the winter of
1884-5 Was one of heavy snow, a cov
ering of some four feet came and laid
on for many weeks, and following that
winter was pne of the best summer
easons htat he remembers since lo
cating here. Farming did not start in
the Eight Mile country in earnest un
til along about the nineties, Mr. Berg
strom states.
Mrs. Ed Kelley of Lexington went
to Pendleton Saturday to make pre
parations for entering summer school.
She took an aunt, Mrs. Mary Pearson

and little girl together for a few mo
ments at their room while she step
ped out to look at an apartment and
vpon her return found her aunt un
conscious. She immediately summon
ed a physician but the woman was

iness in the city Monday. He is some
what disappointed with the crop out
look out Hardman way, stating that
frosts undoubtedly did much damage
and the white caps loom up pretty
freely In many fiields. The weather
was backward and too cool for proper
development, but there should be a
yield around fifteen bushels at that.

Nels Johnson, farmer' of the Rock
creek country, was doing business
here on Friday. While the wheat
crop of that part of Gilliam county
and the west side of Morrow county
will be pretty light, Mr. Johnson
states they will harvest a good deal
ol grain and it will be of splendid
quality.
Report on the crop situation be
tween here and Pendleton is to the
effect that yield will be very poor
between Butter creek and Pendleton,
but there is prospect for a wonderful
yield throughout the. Pilot Rock coun
try, and beyond Pendleton, around
Adams, Athena and Freewater the
yield should be up to normal.

EXPRESSES APPRECIATION.
As a citizen, teacher and mother, I
wish to take this means of expressing
our appreciation of the efforts put
forth by the patient workers who
made the Daliy Vacation Bible school
a success this year. The cantata
nione was sufficient to demand undiv
ided attention and time and the re
sults were amazing. How many
grownups could have given that as
did taose children, without note
or word of music before them? For
this part Mrs. Loa Taylor and Mrs.
Bower deserve special praise. Per
srnally, I never saw anyone get more
eflective results from hymn practice
than did Mrs. Bower from her class
of three girls and one boy. Wo feel
sure that our daughter is wonderfully
benefitted by the work. Again, on be
half of the parents whose children
were in the school may we thank you
one and all for your untiring labor.
A MOTHER.
