HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, JULY 28, 1927. PAGE FIVE Friday, Saturday and Sunday were three hot days in this section. At Heppner the thermometer reached 101 on Saturday, and was near that point on Sunday. Reports from the Hardman section are to the effect that Borne fields of grain have suf fered from this heat wave as much of the wheat had not sufficiently ma tured to be out of danger of extreme hot weather. Just how extensive this injury has been we are not able to state but this will be revealed later. The grain was maturing in fine shape and just a few more days of milder weather and the danger mark would have been parsed. A. W. Cobb, formerly of Boardman, where he had a tract of some 55 acres on the project, later of Portland, but just recently arrived back in Oregon from a stay of some time in Califor nia about the Bay region, was in Heppner Tuesday. Mr. Cobb, after leaving Boardman, was engaged for some time with the state highway de partment and was stationed at Ar lington. He is here now to visit his children, a son at Enterprise and a daughter at Yakima, and of course could not forego a visit to Heppner, where he was greeted by numerous friends. Reports from the lone section still hold up regarding the yield of wheat being harvested. Most of these, how ever, have been from the north side, and as harvesting is getting under way now south of lone, the same good reports are coming in. We were re liably informed on Saturday that Johnnie McDevitt, who farms the Schrivcr place, is gathering in his wheat at the rate of 40 bushels to the acre, and the place is turning off one of the heaviest crops in the his tory of that section. The combine of Carlson Bros, and Jess Warfield started operations on Monday in the fields of Mrs. Ander son. No report as to yield has been received from the boys, but they ex pect to harvest lots of good wheat. Sir. Warfield is farming the Ernest Lundell place and the prospects are splendid, while the Carlson boys will have their usual good harvest. Mrs. Warfield, who was in the city Mon day, looks for good yields all over that part of the county. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Schwarz, Alex Cornctt and Leonard Schwarz and Miss Mary Crawford made up an auto party that motored to Alderdale, Wn.t on Sunday, where they met the fam ily of E. R. Merritt from Wapato and enjoyed the day along the banks of the Columbia. Earl Merritt returned to Heppner with them and will work here during the harvest season, hav ing secured a place with the Staple ton crew on the Bell place in Black horse. Cashier Hill of the Lexington State bank whs doing business here Mon day. Trucks are making lively trips to town from the many wheat fields right now, and some three thousand sacks per day are being received at the warehouses. This is only the be ginning, and when harvest is fully under way and hauling really begins, Lexington will indeed be a lively cen ter. Mrs. T. J. Humphreys departed last evening for Portland and Eugene on a short vacation. She will be later joined by her son, Roland Humphreys, instructor in U. of 0., and her daugh ter, Miss Leta Humphreys, head of the laboratory department of Pacific Christian hospital, who will return home with her and spend their vaca tion season here.

Engleman. whose farm lies some eight or nine miles southwest, of lone, was in the city on Saturday to get some extras for his combine. He was expecting to start harvesting the first of this week and is looking forward to a fine yield of grain. Mr. Engle man thought that many of his neigh bors would be starting up their ma chines the first of the present week also. Mr. and Mrs. M. E. Cottffr of lone were Saturday visitors in this city. They report quite a bit of bustle and activity in the Wheat City just now, owing to the large number of people coming in to work during harvest, and the other activities of the sea son. Grain is coming into the ware houses quite lively now. Lawrence Redding of Eight Mile was in town a short time yesterday forenoon, getting some extras for his combine. He expected to have the machine in the field and running last evening. While his grain may have been pinched a little by the hot wave, it is not hurt seriously and the yield will be good. Albert Adkins drove to Portland on Friday night, accompanied by Earl Gordon. Mr. Adkins returned home Sunday with his family who have been spending some time at Gresham, while their little daughter was being treated in the city for diabetes.
