Court Members Know Their Wheat; Justify Confidence Eastern Oregon wheatgrowers have placed much confidence in two wheatgrowing members of Morrow county's court, Judge Bert Johnson and Commissioner George Peck, the latter retiring as presi dent of the growers' league at the close of last week end's confer ence at The Dalles. That this confidence has not been misplaced, at least insofar as knowing their wheat is con cerned, is evidenced by results of a guessing contest. Peck guessed the exact amount of dockage on one lot of wheat for off-grade and smut, 9.5 per cent, while Johnson was but a tenth of a point off for second place on another lot for weight, ' guessing 59.7. The actual weight of this lot, 59.8 was hit by W. F. Marshall for first place. Lloyd E. Smith was second on the lot which Peck hit correctly. Smith's guess was 9.2 per cent.
