WHEAT CROP Is TESTING WELL
Helix and Athena Crops Are Also
Yielding Better Than Expected.

Pendleton, Idaho, July 3O-Wheat
that has been threshed in the vicinity
of Helix and Athena is testing extra
ordinarily well and is also yielding
better than was expected, says the
East Oregonian.
Farmers from that district are in
the city today and say that most of
the crop so far as threshed is testing
from SO to 81 and 81 pounds per bushel
and is yielding from 35 to ~ bushels
per acre.
The quality of the wheat Is excel
lent there being very little shrivc,e..
grain in it. The farmers are happily
surprised with the result Of harvest
SO far and hope to secure about the
ordinary yield after all.
Many large threshing outfits are
now at work in the wheat belt and
harvest is at the full tide. While
there is a scarcity of men, yet most of
the outfits are working full handed
and harvest will not be delayed by
the labor question.
