SO BUSHELS
TO ACRE
This is the Average for a
Large Field.
Winnard Bros. are Harvesting 400
Acres That Will Make Pho.
nOmenaI Yield.

Winnard Brs. are now harvest
ing with a combine, 400 acres of
wheat that is holding up with the
phenomenal average ef so bushels
to the acre.
There is no guess work about it
for the acreage is taken from
careful measurements and wheat
actually threshed.
The filed is uniform all over and
good judges Of wheat say that the
entire 400 acres will 60 80 bushels
to the acre.
What is the matter with Morrow
county? How about Morrew
county's cheap wheat lands? Sell
ing for only SIS to $50 to the acre
and producing so bushels of No.
l wheat to the acre.
This is certainly not asking any
odds Of the far famed Umatilla or
the great Palouse wheat belt.

Kirk Jones, notorious burglar
was recently caught in Boston. He
is wanted in many cities. He was
identified by a mangled hand which
resulted from gunsbot wound re.
ceived in Portland, Oregon, many
years ago.
The management of the Burl-
ington railroad, after 20 years
of opposition, has recognized
the Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers and has signed the first
wage scale with that organization
since the great strike of the
engineers on the Burlington in
1886.
West and Miller are drilling a
10-inch artesian we'll in the rail-
road yards at Ontario for the O. R.
& N. company. They now have
the we'll to a depth of 400 feet, the
formation being similar to that at
LaGrande, where they drilled a
we'll. If they are successful in
securing an overflow, the city will
have one drilled at once.
Held up by four men at Forbes
street and Sixth avenue in the
heart of the shopping district of
Pittsburg, Pa, about 9 o'clock in
the evening, j. Fl. Zimmerman,
aged "a years, of Carrick, shot and
killed one Of his assailapts, Edward
Shields. The other men fled, but
one was arrested hclf an hour after
the shooting. He gave his name
as Jack McCarty of Chicago.
John Calberg, lneman, was
electrocuted while at his work at
Portland. The Portland Railway,
Light & Power company insists
that he died of heart failure ard
that he did not get shock that
would kill. Including Calberg, six
linemen have either been electro
cuted at their work or have "iust
died" as is claimed in the Calberg
instance, during the past Ia months
in Portland.

Rainmaker Again Employed.

II Sherman county does not havs
enough rain next year it will not hs
because the farmers are not trying.
Chas. NJ. Hatfield, new rainmaEec,
has been in the Deschutes country ex-
perimenting this year. The result Was
80 gratifying to the farmers that be has
been hired again next year.
1t is not by the old method of bouz-
harding the sky until rain falls that tue
precipitation is produced, but bv a
combination of chemical and electrical
influences. 1t is an infallible method,
its inventor claims. he made five
demonstrations in Sherman county
which makes the entire number OF hjs
experiments 4S. Not one has failed to
produce rain, says Mr.. Hatfield.
He operated in Sherman county from
May % to July % this year. Normally
the rainfall in that section is little more
than half an inch during that period
Hatfield claims to be responsible for
the increase this year, which raised ths
fall to % inches, an increase of 250
per cent.
Next year he will begin his work ia
this country on May l and continas
until July 10. The usual rainfall foe
this time of year is one inch. If he iu~
creases this one inch he gets $1,000, aud
if another half inch or more, be gets
$500.

FOR A
RAILROAD
o. X. & n. Would Build to
Heppner Coal Fields.
When Owners Agree to Develop
Mines and Mine ESQ Tons
per Day.

Facing a serious shortage in coal
supplies, the Hartman lines in
this territory are investigating
every known coal prospect of
merit within the state. An expert
is now travelling over the entire
state and is testing the coal
properties of Oregon with view
to encouraging their development,
says the Oregonian. The Harri-
man lines are vitally interested
for they are hard put to it to secure
fuel supplies for the Oregon and
Washington lines, and will them
selves be the heaviest purchasers
Of coal from the mines of the two
states.
When asked as to the probability
of aiding the Heppner coal fields
by building line to the fields, Mr..
OBrien said his company has al
ready made a proposition to provide
transportation for the Heppner
mines whenever the owners would
guarantee the production of $50
tons day. He said he believed
this output is reasonable as coal
mines OF any value can easily pro-
duce this tonnage. The trouble
with much of coal which seeks
railroad facilities, he said, is that
while, The coal is suitable for
domestic purposes, it is unsuited
to making steam.

On April Goth last the Oregonian
published a special industrial edition
devoted exclusively to the exploitation
of Oregon. 1t probably contained more
special and miscellaneous information
about Oregon than any one publication
that has ever been issued. 1t is
peculiarly useful and valuable to the
homese eker, because it gives the latest
and most relia BILE information about 80
many different subjects that the home
seeker is naturally interested in. AL
most every department of industry is
specialized, and both descriptive and
statistical information of a highly
valuable character is given exclusively
and in entertaining form.
Residents of Oregon who know it's
advantages as compared with the con-
gested and depleted East, and who still
have friends back there whom thew
would like to see here enjoying the good
things, of this favored state, can aid IN
splendid work now without cost and
very little effort. If you think yonr
friend would be interested in know
ing more about Oregon and might
eventually become a valuable citizen,
seud his name and address to the
general passenger agent of the Oregon
Railway & Navigation Company, and a
copy of this special edition, with COM
plete summary of the several subjec
treated, carefully indexed, will be mall
ed to HIM promptly. In this manner
you may be the means not only of doing
your friend good turn, bat of helping
to stimulate the growth and prosperity
of Oregon.
Don't forget that commencing
September 1st and continuing daily for
two months, tickets will be on sale at
almost every railroad station in the East
to all points in Oregon and the North
west at what has come to be popularly
known as "colonist rates" These. rates
are the cheapest general long distance
rates ever established. and enable one
to reach Oregon from any part of the
United States at but trifle more than
one cent mile. Tney are the greatest
to colonization and progressive
home building of any known agency,
and.if the restless, dissatisfied resident
of the East is made to know beforehand
the advantages he can enjoy here. the
problem is solved, and the star of the
empire will continue to move steadily
westward.
Now is the time to spread the gospel
of Oregon, so that it may be heard and
headed by the time the rates 20 into
effect. Send one name or two, OF
dozen, and you will be exerting .
worthy influence toward .the upbuilding
