Yamhlll,s OId courthouse.

When the county seat was removed
from Lafayette to McMinnville, some
wears ago, the old courthouse was
turned over to the Evangelical church
to be used for a college building, and
it was SO used up TO the time OF the
removal of the college to Dallas, when
the building was disposed of to private
parties. It is now claimed that the
ground on which the building stands
was decided with the provision that it
was to hold good only while it should
be used for county purposes, the land
and the building being donated
almost entirely by the citizens Of La
Fayette, and it is stated that the town
council will institute legal proceed
ings to recover the property.
The old building is only relic OF
bygone days in the history OF the
county and state. and is scarcely
worth the cost Of suit, but since
there is a third party to be considered
if probably cannot be avoided.-New-
berg Graphic.

First Wheat in oregon.

In his "reminiscences OF Oregon,
Hon. B. F. Nichols tells in the Laid
law Chronicle Of the first wheat raised
in Oregon: May 18th, 1916, near
where Dallas, Polk county now stands,
General Gillian seeded ten acres Of
bottom land to California spring red
wheat, from which he thrashed and
cleaned up 100 bushels Of red wheat.
The crop next year was volunteer, and
Welded over rs bushels per acre Of
California fall or white winter wheat.
The next crop, 1e4s, also yielded S2
bushels per acre. The white wheat
that was mixed with the sowing in the
first place, did not mature but spread
out over the ground, allowing the
spring wheat to be harvested the first
year, and leaving the other to grow
and mature for lS47. The third crop
was the largest of all, and all from
one seeding. A truly wonderful thing
to those who had come from the cold
bleak prairies Of northwestern Mis-
souri, and Illinois, where the ground
is covered with snow from 12 to Is
inches deep, four to six months Of the
year, and where the mercury drops to
SO degrees below zero quite often
during the winter.
