VOLUNTEER CROPS.
Farmers on Richfield Tract Who
VIII Reap Without Sowing.

Duet Johnson, living out on the
butte, has 100 acres of volunteer
wheat that promises to make al
most as good crop as anything
growing on the tract. He did not
get the graincut as early last fall
uti)nile tl,e whole farming industry
aswould have been best for a re-
cord yield, and some Of the crop
shelled off in the handling, enough
to seed the place for this year. 1t
will make hIm nice sum Of money
the kind Of money that comes to
the man who has proper faith-and
hustles while his faith is work
ing.
The Johnson wheat is not the only
volunteer" crop on the tract, how
ever. On the Henderson place,
short distance northwest from
town, there is a field of as fine bar
ley as ever gladdened the heart of
the farmer. But it was not sown
this year nor last fall. 1t was pu.
in the ground year ago in May,
and as the tract had no water las.
year, was not irrigated. So it
did not come up last season. But
it is sure winner this year. From
one hill, pulled at random, % full
grown stalks have been produced
from the one seed, and there were
II heads of grain. An almost SIM
lar growth is found in the john
son wheat, as the product from one
iced, picked without special search
vas % stalks and in II
leads, one average head of which
rave SO grains
There will be some fine grain

Rains Loosen Rocks.
The wreck was caused indirectly by
the heavy rains which have prevailed
in eastern Oregon for several days
past. The freshets had loosened a
quantity of rock from the face Of a
perpendicular cliff, which lowered 200
feet above the track. and a huge
boulder weighing several tons was
precipitated onto the track, just a few
minutes before the arrival OF the ex-
