NEWS OF FARM AND RANGE

Fought 6OO0 Yearlinss Having
purchased 6o00 head of mixed year
lings in the southern part of Gillian
county Dan p. Smythe has returned
home. The newly purchased sheep
will be used with the Smythe Bros.
bands this summer though the weth-
ers viii be sold off during the spring.
Smythe Bros, are in the market for
more yearlings and according to the
Pendleton member of the firm the
general sheep conditions in eastern
oregon are very favorable. The sea
son has been unusually satisfactory
with the result the sheep are in fine
condition and the wool will be of a
splendid grade. 1t is the belief OF
Mr. Smythe that the woolbuyers are
playing coy with eastern Oregon just
now because they know they cannot
contract wool at prices some have
been paying elsewhere. A little later
the buyers will be duly willing to
meet the Oregon growers If they are
not at this time. Shearing on the
Smythe Bros ranches will commence
April and there will be $4,000 head
of sheep to shear. On one Arlington
ranch, that of wheelhouse & Horst,
shearing is already underway. Shear
ing in Umatilla county will not get
underway until later in April.

cent light freezes hurt their crops.
Some report indicate that consider
able damage was done but ID. c. Brow
nell of Umatilla and James Kyle of

day, are inclined to believe that no
particular harm was done.

! arrangement with the weather bureau
officials in Portland special telegraph
is frost warnings are to be sent to
Hermiston each night when there is
serious danger of frost The news
will be telephoned to the settlers who

said to be due entirely to the advance
in the price of wheat and not to i'm
provement in the market. Accord
ing to Manager Blydenstein Of the
Pendleton Roller Mills, the advance
will be good thing for the mills If
the buyers will only pay the price.
However, that is matter that re-
mains to be seen. In the event the
price of flour does not advance and
the local mill can make a good sale
on its wheat, the mill may be closed
for some time.
Rain Is Not Necessary - Though
the light rain that has fallen today
has been generally welcome to far
mers and other people rain Is not
needed at this time in the main
wheat belt of the county. according
to Tom Thompson, prominent reser-
vation farmer. Mr.. Thompson says
the wheat in his section is doing very
well and could get along without
rain at the present He would pre-
fer not to have the grain get too far
advanced just now as there is a bare
possibility of injury from frost though
there is not much danger.
Fear They Lost Out-It is reported
here that the waters of the John
Day river with all of its tributaries
has been appropriated by the state
for the John Day and Umatilla irri-
CATION projects, says the Canyon City
Eagle. Grant county will now furnish
the water for irrigation districts out
side of the county. The people here
have slept on their opportunities and
allowed others who knew their value
to grasp them.

Stories Of The Var By
 The Associated Press

in the Sandgau is quoted in the Colo gne Gazette as saying:
 "The French regularly, during an engagement, bombarded the villages for hours, maintaining a terrific fire, tactics for which the Alsacians have come to dislike them extremely. It is remarkable, moreover, how German the Alsacians have become of q sud- den. What A years failed to accomp- fish in this respect, a few hours of the European War have done.
 "The Alsacian serving in the Ger man army is doing his duty. With the spilling of blood came fraternal feel ing, best expressed, perhaps, in the saying: Our troops fought at such and such a place; lost or won at this or that point Our troops, of course, are the Germans, because the Asa clans and Lorrainers have fought where the fighting was the hottest, and now they are proud of the sacri- flee in blood and life they have made.
 Something must be said for the German volunteers. They fight well. A few thousand of them arrived just in time to participate in the rear guard action fought by the Germans after the battle of Thanh. Fresh French troops had been sent to make the best of the German retreat. But the volunteers were brave, and the French had to go back. What these young troops lack in training is dis counted by their eagerness to fight, and which seems to increase as the battle gets more desperate. There is much enthusiasm in the volunteers"
