Some Like 1t: Some Do Not -
Though generally considered benefit
cial at this time of the year. local
farmers differ in their views as to
the results of the rain during the last
few days. In the lighter land Sec
tions and over much of the main
wheat belt it is said the rain will be
beneficial in the extreme. Some of
the reservation farmers, however,
among them Frank Curl and Tom
Thompso look upon the rain with
misgiving. They declare it is not
needed and may get the wheat too far
advanced and subject it to injury lat
er III the spring. The rain has been
much heavier on the reservation than
in Pendleton. A report from Cayuse
