and used only for transportation.
The farmer has his little gas engine
to run his farm machinery,
The combined harvester was q
great invention but the heavy ma
chimes required too many horses to
pull them about over the steel hills
A gas engine was attached to run the
machinery of the combine. Still there
was the question or keeping horses
and mules to pull the combine, and
the tractor engines, nave been built.
The tractor is used not only to pull
the combine but is utilized to plow
with. Manufacturers are now making
a self propelled combine which does
away with both tractor engine and
horses. The self-propeIled machine
has been tried out and is a success
The tractor can now Oe used for plow-
ing and general farm work. The cost
of feeding stock all curing the win

turn, rode into the Cayuse camp. He
told them that the Bannock medi-
cine men had received a message
from the Great Spirit advising them
to fight no more but to compensate
the Cayuses for the twins by a liberal
gift of ponies. The proposition was
aecepted more through fear of the
wrath of the Great Spirit than a de-
sire for gain.
The price having been fixed, the
dead were buried in a common grave,
and each tribe went its way. The
place of burial may still be seen, the
winds having so shifted the sands that
many of the bones are barred,
A Sign From Heaven.
The Bannocks departed in peace but
the trail of the Cayuses was darkened
by angry clouds from which forked

vanced to renew the battle. But ma
ture again interviewed. A heavy rain
and hail storm began and pelted the
warriors numerically, This rather
dampened their ardor for the battle
and they fell apart again.
Their hostilities having twice been
stopped by natural causes, the super
stitious Indians interpreted the oc-
curence to mean that the Great Spir-
It was displeased. Each tribe called
upon its medicine men to learn the
pleasure of the Great Spirit.
Before the Cayuse sorcers had fin
ished making medicine" horseman
was seen approaching from the Ban
mock camp. He held up one hand in
token that his mission was friendly
and, when given a like sign in re-

lightning shot fiercely athwart the
sky Thunder rolled ominously.
When the tribal oncampment place
was reached the medicine men were
told to learn the meaning of the signs
from the heavens, After time they
reported that the Great Spirit was dis
pleased because the Cayuses had per-
mitted the twins to live and that had
ordered that all future twins must be
killed at birth, or misfortune would
overtake the tribe again.
During the progress of the battle,
one band of Cayuses was driven so
far away that they pursued their way
across the Cascades and settled in the
Willamette valley on the Molalla
prairie. They became known as the
Molallas in after years but still speak
the language of the Cayuses.
