Spuds Cheaper Than Hay.

H. E. Bartholomew, well known
sheepmah. is feeding potatoes to his
sheep. says the Pendleton East Or
gonian. He finds that the sheep are
doing we'll on the unusual feed and
that all things considered 1t is cheap
er to feed potatoes than to feed hay
at the prevailing prices.
Between 5000 and 5000 sacks of
potatoes were raised last summer by
Mr.. Bartholomew and other farmers
working with him. They have sold
practically none of their stock and
cannot get 81 ssack at this time.
They are forced to- Store the spuds
and to pay high wages to men who
keep sat work sorting them. The fig
u es convince Mr. Bartholomew that
it cost s125 a sack to raise the pota-
toes and he expects to be out at least
$500 in actual cash on his potato
raising effort.
1t takes some educational work to
get sheep to eat potatoes, according
to Mr.. Bartholomew, but when they
do get accustomed to the feed they
do we'll on it. In lambing time he
will feed from one to two tons Of
spuds daily.-Echo News.

THOSE WERE THE
GOOD OLD DAYS
J. W. Reddington Remembers Old
Pals At Christmas Time and
Recalls the Old Days When
Stage Driving and In
J dian Fighting Was
In Vogue.

- nes have changed and men have
chaAsed but that old spark of friend
ship remains the same. Many years
ago Nels Magnuson. Tom Morgan and
John Watermelon Reddington
were pals of the pioneer order.
Today Mr.. Reddington is many
miles away, now living In San Diego,
California, but this last Christmas
he remembered both Tom and Nels
with a little gift, sending each a
handkerchief. Mr.. Morgan has just
returned from Pirtland and he has
handed us the following letter which
he says may interest many of the 9TH
er pioneers hereabouts.
San Diego. Calf.
Dec. 20, 1917.
Dear Old Tom:
Enclosed please find little hand
kerchief as reminder that this is
Christmas, and to remind US of the
old pioneer days when you and l and
Pioneer Wheeler were running the
stages on the Canyon City road and
did not have any handkerchiefs. and
Chief Egan and his hostile Indians
used to jump the stage and take the
buckskin sacks and empty out the
gold dust that was in them alongside
of the road. And some day when
times get better l will send you a pre-
sent worth while.
Eastern Oregon is a pretty pros
porous country now, but if it had not
been for you and other pioneers who
took their scalps in their hands when
they went in there. it would never
have been possible for white people
to get foothold there and make the
country productive.
hope that you are enjoying the
blessings of good health, and that
you still cheer up the community and
do every body good with the hearty
laugh you always had, no matter
what the weather might be, or the
surrounding discomforts.
Wishing you a merry Christmas
and many of them,
Very truly yours,
]. W. REDDINGTON.
