reports OF the grain yield on Ellie
lheham mountain are rather conflict
ing. Some report that the Weld of
grain is to be larger than could have
been expected considering the unfav-
oraDle season. while in other cases
where threshing has been done the
result has been below expectation. At
one time this season it was feared that
no grain at all would be harvested ON
lEllemeham. Three years in succession
lof this failure is hard knock on the
|husbandman, but those who can hold
out are bound to win in the end. for
the land will produce abundantly in a
favorable year, and there are going
to be favorable years in the future.
E. B. Gay, who ran a small cannery
last fall and put up a large quantity
OF tomatoes. informs us that the to-
mato crop in this vicinity, and espec-
tally on his place on the west side of
the 'Simiakameen river, that yielded
such an abnormal crop last year, has
been very extensively damaged this
year by blight. The ravages of blight
has not been confined to a limited
area, but has been noticeable through
out the valley and at Wenatchee. Mr..
Gay ascribes the blight to the excess
sively long hot, dry summer His con-
tention is sustained by the fact that
the blight has not affected tomato
plants that were grown in the shade.
w. H. Philpot has gone to We
natchee with his family to remain at
least during the apple picking season.
He was in town Tuesday settling up
some business affairs, and stated that
it was impossible to secure house in
Wenatchee. Moreover Mr.. PhilpOt
states that there are no camping
places within or near the town and
new corners are at loss to find a
place to lay their heads. Mr.. Philpot
put up tent on the school grounds as
a temporary expedient for a cover for
his family, but as school opens in We
natchee Monday he is again adrift and
does not know where he will strike
a location whereon to stretch canvas.
