Weston to Host Blue Mountain League Hopefuls in 1910
A Weston trainload of bluestem wheat bound for Preston-Shaffer Milling in Athena arrives, purchased at about 98 cents a bushel. Market news from Portland shows a softened but sound wheat market with limited supplies and potential floor list rises later. Weston’s baseball revival sketches a Umatilla county league or independent team, listing local players and manager prospects as community enthusiasm grows. A help-wanted note ends the item, seeking an experienced ranch couple.
