Pierce arrives from the man’s country, loads seven six wagons with barley to transport to his reservation farm, cheaper than rail.

Not Much Land Rented at Umatilla Farm Lands
Major G W Harper reports limited land leasing on the Umatilla Indian reservation this fall. Low wheat prices deter farmers from renting, and bond requirements hinder leases. Harper expects far less land will be taken than usual, with only wheat price advances driving any rentals.
