Harvest Season Nears End in Weston
The Weston community notes the harvest near completion with grain moving to warehouses. Kerr, Gifford & Co. bought about 6200 bushels through J H Price, and Pacific Coast Elevator Co. via Robert Jamieson about 2700 bushels since Monday. In social visits, Odd Fellows leaders from Oregon attended Weston Lodge, then ice cream and socializing followed. Mrs Bessie Blackburn’s funeral in Walla Walla drew G R McGree and family, while Miss Lessie Moorhouse of Pendleton prepares to teach near Echo and Miss Welby Wills heads to Roslyn for the winter. Public schools reopen next Monday under Prof McGee. Camp life remains popular despite cool weather.
