CII A LL E Nil E FROM A POTATO G R O W E R — Mr.
Maurice Sullivan, o f Cathlamet, W. T , writes
Oct. 22d: “ I can beat Mr. George Humphrey,
your Lane county farmer, in the potato line.
His potato weighed tour pounds six ounces.
Well, I grubbed out a potato two or three days
ago that weighed five and a half pounds. I

We are further informed that cut o f twenty-five

over three pounds each, while many weighed in
the neighborhood of six pounds. “ Mr. Sulli­

spans, each about sixtv feet long, so as to place
it above reach of the highest water. This will
be a great convergence to parties on both sides
the creek during the Winter months, and it is
a matter o f wonder to us that the county has
not constructed one, for wagons as well us pe­
destrians, At tbe 'point mentioned, long since
as the travel up the creek is amply ¡tutficient to
warrant tbe necessary outlay.
D r li ..— Our streets have appeared somewhat
lively during the week from the numoer of
persons to be seen on them, yet business has
been exceedingly dull. People do not seem to
be troubled with very touch o f “ the ready,”
however much they may be -with the desire to
purchase. We presume this is attributable to
the fact that our farmers generally are keeping
back their grain in the hope of a raise in priee.
B ig R adishes .— We had laid on our table
this-wwek a radiah of Pall growth that meas­
ured thirteen inches long and twenty-one inch­
es in circumference. It had not even finished
Jls growth, and was sound and palateable. Tbe
radish was raised on the farm of Mr. B. F.
Nichols, about one mile above town, where
there is plenty more of the same kind.
t
B ear a s B ehs .— Farmers throughout this
and adjoining counties are reported to be
straining every nerve to get in their crops be­
fore tbe Winter rains set in. Tbe result of
sowing ao much Spring grain experienced by
them tbe past season has taught them a salu­
tary lesson.
G ood for S tock .— Sheriff Smith, who made
an official tour o f the county this week, informs
us that everywhere he has been grass is abun­
dant— more so thun ever before in his expe­
rience here—and stock-raisers are in fine
spirits.
