"The report! concerning the fruit crop are not encouraging. , The heavy raini during the time the fruit wai In blossom did most of the injury and late i routs materially assisted in culling down thcyicld. Then too many of the orchards are not properly attended to, tne old pioneer orchard lucks spraying and cultivation. Many of the corres pondents report Rome orchards as good crops, other no crop. There is - a marked absence of insects: but this can be accounted for from the tact that warm, bright lunihine is necess ary to develop thorn. In parti of Mult nomah and Clackamai counties the caterpillar ii very destructive. The nighti have been cool, hence the cod- tin moth ii not plentiful. The green and wooly aphis are reported from a lew of the counties, bat practically in sect! have done no damage to the fruit. Cherries are now ripe, and not a county reports a full average crop, an occasional section has a good crop ; but generally ineakinff the cherry crop ii from one-half a crop to practically nothing. Then hai been a very slight increaie in tho acreage of cherries. Apples sre a good crop in Lincoln, Benton, parts of Linn, Lane, Douglass and Josephine counties; other coun ties report a poor crop. The early ap ple are even ihorter in yield than lbs late applet, and it ii noted that on those tree which had a good yield lat year are very ihort this year; on a general average there will not bo over 75 per cent of an average crop of ap ples. Peaches are generally reported to be a failure; Jackson, Josephine and Douglui counties appear to have the best prospects for the peach crop, but even in these counties there will not be an average crop. Many peach trees have died from some unknown cause. The curl leaf is especially bad tbiiyear. The peach crop ii about CO per cent of an average. The acreage of peachei haa been increased quite considerably, especially 10 in the southern counties. Peers are alto a short crop. Josephine county appear! to have an average crop. Some correspondent! report the pear crop a total failure, while otbera report one-fourth to one-half a crop. The acreage of peari haa been gener ally increased. From the present out look, Oregon crops can be summed up as follows : Cereal crop an average one in yield and product. Hay crop above the average. Fruit U decidedly short crop, except prunei and berriei, prunes an average crop. Berries a largo crop. Vegetables a good crop, especially potatoes." CI.ATBKAN1E.

For the first time In in history St. Helens, on the evening of June 13th, oio itself the lionor ol reoeivini? and entertaining a representative of the United States navy. Since the first announcement tbat the monitor Mon terey was to pay a visit to the Colum bia river, great interest in the war-like visitor has been manifested by our citizens, who have awaited her arrival with eager anticipation. Intelligence that the friendly monster was actually in the river was received with exclama tions of pleasure, snd when the mighty ironelad dropped her anchors in front of this city enthusiasm was boundless. Not since the visit of the Baltimore and Charleston to the Columbia river, snd perhaDi not then, has there been ai much interest taken in any similar event. From current dispatches it was understood when the monitor left Astoria that she would come as far as Kalama and drop her anchors for the night. Realizing that this was a rare opportunity to distinguish ounelve lor hospitality and enterprise, Com mander Kempff was wired, in the name of the mayor of this city, on the morning of the 12th, to bring bis ves sel np to this city and favor us with the pleasure of entertaining himself and crew at S ball and banquet, and requested a reply. As Pilot Patterson did not board the Monterey until Thurs day morning, Captain Kempff, was un able to reply definitely to our invita tion until late in the afternoon of the day be arrived here, and his tardiness in answering precluded the possibility of making very elaborate preparations for his reception. However, by dint of lively rustling a reception committee was organized and everything possible in the short time left was done to ap propriately receive our distinguished visiton. The naval trojan had no sooner came to anchor than the steam er Cycolne, carrying the reception committee and the Ridgefield band, ran along side. The committee was oomposed of the following gentlemen : W. J. Rice, Mayor T. V. Watte, W. ii. Dolman, Dr. H. R. Cliff and 8. 0. Davis. A number of others, however, were invited to accompany the com mittee. W. H. Dolman did the honon. Captain Kempff received his visitors graciously, and with the able assistance of his officers quickly made them feel that they were among Iriends. A de lightful half honr was spent by the committee inipecting tbii truly won derful engine, at the end of which tnnea pressing invitation was extended to and accepted by Captain Kempff and his lieutenants to become onr guests and accept such hospitalities as the limited time had made it conven ient for ua to extend to them. THB BALL. The ball was purely an impromptu affair, and considered as such, was a very pleasant event. None of the ladies had more than a couple of houn notice of the bull, and were conse quently unable to make satisfactory preparations for it. The time passed enjoy-ably, however, until 12 :30 o'clock when the guests were escorted to the St. Helem Hotel, where they were banqueted and where many toasts were exchanged. Before the olucers re turned to the ship they formally in vited the citixens of the city to visit the monitor on the following day. At an early hour the next morning the naphtha launch Don Carlos arrived down from Portland, and at once be gun carrying passengers to and from Ihe ironclad. Several hundred de lighted visiton-improved the oppor tunity to see the monitor, and were welcomed by the officers and crew who took pleasure and evident pride in showing and explaining every part of the complicated . vessel to their many greatly interested guests.
