In.-- it vintHt THE HOP OUTLOOK aV lartland Sfarehant" Observations Altar a Tour of th Waahlnglua , and Ungoa IHatriote. Captain George Pope, a Portland hop merchant, recently returned from tour of inspection of the hop fields of Washington and Oregon.- In diaouas ing the season's prospects he said: " My tonr of inspection took me through the Poyallup valley and Southern Washington, and from what I have seen the unseasonable weather has worked great hardship on the uopgrowers in both states. "Most growers have been able to ao- oomplieh very little in the way of out tivation In the Puyallup valley. There are few yards whioh have been well onltivated, because their location was favorable, as regards drainage, but in by far the greater number of yards the initial woik of raising a crop remains to be done. Some of the yards on White river look well, and the young vines are in progress of being trained but as a rnle I saw few yards wheie the voung vines were above the ground. "The Patterson yard, at Olequa, looked well; evidently much work had been done there up to date, the nature of the soil admitting cultivation Throughout the Willamette valley may say that I find the yards in more forward oondition, although quite number of growers have not yet com menced to cultivate. Tbia is notice able on low-lying ground. On the higher upland prairies the young vines are coming np strong and healthy, especially where there waa fall coltiva tion. At Hampden Grange, on Elliott Prairie, where my firm controls a large yard, we have Tines np to the wires, which are 10 feet above the the ground, bot we also have a portion of our yards where the outlook is not so reassuring, because we could not do any fall plow ing. However, from what I observed in Clackamas, Marion, Linn and Polk counties, I have come to the conclusion that we have the prospect of a very ex cellent orop, taking of course into con sideration that for the past two or three years a great number of yards have been allowed to deteiiorate on account of poor or lack of cultivation. In some sections I have noticed the young shoots are already being attacked by the aphis, but I do not attach much importance to this as a few days of hot weather is sufficient to kill off the 'gionnd crop' of this pest. It is the June-July brood of the aphis that plays such havoc in our hop fields, but as we are now having our full share of pre cipitation it is reasonable to infer that when the weather settles we shall get eur just due of sunshine and warm weather, and as we are having an ab normal amount of rain now, it is but fair to predict we shall have a corre sponding summer and fjkll of dry weather. "On the whole I am well satisfied ith the outlook, both from a mer chant's and growei's point of view. This is the situation: Should all hop growing sections of the world be equal ly well favored as Oregon and Wash ington, the production of this year's crop might oe in excess ol what ib wanted, bnt I do not look for this, as my observations for many years lead me to the conclusion that when one section is well-favored, another section suffers correspondingly, either from drouth, hail, wind, frost or aphis. The new crop will therefore come on an al most bare market, and I look for prices that will recoup the growers fur the past losses." lnanranea In Washington.

M 'w'mVS3-es O I AN UNCLE TO KITTY. 8 n N my opinion Kitty Clarke was the prettiest girl In the town ot Bran don, and Brandon waa famous for Its pretty girls. The fact that she was 13 an4 I was 40 may have Intensified her beauty to me, for I can remember now that on one or two occasions came vrry nearly marking three or four persons oft uiy list of acquaintances because they bad spoken rather slight ingly of my taste lu fumtuiua beauty, As I have stated, I was 40 aud Kitty was twonty-two years younger, but what Is a little thing like time In the consideration of a matter which lasts for eternity, as love surely does? Not Unit I was In love with Miss Clarke, but I held her In such lofty esteem that love Itself could not have been very great Improvement upon the con dition of my feellugs. As tor ber beauty, I must confess that masculine eyes 40 years old are possibly some what more susceptible to feminine beauty aged IS thnu would be true of the reverse proposition. I had kuown Kitty about a year, and being rich, as wealth Is computed towns tho size of Brandon, and Kitty being poor, as poverty la computed al most anywhere, I waa received with more enthusiasm perhaps than might have otherwise obtained. Even then there were times when I have seen Kitty smile on a nephew of mine, who was my cashier, In a fashion which forced me to wonder If she would have done ao bad he been 40 and rich, In stead of 25 and nearly as poor as she was. But I did not permit trifles ot that sort to worry me long, for I felt with the sublime faith of a man in my position that when I was ready to ask Kitty to be mine, Kitty was going to be ready and waiting to answer atlirin atlvely. There was not another girl In Bran don who wouldn't have been glad of Kitty's opportunities, and why not Klttyl "Why not, indeed 7" I chuckled, well satisfied with myself; and I went about my affairs whistling with much con tent On such occasions my nephew waa wont to look up from bla desk as 1 passed along, but he would aay noth ing. Next after Kitty my most particular admiration waa the widow Price, ber aunt, with whom she lived, and In con- Junction with whom she taught a small private school, whereby they managed to eke out a fairly comfortable exist ence in a community where existence came cheaply. Many Is the time I have intimated to aunt Price that some day life would be easier for ber, all on account of Kitty, nd It was only necessary that she wait a tittle longer with the same beau tlful patience which bad characterized ber life even when the shadows were heaviest Then I felt an overwhelm ing desire to put my arms around her plump and pretty waist and let ber rest ber tired head on the bosom of ber de voted nephew-In-law-to-be, but I al ways restrained myself, though there were times when there were tears iu her eyes, and I have observed that ben women weep they weep more satisfactorily if they have a manly bosom to sob their sorrows out upon. Incidentally I might say that Kitty's chaperon was a dozen or more years older than ber charming niece and showed very plainly In every line of ber face and graceful curve of ber fig ure where Kitty got her beauty, and this was a comfort to me, for I was fairly possessed of good looks, as had been my father and mother before me. and their brothers and sisters, so that I had an ancestral predisposition to hereditary traits along the beauty lines, as It were. One evening I called upon Kitty with my mind fully made np that I would propose to ber on that occasion, ts I had been growing more and more frequent about the Price cottage, and people would soon begin to talk open ly, as they had already begun to whis per. Dick, my nephew, was there when I arrived, but as he bad been there many times previously and always obediently arose and departed when bis nncle came, I gave the matter no thought and cheerily told the boy be might take my trap and go driving with some of his friends, as I would walk borne. When the front door closed and shortly thereafter we heard the noise of wheels dying away down the street I thought I saw a look of pain In Kit ty's face, but I did not speak of It That trap would be bers in a few months, and then the dear girl would never have to git at borne for lack of ber own vehicle. -' For an hour or more I talked to Kit ty much as I bad done on other even ings, and then I 'asked her to be my wife. ' I waited a moment when I bad asked this Important question and was sur prised that Kitty did not throw herself In my arms, or, at least with A shy blush, wait for me to take ber there. On the contrary.'sbe began to cry, add, taking me to excuse ber, she went out ef the room. I do not know that any man wbo reads this story has ever asked a wom an to marry him, and then have her walk out and leave hlra sitting alone with bis thoughts. To him I need not state how I felt; to any other It would be Impossible. Ten minutes or, perhaps, a dozen, though It seemed to be A week, bad passed and then the door opened and I arose to meet Kitty and receive ber affirmation of my suit the dear, tierv- us little creature. But It was not Kitty. "My dear madam," I stammered, as Mrs. Price entered. "Good-evening, Mr. Fllklns," respond ed Kitty's aunt coming forward with ber band extended, which I took, for, as I have previously said, I liked the widow Price. "Be seated," she added with a wave of her soft white band to ward the chair I bad just left, At the tame time seating herself in the chair Kitty had occupied. I I was entirely unbalanced by this I procedure, but I obeyed. "Will you be kind enough to ex l begun, when she Interrupted me, "It Is no more than la due you, Mr. Fllklns," she said, "uuder the very ex traordinary circumstances. Indeed Mr. Fllklns," she went on, gutting more excited every minute, "I don't see what ever possessed a man. of your age talk ns you did to a child like Kitty, You are old euough to know better, and I'm sure If I had had any idea you were not to be trusted I am very sure I never would have permitted you have seen her except in my presence, Why, you are the lust man ou earth would have thought would be making love to my niece; and Kitty thought so, too. You are old enough to be be father aud ought to be ashamed of yourself, and It was such a painful sur prise to Kitty, too." By this time I saw I had made a mis take, for I do have seiiBe enough know beans when the bag Is open, and I tried to stop Mra. Price and explain and apologize, but nothing can stop woman when she once gets a start, and the widow had It. "Why. Mr. Fllklns," she flew along, "Kitty had no more Idea of your want- Ink to marry ber than she had of the man In the moon. She never thought of you as a husband, aud she always talked to me about you aa the loveliest uncle " Stop there, madam," I thundered, rising in such majesty and might that sue was forced to silence. "Stou there. it la ber uncle I want to be. Will you" It was now the widow's turn to be embarrassed, and she broke In on me with wild Impetuosity. " I don't mean that," she exclaimed. It's Dick, your nephew. Haven't vou ever discovered that they are In lov witn eacb other? Are you blind or just piam aiupmr' uoodncss knows bow I ever did tret out of It or the widow, either, though she didn't altogtber. for she la una Mrs. Fllklns, and Dick and Kitty live Just around the corner, as happy as two noes in a noneysuckle or as their un- cie and aunt are.-Detroit Free Press LAW AS INTERpRETEO.
