Naples, Italy -The epidemic of chol era here has attained most alarming proportions, and energetic measures are to be taken by government health officials to combat the disease. More than 100 new cases were reported to the authorities Sunday. Fifty deaths occurred within 24 hours. The government, which up to the present haa iersistenlly declined to recogniio the existence of the cholera, haa now admitted that the disease which haa caused inch havoc within the last two weeks is cholera of the violent Asistic type. An oflicial tele gram was aent to Rome stating that a shoemaker named Ernesto Vigilante was suffering from that disease. Many other rases are described by the heslth ofllcials as gastro enteritis, but tins diagnosis is not generally ac cepted.

Marshfield -The harvest of the cran berry crop in Coo county i nearly over and the yield this year i. big, One small patch yielded cranberrie at the rate of almoat $5,000 an acre. This wa on the McFarland place. It was 6 feet long and 10 feet wide and from it were taken six bushels of cran. berries. If an entire acre wa covered with vine yielding at the tame rate the acre would produce 1,633 bushel. The berrie tell for $3 a buahel thi year and thit would be yield of $4, X'JK. It costs for harvesting and for boxea a little less than $1 a bushel The average of all of the cranberry marshes in thit locality thit year will be alsiut 400 bushels an acre. Allow ing $1 a bushel for picking and pack ing, thit gives the grower a profit of Mlu an acre. Nearly all of the cranberry marshes are along North tlough, tributary to the hay, and there are hundred of acres available which have not been set out. The land must be of a peat formation. The heavy bottom lands will not do. Land which it made of decomposed vegetable matter, such aa it found in the old beds of lake, it the only kind tdaptable in thit part of the state. It must be of tuch a na turc that the water will drain through. In addition to the necessity of hav ing a certain kind of toil there must lie available a quantity of fresh water ao situated that it can be controlled and the marsh flooded when desired, The ground must be especially pre pared and made level and sanded. The exH-nse is not so much in securing the plant and setting them out aa it it in the preparation of the soil. The marshes can be started at coat of about $150 an acre if the grower un ilerstands hit business. Then it ii lour years before a good crop Is se cured. The plant live for year if tended. WHEAT FREE FROM SMUT. Most Successful Harvest in Years It Now Drawing to Close. Pendleton Probably the most suc cessful harvest season Umatilla county has ever .had it bejng brought to close. Iii those parts of the wheat belt where harvesting is done by means of the combine, harvest waa over some time ago. The season waa shorter by several days than any other ever experienced in thit part of the state. This waa probably due princi pally to the fact that there were from HO to 40 new combine harvesters and several new headers to assist in caring for the crop. One Pendleton dealer alone sold 29 combine. A second cause for a short harvest waa the ideal weather. There was but one shower during the entire season. A third cause waa the substituting in not a few instance of the steam and gasoline engine for the 20 to 30 horse teams on the combines. There has not been a aeaaon in re cent yeart when the grower had to contend with so little amut. The quality of the grain haa been of the best and tome phenomenal yieius nave been reported. Karlv season cstimatct of 6,000,000 bushels for the county have been ex ceeded. Other authoritiet tay the country'! crop fell short of the 5,000,- 1100 mark. Fully half the crop ha already been . .... Ik. n,V.Q solil. ine greater '" sold brought in the vicinity of 80 cent. FALL WHEAT TO BE TRIED. Upper Klamath Farmer Dittatitfied With Spring-Sown Wheat. L-i.m.ih Fslla That the farmer of the Upper Klamath country have come to the conclusion that they must resort to some other method to mane a suc cess of wheat raising, other man tow ing in the spring, is thown by the fact that a dozen of the largest farmers are i ..! hur and aondimr awav for nnouiiiK - fall seed wheat with which to make a test the coming aeason. They intend to sow several acrea of fall wheat and give it a thorough test. tu,.. farmers cannot successfully grow spring sown grain In the Upper ,-i ,1. .nnir nnn vesr after an- other ha been demonstrated. With an unusually wet season spring grain ill mBke good yieius, ouv wim urj season it Is invanaoiy snor lu icld it hardly worth narvetung. To Protect Forettt.

Eastern Shipments Bring Good Prices for Carloads. Medford One hundred and forty-one cart of Bartlett and other early pears have been shipped from Medford to date. The average price received ha ranged from $2.40 box to $3.60, which ia the price that John G. Gore received for a car loud of Bartlett in Chicago. Ihia price beat by Z7 cent the re turn that the Burrell orchard received at New York earlier in the season for a car, which for a time held the blue ribbon a to banner price of the year, Of the car that were shipped from Medford the Rogue River Fruit & Pro duce association thipped 73, the Bur rell orchard 47, John G. Gore 11, Hill Crest 18, Bear Creek 7, Hall 2 and AI len 2. John G. Gore't prices averaged $2.70 a box; those of the Burrell orchard $2.55 each, those ahipped by the Ro gue River Fruit & Produce association $2.50 each, and the Bear Creek orchard $2.68 per box. It cost grower from 70 cent to $1 to thip and market and about 60 cent to produce a box of pears. The price thit year were lower than last year becasue the crop wa two weeks earlier in ripening and thua waa thrown into the market before the Cal ifornia season was over. Cornice, Howells and d'Anjou pear are now being shipped. The Bosc and Winter Nellis are yet to be picked. University Open.
