' Napol.on on Hombaok. Extraordinary were the precautions taken that Napoleon should never ap pear at a disadvantage on horseback. The emperor was not a first class horseman, and bis horses were always thoroughly broken in. Here is a de scription of the methods employed: "They were trained to remain perfect ly steady under tortures of every de scription; to receive blows about the head; drums were beaten, pistols and crackers fired In their ears, flags waved before their eyes, clumsy pack ages nnd sometimes even sheep and I pigs wero thrown between their legs. None of the animals were deemed suf ficiently trained till the emperor could without the lenst difficulty pull them up short at full gallop, which was his favorite pace." London Chronicle. Portland, Ore., Jan. 19. Counting a planting of spring wheat that will make up for the deficiency in winter acreage, and basing the outlook upon normal conditions hereafter, Oregon Washington and - Idaho will produce close to 90.000.000 bushel of wheat in 1916 by far the greatest crop on record. Unless something unforseen occurs previous to harvest, all records will likely be smashed. A most careful investigation of the winter wheat crop planting has been made hy the Journ al through over 200 special crop and regular correspondents The aggregate findings of the planting forj three states shows: f1- r 1915-16 1914-16 Oregon 870,000 acres 914,000 acres Wash i,zzo,"UU acres muu.uuu acres Idaho 400,000 acres 500,000 acres Total winter ' aoreaee 2.490.000 Z.B14.UUO The decrease in the winter wneat area is less startling tha nactual mr- gurea show. Last: eeason there, was an abnormal acreage during the. fall-, winter months; much above (that of previous ' seasons... This season's ac reage is somewhat greater, tharf nor mal, i: .-..

',?.;; ?JJos of the damage to test seasonV Wheat crop was in uie winter planting "du''lto''"lack of sufficient moisture during the winter and spring months. This winter toe entire crop nas Deen treated to a very liberal supply pt moisture wit, the greatest; amount "of snowfall in the light land section for many seasons.' ' ' . ' In Oregon laBt season most of the damage was done in light lands sec tions, and this was true tosomeex tentin Washington, although ,. Idaho suffered very little. This accounts for Oregon's poor showing as compar ed with the other two states last year. Now conditions are exceptionally good everywhere. The high price of wheat during the season is likely to aid the area of sprint: planting, and unless weabher conditions are vitterly ' out of line hereafter during the season, tlhe out look for the 1916 harvest could scarce ly be more promising.
