There were heavy showers In the Western Divi sion during the first decade, else where the rainfall wua light and scattered until the lust three days when copious rain put the ground In fine shape for full plowing which has been practically at a standstill on account of dry soil. Deficient moisture prevented satisfactory ger mination of late seeded grain, but early aown grain that was above ground was generally a good stand and looking fine. Pastures and range were Improved, and appeared to be furnishing sufficient feed fori stock. The long season permitted the harvesting of all late crops in prime condition." Kail KiHMilng While conditions for fall seeding have not been Ideal they have been much better than last year, and as a result, there has been a very ma terial Increase over last year In the acreage seeded to winter wheat and rye. The rains of the latter part of November and early December, followed by mild temperatures, have been very beneficial to growing j crops. While full seeding was gen erally considerably luter than usual the favorable moisture and tempera ture conditions huve developed a growth well up toward normal, which combined with the Inureused acreage, gives promise of a large winter wheat crop for 1918 harvest. Reports Indicute that the percentage increase in the rye acreage Is not aa greut as that in wheat. Estimates are as follows: ' Winter Wheat Oregon: Area seeded fall of 1917 562,000 acrea, compared with 450,- 000 acrea seeded last fall. Increase 112,000 acres or 25 per cent. Con dition, 90 per cent of normal, com pared with 78 per cent last year, and a 10 year average for December 1st of 94 per cent. United States: Area seeded tall of 1917, 42,000,000 acres, compared with 4t, 634, 000 acrea seeded lust fall. Increase, 1.660,000 acres or 4 per cent. Condition, 79.3 per cent of normal, compared with 85.7 per cent lust year, and a 10 year aver age for December 1st, of 89.3 per cent. , Rye Oregon: Area seeded fall of 1917 35,000 acres, compared with 31,000 acres seeded laBt full. Increase, 4,000 acres or 13 per cent. Condi tion, 95 per cent of normal, com pared with 94 last year, and a 10 yeur average for December 1st, of 97 per cent. United States: Area seeded, full of 1917, 6,120,000 acres compared with 4,480,000 seeded last full, In crease, 1,640,000 acres, or 36.6 per cent.

Slnnott in forms us that the postofflces at both Howard and Barnes in this county will be discontinued at an early date unless someone is found who will act as postmaster at these points. The cases are being . investigated he says, and unless someone will fill the positions, they must both be abolished. This would be very inconvenient especially in the case of Howard, as much territory is served from that point, and the loss would be too great to permit this office to be discontinued.
