Your anonymous correspondent of
llh.lilnnd in hut week's issue tells U
that )eaa aru only a half crop;
whoa"!
yielded from three to 30 bushels
acre ; garden vegetables very poor
per
pc
tatoes and fruit wilt be snort, uur ob
servations lead us to different conclu
sions. We would say that this was a
good yes.r for peas as well as for other
grains. We have not heard of any
wheat going anywhere near or low
three bushels to the acre. Our rock
pile joins G. R. Miller's place, and our
wheat went 42 bushels per acre, Our
cabbages weighed eight pounds each
Of course our spuds are "short," but we
planted the short kind. 'As to thresh
ing we do not wish to reduce the honors
belonging to Mr. Hughes, but we must
not forget to mention our young and en
terprising neighbor, Gred Heft. He
threshed 26,000 bushels in 22 days.

Mrs. Maggie Hannah Pratt died at
the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs.
J. F. Briggs, September 21, at 12 o'clock,

We feel that we owe many thanks to
the friends and neighbors of this vicin
ity for their kindness in ime of need.

William O. Vaughan met wi'h a pain
ful accident recently. He was engaged
in felling timber when a tree m falling
struck a dead snag, which was crushed,
A portion of the snag struck Billy on the
hip and fractured his hip bone, and is
very painful. He will be laid up for
some time.
Sturges Bros, are going to rebuild
their sawmill, which was burned down
recently. There are certain things con
nected with the burning of said mill
that poiut strongly to the fa;t that it
might have been set on fire.
Our enterprising harness mrker, Wil
Ham Mackrell, has purchased a Landis
hard wax lock stitch harness machine
costing $300. By ton years of practical
experimenting by the inventor, this ma
chine was first placed on the market
about seven years ago, and therefore is
no experiment. It has been improved
from year to year since that time until
it has reached such a state of perfection
that it does better work than it is possi
ble to do by hand. As compared by
hand work the machine uses a smaller
awl larger and stronger thread twice as
much hard wax, which is melted and
pumped into the stitches to the inch
and every stitch pulled tighter than is
possible by hand. A man Bewing by
hand nulls the thread through hole af
ter liole in the leather thus weakening
the thread with each stitch taken before
it finds its place in the complete work,
where as the machine uses a new piece
of thread for each and every stitch. Buy
ers of harness on first thought consider
all machine-made harness as being fac
tory harness, but this is not right, as
there is a vast difference between factory-made
harness and harness made
on a Landis machine in Mr. Mackrell's
shop, because he uses better stock a nd
will exercise greater cre iu selecting
the best part of the leather for parts of
the harness subjected to to the greatest
strain.

New books are not very favorable with
the parents. Where there are many
children in the family the tinaucial bank
drops low. But the education of the ris
ing generation is so important, even it
be a loss to the parents. In the long
run it will certainly pay to both. So
my dear papa and mamma! don't grum
ble at my getting new books. Please
t dp me to eat them up.

We have now had three presidents
assassinated, Lincoln by a democrat;
Garfield, by a republican; McKinley by
an anarchist. Socialism has not devel
oped any murderers yet, in this or any
other country. Our motto is love. If
a murderer assassinates our president,
why do so many people, especially the
ministers of the gospel declare that it
was God's will. How do they know
that ? lf.it is guess work, I have as good
a right to gueis as. any one, sol guess it
was the work of the devil and that God
had nothing to do with it.

Leaving Lomeat9 a.m. we made
our first camp at Newburg, which is a
very pretty town. We started trom
home by way of illamette Falls and
Stafford through the counties of Clacka
mas, Washington and Yamhill, a dis
tance of 30 miles. J he next day we
camped at Wilhelmina, going by way of
Dundee, Dayton, Amity, Bellevue and
Sheridan, where we saw some ot ine
prettiest fields that man ever set eyes
on. for roads, wen, wacxaoiaB county
is not "in it," as a person would net
need a brake to travel that road, a dis
tance of 35 miles. A two-hours' drive
from Wilhelmina brings you to the
Grande Ronde bill, which is the steep
est pull going, while you gradually get
over the mountain on an easy grade and
a good BiuoQthe road to Dolph, where
the Toll gate is. Here the road forks to
Slab Creek and Little NeBtucca. After
paying $1 for a four-wheeled rig, 75
cents for a two-wheeled rig and 50 cents
for a saddle horse you proceed to wind
vour way down to Woods and Ocean
Park, a distance of 35 miles, w here we
arrived at dusk. To describe all the
sport would be taking up too much
Space, sufficient to eay digging clams and
rock oysters, and wading in the surf is
more fun than you can "shake a stick
at" !i a month.- The accommodations
are as handy as a "pocket in a shirt."
If you intend to catch fish get a guide,
as you will be loaded down with mud
cats before you get back to camp. Just
now the fishermen are gathering their
harvest, but the supply was not equpl
to the demand. Fishermen receive 1 1-2
cents per pound at the cannery, while
they charge three cents per pound to
wagons and pack them in barrels, where
parties furnish their own salt to pack
with. Those going in for fish had bet
ter take salt as it seemed to be very
scarce there. L. F,
