1 CLACKAMAS COUNTY THE ENTERPRISE CORRESPOND EXTS SWEEP THE HF.I.U. A lontlng; Fruit District-Many New Or chards lb-lug Planted aud Old Ones . Eulanrrd Other News Notes. CARr, Sept. 17. Tlirvsliiiift in this part of the county is tUrnt completed. Winter wheat u a very good yield, lo intr oats. Spring oats most too late and some what Injured by early rains. Apple crop fair, plums and prunes good. There mill be a large planting of prunes this fall. Alfred Smith will add some eight or ten acres to bis already thriving orchard. William Davis will put oat l.VKt trees. Mr. Emmett and Mr. Fanton will also pat out several acres. This is as it should be. This ml hill land has proved to be the very best prune land, and when all the farmers shall have five acres or upward It will establish a market. I hear people complaining ot the want of a fruit market. There will be no trouble about a market when we have the fruit in sufficient quantities to call the at tention of buyers. The old saying holds rood in fruit as well as every thing produced on the farm: "There are none so far from market as those who have nothing to sell." It is said by some that the prune business will be overdone. While the dried product costs the consumer from 10 to 15 cents per pound there is no danger of overproduc tion. Prunes can be profitably prepared for market at 5 cents per pound (the dried article), and a hundred per cent more real ized than for wheat at 50 cents per bushel. Farmers, plant prunes, and then plant prunes, and keep on planting until you have at least ten acres on every farm. Misses Lottie, Kate aud Gussie Casto have all been visiting the Alpine farm. Miss Lottie has just returned from a visit to the world's fair and a trip through the eastern states and provinces.

Crop is light-Hup Good Grain Yield Averages Well. SA.NDT. A Good Grain Crop but low Price for Farm Products Extensive Damage by Fires. Sasdt, Sept. 10. Harvest is all done here and threshing is the order of thedav. The grain turns out well and all the farmers have their granaries well filled, but they are much discouraged at the low price of farm products. No better prices ran be expected until we get a republican administration. The gentle rain which began to fall the 6tb was bailed wtth joy bv many, especially by those in the fire region. This rain has saved a great amount of property which would have been destroyed by fire if it had not come. Reports come from various quarters where new settlers have lost all their property by the forest fires. Many houses, barns and otner buildings have been destroyed, also horses cattle, pigs and sheep. Several settlers have barely escaped with their lives, and the roads in many places are blocked with fallen trees.

The "grand picnic" which was to have been held the 8th of September was a fail ure on account of the rain which began to pour down early in the morning and contin ued the whole day more or less except at noon when the sun looked ont from behind the clouds, and then the people came flock ing into the park. By three o'clock about 600 people were gathered, and just as every thing was ready on the platform for danc ing a big shower came and the people had to run to seek shelter. The band went to the hall where the rest of the day was spent in dancing. A large crowd gathered in the ball in the evening to dance. The music which was the finest ever heard in Sandy was furnished by the Metropolitan band. Marks Prairie. Masks Pbaibie, Sept. 18. The farmers of this prairie have been very busy during the past week taking care of their harvest but have made very slow progress owing to the rains and cloudy weather of the past few days.
