(Special correspondence.) Still in the wonder ful wheat belt of Whitman County, till in the Palouse Country. In a small lty which sends for 250,000 sacks of grain, mostly wheat, each year, isear Palouse there is a large area each year Dut In oats, and that crop this season Is better than tne wneai, ior the latter crop is not harvesting quite up to the expectations of a month ago. when it was estimated the wnitman County crop would amount to 9,000.000 bushel. This is a cltv of about 1500 popuia tlon, a cleanly little place, with the best of schools, large churches and no saloons. The business houses all seem to be doing a good business, but just now the principal activities are cen tered in the wheat fields, where the harvest la in full blast. One of the first things that attracted mv attention after entering the town was a large poster announcing that the third annual harvest fair would oe neia here on the first four days of October next. This fair has come to be mostly a stock show, which augurs well for the country. In discussing general con ditions hereabouts with Mr. B. M. Schick, the Dronrletor of the Palouse Republic, the only newspaper ot mt town, I learned that tne settlers in mis vicinity are turning their attention Mt-Tv a-enerallv to dairying and hog- ralslng.

Transportation is pro vided by three railroads, -mere are m course a large number of grain ware houses, about all of the Portland buy ers having agencies here. There has been only a load or two of wheat de livered thus far. the principal business r.t th. oraln-Krowers now being to get their wheat cut and harvested and to provide sacks for it.

They make a good grade of flour, which is used largely in this vicinity. The mercantile estab lishments of Palouse carry large stocks, particularly tne naroware n agricultural Implement dealers. And i notice that most all of the implements come from r-oruanu, a the merchants buy tneir grocer, c. mostly in Spokane. The dry goods and notions are largely from the Portland wholesalers. Dairying Is Profitable. t nHntiinc the dairy business -I n.rinnkrd the fact that the principal dairyman of the section, jur. j. urn- am. whose place is lour nmus ouui'. of town, is milking 60 cows. He also ships his cream to bpokane. tie nas a large area in alfalfa, from which he gets two good cuttings a year, and sev eral months' pasture. And remember this is on upland witnoui waier. air. Graham is said to be making money rapidly, and it Is his example that Is leading many others to turn thoir at tention to dairying. Rn.akln of upland, or ary mnu. alfalfa, reminds me that a good many f. h hatter class of Whitman farmers are turning tneir attention m ui crop.
