The writer of the above must have

wrote the article. No "fifty per

damage lo grain in Washington
county has lieen reported, prior to
the last rains, at from "five to twelve

rains, coming since the above was
sent to the Herald, have, perhaps,
not materially added to that esti

shows the utter absurdity of the

W. II. Wehrung baa been visiting
at Salem the first of the week, mak
ing the final preparations for the
state fair, which commences Sept
ember 15, and will last one week.
The statu fair this year will be of
stiecial Interest to Washington
county, as it is a matter of fact that
more of our faimer are having ex
hibits pi awl tha n ever before. This
speaks well, not only for the fair,
but for the progress! veness of our
agricultural population. Washing
ton county is one of the best and
most fertile in tbe state, and she
has too long bid her light under the
traditional "half bushel." The at
tendance from this section would
have been unusually large this year,
but owing to lhe detention of har
vest, caused by rains, many who
contemplated going, will be com
pelled to stay at home.
There is a great deal of complaint
in the lowtr part of the county
about onion mold. Tins plague has
not yet reached as far up the river
as HilUboro. Jupiter Pluvius is
rather a bad fellow to have around

Quite a few onion fields are pulled,

If good weather obtains, hop pick
ing in Washington county will be
in full blast next week and hund
reds will be laboring in the yards.
This industry afforde a great deal
of work, and the picking is not so
arduous but what women and
children can participate. Many a
family can pick up enough money
through the hop picking season to
make a neat sum towards support
ing the winter's larder, while a
great many who do not need the
money, can go out and have a regu
lar vacation and still make il a
matter of profit, instead of a bill of
expense. Eighty cents per hundred
pounds seems to be the prevailing
county price.

Mr. Austin C'aig, editor of the

somewhat of a surprise to Craig's

not satisfied that Mr. Craig is to
blame for Ibi branch of the Hat
chet's advertising. Perhaps Mr.
Craig knows nothing about this
particular advertisement! Who
knows but what Mr. Tim W.
Thompson, the proprietor, was the
guilty party securing this, to relig
ious people, objectionable matter.
If such be the case, Mr. Craig should
be excused and not forced out of
the church. P. S. After mature
consideration and investigation a
long certain lines, The Abous re
porter is more than satisfied that
Craig did not secure those brewery
advertisements, for didn't be ask
Mr. Craig to "join as" the other

Craig vehemently, and with injured
expression, refuse? Certainly he
did! And Mr. Craig ia innocent!
