Yamhill Reporter: Grain in solne locali ties of this district is turning out somewhat below the estimates that hud been made upon it. Mr. Tucker's field, near town, which was confidently counted at least 40 bushels to the acre, yielded only 32 bushels and tbe deficit prevails at about this ratio throughout the country south of this place. Tbe average yield in this section is about 20 bushels. Farmers calculated on a much larger yield of fall grain early lu the season but the weather was such as to produce prodigious growth of straw at the expense of tho perfecting process, la the grain cells, and the consequence Is, about one-third of every head is empty. The quality of grain however, is not impaired, and we have the same large, full, bright kernels that we are used to seeing ii6 Oregon. Oregon City JCittarprise : Prof. Stone, IT.

A young man from one of the suburban districts was in one of our tailor shops getting measured for a vest the other afternoon. "Married or unmarried ?" queried the merchant, af ter taking down the number. "Uuinar rled," said the young man with a blush. "Inside pocket on the left hand side, then" observed tho tailor, as if to himself, mak ing a memorandum to that effect. After a moment's jmuse, tho young man from the suburtjs inquired : "What difference does nvy being married or unmarried make with the inside pocket of the vest?" "All, my dear sir," observed the tailor with a bland smile, "all the difference possible, as you must see. Being unmarried, you want the pocket on the left side, so as to bring tbe young 'lady's picture next to your heart.' "But don't the married man also want his wife's picture next to his heart ?"' queried the anxious youth.
