Mr J H Rainey, of Miller's obtained 4384 bushels of wheat from his threshing. His highest eeti mite before cutting had bean 4900 bushels, so that he is nearly a thousand bushels of wheat better off then he had any idea of being. From AT acres he raised 1726 bushels, an average of over , 38 boaheia, and from 12 acres he obtained 484 baskets. This wheat was the Chili dub and golden chaff. Mr Rainey brought us a small sheaf in which there was one bunch of 40 stalks fgpm one seed, and ail ranged from about 20 up. His May sow ing, which waa supposed to be drowned oat averaged about 25 bushels to the acre. Mr Wm YantLV wheat averaged 40 bush els to the acre, taking the whole yield. Mr Witts' wheat averaged 40 bushels, asd his oats 75 bushels to the acre. Some time ago when farmers feared there would be a failure of the crops Mr S R Clay pool, one of oar efficient county commissioners offered to take .600 busbe' s of wheat for a given number of acres, of wheat, but no on- wad found to take it. He harvested this wheat crop a few daya since and threshed J 900 bushels from it Another illustration of the good crops which ear farmers are gaming. A. Brandon of Center Precinct had 14 scree of wheat which averaged 40 bushels per acre. Dr Crawford threshed 75 acres which made 25 boabels to the acre. J J Dsyis threshed 45 seres of wheat that averaged 30 bushels per acre. George Lnper's wheat we are told aver aged 40 bushels to tbe acre. Mr Witzel living' near Tangent had 100 acres of wheat that averaged 47 bushels per acre. Geo Cochran near Tangent bad 65 acres of wheat that averaged 30 bushels per sere. Henry Settlemier threshed 30 seres that averaged 56 bushels per sere. Albeay Clleg. The Albany College will open in this city o i Ti e day, September 11. under the most favorable ci rc u instances, a nd it is a matter of local pride to be able to state that there is every prospect of its being p aced on a permanent foun dation financially and otherwise. The faculty will be the best to be obtained . and the coarse of study will be made thorough in every respect, so that when one graduates from this college be will be fitted for nil the duties of life, professionally or otherwise. Tbe success of a place depends much upon the success of its schools, si that too much cannot be done towards promot ing oar educational institutions. N t only the College but the public schools should be encouraged. The latter should be a stepping stone to tbe form er, Tbe young man or woman who has an ambition to fill well bis place in life should obtain the best education to be secured, at least in Oregon.

Tbe big wheat crop this year has taught many a lesson, one or which a that it is better to look on the bright than the dark side of life. The habitual kicker is worse than the candle that burns itself out. Joseph Sberwio, a prominent architect of Portland, was found dead in bed last Toes day. He was one of the architects who drew up the plans for the state insane asy lam. He was 46 years of age and leaves a wife. Thos Draper, "the Boy Orator," accord ing to the Portland papers recently forged s cheek on Judge' Wait, of Canby, got it cashed and fled for parts unknown. No clue to his whereabouts have as yet been obtained. An old riddle which we used to hear in the days of our knee breeches, was this : "A hill full and a hole full and can't catch a bowl foil." Tbe answer was "smoke." But this would jiot stand the test in Oregon at this time.

Castello's circus disbanded at Roseborg.

The answer of the Sheriff is convincing that he acted in cowardly manner. Those who know Sheriff Pnrdom know that cowardice is the farthest from one of bis peculiarities. Any such insinuation by a party to the sapture. as Mr Barlow was. certainly shows peer judgment if not spite. More stssotfsa needs to be paid to sew age not only here bat everywhere. Much of the sickness prevalent can be traced to bad drainage. The same spirit is observable here as in many other places, to make a thing with as little outlay or work ss possi ble, and in oonseqneace water closets sre built on top of the ground, with ne drainage at all. This is aa important matter, and if citizens would prevent disease they should look into it. and place shsir yards in a better condition. That peripatetic noiaaaee, Frank Ankeny, who recently returned from the Willamette valley, was arrested last week, charged with smoking opium.

I terns like this hsve been common : ' Mr Oeisen dorfer, who livee near Pendleton is- trying the experiment of raising silk worms," Besides residing near Pendleton Mr O. has been placed at Portland and any number of other cities until all the silk must have been twisted from his worms. Verily there seems to be a great effort being made to rob Albany of her many advantages.

From tbe following clipped from the Hep ner Gazette it is evident the Northern Pacif ic is a hard road on tramps, certain ly an ex cellent thing for tbe country : "Mr Thomas Hungry arrived in Hepner from the oast last Saturday, and immediately struck out for Floorsack creek, where he will herd sheep for the Off Brothers.

This kind of irregular step ping made him so stiff and sore that to get limbered up, he had to boil himself in dogfish oil in a shssp dipping vat below town.

If the blsokemitb would weld together two pieces ol Iron he must strike i If a city would ever become a prosperous place it must strike. The blacktmith might the orize for a lifo time about bow two pieces of Iron oould be fastened together, but It is tbe etrlklng that accomplishes It. Tbe citizens of a town may tell what ia noose eery to make it thrive, but it Is anion that does It ; not until some solid blows sre struck will there be anything aecompl ed. It takes li ve dollars to buy a sledge hammer, and out of ten persons fire can only aggregste a dollar, and tbe other five, asy a bund red, but are so tight and oew ardly and miserly that they beg morey to buy tbelr tobacco and live on frizzled moss snd cord wood, then tbe hammer will never be bought end tbe striking will be looked for In vain. If we were to settle ourselves down aud do some solid think ing wo could not bring to mind words so equate to give vent to our opinion of tbe ii.au, who, having tbe means, is yet so pusillanimous that be opposes all progress If U coets him s cent from his Ill-gotten pelf. Albany, with a water-power not sur passed, If equalled, in tbe northwest, sur rounded by a magnificent farming coun try, rich in having a generoos hea.ted tailoring people In It midst, and a first- class society, Is at a standstill, because a few men in It who bsve tbe most money, though in no business, lazy from non action, will not risk a cent of their wealth la anything that will build up tbe com munity. This is plain talk, bnt it is a fact, and some day we sre going to publish a black list of tbem to see how their names look in prim, inasmuch ae they never do any thing else to bring their name before tbe public. Aa it is now evident that no dependence at all can be placed on thia c'as of men, it behooves tbe younger (dass to step up, and unite with a few of the older reliable ones and instead of tbreatenlag to pull up tbelr stake, strike a few blows tor pro- a-llrsllr Some of our young men are talking of putting up an opera bouse. This is to be very much regretted ; anything that indi- lim should be annihilated at once. Some mean should be taken to prevent the farmer from bringing their wheat here, aa their horses make a fearful racket on the streets, snd it furnishes fuel for the mills during tbe year, as well ea employ moot for thirty or forty men grinding It, aad sanding the' dour away. Poor drainage make a city healthy. It might be hoped that the irrsngs ments for fixing np'tbe Baptist church would fall through aa it ha been en orna ment to the clt with all the glass in its windows out. Run down the piece you lire in. It how good sense. Tbe man U most appreciated who baa money in abundance and keeps it in the ground for fear of losing it, living on charity in tbe meanwhile. Imawrtaai i Mr S R Copeland has rented tbe Simp son warehouse, and La put the same lo good running order, so tbst it Is not only sate but an excellent place to store wheat. He Is prepared to store aad buy lOejeSO bushel of gt sinysnd will pay them highest caab paio, or aa ranch aa any warehouse or mill, including premium. He will also furnish sacks to farmer briugiog wheat aod oats to tbe warehouse at the lowest cash price, and if farmers have saeka will buy both grain and sack, al lowing tbem tbe highest cash price for both. .II farmers should make it a point to see Mr Copeland before making ar rangements elsewhere. fSaa set's Waste M.r.
