It seems to be very difficult to get
the U. S. mail nowdays carried by
horse or stage with the same degree
of promptness and accuracy as it
was in Oregon's pioneer days when
such was the only means of trans
mitting the mails from place to place.
Twenty and twenty-five years ago
when the U. S. mail throughout the
length and breadth of the state was
carried on horse back and by 6tage
it was an unusual circumstance which
would be the subject of comment
some times for days to find the
carrier of the U S. mail be
hind time for fifteonminutes or half
an hour. But now . days it is an
every weeks oeotrrance and some
times repeated almost daiiy. These than they ought to,
troubles are becoming so common
that it now seems that persons not
living where they can get the benefit
of railroad facilities for snchvpnrposes
have no assurance whatever e4 being
able to get mails with any degree of
promptness
CONDITION OF CECP3.
We are indebted to warehouseman
T. J. Blair, of this place, for the fol
lowing facts showing condition of the
crops of the United States as gather
ed by tho Chicago Chamber of Com
merce:
Our speculative markets show
much greater strength than at any
previous date since the opening ot the
year. Our grain receipts hve been
small. The poor outlook for crops in
Europe the coming season, the fact
that war is not among the impossi
bilities abroad at any moment, and
the uncertainty of the outcome of the
growing wheat, are all factors which
have combined to bring about these
results. Again, it is becoming daily
more and more apparent that tin
world's surplus of wheat from the
crop of 1882 was very largely over
estimated. Our California mail ad
vices are as late as January 17th,
when "rain was greatly needed for
the growing wheat crop."
Had it not been for the fine cover
ing of snow which now protects the
winter wheat very largely north of
the Ohio, this extreme cold term
cnuld not have been but disastrous,
and while we put the present outcome
as reasonably favorable for a good
crop there are many contingencies to
irise which may completely upset all
present prospects for an average com-
ui2 crop. South ot the Uhio. Ten
nessee and lventucxy are tar behind
in general prospects for an averacre
yield in 1S83, as compared with this
date in 1882. Freezing and thawin
and with lhe absence of snow and a
late sown crop, with serious loss from
tho work of the Hessian Fly, are the
causes which have brought about
these results. The followins report
from Woodford county, Januai y 20
is a fair sample ot our recent le'ters
from Kent uek v: "Wheat docs not
Qok a? well as a year aoro. Ground
is bare and tops are killed by freezing
but it is green at the base. Thin on
the ground and early sown injured
by flv, reserves are sold. Jfothinc
more than stock enough for local
millers."
Tho Tennessee reports run about
as follows: "Wheat is bare and con
lition not as good ns in 1881." In
Southern Illinois, Ohio and Indiana
we find more snow and a reasonable
fair prospect for the. wheat. In Mich
iwan the four southern tiers of counties
have been fairly protected in Decem
ber, but in the eastern and central
counties we find more -snow. The
depth of snow has been from one to
five inches in the winter wbpat coun
ties of this State. The Michigan
Crop report for January estimates
that there was more than. 11,000,000
bushels of wheat badly damaged in
August and mnch of it worthless
and of but little value except for
feed. In Missouri and Kansas the
snow fall has been very light and
the crop ha been more' or less ex
posed all winter Xo freezing and
thawing.
Corn has been Jselling higher this
month than at any lime since Jan-
nary 1, 1875. We have been draw
ing from Kansas, Missouri and Ne
braska for corn supplies both lo feed
ir. Illinois and Iowa, to say nothing
about the corn that has gone east
from those States. The Stock Yards
of Chicago now get their corn sup
plies from Kansas. There is no ques
tion that the high prices for corn in
the above States has caused farmers
to sell much closer than usual, and
we doubt not in many cases more
accompanies
very attractive meetings for the
young.
Beiog in correspondence with Miss
Willard, I shall soon be able to an
nounce more definitely in regard lo
the exact time of her visit among us.
In the meantime let the Unions al
ready organized be marshalling all
their forces, and let the Christian
women oft-very community prepare
to enter the ranks ot those already
enlisted under this banner "For God
and Home and Native Land."
Miss Willard will assist in the
organization of a State Union, and
when thus organized we shall bo tho
better prepared for thorough syste
matic work.

ing prominent real estate agents we learn
that property in the lower end of the city
in the vicinity of the old depot, haa been
withdrawn altogether from the market.
After some inquiry our reporter found that
the cause of this withdrawal was the rumors
that Massachu3etts and New York capit
alists had formed a stock company, with a
capital of 300,000, for building an im
mense elevator, and the handling of the
grain for this section of the country. Said
elevator ii to be in readiness for the com

merly the Chris. Maier property, whicli
cost the company 27,000, nine miles of
main and all distributing pipe, together
with the franchise, etc. The rentals for
water pay an interest of one and a halt per
cent on the money invested.
The Salem Talk says: I boarded the cars
yesterday morning at Salem, with my mind
made up to observe, as best I could, the
effect.? of the recent cold snap on the grain
fields. In the upper part of Linn county
the crops do not seem to be much hurt, in
stead of the brown cast that characterized
the wheat fields near Salem. There is a
bright hue over many of the large fields,
which indicate that there islifo left in the
wheat. The farmers of Lane county do not
seem to be much discouraged concerning
the freeze, in fact the Lane county farmers
have never been more prosperous than at
present. "Long may they wave."
The Dayton W. T. Journal says, Dayton
contains seventeen brick buildings. Six
teen are occupied by business firms and the
other as a dwelling, erected the past sum
mer by A. J. Dexter fcr his own use. The
first brick store was built by Wait & Matgar,
in the summer of 1873. This building is
now owned by D. C. Guernsey and occupied
by M. Hexter as a general merchandise
Btore. Eight, or just one-half of the busi
ness bricks were put up during the year'
1883.' It is xpected that th present year
will witness as great, or even greater im
provements in this substantial line. It ia a
pleasure to note these facta, which solidly
show that so many of the business men of
Dayton have come to stay.
Walla Walla Democrat saya: Last night
we interviewed Philip Ritz, who is pnrhaps
the best known nurseryman in the Terri
tory, and in reply to a question by us aa to
the fruit proapecia for '83, he said; "Tho
peach crop ia an entire failure; pears are in
jured, and plums will be scarco enough to
make those who obtain them lucky, indeed.
The cherry tree3 are injured, and I doubt
if there will bo much of a crop, if any. The
small fruit will also prove to have been
affected by the extensive cold. The injury,
nearly all," says Mr. Ritz, "occurred dur
ing the first cold spell, when the ther
mometers marked from 12 to 20 degrees
below zero and there was no snow on the
limbs of the trees."
Helvatia, in the Goldendale Gazette, says
of the Columbia river valley about Ains
worth: Almost every spot of land lying in
the valleys, not far above the level of high
water, along the rivers mentioned ia, as I
have before said, especially adapted for all
kinds of fruit that can be raised north of
thetsemi-tropical regions, berries, grapes
and sugar cane, a3 well as all varieties of
vegetables. As aoon as this valley becomes
settled steamboats will ply the waters of
the river and carry the products of indus
try to market, from whence the grjat bulk
will go eastward for this reason: Just as
soon as the Northern Pacific railroad is
completed the millions of acres of excellent
wheat lands will be settled and towns and
citiea will spring up by the hundreds.
The La Grande Becord says: There are a
great number of our citizeu3 who are now
paying more for getting their stock fed for
one week than enough hay for the winter
would have cost them last summer. It is
not our object to censure any one who is
so unfortunate; indeed wo feel sorry for
any one who ia loosing stock on account of
lack of feed at this time ol the year. But
we believe this will result beneficially to all
such persons. At least there is very forc
ibly imnressed the fact that to properly
care for stock in this country, plenty of
feed and shelter must be provided. Tho
climate of Eastern Orogan is not an eternal
summer, a3 we have lately had ample evi
dence, and it is no detriment to the country
that it is not so. The greatest thrift, th
most intelligence, and the best health is
found in countriff3 which have good, solid
winter weather once a year. It is as essen
tial to our welfare as unintermitting heat ia
to the indolence and shiftlessneas of the
lazy, languid, inactive inhabitants of the
tropics. We have heard a great many de
clare their intentions of being better pre
pared for "blizzards" in the future, and for
the sake of their own interests and the
many hundreds of half-fed cattle and horses
in this country, which may anywhere be
found, we hope they may.

FROM THE mm PRESS, 11
Oneonta, New York, Jan. 6th.
Early last summer Messrs. B. J. Kendall & Co., ot
Knosburjjh Falls, Vt. , made a contract with the pub
lishers ol the Press for a half column advertisement
for one year setting forth the merits of Kendall's
Spavin Cure. At the same time we secured from tho
linn a quantity of books, entitled Dr. KeudaH'8
Treatise on the horse and his Diseases, which we are
giving to advance paying subscribers to the Press aa
a premium.
About the time the advertisement first appeared
in this paper Mr. P. O. Schermerhorn, who resides)
near Colliers had a fcpavined hor-ie. He read the ad
vertisement and concluded to test the efficacy of th8
remedy, although his friends langhed at his cred
ulity. He bought a bottle of Kendall's Spavin Cure
and commenced using it on the horse in accordance
with the directions, and he informed us th.s week
that it effected such a complete cure that an expert
horseman, who examined the animal recently could
Bod no trace of the spavin or the place where it had
been located. Mr. Senermerhorn has since secured a
copy of Kendall's Treatise on the Horse and his Dis
eases, which he prizes very highly and would be
loth to part with at any price, provided he could
not obtain another copy. So much for advertising
reliable articles.

Fremont, Ohio, Jan. 25th.
Dr. B. J. Krndall & Co., Gouts : I think it my
duty to render you my thanks for benefits and profit
which I have derived from your invaluable and far
famod tiwavin Cure. My cousin and I had a valuable
stallion, worth 54000 which had a very bad spavin
and wan pronounced by four eminent veterinary
surtruons beyond any cure, and that the horse waa
done for ever. Aa a last resort 1 advised my couaia
to try a bottle of Kendall's ypavifi Cure. It had a
magical effect, the third bottle cured it and tho
hors U a3 well as ever. Dr. Dick of Edinburgh, tho
eminent veterinary surgeon was an uncle of mine.
and I take great interest in assisting his profession.
Yours truly,
JAmfs A. Wilson, Civil Engineer.

caused me very severe pain all tho time for four or

Cure with the mortt satisfactory results. It has en
tirely removed the enlargement and Btopped the
lameness and pain. I have long known It to be ex
cellent for horses but now I know it to be the beut
liitiment for humau fieh that I am acquainted with.
