says that if his trade continues to increase
as it has during the past past twelve
months he will be compelled to seek
larger quarters. Up and down
the street the merchants are almost
unanimous in saying that the business
of 1895 was far in excess of their ex

of success during the coming year.

D. C Rose is in receipt of a letter
from his brother, who recently left for
the east with a quantity of dried prunes '
Ths letter was dated at St Louis, where
the prunes were disposed of, and con
tained a check for the proceeds derived
from their sale. Promptly npon . ilar
rival at St. Louis, after being enroute 26
days, the fruit was sold at seven cents
per pound. Iu writing to his brother,
Mr. Rose-states that hal the shipment
arrived prior to the hplidaysejght and
one ualt c ents per pound -would nave
been realized! There was only a" par
tial carload in the shipmeut, con se
queutly, Mr. Rose was unable to secure
carload rates, thus making a difference
of a cent a pouud on the net proceeds.
The price received was four cents per
pound, net.'but had they been shipped in
a carload lot and arrived a few days earli
er, they would have netted six and one
half cents instead of four. As" three
cents was the best price obtainable here,
Mr. Rose is well pleased with the re

County's Advantages in the
New Year OregOnian. I
The followinsr writc-uo of Benton county.
from the versatilo pen of Wikon, ap-
pearedin the Oregonian's Now Yeareeition.
It contain; a brief statement of the ccunty's
rich and varied resources as well as much
valuable statistical information. '
Tiio legislative act of 1893, creating Lin
coln county, left Bonton 0.10 of the smallest
.counties in the stito, but one that for its area
can stand a general comparison with others
of larger extent. Nature, in' ordaining that
this county should be for the u?e of tha agri
culturalist, horticulturist and stockman was
not spare with her gifts. Along the "Wil
lamette river, that forms the "eastern bound
ary lino, and extending back for 10 miles or
mora into the foothills of the Coast range,
she placed a soil adnped to general cultiva
tion; to the land of tha foothills she gave a
prevailing eastern exposure and a soil unsur
passed for fruitgrowing. Approaching ths
summit of tho range, the alopes are covered
with a verdure that affords excellent giazing.
The county contains, approximately, 415,
000 acres, 317,701 of which are patented; and
77,657 acres (noarly 20 per cent) under culti
vation. Tho tax -roll of 18C4 shows an in
crease in this latter item of 10,000 acres
within the last year.
TI10 crops grown hav been wheatand oats,
until recently, when the people, discovering
that their reliance must be placed on some
other return from tho land, liavp turned to
divarsiQud farming and tho reault is an in
creasing acrenge in fruit and hops.
In 1894 Benton county produced 431,550
bushels of wheat, and 359,4-19 bushels of oats,
40S0 bushfcls of barley; hay, 14,C0i tons;
potatoes, 71,059 bushels; corn, 4090 bushels.
This is not a locality for growing milling
corn, and that raised was for private use.
At Corvallis tho elevation is SI9 feet above
sea levol, and from June, 1894, to June, 1895,
the lowest temperature registered was 23 do
groes, in January, and the highest S3 dogieas,
in August. The average temperature of tho
summer was 02 degress; autumn, 51 degress;
winter, 40 degrees, and spring, 49 degrooj.
Twiceas much rain full in January 11.0 in
cli3 At in any other month of the year, the
total annual precipitation being about 41
inches. : '' '.
Tho coming industry of this locality is
fruitgrowing, and the pioneor prunegrower
is Hugh Fialey.. with 1000 trees now eight or
tilna j-caisold, and an orchard of younger
treos not yet in bsaring. The Excelsior
prune orchard, near Monroe, contains 2G0
acres, planted with 22,000. trees two and three
years old. " Adjoining this orchard is tha
Bellefounlain fruit farm of 150 acre, over
ono-half of which is in prunes, ths remaindor
being apples and pears. Intbciamo vicin
ity is an orchard belonging -to Professor E
B. McElroy, containing 30 acres. Near
Granger, on the lino of tho Oregon Central
& Ea.torn railroad, in the northern end of
the county, the Benton County Prune Com
pany has a farm containing 150 acres planted
entirely with Italian prunes. TI13 treos are
five years old, and last year bore their Cist
crop, ihu oreharJ is under tho manage
ment of E. K. Lnke, ono of its principal
ist in the Oregon agricultural collago and
tlio agricultural college nt Pullman, Wash.
Professor Lake resides on the farm and gives
it his personal attention, and. tins means
much toward its ultimate tuccess.
It is understood that a scheme is on foot to
plant a 1500-acrc tract with fruit, and this
will probably tyn an accomplished fact within
the next year. In addition to the above,
there ro, porhups, 300 acres of prunes iu
smaller tracts. Within." the last two years
there has been a growing tandeney to plant
winter apples in pretarsnce to other kind: of
fnrt, - , .
Until two years ago, the aorcage in hops
was of no moment, but it is s ifo to say that
at tho prnssnt timo there are at least 500 acres
in yards, tha average yield bsing-from 1500
to 2500-pouTuls poracro .
TI13 lumber market is supplied by six saw
mills that, in addition to mealing th homo
demand, ship hard wood to San Francisco.
A new hard-wood mill has just been erected
m Corvaliis and is provided with completo
steam seasonin apparatus.

Shipments of lumber and flour to "Califor

The college section of tits Slate Teach
ers Association held itsasnual meeting iu
Portland last Saturday. 'Among the in
structors present from Corvallis was J. B.
Horner, -professor of English language
and literature at the Agricultural College,
who is one of the best- kaown educators
In the northwest Prof. Horner has a
large library and so far as it pertains to
English and American literature, is pro
bably excelled by few 011 the coast. That
its voluinns' have beeu carefully perused
and studied, is evinced by. the following
flattering comment front ih" Sunday Ore
gouian upon Mr. Horner's, address before
the association last Saturday:
Mr. J. B. Horner, of the State Agricul
tural College, spoke at.leiigth upon the
proper course of study in. English to be
pursued by students injhe freshman's
year'at-a college. The learned gentle
man gave figures aud facts which showed
a full acquaintauc with the college work
of the state, as well as a mastery of the
preparatory work done by he public and
high schools. The speaker emphasized
the importance of literature ix the
schools, slating- that rhetoric was only
valuable as It was supported by thorough
and careful analysis of the leading au
thors who have writtea in the English
language. Mr.. Horns rwemt further and
laid still greater emphasis ou the impor
tance of continuous study, -in English, in
all' cases where the other . languages are
not pursued. Great interest was taken
in the views presented, which may be
expected to take root.

The fact that tho U. A. C. boys were badly

merits of the Forest Grove team, as its game
with the Farmers was early iu the season,
before its piayurs were i:i form, and the O.
A. O. team did not play its game in its try

to bo decided by actual results, not by the
