County Court and Mayor Hailey Name Men for Irrigation Congress. CITY FROM ALL QUARTERS. Retailing at 5 Cents Per Pound at Stores, and 45 to 65 Cents per Box —Beef Has Only Fallen 10 Cents a Hundred—Many Stockmen Will Hold Over Before Selling at Low Prices. The principal thing of interest in the market this week is the tlood ol peaches that is coming into the city from the Milton country, and to a lesser degree from the Walla Walla and Wallula orchards, t uis is peach season and there seems to ue plenty of fruit to make it a good one. Ped dlers and farmers with their wagons loaded to the top are coming into the city day after day looking for a chance to sell their wares and so fai the housewives of the city have un­ loaded the wagons as fast as they came. Peaches are selling at 5 cents a pound retail or from 45 to 65 cents a box. The fruit is of good quality large and will rank with the same variety for other places that comes in to the country at auy time of the year. Outside of the fruit and grocery line there is not much of interest, though the prices of cattle have fai len to a certain extent, Some time ago it was reported that the prices at which young steers were selling had dropped from $3.50 to $3.25 as the bottom quotations and while this may be so. it has not been as yet borne out in practice for the least that has been accepted in the last week is $3.40. a drop of 10 cents. While steers are plentiful and the buyers seem to be able to get wnat they want, the growers are not alto­ gether at their mercy and will not be for some time. Tbe men who have the cattle are not breaking then necks to unload on the market, though they realize that the feed it this section of the country is scarce and that the fewer cattle they have to feed, the better condition theii stock will be when spring comes. This holds good in most of the cases though there are some of the growers who have sufficient feed engaged tc hold all of their cattle in good con­ dition through the winter months. The meat market has fallen in part and the buyers are wanting it to fall more, though no the other hand, the growers are hoping that they will be able to unload their surplus without damaging the quotations to a great­ er extent than has already been done. Pendleton Retail Grocery Prices. The county court has adjourned to meet again September 23. and at the meeting just ended they took up the consideration of the appointing of delegates to the National Irrigation convention. Some days ago F. B Holbrook was named by the court as one of the men whom they would send, but the other one was not se lected until the last day. R. B. Stan­ field. of Echo, has been chosen as the second man to represent the county. Judge G. A. Hartman, as the pres ident ot the Columbia Valley lrriga tion Association, has appointed W.

Hailey, as the mayor of the city, has appointed Walter Pierce «nd Bert Huffman to represent the city at the Ogden meeting. Judge Harttuan and Mayor T. G. Hailey were apointed by Governor Chamberlain as delegates at large ind Judge W. R. Ellis and E. P. Dodd iave been appointed to represent the Commercial Asosciation. O. R. A N. ASSESSMENT.

Is III. STOCK IN GOOD SHAPE ALL OVER THE STATE Vermin in the Hops—Averaqe Yield of Alfalfa—State Potatoes Are a Fine Crop—Extra Good Crop ot Pears—Apples Are Only a Fair Crop. The first five days of the week were warm and pleasaut and excellent for harvesting wheat and hops. On Sat- urday the weather became showery and unsettled and light rains occur­ red in all parts of the state. These rains were of great benefit to pastures and lute potatoes, but they interfered with the harvest of spring wheat, and also caused an in­ crease of vermin in the hop yards. Spring wheat harvest is drawing to a close and threshing is progressing rapidly. The grain yields continue satisfactory, and the reports from nearly everywhere are that the qual ity are above average. Hop picking is being pushed as fast as possible: in fact, some correspondents say that the hops are being picked too green But in general the crop is rip«», am' it is believed will turu out to t>e a good one. although slightly smaller than that of last year. The third crop of alfalfa is being harvested, with average yields Stocl is in good condition, and green and stubble feed is now plentiful.

Five year« ago there was not enough com raised In that part of the country to amount to much, but the farm«»rs are coming to see the util­ ity of. the crop and every year more and more Is put in until at thfg time there 1« 1.000 acres ripening in the fallow fields surrounding Athena. By the method that has been fol­ lowed In the past the large wheat land« of the county have been fal­ lowed and at that time have done nothing while they were resting, Now in a measure they are made to pay for their reat by the corn they grow In the years when they do not yield wheat. The corn raised is mostly the Da- kota Yellow Dent and is a hardy pro­ duct and a good ylelder. It will give 25 to 30 bushels to the acre and In good years and under good conditions «III net a little more to the man who tends it well This year there are l.tksi acres in the neighborhood of Athena, and all of tbe crop will yield the figure given, and in the market «III bring 50 cents per bushel.
