after leaving M. Michaels the hxcelmor
viita caught on the dangerous (lata of the
Yukcn und broke two blades of her pro
peller. W hen tho Cleveland reached
Uunalueka tho found the hxce'.mor un
dergoing repairs. It is probable she left
(hinalukka lust Mouduy.
Shortly before tho Clovelaud left fur
Seattle ou her journey home the Coiled
States revenue cutter Dear put into St.
Michaels to tell another story of death
and disaster in the ice-bound Arctic.
the hear had ou lioard Captain White-
aide, his wife, iho brat und fourth olll-
ceis und four aeamoa of the eteaiu
whaler Nevach. They are all that re
nin iu to tell a terrible story of death la
the Arctic. The Nevach was caught in
an icepack, of her crew -I- were lost.
Thirty-olio were crushed in tho ice anil
teu frozou to death, ibu Dear saw the
vessel's signal of distress near I'oint Har
row, and went to her assistance. The
captain, hia wifo, two otlicers aud four
cea moil were persuaded to leave the
crippled Bhip, but nine others positively
rcftiHcd to o. iney were lelt In a deso
late held of Lo, and it is feared perished
with their comrades.
The terrible tulo of suffering told by
Captain Whitcgido and bis otlicers forms

Cleveland brings. It was believed after
she hud left St. Michaels she was to

The Cleveland ami Humboldt had met,
aud now Hlorics of the abandoned adveu

Agriculture and Manufacture.
Though agriculture is the chief source
of wealth, no exclusively agricultural
country was ever a rich and prosperous
oue. A country lich in agricultural
products must have, iu order to produce
to its fullest capacity, a largo amount of
manufactured articles of every day use,
such as wagons, plows, barrows, culti
vators, reaper?, mowers, threshers, etc.
All of these aud mauy more are essen
tially indispeusiblu to good farming and
for which larmers aro greatly indebted.
If the farmer bus to import this neces
sary uiacbiuery any considerable dis
tauce, it absorbs all his surplus products
aud sometimes more and thus he toils on
vear after year aud with the most rigid
economy no makes out little progress.
He often ruus behind.
The manufacturing industry of a
country must keep puce with its ugricul-
ural or it will fall behind iu the race of
prosperity. Oregon will never become a
wealthy state until she manufactures the
luost of her agricultural implements aud
also most of the articles of common every
day use in the farm home.
For illustration, compare Pennsylvania
aud New York with Illinois aud Iowa.
The two former states cannot campare as
to fertility of soil with the latter, and yet
the farmers are far mure wealthy on ac
count of their great manufacturing in
dustries. All the articles of farm use in
these states aro mado at home, thus sav
ing tho cost of fieight and au army of
middle men with interest on capital in
vested by those middle ineu aud insur
ance added to their protits.
The farmers of Douglas county practi
cally send thousands of dollars every
year to the eastern stales for farm im
plements that could ne manuiactureii in
the state for less money than is now paid
for them. Of course, it will require cap
itol lo build up manufacture in Oregon,
but unless it is tloue Oregou will make
slow progress iu tho race of proeiierity.
Another thing our larmers must iio io
protter better Ihuu now. itiey must
farm fewer acres and cultivate more thor
oughly. Lauds are Incoming impover
ished by continue. 1 succession ol crops
yearly without resuscitation either by
application of lorlili.ers or by resting to
allow the elcmeuts to restore their lauds
somewhat. No county ever did or ever
will grow wealthy that neglects its man
ufitcluriug intcH'Htd. Farmers, put that

The Crops.
From the weather bureao'a cri v bulle
tin for Sept. C, the following is taken :
The weather bas been unfavorable to
harvesting the late spring-sown wheat
aud oais; unfavorable to tbreehing, to
hops and boppickiog, and to tbe prone
crop. It has been favorable to late fruit
ami vegetables, to pasturages, and it
will enable plowing' to be commenced.
F roiu reports at band, it can not be said
that material damage has been done to
the wheat crop, though necessarily lo
that which is in shock in the open Held
damage will result; that iu stack is not
damaged to any extent. Iho percentage
ol damaged .grain is very small. The
graiu yet to be cut is not damaged, but
the delay may producetdainago. Tbretdi
iuir, of court), is at a standstill.
Hops aro in a questionable condition.
Picking is practicrlty susinded. Mold
is increasing; and in those yards where
no care was beetowed during the season,
the lioi aie about worthless; where
care wai given, they are in a fairly good
condition but few, however, will be en
tirely f.ee from mold. It is now esti
mated that not over half tbe hops grown
w ill be picked.
The prune crop has been to an extent
injured, by the rains cracking open tbe
prunes; this fault is more in the Willa
mette and Coast valleys, than io tbe
Umpquaand Rogue Kiver valleys; in
the latter two, the cracking .open is not
extensive. Prune drying continues.
