Guard Grapes From Frost.
North Yakima. Wash.. Sept 22.
Owners of vineyards in this section are
beginning to adopt the orchard beatera
to keep the frost out of their vineyards.
Those who have used them report ex
cellent success. There has been occa
sion to use the heaters the last few
nlghta because the temperature has
gotten down to the danger point In
every case where the heaters have been
used there has been no damage. It is
believed they will come into general
use in the vineyards In this section.
40 PER CEHT SHORT
According to advices reveived in this
nltv from w S. Offner. the prominent
onion authority of Walla Walla, the late
onion crop or mat aeciion win oe nouui
40 oer cent short. The late crop was
attacked and damaged by thrips. Early
onion crop of the walla Walla section
amounts to about 260 cars, moat of
them already sold.
Fear of frost in the Beaverton sec
tion and other Willamette valley places
will cause earlier pulling of onions thi
season than expected. According to A.
J. Fanno, president of the Confederated
Onion Growers' association, pulling will
start in his section tomorrow for the
early crop while the late crop will be
pulled about October 16.

Union Stockyards, Stockdale, Sept. 22.
As was iold yesterday in Tha Journal,
there was a continuation of the dis
crimination agalnat poor quality today.
Thla may ahow more In the hog mar
ket than in other lines, but the dis
crimination was so plain that anyone
could ee it
Feeders and stockers are not now
wanted in the hog market here at this
time and those who make shipments of
this character do so with the certain
knowledge that their ahlpments will be
looked upon with disfavor by those who
buy and sell.
While almost any quaiuy oi iiveaiocn
can be sold at any time providing tho

county now pays tha sheriff 11 cent
per meat lie served 11.117 meals from
March to September, a total Of 14114.14.
There Is no means of telling what th
meal cost th aherlff. If th culinary
department Is run as economically as
tiie county court ran It his personal
profit Is th difference between 11
cents and 7 1-1 cents on each meal
Addles In the cost of meals for th
guard, tha total cost ot meals during
th six months of county court man-
agement was 11601.74, while th cost
for th sain service under alx months!
of Sheriff Stevens has been 14551.01.
Still another comparison la ahown In
the net coat taking Into consideration
the um -received from the city for the
board of city prisoners. 'Th city pay
l-s cents per meai, ana on tnis tne
county made a small profit The net
coat under the county court rule of six
months was 11616.99. and under an
equal period of th sheriff 13858.77, or
12142.78 more for th sbsrlffs six
month.
A comparative statement ot th
amount of rock crushed during the six
months from March to August thla year
ana tne corresponding montns or 1901
show that tho aherlff has fallen behind
the pace set by the county court From
March to August, 1908. the production
was 18.463 cublo yards, and for th
like month this year 17,061 oubio
