25 pounds, and such another luxurious

The supervisors of the various road
districts should take advantage of the
present condition of the ground and do
such plowing and scraping as are needed
while the soil is in a condition to pack.
The roads between this city and points
n the interior are in many places sadly
in need of such work and, if it is
neglected, farmers will suffer when they'
come to wheat hauling and, if delayed,
as it is generally, till the ground again
becomes dry plowing and scraping will
be of very little service.

Kansas is havine a hard time. Last

Mr. and Mrs. Henry Williams have re
turned from a camping-out trip to Yak-ii
ima City and the Ellensburg country,
whither they went two weeks' ago for the
benefit of Mrs. Williams' health, which
is much improved in consequence. Mr.
Williams returns satisfied that there is
no place "like Wasco- county. He says
he would not give The Dalles for all the
country north of the Columbia river.
Ellensburg is as pretty a town as he
ever saw but he never saw a town with
as many empty houses, f He counted
eight empty dwelling houses in one
short street, and the remark will apply
to the whole city. There is more life in
The Dalles today than in all that country.

Mr. Leslie Butler returned this morn
ing from Hood River where ' he had
gone to attend the dedicatory services In
the United Brethern church at, that
place, yesterday. The new church which
is a model of neatness and good taste was
finished and furnished at a cost of about
(3000. Of this sum $1206 remained as
a debt on the society, but the efforts of
the brethern, yesterday, were crowned
with success and the society renews its
conflict with the powers of evil with a
balance of $94.30 on the right side of
the ledger. Bishop Hott delivered the
dedicatory sermon in the "morning and
Bishop Castle preached in the-- evening.
There were besides these a special service
at 10 o'clock a. m. and Sunday school "at
4 o'clock p. m. All the services were!
well attended and the preaching was
listened to by a highly appreciative au
dience. Besides the two clergymen al
ready mentioned the presiding elder of
of the district Rev. Geo. Sickafoose was
also present as well as the pastor of the
church Rev. C. W. Wells. Revival ser
vices will be continued in the new build
ing during the present week.
A trip to the Tygh Ridge country on
Saturday has given ocular proof of the
condition of the crops in that fine grain
raising district. From present indica
tions we should judge that nearly one
fourth of the spring grain never germi
nated till the late rains, and had it not
been for them would never have made
anything. . We never knew the grounds
to be so well soaked at this time of year,
and we never saw grain presenting a
healthier color; at the same time the
late sowed grain, since it did not germi
nate equally, presents, for the present, a
spotted appearance which, however, will
disappear within the next month. For
tunately there is very little volunteer
grain in that neighborhood. In fact a
ride through the Tygh Ridge country
will convince any man, if further proof
is necessary that it pays to farm well.
We saw a field of barley and whent,
sowed in the spring, on summer fallow,
on the ranch of Mr. John Bolton that,
backward as the season has been, is as
fine as any one wants to see.. On the
whole the rains came not a moment too
soon. Had they not come the crop fail
ure would have been greater than that
of two years ago. After looking at the
grass one wonders there is any grain left.
The open prairie range is as bare and
dry as it usually is in September but all
will be changed in another month, and
with any ordinary weather during the
next six weeks Tygh Ridge will harvest
a fine crop.
