Last Tuesday, we were visited by a
heavy gale, which blew down fences,
trees and scattered shingles off of barn
roofs in all directions..
Those present at the ball on Christmas

Mrs. Strickland who some time ago
received a stroke of paralysis, received
another stroke December 13th, from the
effects of which she died December 14th.
All her children were with her in her
last hours, except the youngest daughter
Martha Kelly of Lafayette, wh coming
to see her sick mother,' met the proces
sion going to the cemetery, her grief was
unutterable.; Mrs. ' Strickland was a
good and most affectionate mother, and
her departure is a hitter sorrow to the
children who have the heartfelt sym
pathies of ail who know them. '
There are two cases ot .measles re
ported in our settlement. . Those that
have not had the experience this dread
disease affords, may have the oppor
tunity before they complete their rounds.
Miss Edna Driver at present lies quite
j sick with what seems to be a stroke of
paralysis.
I Mrs Elsie Harvey has taken her two
! daughters to Dufur, to attend the Dufur
school. Misses Neva and Laura are two
bright little girls, and we hope will
meet the approval of their teacher and
gain the respect of the school.
We see by the market quotations in
the "Chronicle" that wheat still de
mands a goed price, the cause of which
seems to be the demand and scarcity of
this cereal. ' The ukase issued by the
Russian government seems to have stim
ulated the market quite perceptibly. The
Russian ukase forbidding the export of
breadstuffs from the empire in connec
tion with the known fact that there is a
shortage in the wheat surplus the world
over, seems to have startled the great
grain centers, and prices have advanced
through channels of speculation as well
as through the actual need and demand
of breadstuffs' for the impoverished
sufferers.
Taking the statistics- given by Wood
Davis, the Kansas statistician, concern
ing the shortage of wheat, and rye the
world over, and as Secretary Friedlander
of the Produce Exchange and California
Board association says there will be only
00,000 tons of surplus wheat at the end
of the year 1891 in the United States.
It seems by these authorities, the world
is shorter of breadstuffs at .present than
has been known for many vears past. If
this be the case how many years . will it
take to replace the surplus that was on
hand at the beginning of the year '91
and will be consumed on account of the
deficiency of crops this vear. It seems
prevalent that by'the time another crop
is ready to be harvested, "unless it be
an unusual heavy . crop," the demand
and need of the cereals for breadstuffs,
will be as great or greater that it is at
the present time. If this be true the
price of wheat will be governed accord
ingly and may go still higher than it
now is or has been, and if it proves to be
thus the farmer will naturally be in
clined to sow more wheat ; consequently
the acreage sown will be larger than has
ever been in Oregon before. .

It is not often an article of this kind'
appears but this paper thinks it is its
dnty to unearth some of the happenings
that are taking place in this city. A

home expecting to find dinner awaiting
to eatisfv his ravenous appetite, but in
stead he found his wife had gone and
left behind this note.
My Dear Husband :
It i3 with tears in my eyes that I
write this, but your continued thought
lessness prompts me to fake this rash
step. You have been a perfect husband
with one exception, you have repeatedly

am going to quit you.

A Preventive for Croup.
We want every mother fo know that
croup can be prevented. ; True croup
never appears, without a warning. The
first symptom is hoarseness;, then the
child appears to. have taken a cold or a
cold may have accompanied the hoarse-:
ness from the start. After that a pecul
iar ' rough ' cough is developed, which is
followed by tho croup. The time to act
is when the child first becomes hoarse ;
a few doses of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy will prevent the attack. Even
after a rough cough has appeared the
disease mav be prevented by ui.ing this
remedy as directed. It has never been
known to fail. 25 cent, 50 cent and $1
