A RICH REGIOX." : ' "
Sherman county never, In all her his
tory, looked half so yell as she does to
day and the prospects for an immense
grain crop were never so flattering. Less
. than twelve years ago the whole county,
from the river to its southern boundary
line, was one vast stock range, covered
with waving bunch grass and immense
herds of horses, cnttle and sheep. Now
the county is one vast grain field, either
in crop or summer fallow, and, as
viewed from some advantageous hill-top,
presents a magnificent mosaic of green
and red. " The farmers are generally
prosperous. The fine crops of last sea
son and good prices for grain, placed
many of them in easy circumstances,
but the great desideratum is railroad
connection with the head of navigation
on the Columbia, so that they may have
the benefit of lower freights for their ex
ports. The farmers of Sherman county
are, as one man, in favor of the dalles
portage; and no man, no matter what his
politics, whose record on this question is
open to doubt, could gain their support
for any office in their gift. Grain raising
here is reduced to a science and is gener
ally done on a large scale. He is a small
farmer who has not as much as 200 or
300 acres of wheat. Smith Brothers,
one of whom is candidate on the demo
cratic ticket for joint senator, have 4,500
acres in cultivation. At present they
. . . .
nave iourieen gang plows at worlc, turn-
jug gior mi average oi Bixiy acres a Clay,
and expect to summer fallow 3,500 acres.
The larger portion of thir lands lie across
the John Day river, in Gilliam county.
G.. D. .Wood worth has 1,600 acres in -cultivation,
and this year it is nearly all in
-summer fallow. Medlr Brothers have
-about 1,200 acres, Hildebrand and Han
sou about' t, 200 acres, B. F. Medler
:and John', Medler have about 1,000
acres each,' A. D. McDonal about 900
acres, James . McMillan 900 acres, Mc
Dermott Brothers have 1J20 acres, Sink
& Sons about 2,000 acres, C. C.'Huck
640 acres ; Dnine Brothers about 1,200
-acres, Dejl Porter 1,120 acres, Murchie
Brothers 1,760 acres, Mrs. J. McPherson
4 ,000 acres, John Johnson 640 acres,
Sexton Brothers 960 acres, John K.
-Stocking about 1,000, J. E. Forbis 960
wcres, Mike Smith 640 acres, W. H.
Biggs about 640 acres, Froebe Brothers
1,600 acres, and any. number of others
cultivating from a section downwards.
Scarcely any spring grain is ra;sed, and
from what the writer has seen of the
county, during a drive from The Dalles
to "VVascov it would seem that fully half
of the cultivated lands are either plowed
Or bei ag plowed for summer fallow. The
average product per -acre .of twheat for
the entire county is estimated at twenty
bushels.! Mr. John Smith' estimates
that there are 80,000 acres of land in cul-
tivatiAn tk MMni .1 "11 .

much as 150,000 acres more fit for culti
vation. Good improved farms can be
had af from $9 to $12.50 per acre. Ex
Senator W, H. Biggs of Wasco, who is
handling real estate, informs your re
iporter that he has about 3,000 acres of
choice farming lands for sale at these
pricea.'""". . ' ; ,

Mr. J. P. Blaize, an ' extensive . real
estate dealer in Des Moines, Iowa, nar
rowly escaped one of the severest at
tacks of pneumonia while in the north
ern part of that state during a recent
blizzard, says the Saturday Review. Mr.
Blaize had occasion to drive 1 several
miles during the storm and was so thor
oughly chilled that he was unable to
get warm, and inside of an hoar after
is return he was threatened with a
severe case of pneumonia or lung fever.
Mr. Blaize sent to the nearest drug store
and got a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, of which he had often heard,
and took a number of large doses.- He
says the effect was wonderful and that
in a short time he was breathing quite
easily. He kept on taking the medicine
and the next day was able to come to
Des Moines. Mr. Blaize regards his
cure as simply wonderful. 50 cent
bottles for sale by Blakeley & Houghton,

TO THE TRADE AND CONTRACTORS.
IDESIBE IT TO BE .UNDERSTOOD
that I have appointed Wm. Butler
& Co. exclusive agents for the sale of the
"Oregon" lime, at The Dalles, and sur
rounding country. Other parties have,
through surreptitious and unbusinesslike
methods, obtained a small quantity of
this lime, .which may naturally cause
the idea- that Butler & Co.- are not the
exclusive agents of these goods. -: -tJBF"
Such, however, is not the fact,
and further stock of this article cannot
be obtained from others - than Wm.
Butler & Co. The trade, however, -will
not lose sight of the fact that the great
strifeto obtain the Oregon lime brother
dealers proves . conclusively that . the
vregon- is tne Destiime in tde market.
