here that can be taken as homesteads,
The land is that which has been held bv

Crop-Weather Bulletin.
The first of the series of bulletins for
the present season, issued by the-Oregon
State Weather service, has been received
by this office. These bulletins convey
much valuable intelligence for the pro
ducers. The following is the report for
Eastern Oregon : ' '' . ,
Weather The weather conditions in
eastern sections during the winter were
similar to those encountered in the west
ern portions ; the weather was cool and
the precipitation excessive. The-pre
cipitation in the form of snow in. the
counties of Union, Klamath, Lake and
Harney. . In the Columbia river valley
counties mostly rain fell. Since the 20th
of - March the sunshine has been-much
more than the average, ' showers have
been less frequent and the temperature
warmer. j -.
Crops The season is later than the
average. Oool weather has hindered
progress, in vegetation. This condition
is more noticeable in the counties south
and east of the Columbia river valley,
where the presence of snow has delayed I
farming. operations. However, farmers
hail with delight the present favorable
conditions, knowing that the moist con
dition of - the soil will produce flattering
results. In counties where farming is
done by 'irrigation, the ground is wet
deeper than it has been for ' years.
Much moisture is expected from melting
snows. ..'.-''.. . i'
Wbeatt 'the staple product of the Col
umbia valley, is in the best condition
known for years. The prospects for a
good wheat crop in the Columbia and
Walla Walla valleys -are excellent.
Stock wintered : in good condition.
Horses and sheep have been turned into
the hills, tmt cattle are still being fed.
Some peach trees have commenced to
bloom along the Columbia river. 1
