Judge Blakeley who had secured him a
good home with Mr. H. W. Wells, and
the little fellow who had been badly

having a peaceful, pleasant home in the
green fields and beneath the fine skies
of Eastern Oregon.
It seems that we were mistaken yes
terday in saying that Tom Kelly dined
with Senator Dolph. It waa our old
friend Robert Kelly, he of the sheriff's
office, and formerly of Kingsley', he was
the self same man. ' Robert did the
honors of the occasion in his inimitable
style, until the senator. pulled a card on
him and told him he would like to issue
him an insurance policy. Then Robert
took a.tumble, two of them and still the
boys won't quit on him.
The band ot wild cattle which has
been in the habit of ranging on Joe and
Fawn creeks, branches of Agency creek,
in the coast range have changed their
range, so hunters 'say, who have been
looking for them. This band of cattle
has ranged in the Cascades' for nearly
twenty years and has weathered the
worst winters during that period with
ease. Those killed by hunters in the
spring have been found fat and tender.
The valley cattle as a rule are poor when
spring comes. These wild cattle are
8P
uch hardier than domestic stock and
are as shy and hard to come upon as
deer.

Crop Weather Bulletin No S
Following is the report of the Oregon
state weather service for Eastern Oregon :
Weatheb : A few light showers or
sprinkles of rain fell, but not sufficient
to lay the duet. The winds have been
dry and of a velocity higher than usual.
The maximium temperatures have
ranged from 48 to 72deg. The minimum
from 34 to 52 degrees and below the
freezing point south of . the. Blue moun
tains. - . ' '
Cbops : The lack of sufficient rainfall
is already being felt. The ground is dry
and spring sown grain " needs rain . to
cause it to germinate. Dae to the dry
season, and to other causes, many far
mers have been prevented from sowing
as much grain as usual. In some coun
ties this decrease will be considerable.
In Umatilla and Union counties the
grain crop appears to be in the best con
dition at the present time. The marked
deficiency in rainfall will seriouslw injure
the grain crop unless copious rains should
occur in May and 'June. ' The rainfall
of these two months determines the
cereal crop of the year. In the Colum
bia river valley the fruit crop ia, so far,
uninjured by weather conditions; the
fruit trees are in full bloom, in some sec
tions over their blooming period. The
trees at present indicate large yields.
The berries are growing and thriving
and in good condition. Vegetables are
having only a fair growth, needing
moisture and warmth. Lambing con
tinues with success. The shearing of
sheep, has commenced and some small
lots of wool have been received at The
Dalles, Pendleton and Heppner, all of as
good quality as was ever clipped. To
the. south of the mountains, except in
the Grand Ronde valley which is more
advanced,the fruit trees are swelling their
bads. The range grass is good and stock
in good condition. While the fruit crop
is very promising, the cereal crop is in
danger from drouth. '

High Prices for Beef.
Oregon stockmen are profiting by the
advance in the price of beef, caused by
sharp Chicagoans getting a corner on
cattle and control of the mrrket. ' There
is a great scarcity of cattle in the East
at present, and while prices have been
steadily going up, it is impossible to ob
tain beeves. Kansas and Nebraska had
no corn to feed cattle last winter, it
was a winter of desolation and suffering
west of the Mississippi river. There
was no time to think of cattle, and many
were frozen to 'death. Several weeks
ago agents of Eastern stockyards ap
peared in Eastern Oregon and , com
menced going over the ranges, with a
view of baying what . stock they could.
Prices went up as the activity of the
buyers increased, and not only have
thousands of beeves been bought, but
agents have been sent to the Willamette
valley to gather up what stock can be
found there. With the sjse in the price
of beef there came an extra demand for
mutton, and in Crook county as high as
$3.25 has been paid for good mutton
sheep. ' '' :
