Rain began falling last e'vtning and continued off and on during the night, about .48 of an inch having fallen. It was one of those warm, pleasant rains that are just what the country needs. It will help the grass wonderfully, and a few warm days now will make the hills take on a still more vernal hue. However, on the higher altitudes like the Klickitat bills there was a very s'ight coating of snow. The rain settled the peculiar condition of the atmosphere which most people thought was filled with dust. A great many theories have been ad vanced as to the cause of the dust in the atmoephere here yesterday, but the ma jority of the people are of the opinion that it came from somewhere m Eastern Oregon while the minority claim that it was wafted to our vicinity from the central states. However, from all re ports received from Sherman county it is a fact that they had a - terrific wind storm there on Sunday.

The caeh buyers are more numerous than they have been for many years and the number of gasoline launches employed far exceeds that of any other eeason. Competition is so keen among them that many of the older and most responsible buyers are talking of quitting the business. They say the new buyers resort to all kinds of schemes to secure salmon. They operate on the river from Tongue point up to the mouth ot the Willamette and on both sidefl of the river. They meet the boats on the river and pay cash for the salmon. This is a convenience to fisher men, as by disposing of their fish in this manner they save several hours which would be consumed in pulling to the canneries to deliver their catch. Some of the launches are in the employ of the cold storage and private canneries, and otten pay nan a cent a pound in excess of the regular price in order to induce the fishermen to sell them their fish.

Eastern Oregon has a great divereity of soils and altitudes, and how to make its bleak and bare spots produce and put up for their war taxes is one of the laudable ambitions of the O. B.& N. Co., which is making persistent efforts to develop the natural resources of the country. The problem of making the rich areas produce is no problem at all for they show for themselves, and need only the necessary working. Taken in the aggregate, the unproductive spots comprise a large area, and if they can lie made to do their share of the gen eral work, the breadstuff j of the world will show an im.T.ense increase. ' At Telocassett, Grande Ronde Valley, the O. R. & N. Co., is having three and a half acres sown to ten varieties of grasses, and when the survival of the fittest shall show which of the grasses is the most successful in defying sterility, drouth and tempest, that kind will be pread pretty promiscuously througout similar localities. A. B. Lckenby has charge of the seeding. He is an expert on grasses, and agrostologist for the Pacific coast division of the United States department of agriculture. Among these ten varieties, the kinds that inspire the most confidence is Brown grass. It Is a kind that refuses to be Bat down upon by wind or weather. Mr. Leckenby is going to supervise for the O. R. & N. Co. the setting out of fifty sacks of Bermuda grass roots that the traffic department has just received from Freeno, Cal. They are to be set out at Bigzs, Waso. Grants, Blalock, Arlington, Wallula, Riparia, Walla Walla and Rowena. A special effort is to be made to get this Bermuda grass to grow on sand-land along the O. R. & N. lines, where it might serve the double purpoee of anchoring the drifting sands and affording good pasture for stock. Bermuda grass generally defies drought and makes a thick sod, and keeps ever lastingly green. The roots may be pulled up, hung on a clothes-line for a few weeks, then replanted, and they will come up smiling and make green the landscape. A stray root fell off a brakebeam In the Portland Terminal Company's yard two years ago, and al though it has been constantly kept awake nights by switch engines and owl trains, it has spread to a patch seven feet square now, and looks pros perous, and as though glad it is alive.
