(ivneral dullness prevails, especially In the grain trade, wheat quotations being nominal, with no vessels in jwrt at present seeking charters aud tittle wheat offering, Wo quo to from the Commercial to show the situation with respect to wheat. Prices aro down, but taveral vessels aro duo, perhaps enough to load all tho grain that will need shipment! and freights iiiu.t Ims low to corresKnd with the outlook, Tho commencement of active work on rail roads will, be beneficial to the country at large) already considerable money Is put alloat in this valley and Umpqua for the pur chase of liortot to uso In such work and as, tho ecasoit proceeds no doubt great disburse ments wili tako plaoe and demand be con stant foe labor and general supplies, that will make trade lively- in PortUnd and amoug country merchants ami help the farmers gen erally, to means In proportion as thoy can sup ply thu wauts of those who labor. What benefits ono section Incidentally mutt help all. Wo'are on tho point of realising largely from stock aalei and from tho wool clip, which must bring millions Into Oregon and Washington within four mouthi. Tho coun try, with thete promises so near accomplish ment, ought to be prosperous, aud wo havo no iloubt will reallie a fair aulounot prosperity through the whole year of 1880. Fall town grain, though cut down by the Wiater, generally looks well,' and if the Sprlatj proves at all propopitiotis there will bo a big yield in all the Columbian region. It our farmers woald cemmenco aysteniatto cultivation and stick to it, they would be much better off la the end. ' From this weeks Commercial Reporter wt take the following! Tho market has retained a fairly steady tone notwithstanding buyers oIKsh movements and alto lower values abroad. This tone has been maintained by vessels arming, tuoredue aud light supply of valley w heat together with light oirering of Walla Walla. Oilers wero inadu for Walla Walla at 91.83 but held at Sl.W, this for Urge parcels. Valley has beeu (itlVred on the market but above buyer' view s. At tho close there it more inquiry tor valley, but quotations are difficult to give. Tho following veuolt havo been to nrrivo i Casma. 6ii oM, Liverpool; Martiuo, MXi, U.K. uuUlli Atnicl 60. U. K. The Hriti.lt bark Martha l'ulier, and Italian barque Madre both under charter have arrived, tne flrtt at '.' Od, nml tho latter at 60s for ordvre. There arc no changes in tho general mar kets except auothcr half cent on sugars, w'lich makes ono cont a pound advance iu two weolci, and a bettor price for California roll bnttor, there being no Oregon butter of that description to speak of. WOOL. Front tho U. S. Economist of Vobrr.arySlst wo tako m follows! , Our market continues to slintf great signs of activity and buoyancy. TJicro hat been tremendous heavy tales of Montovidco, Aus tralia, Cape, Mcstiza nnd other foreign wools made, to arrive, at prices costing OSo to 91.15 for tho scoured txjiind. Additional sales of mio million jtounus Montevideo and ona mil. lion )iounds Australia havo very recently boon effected to nrrivo, but not reported, at ligurcs uliicli tho buyers vnuld not consider for a moment hitherto. Thcro Is positively great scarcity of wool to supply tho pressing re quirements of manufacturers, and tho market baa all tho elements of strength with a strong upward tendency nl tho closo. Wo nro cor Uioly wending our way into tho now clip sea son on a high tide, and wo need great cir cumspection to guldo our actions. California wool was In good condition and tho Spring and Fall clips mot with ready salo. the Utter at remarkably high prlcot, leaving a stock at tho end of tho year in San Fran cisco of lest than half a million pounds, but a large stock of Fait wool in tho Eastern markott. I'lentiful rain, excellent food and the tirosnecta of hlnh nriccs will likely en sure a large and good clip the coming year. Oregon continuos to greatly incrcaao her production, having sent to market aboat 7,000,000 ibt, or ono-iiith more than latt year. Eastern wools wtro decidedly better in staple and condition, whilo tho Talley wools showed no improvement, and werooven worte than the previous year. Theto wools found an excellent market, and stocks wero quite exhausted at tho end of the year. The Walla Walla Union aartt "Competent Judges, men who mako it a business to ketp an account ot tho number ana condition ot the sheep between tho Cascades and lllue mountains, estimatos that the clio In that re gion will, this year, reach the very Urge amount of 4,600,000 pounds or 2,250 tons. That the wool clip will provo valuable this year is evident irom tne lact tnat tne com mon grade it to-day worth 30 centa per pound in this market, while the very best quality would bring 0 and 10 ceutt more per pound. A year age it was worth IS cent and lest per pound. BatlU Hark!. I.rviarooL, March If). Oresan Wheat. Tone of the market Dull. scarcely enough business doing to make a soar- ket.

Wi surrender alt the space we have to spare this week, to correspondence, and feel that this week's isstio contains much valuablo reading contributed by our friends. Tho lengthy communication on wheat growing, from our old friend, Mr. Ocorgo llclshaw, has especial merit, and touches ono of tho most practical points with farmers. Sovcral other Interesting communications fill this Issue, and make it ono of tho most valuablo wo havo over published. If more men and women would contributo from their experi ence to Inform tho public mind, tho results would bo beneficial to tho farming communi ty, as well as to tho Wiliamettk Farmer. Wo especially ask that communications shall treat plainly of proctlcat matters or state local facts worth publication, and wo cannot luvo too many such. WeatheFHeport for Fobruary, 1880.

Hop Cnltaro Wo have" frequently rclerred to tho cultiva tlon ot hops at a profitable industry; and no tlclug, that the article it now quoted at 25 to 32 cents per pound in San Francisco, tho sub ject is again in order. For several years the price has been low but about as rtmuaerativo as anything olse aud notwithstanding depres sing prices tho area of hop yard In tho Wil lamette yalley has constantly increased. There Is no Inttcr.ormoro promising hop Held inure gon than Jackson county and certainly any productions that will command from 13 to 33 cents per pound will bear transportion. lpe rich land along the streams, easy ot irriga tion, are well adapted to bops, and we venture the assertion that an acre of land will produce twenty times the valso in this product that it will in wool and givo employment to more la bor. Kveu the home market for hops would afford considerable employment but no ore sees fit to engage in the business. The facili ties for curing in our warm climate would give our product a preference over that of moiater climates and we believo the culture ot hops would be quite as profitable at wool growing and be without the many uncertainties inci dent to the latter industry. Will some of our ftrmen make a small venture! The "Will aukttk Farmkh" can on application furnish the requisite information regarding price ot roots, plautlug and cuttivation.JacktonvilIo Sentinel.
