The barn of the widow Chandler was limned

contents, consisting of four or live tons ot hay
and various fanning implements. How the
lire was stilted no one knows. As the barn
was only 2o feet fiom the wood house, which
was joined to tho dwelling house it was with
the utmost difficulty that the last named
houses were saved. No regular firemen ever
showed moie determined pluck or gre-ater
cioluess than the men of Foiest Glove, who
fought back tho llames from the imperiled

Letter from Sheridan, Yamhill Co.
Kditor Willamcttn Farmer:
My neighlmrssiy I misrepresented theciop
prospects ainuinl Sheridan; they say the crops
will be much better than I represented. Xow
I think if they will take into consideration all
the Fall and Spring wheat that has been cut
for hay my est mate will be about correct. I
am willing to. ackniiwledje that there is some
.as tine gram as 1 evet siw. I have Summer
fallow that will mike 10 to fiO bushels to the
acre, and I have wheat sown on stubble that
will not make more than 10 bushels; I still
claim that 1 ,un ne-.ar correct iu my estimate.
The rains of lat week dunaged hay that was
out in the fields and there was hundreds of
tons cut. Hay sells at St to 55 in the field,
per ton. I have been 33 yars in the State
and never saw as heavy rain at the time of tho
year as fell last week. The weather is line
now; the sclf-biudcrs aie pronounced almost a
failuic. B. B. Bnvx-sov.
Xiite Wo add a word in connection with
Mr. Bransnn'rt crop repotts; to suggest that
his field of summer fallow that will yield 10
to.10 bushels to the aero is a fairer test of the
soil and elimite and the producing capacity
of his land, than the stuiiblo land, which is,uo
doubt, full with weeds and what wheat theie
is choked with wild oats. One shows proper
cultivation and the other does not. Many
coi respondents notice this same dilTeience, and
quite a number charge it to tho right cause.

To the credit of the O. it. A N. Co. be it
said that it has made a further deduction in
down freights. Wheat fiom llluo Mountains
aud Milton station was formerly 4.1 and 4.'l
cents per cwt., respectively to Portland.
These have been reduced to a uniform rate of
40 cents per cwt,; thus making a saving of .1
cents per bushel from lilue Mountain to
I'oitland. Fieight on wheat fiom Hiiniuous'or
Cold Spring Landing, has been reduced to HO
cents per 100 IUs. Our faiiueis will bail with
deligit this lediiction, whn h is vii til illy a
saving of no much. Such voluntary niK nn
tho part of the compiny make in feel bko
levelling our dread of the monopoly, for tlnv
need not do so unless thi'V bk". However
wn will greet every go ul tiiuve ippiovmglv,
and giowl at evcijthing of u 'outiaiy hind.
