strange for our Oregon climate, as tho
rains have come every week, with oc

Crop Prospect.
Ciik'aho, .luno 24. From reports 10
eeived by tho Farmers Itoviow as to tho
wheat prospects, there is a promito of
full average crops, but not an enormous
yield. Tho average yield promises to
equal that of 1883, with increased acreage.
Keportu from Dakota aro uniformly of a
favorable character. Minnesota has a
promise of 75 per cent, of an averago crop.
Wisconsin gives promise of a full average
crop. The prospects in Ohio, Indiana
and Illinois are only fair, and have shown
no improvement since the last report.
The yield in -Michigan promises to fall
under tho yield of last year. Hex)rU
from Missouri are discouraging in tone
In Kansas the outlook it cood. but not
