Our rainy wontlier continues with 11 imwprot Hint it will limi nwliilo longor. Thoro lmn boon a very heavy rainfall Hincu Monday. Some of tliis rain hna virtitwl California, inuoh to tlio mitUfuo lion of wheat growum ami dealers, who worn holding hack wliijmients for fear of a dry year and light cropa. California lms not mifl'eretl from mvero drouth for yeara hack and in likely to have rain fall enough to bring forward tlio wheat so as lo yield fairly. The im prom-inn pro dueed by recent ohoncrii and nionpecl of heavy rain in tho near futuro)lum been to causa n decline of He per cout.il in Kan Franoiseo, which is felt also iu Port land. Foreign advice continue linn, with no change. Valley wheat is quot el if 1.10 hut n trillo more Iuih heon paid. OalH have declined a littlo because the California rains givo conlhlenco tit croid theic. (lood tihippiug hrinjj 47 tQ t8c, and really choice coinmnudH a nuiall ad vaneo on those llgnron. The whv.it market ahowa no change from last week, although it se'cnis that at Chicago on Wcdncddiiy lasl, they hiul.a littlo Hurry in tho wheat marts, occasioned by tho news that the California crop was bound (o ho short, aa they hud no rain, Hut by dispatches tohand on Thuruday it would ecm that rain had fallen and was still falling iu San Francisco, and tho uorth cm country vrns having nil tho rain noeded.

LET THE tTATE DO IT. Wo heartily ondorso tho proposition that tho Stato of Oregon shall undortako tho construction of a ship railway at Tho Dalles. Ills within our means as a Stato, and tho object is so important that it warrants hoiuo riak on tho part of Oregon to sccuro it. Hut thnro is Hinall risk, and tho Stato has means on hand sufllcient. Lot us do this, to show the general govornmont that we aro in oar nest, and can help ourselves if the national government ignoios us. The engineers aay the work can be done in a year, and by that time tho work at the Cascades will bo complotcd, and give uh a frco river. Oregon has a good credit, and can borrow cheaply, and can afl'ord to upend a million in its own bohalf, rather than wait tlio alow motions of otllcial rod tape cniiHtruction, ospocially as wo cannot get a dollar appropriated for tho work by Congress. ''The Lord helps those who help thcniHolves." Tho Chicago Farmers' Jtoviow says: Tho tenor of tho reports from the winter whcatbolt continues to bo generally fa vorable. Though tho fly has appeared in varlouB counties of Ohio and Indiana, no serious injury is as yot indicated. Tho icports from Kansas aro not as. en couraging as one month ngo nnu a number of southern Illinois and north ern Ohio and Indium counties say tho plant is looking feeble. Mne-tcnths of tho counties, however, throughout tho entire belt find the copy good find in lino condition. Tho movement of corn is nioderatoly free in Missouri, but slow in Kansas. Nebraska and Illinois. Fivo Illinois and 10 Iowa counties report this week that tho corn supply is so short as to prevent any shipment.

How important to our present happiness and future usefulness tho blessing of good health and a sound con dition are, wo ran only roali.u them when we have lost them, and then it is too late to repair tho damage. Not withstanding those facts, thousands of persons daily jeopardize not only their health, but their livce, and tho healths and liven of others, by using articlos in the preparation of their food the purity and healthfulucsH of which they know nothing. Perhaps a few cents may have been saved, or it may havo been more convenient to obtain tho articles used, and the hoiuekooper takes the respon sibility and probably will never know the mieehief that has been wrought. Pater familias may havo spells of headache, tho children may havo lout their appeti tes, or look pale j if bo, the true cause is rarely suspectod. The weather, tho lack of out-door air, or sonio other causc.e'a given, and tho uuwholsomo, poisonous sybtem of adulterated food goes on. Next to tho flour, which should Ik) made of good, sound wheat and not ground too fine, tho yeast or baking powder, which furnished tho rising proporties, fs of tho grea'oH importance, and of tho two we prefer baking powder, and always uso the ltoynl, as wo thoreby retain tho oiigiiial properties of the wheat, 110 fermentation taking place. Tho action of tho lloyal ll.iking Powder upon the dough is simply to swell it and form littlo cells through every prrt These cells aie filled with carbonic acid gas, which passos off during tho process of baking. Tho ltoyal is mado from puro grapo acid, and it is the action of this acid upon highly carbonized bicarbonate of Hivla that generates tho gass alluded to : and thcso ingredients are ho puro and eo jwricctly luted, tested and udaptctl to each other, that tho action is mild and permanent, and is continued during tho whole time of baking, and no residue of poisonous ingredients remains to uuder tniuo tho health, no heavy bisouits, no sour bread, but if directions are follow ed, evory article will bo found sweet and wholesome, Mr. E. W. Allen, of Portland No 171 Front Street, has issued a catalogue of his seeds. It is a complete affair, tho way to plant each seed is explained.
