Clruen is loniurkubly good, ami pusturM

Our market!) are unsottlod, with no
i;raia to tdiip, and no interest, immedi
ate, iu tho foreign markot. Our mills
generally have in store all tho wheat
they need for local trade, and prices hold
up fairly, i-alem mills pay 80 ots. n
bushel.
A prominent dealer in wool of Port
laud, being ivskcd what tho prodpeoU are
for fair prices for tho now clip, informed
tho Oregonian that choico Eastern Ore
gon wools are worth only IU to 21 cents
at tho Kust, Average grades are wiling
now iu Norton and Eastern centers at
about IS cents, which gives nmnufnotur
era their Mock at about 62 to fit conta

a drug iu tho markot. Some Bitten liavo
Uvn ulliTted during tho past ten duya
at 16 to 17 cents por pouud at Hoatou.
Assuming that freight rates since tho
ausponuion of section 1, of tho Inter
State Coiumorco bill are to bo about 1
cents' per pouud, with othor charge
added, such as commission, grading, in
surance, hauling, etc., wool must tiocc
sarily bo low. Iu San Frnuoifco wools
nro accumulated and no saloa of any im
portance huve been ellooted. Savoral
lots of Eastern Oregon wool nro now
held in that city. So far only a few lots
for Portland morchnnts havo boon dis

Crop Report.
Chicago dispatch of April 21, saya:
"Tho weekly crop roport of tho Fitment
Heviow Ih as follow : Kaina havo ma
terially improved crop conditions in
Kansas, Missouri, Kentucky, Illinois
nnd Indiana, nnd particularly has it
improved tho outlook for winter wheat,
whilo iu Ioivn, Nebraska, Miunoiota,
mid DakoU, seeding of spring wheat
has proceeded under gcnorally favorable
conditions. However, winter wheat ox
eept iu Missouri, ia falling gcnorally be
low that of last year. Vory fow coun
ties of Ohio rojHirt tho prospect of an
average crop. In Indiana tho percen
tages of condition rungo higher und gen
erally run from 85 per cent, to 90 per
cent, of an averago. In Wisconsin tho
average of countiee rciorting this week
rangea from 75 to 90 por cent. Thero
havo boon lino rains throughout nearly
all of Kansas, relieving the serious
drouth and improving the outlook for
wiuter wheat. The averago of tho con
dition falls somewhat below that of last
year. KeporU from Iowa and Minne
sota iudicato full average acroago sown
to spring whoat, and an increase of
acreage iu Nebraska and Dakota."
Tastes and fashions in fruit difl'er, and
even if they did not, no man who sets
out a young orchard is supposed to
know everything about tho varieties ho
has planted. Hy the timo they como
into bearing, or ovon boforo, he may
learn that tho varieties moat numerous
ly planted may bo worthless oithor from
unproductiveness or tho indifferent qual
ity of tho fruit. Tho evil is not irreiura
bio, and tho sooner tho remedy is ap
plied tho hotter will bo tho result. Wo
once know an orchard in which nearly
all tho treea wore origioually eet with
tha Nortnern bpy apple, i licse were so
slow in comber into boaring that tho
ownor top-grafted half of them with
lialdwius wueu ultoou years old. In livo
years uioso topgraitott nail borne
ouougu to pay all tuo extra cost, anil lor
the ground they stood ou, while the
original Northom Spy grafts on tho ro-
uuiuuuir uaii iwarvejy uorue au uppie.
Hut tho top-grafting au old tree the
Northom Spy is ono of tho best and
moat speedily produotivo varioties that
can bo set.
Wall Walla Union: ft ride over
eighteen miles of our valley showed tho
fall wheat to vo about a toot high and
vory thrifty. During tho drivo wo
counted sorenty odd plows, seeders and
u&rrowd at work. It looks as it farmers
intended putting' every aero in wheat
thLi year.
Horses are in good order in Crook
county, for tho season, having como
through with vory little loss and quito
freo from disoaBO. Tho hoaviest loss
was 5000 out of 7000 owned by Geo. H.
Thurston, iu the Silver Lako region.
They had no feed provided and no good
rango to feed on.
D. Porter left tho Coourd'Alono mines
over a month ngo. Tho fourth day ho
shot an elk and that night was snowod
in. He mado a cavo in tho snow, used
n hatchet to chop wood, ato elk meat
for four weeks and then got outeafo and
nlive. Tho elk meat pulled him through.
