Since our last issue the weather has been »puto -,'oo«l for harvesting, t ’onsidt rable spring grain in this county was at that time either stand­ ing in the shock or still uncut. The rniu did no material damage to the cr o p s only delaying work. "With sunshine and drying winds, the grain was soon in good condition for harvesting and this week will see the wheat crop in the granary. Wash­ ington county, according to all ac­ counts,is ahead of the rest of the Val­ ley in the gathering of her crops. Mr. Scott, who has been up the Val­ ley informs us that the rain had been much heavier above than here, Mari­ on, Linn, and other counties having suffered heavy rains, while in l'o lk , Yamhill and Washington counties the rain was quite light. Mr. Scott says that in Linn county half the grain is still unharvested. And tho same may l e said o f Marion and Benton counties. In Polk county the harvest is farther advanced than in Yamhill. In tl 10 last named county our informant says that a con­ siderable part of the crops is still in the field. The prospect now is that the whole harvest will he saved in good order. Henry Buxton who lias raised a large crop this year and who has )>een running a thresher in this coun­ ty states that the average yield per acre in this county will 1 h * fully up to that of last year.
