CROPS AND WEATHER,
Report of United States department of
Bgrioultnre, climate and orop bulletin of
tbe weather bureau, Oregon section, for
the week ending Monday, April 3, 1899:
Thia Vim no the initial issue of tbe
WoAblv Climate and Oroo Bulletin of
Oregon for tbe year 1899, wbioh is com
piled from reports of over 200 oorreapon
ents in different sections of the state, it
gives in addition, a saiamsry of the past
six months.
October. The weather was oool and
dry. conditions favorable lor fruit drying
and general farm work. Plowing and
seeding progressed satisfactorily. Grass

stook oouDlry.
November. Plowing and seeding
war a nntivAlv ens-sired in during tbe
month. Grain sown in the dust in Sept
ember and October east of the Cascades
was well packed down by the November
rains, and, by the end of the month bad
mud trend orowth. Tbe rainfall was
flaflrtinni east of the Casoades and
range food for the stook was soaroe.
rtnnnmher. The month was oool Bnd
dry. Plowing and seeding oontinued in
man? sections of tbe state. Tbe month
was favorable to fall-sown grain and to
agricultural work, but not favorable to
tbe growth of range food.
January. Out door work progressed
daring, tbe month. The soil was too wet
for nlnwlnc west of tbe Oaeoades, but
east of tbem plowing was quite general
Warm weather from the 20th to 25tb
oaused buds to swell. Fall-sown grain
was in excellent condition. Range food
was scarce, but tbe supply of bay was
laree. A few lambs were born in tbe
Willamette valley daring the month.
February, The month was unfavor
able for farm work. Tbe most severe
weather that has ocourred for many
years set in on the 1st and oontinued for
seven days. Over a portion of the Col
nmhie River Valley wheat was frozen
out Bnd it will have to be re-seeded
Orobards planted on low, wet ground
west of the Casoades were killed. Stock
passed through tbe oold period with
practically no loss, exoept in a few bands
of sheep in the more exposed places of
the Plateau Region, where tbe loss was
quite material.
March. Tbe temperature was from
to 4 decrees below the normal, and tbe
precipitation was deficient, exoept over
tbe southwestern portion of tbe state,
where it was in excess of tbe average
The month was not as favorable as usaa
' to spring plowing and seeding, except
upon tbe higher laud. There is, 1
rule considerable fruit bloom during tb
latter part of March, but this year only
' anrioots and pesobes were in bloom at
the close of the month, sod only in tb
Rogue River Valley. Lambing was
general west of tbe Oasondes during the
latter part of tbe montb.
EASTERN OBEOON.
Weather. Tbe temperature averaged
49 degrees in the Columbia river valley
and 39 decrees over the plateau district
for the past seven days. The rainfall
amounts to from 0.12 to 0.35 of an inch.
Tbe maximum temperature ranged from
54 degrees to 00 degrees and the mini
mum from 86 to 46; over the plateau
dietriot tbe maximum ranged from 42 to
48 and tbe minimum from 28 to 34.
Crops In the Columbia river valley
many correspondents report unfavor
able grain conditions, the result of tbe
February freeze; where tbe snow oovered
the ground there is no damage; where
the snow was blown off, tbe grain was
frozen out and re-seeding will be neces
sary. Afuob of the re-seeding has al
ready been done, and that sown in tbe
latter part of February and fore part of
March is making good growth. In
Dnion county the reports indicate that
in some Melds where tbe grain was sup
posed to be frozen out, a good stand is
now shown. Plowing and seeding are
very active throughout this valley.
Over the plateau it is yet too early tor
any farm work to be done.
Aprioots, peaches, cherries and plums
are in bloom in portions of tbe Colum
bia river valley, but general bloom will
not prevail, even in the valley, for
week or ten dBys more. The froit orop
is not supposed to have been materially
injured by the winter's oold. Straw
berries are beginning to grow and
large orop, as usual, is expected.
Over tbe plateau region snow is still
on the ground ; it is slowly melting and
the ground is beoomiug thoroughly
soaked, thus making good indications
for the year's crops.
Horses and cattle wintered well. The
loss is very small and ooofined to looali
ties. Sheep stood the winter very well
until March 1st, siuoe which time loss
hat ooourred, but not muoh, it any
mors than tbe average.
The outlook at present is for a good
wheat orop, about tbe usual fruit crop
and satisfactory rtsults from stock of
all kinds. '

H0MESEEKEB8 FOR OREGON.
Many Passing Through From Eastern Fointa
and Stopping Id Eastern Oregon.
On the Overland fast mail train from
the East this morning, there were msny
bomeseekers who are bound for points
in Eastern Oregon, Bnd for some days
there have been quite a number oomiog
into various plaoes.' Yesterday about 20
got off the O. R. & N. tral n at Heppner
Junction, and went out to look up tbe
advantages ot Morrow county as a looal
ity in which to settle, and about the
same number got on at Joiggs, en route
to Moro, Wasco county.
A gentleman who has largely to do
with tbe bringing of emigrants into tbe
weBt said at tbe train this morniog, ask
incr that bis name be withheld from
publication:
"It is true as stated in tbe East Ore-
gonian that tbe majority of the people
who have come during tbe season thus
far have been routed for tbe Yakima
valley, Washington, but the reason for
this is not that the railroad companies
are paying any more attention to that
seotion than to Oregon. It is due to
tbe exceeding activity of the represents'
tives of that section who have been em
ployed to go East and indaoe immi
gration.
"So far as tbe railroad company is
coooerned tbere will be made lost as
many efforts to settle up tbe unsettled
parts of Oregon as for any other part of
tbe Paoifio northwest. And tbe people
are coming here, as you will see this
year, hundreds being on their way and
thousands about to start.- '"
"Tbere in tbe oars now are many with
whom I have talked while coming to
Pendleton from tbe East, and I find that
they bave been informed as to what Ore
gon has to offer in the way ot agri
oultaral and oommeroial advantages'
"Any one who can rightly read tbe
signs of tbe times can see before the
North Paciflo ooast a period of wonder
ful development. Here is tbe place for
young men to remain and take advent
atre of tbe ooming prosperity. It is in
the air. One can read it in the marvel
ous aotivity exhibited on all sides. Tbere
is on a boildiDg movement in every town
of tbe coast, and nfw enterprises are
going in, all a part of the new wave of
prosperity that is sweeping over the
country.
"I can see from tbe reports that by
tbe time tbe year has closed, tbere will
have been done as muoh real improving
as has ever been done during any year
in tbe history of tbe ooast. As I travel
over tbe country, I oan see it with my
own eyrs, and need no statement by
others to make me know about it."

It is agreed by all bicycle manufactur
ers that tbe lw models represent tbe
perfeot wheel. Improvement seems to
be impossible. Precisely the same thing
is true of Uostetter'i Stomach' Bitters.
It represents tbe limits ot science in
overcoming disease, arid it is impossible
to make a better rxedicine for the stom
ach, liver, kidney a and blood, A tew
doses of tbe Bitters will start weak,
nervous and bloodless people on the road
to strength. A regular course of treat
ment will bring back tbe pink to the
cheeks and sparkle" to tbe eye. Bleep
will come naturally, and it will be re
freshing and healthful. Dyspepsia, in
digestion and constipation will be com
pletely banished, aod tbe blessings of
trne health bestowed. Never take
substitute for this cerfeot remedy. "
