Those Dreadful Sores
They Continued to Spread In Spite
or Treatment but Now They are
Healed -A Wonderful Work.
"For many years I have been a great
Sufferer with varicose veins on one of my
limbs. My foot and limb became dread
folly swollen. When I stood up I could
feel the blood rushing down the veins of
this limb. One day I accidentally hit my
foot against some object and a sore broke
out which continued to spread and was
exceedingly painful. I concluded I
needed a blood purifier and I began taking
Hood's Sarsaparilla. In a short time
those dreadful sores which had caused
me so much suffering, began to heal. I
kept on faithfully with Hood's Sarsapa
rilla, and In a short time my limb was
completely healed and the sores gave me
no more pain. I cannot be too thankful
for the wonderful work Hood's Sarsapa
rilla, hag done for me." MBS. A. E.

Married
The many friends of J, C. Ensly, so
well known in this county will read uth
interest the following from the Klondike
Nagget published at Dawsou, April 1st:
On the '25th St. Pauls church witnessed
the interesting marriage ceremony of the
Oburob of Ei gland. Bishop Bu-npass
officiated and securely tied the knot
which mokes J. C. Easley and Mary
Kanutson one for life The affiir was
quietly conducted, only tbe witnesses,
Fred Spencer and Mrs, Vigles, being
present. Tbe puir have known each
other on the outsida for several years,
but it took the hardships of a year on
tbe Klondike to oonvincs them that a
divided burden in lightest. Here's to
you, Mr. and Mrs. Euslay.
Flax. Cnltnre.
Ed Holloay, 8 Morrow county farm
er, has 105 aores sown to tits and tbioks
the onltnre of that fiber is the oomlng
industry of Eastern Oregon. His own
looks very thrifty, notwithstanding the
uopropitious weather sinoe it was sown
in March. During tbe past 30 days there
have been very few hours of good grow
ing weather, and yet the Sax bas at
tained a growth of two inches. He feels
assured that tbe seed will do better still
it sown in the fall, as oold weather does
not seem to "phase" it, and the crop will
ripen early in the season, so as to be well
out of tbe way of tbe hot winds of June.
Tbe reoent discovery that tbe fiber oan
be made up into better and stronger
grain bags than the jute, will add 85
more to the sore in the valueof the orop.

Editor Gazette: Aooordiog to prom
lse, I will drop you line regarding my
brief visit in the Susanville Camp, Not
being able to prooore a borse, I doned
my brngans and took a bee line across
the oountry, through mud and snow
knee deep, fully realizing upon my
arrival in camp the true version of a
"renl estate exchange."
I found tbe camo far mors promising
than expected. Tbe snow, wblc'c is
about five feet deep along tbe base of
the Green Horn, detered my investiga
tion. However, judging from what I
oan see at present writing, I prediot
wonderful discoveries within tbe very
near future.
No attempt in way of development bad
been mads up to tbe advent of tbe Badg
er Company, aid tbe Ames & Simmon
people last fall. Tbe results of tbeir devel
opment np to date is most satisfactory,
from tbe faot tbat tbe mill runs constan
tly. New pumps tor bath tbe Badger
and Stockton (Ames & Simmons pro
perty) are being shipped io and every
foot of available prospective territory Is
being acquired by tbe reepeotive com
panies. I am folly satisfied tbat with a few
hundred dollars and carefully exploring
the distriot good and most valuable pro
perty oan be acquired in a comparatively
abort time. Tbe faot is, tbe ground
floor of tbe Greeu Horn belt is opened
for big opportunities. It one could but
take tbe old Green Horn and transplant
it in tbe moat inacoessabls part of Col
orado within 3) days there would not be
left one foot of vaoant territory.

WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN,
A Week of Rain and Snow In Eastern
Oragoa.
The following climate and crop service Is
furnished the Gazette by B. B. Pague, section
director V. 8. department of agriculture:
Weather Rain In the Columbia river valley
and rain or snow over the plateau region oc
curred almost every day of the last seven. The
total precipitation for the week ranges from .80
to .75 of an inch, except over the central por
tion, where the total was about .85 of an Inch.
Thursday, Friday and Sunday had less precipi
tation than the other days.
The mean temperature for the week, 44 de
grees, Is four lower than for the proceeding
week and nine lower than for the correspond
ing week of last year. In the Columbia river
valley the temperature was 11 degrees higher
than It was over the plateau region, In the
valley the maximum temperature averaged 57
degree and the minimum 41 degrees. Over the
plateau region freezing temperatures occurred
almost every night. The total snowfall over
the plateau region during the week ranged
from 8 to 5 inches, much of It melting within
24 hours. On the mountains over a foot of
snow fell.
Crops-Blow growth In vegetation Is reported
by all correspondents. There has been no
growth over the plateau region, except In the
bunch grass, and that Is making good growth.
The sol) Is well soaked, and with reasonable
temperature a rapid growth would ensue. The
grain crop In the Columbia river valley Is in
much better condition than usual at this season
of the year. Tha upward growth Is slow, but
the stooling Is superior to the ordinary good
year. While cool temperatures prevailed,
spring work was pushed wltb vigor throughout
the Valley. In many parts of theOrande Ronde
valley the soil is wet, and farm work Is some
what delayed. The grain crop, the principle
crop of Eastern Oregon, Is In good condition
and has excellent prospects, Deep roots, good
stooling and a moist soil are conditions conduc
ive to a big crop.
Tbe fruit prospects hav. not changed. Buds
are swelling over the plateau region. In the
valley the early blooming trees are dropping
their bloom. The apple crop In Hood river
valley la yet problematical, but a failure is not
expected. Tbe strawberry crop is very promis
ing, and unless unforseen circumstances arise
the crop will be larger than It was last year.
Hheep shearing has commenced. The cold
weather has killed some of the shorn sheep.
The wool clip Is fully up to the normal grade.
Where the food was plenty the grade Is extra
fine. Range stock is fattening and Is In aver
age condition.
No snow has melted In the mountains or foot
hills, so thai the mining season will be later
than usual.
