WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.
For Eastern Oregon the Put Week, fruit
and Grain Crop Assured.
Weather. As in tbe western portion
of the State, higher temperatures and
less rainfall ocoured during the last
week than in tbe proceeding week. Tbe
mean temperatures was 60 wbiob is 7
degrees higher than tor tbe preoeding
week and 1 degree higher than for the
corresponding week last year, tbe mean
temperature was the same as for the
week ending April 10th, with tbe differ
ence that tbe night temperatures daring
the lest week were higher and tbe day
temperatures lower-
Tbe total rain fall for tbe week
amounts to from .07 to .56 of an inch,
the greater amount falling over the
Plateau region. Rain fell on Thursday
and Friday.
There were no frosts in tbe Columbia
Biver Valley, but tbey were frequent
over tbe Plateau region.
Crops. Tbe warmer weatber wee of
great benefit. Fall sown grain bas
made growth and is in fairly good oondi
tion, but it is not up to what it usually
is at this season of the year. It has
stooled maoh better than usual, but it
lacks growth; this will oome with
warmer weather. Spring grain on fal
low land Is doing very well, but on stub
ble ground it is very backward. Tbe
oil is moist, and with waim sunshine
to raise the temperature of the soil, a
rapid growth will ensue. There is no
danger at tbe present time of a abort
crop or of injury to the orop, yet condi
tions will be greatly improved by more
favorable weatber.
The fruit conditions have not obanged.
The early blooming fruits are losing
their bloom, and tbe present indications
are favorable for a normal orop. By
June 1st tbe condition and prospeots
can be determined. Strawberries aro
setting and a large orop is expeoted.
Grass is making good growth and a
large orop is now promised.
Tbe foregoing applies to the Columbia
Biver Valley. Over the Plateau region
the season continues backward, though
an advanoe in vegetation is noted. Tbe
grain crop in the Grand Rondo and
Powder Biver valleys is in fairly good
oonditiou.
Fruit buds are swelling and tbe trees
are coming into bloom.
Bange food is improveing in quantity
and quality, and stook is fattening np.
Tbe lambing season continnes. Some
sections report favorable results, others
that there is loss among tbe lambs.
The continued cool, backward season
is disoouragiug; it delays work and re
tards development of vegetation. Late
seasons are usually followed by got d
crops,

"Oregon is the great breeding ground
lot cattle and sheep. It is upon this
state that tbe big ranohers of Montana,
Wyoming, tbe Dukotas and Nebraska
must mainly depend for slock to re
plenish ranges depleted by tbe demand
for 'feeders,' said J. L. Harris, general
agent of the Union Htook Tarda Com
pany, of Chicago, while in Portland the
otber day.
"Our stook yards will use half a mil
lion sheep tbls ysar," be oontinued,
"which oome lndireotly from the ranges
of Oregon, besides a large number of
cuttle that have been graced in the
Bocky mountain states and fattened
further east sinoe leaving this state as
yearlings or 2 year-olds. The demand
for Oregou fed stook is to be permanent,
so far as 1 oan see now, and Oregon rat
tlemen should take mors pains to im
prove their stook than tbey have been
doing. Texas alone hat spent 12,000,
000 for improving stook during tbe past
two years, and she is now beginning to
reap tbe harvest from her investment.
Tbe stock Texas men have been im
porting from tbe eaet is Hereford and
Durham, mainly tbe former."
Tbe demand for Oregon stock this
season Mr. Harris finds to be good, lie
thinks young oatlle low in flesh will be
Bent from this state to be fattened at
tbe corn binns of the Mississippi valley,
and the fat oaroasses, increased 100 to
200 per cent in weight, will be shipped to
Portland and Hound meat markets, to
tbe protit end satisfaction of breeder,
drover and consumer. He thinks, bow
ever, that Oregon stockmen are holding
their sheep and oattle a little too high
tor tbe present market, although a large
number of buyers are now in tbe field
anxious to start their purchases east
ward. The ruling prices now are: For
2-year-old steers, 925 to $'27; yearlings,
$18. He thinks such prices as these
oogut to satiety cattleraisers, an on a
large icate there would be "millions in
it" Oregonian.

The dread and fort
boding which almost
invariably comes over
a young wife, just ere
the advent of the first
little darling who shall
call her mother, is one
of the unnatural bur
dens which civilization
has imposed upon the
privilege of mother
hood. There ought not to be such an over
whelming sens of depression and weak
ness as a woman feels at this time and there
would not be if she was in a perfectly strong
and healthy condition. In thousands of
raws motherhood has been divested of all
its dangers and a large proportion of its
pain by the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Ptcscription, which is the most marvelous
remedy ever discovered for restoring com
plete organic health and strength to the
delicate special structure involved in moth
erhood. Taken early during the prospective
time it makes the mother strong, energetic
and cheerful and carries her through the
period of trial with comparative comfort
and ease. It increases the baby's natural,
constitutional vigor aud adds to the joys of
motherhood the supteme satisfaction of a
strong, robust, lusty infant " Favorite Pre
scriptton " is also the best supportive tonic
for nursing mothers. Every expectant
mother wiuappreciate what is said by Mrs.
Kannle M. Harry, of Galesburg, Ilia, (mj
Churchill Ave.) In a letter to Dr. Pierce
she writes :
" I have uard vour rotdicines In m v family for s
long time, and And them to be all that ia claimed.
I cannot recommend them too highly. My con-Buenu-ut
