A large number of Dallas people went to Corvallis by special motor and at tended the exercises. The verdict of the judges was somewhat of a surprise to the audience, as it was the general opinion that Mr. Poling's oration would win for him first place.

We inspected at least 684 acres of hops, and in all that acreage we only found three yards that will have a good crop. I should say that if we have 60 per cent of a crop we will be doing well." Salem Journal. Frank Butler was in Dallas on a business errand, Monday. He re ports that the people of Falls City are greatly interested in the water-works question, and that the prospects of ob taining a splendid supply of pure mountain water at an early date are bright. Mr. Butler surveyed a route for the pipe line Saturday, and finds that in a distance pf 4700 feet a 276 foot head can be had. This would give ample pressure on the mains for fire purposes. The water will betaken from a tributary of Little Luckiamute creek. Considerable complaint is made by hop growers throughout the Valley that many of the vines have not come up and the reason is not known. In some yards there will not be over a half crop while in others in the same locality there will be an average crop. In this vicinity the Industrial Company's yard of 27 acres and the Hausman yard of 12 acres are serious ly affected. The Hausman yard is be ing reset but the Company yard will be left as it is at least for the present as the hills that have not made any apparent growth appear to be alive. Brown vi 1 le Times'.
