Crop Report.
The first half of the week wa dry,
with frosty night and warm afternoon.
The last half waa showery, and good
rain fell in all sections of the state.
The soil is now in excellent condition
for plowing and germination of seeds,
and farming operations have made rapid
progress during the past week.
The stand of fall wheat i good ; the
plant is healthy and it growth during
the week has been satisfactory. Spring
wheat seeding is well advanced, and in
many section completed. The early
own catno up nicely and no complaint
are made in any locality regarding it
condition. Barley and oat are also do
ing well. Pasturage is much better
than usual at this season of the year,
and all grasses and forage plant are
thrifty and promising. Lambing is well
advanced and tho losses have been
(mall. Goat) shearing ia finished and
the mohair clip is above the average,
both in Quality and quantity.
Early garden are up and good pro
gress baa been made iu planting late
garden. Considerable land has been
prepared for corn, and in the southern
section come corn ha been planted.
Early potatoes are doing well, except in
a few exposed places, where they were
injured by frost. Hop are thrifty and
and promising.
The frost have undoubtedly done
considerable harm to fruit, but to what
extent correspondents disagree. Some
think only a reasonable amount of
thinning has occured and that the fruit
crop will be better in consequence there
of, while other claim that Italian
prunes, peaches, pears, cherries and
plum have been seriously harmed.
Apples and French prune have re
ceived but little injury. Soros varieties
have not bloomed so full a usual, but
the condition of apple ia generally prom
ising. Feed, barley and bran for sale at Cate's

Report from sectional conventions,
In order named above.
Report of Vice Piesldeuts of the Lea
gue. Address by Hon. Jefferson Myers,
President Oregon State Commission of
Lewis snd Clark Exposition.
Reports from all delegates represented.
All delegates will le guests of the
Lewis and Clark Exposition ths after
noon of the 27th, leaving for the grounds
at exactly two o'clock, as per announce
ment to be made in the convention.
The addresses on the programme will
none of them exceed fifteen minutes in
length, leaving time for the important
business to be considered a projter re
presentation of th various portions of
the state through a League headquar
ters on the Exposition ground will re
ceive attention. The sectional conven
tion will be intensely practical.
Every member of the Oregon Develop
ment League is entitled to name a dele
gation to include any desired number
the section conventions should be borne
men from the different industries are
named.
Every editor in the stats is a delegate
at large, because it is through the news
papers that Oregon will get her publici
ty. Where there is no organisation
holding membership in the League, the
appointment of representative devolves
upon the Mayors of town and the
County CommiHslonera, and it is especi
ally desired that several sections of the
state not now aliiliated with the League
should organize ami join us. Every pos
sible permanent benefit should be se
cured as a result of the enormous west
ern travel that is now a certainty.
