Joiwi obbins letuirned this morning from an extended trip to Men tana and points east Crop-Weather Bulletin. M'ESTKKN OREGON. Weather. General and iheavy rain occured an Monday, Tuesday ana Y edneedaV of last week., espec tally so on Tuesday; since then fair weather Las prevailed with a riswig temperature.: .fsunday and Monday of this week being espec ially warm, the warmest o Jar this jvear. The maximum tcinjper atare ranged from SO to 80 degrees, the maximum from 456 to 50 .de grees. The rainfal.l was in amount frotn .one-half to three-quarters of n men, except in the immediate coast .counties where it Airmmvt.pil to over an inch. On the 19th heavy winds prevailed ; on the 17th, litth and 20th light frost occurred. Chops: The rainfall was not needed, yet no injury resulted from it. The frosts were light and little if any damage resulted from them. Peaches and apricots are about over blooming. Cherries, pears, plums and strawberries are in full bloom. In the southern counties apples are iu bloom, in the north ern counties about ready to bloom. Only an unusual frosty such as oc curred in May of 1894, 'will prevent an unusually larger fruit crop. Seeding is about. over. Fall sown grain is making a good growth and spring grain is generally above the ground. Hops are growing rapidly, Grass is good and the stock ; is improving Warmer nights are desired. EAfcTEKN 0HK.00N. Light rain fell on the Kith and 17th, lieing heaviest in Umatilla cotintv; it amounted to from .02 to .34 of an inh. I he temperature has ranged from 34 to 75 degreeB in Columbia river valley ami from 28 to 60 degrees to south; several light frosts occurred in the valley and injurious frosts to the south. I here is a general desire tor more rain. The western part of Wasco county and the northern part of Umatilla county have so far suffic ient moisture, but more will soon be needed. In Sherman and Morrow counties the need of rain is already very marked. The fall grain is in good condition and quite healthy, while spring grain is not in good condition it needs rain. The frost has done little, if any damage; in the valley the frosts weie not severe enough to damage, and to the south the fruit buds were not along enough to suffer any. There is an except ion to this statement in southern Gilliam county, where frosts have possibly done some damage. The fruit will make a good crop this year; the cereal crop will be mate rially deficient unless general rains occut. W arm rains will insure good crops; without general rain there are indications already of short grain crops. While showers usually occur, during May and June and some times general heavy rains occur yet the conditions this year are such that a dry season appears to be probable. B. S. Pague, Director.
