SHÌ Catch«« Al*o Affected. Albany— Tha prana crop of Linn county w ill ba almoat an antira failure thia year, according to an orchardiat who waa ip Albany a few day« ago. The froat that visited tha valley came a t a vary inopportune time for tha orcharda. Tha cold weather that held on until an almoat unprecedented lata data for thia valley had kept tha fruit back until ore hard is ts were confident of escaping the spring froata that usually catch tha fruit in March, if at all. But the warm weather during tha first week of A p ril brought the fruit out rapidly, and when tha cold rains came again, fru it of every description was in fu ll bloesom. The heavy frost found tha fruit in full bloasom and did much > damage. Tha prune trees ware wall «loaded with bloaaoms, which had begun to fall.' A close examination of tha trees re* veals noiy that although the embryo fruit within the bloeeom is green, yet the fraitstem leading from the lim b of the tree is turning yellow. This is 's a id to mean that the fruit w ill drop from the tree just as soon as the prune becomes large enough to add w eight to the stem. The dead stain can not bear up any load. The statement of thb prunergower is that at least three- fourths of the prunes are.'affected in this way, and that orebardisita w ill do w ell to save one-fourth of this year’ s prune crop. As prunes constitute the greater part of the fruit crop of the county, the loss will, fall heavily upon fruitgrowers in this part of the valley. Pears are affected in the same way The young pears were Just beginning to form when the frost came and were hit just as hard as the prunes. Apples are looking w ell at this time. They were not affected so seriously by the late frost, and the trees are now covered with blossoms that look healthy and give every promise of developing into fruit of Oregon’ s usual excellent varieties. This crop w ill, however, depend largely on the weather during the next two weeks. Another frost such as that of recent date would in jure the apple crop. v * Forest Grove— President W . N. Per rin has left for the* East on an extended trip in the interests of the Pacific Uni versity. H e w ill visit Chicago and other Eastern cities, and w ill not re turn before the middle of June. In speaking of his trip President Perrin said: * “ We were never more encouraged over the prospeets of the university than at present. Our finances w « never in a better condition and every thing indicates an increase in the school’ s endowment in the near future Although I do not wish to make a defi nite statement, I believe that we w ill erect several buildinga before long. W e are planning to build one of the largest and best equipped gymnasiums in the Northwest. We also look" for ward V« a new science hall and w ill provide a building for the exclusive use of the literary societies and other student organisations as soon as possi ble.’ ’ U nion P acific La Grande—-A t a special meeting of the city council held in the council chambers for the consideration of the many plans submitted for the $25,000 city hall, .thoee drawn and adopted by J. L. Batler, a La Grande man, were selected. The building w ill be two stories high, not 'including the stone basement, 83x01 feet. A ll the offices w ill consist of a suite of two rooms. The offices of the water superintendent and city recorder w ill be 'provided with roomy vaults for the proper protection of records. This w ill be one of the finest buildings of the kind in Eastern Oregon. Leaves Y a q u in a ............................ 8.46 a m lea ves Corvallis.......... .................
