Residents of Western Oregon who are prouo to complain of the hot, dry weather, should take a 10113 niilwuy Journey to refresh their memories. On their return, no matter in what direction they have gone, they will discover that western atd soul hum Oregon is like an oasis in a desert. It Is only when deprived of tho sight that one realizes how much freshness the green forests and timbered hills give to midsummer In this jmrt of Oregon. It is to bo Imped that the Idea ad vanced at the recent meeting of the miners' association to arrange for a permanent mineral exhibit and bureau of information, will bear fruit. Hucli an institution is sadly needed in Grants I'ass. Our district can pro duoe a mineral display that would make strangers ojien their eyi.

Calhoun, a business man of Grants Pass, who is now iu Port land, says times aro booming iu Joso phluo county and In Southern Oregon generally. "The hills aro full of prospectors all tho way from Gal ice Creek to tho California line, a tlis tance of 70 miles, since, tho Ilriggs family struck their bonanza 011 Sucker Creek, and there will l.o a good many valuable placor claims located between now and full," he said to a Telegram reporter. "Fifty years ago the Siskiyou Monmalui In the region of Waldo and Korby wore warming with gold hunt ers, who wore making good wages with pick and pan and rocker, but when tho cream of the gold was taken, these miners went away, as they were not content with ordinary wages. Hiuoe that time a larg, amount of gold has been taken out, but there has been uo general pros)iectlng done until this year. uranu i'ass Is so situated ns to profit by the development that will result from all this prospecting. There Is no town of any size between us and Crelceut City, which is on the const 100 miles to the west, and there Is a high range of mountains about mid way between. Tho great redwood forests along the Gasquet toll road have not yet been touched by the ax, and when tho railroad is built from Grants Pass to Crescent City, the bulk of this redwood will find Its way to market by way of Grants Pass. "In addition to a good crop of ap ples end smull fruits, Josephine ccun ty is going to have a splendid melon crop this year. We are not so early as California in this respect, but our melons aro so much larger and sw eeter than those of the Sacramento Valley that they speedily run the others out. "Melon raising is largely done with the aid of irrigation now 111 the Rogue river valley and gasoline engines are used in pumping (be water from the river for litigating pnrHise. Men have fouud out that good livings run be made iu thiswiiyolTs few acres, ami I look for a iniuii larger .irea to be put down to melons ami finite from year to year hen aft. r."

Front Street, west Palace hotel ORANTS PASS, ORE. t Following is a summary of the weather bureau crop service for Ore gon : The (mst week has been favorable for maturing and harvesting the grain crop. A few small showers occurred Wednesday and Thursday iu tliu Willamette valley and coast counties. Tiny greatly heljied all growing vegetation, but caused a silght delay iu ha vest work. The stand cf spring wheat aud oats wrs thin, and the graiu headed short, but the heads are well filled with plump berries and the yields lira nearly everywhere reported to be better than expected. F'all wheat and barley harvest is advancing rapidly aud tlirshiug from tliu shock has began. J The second crop of alfalfa la an average one on irrigated hinds and below the average where not irri gated. Pasturage iu the mountains continues good, but in the foothills it is poor Low land com is doing splendidly an I potatoes and gardens have been greatly improved by tht recent ruins. Some spraying has been done iu the hop yards, and growers exect they will have to sprpy again before the crop is picked, although so far the yards have kept remarkably free from lice, and the vines are healthy and vigorous. Considerable complaint is made of apples dropping, but there is enough fruit still left on the trees to make an. excellent crop. Peaches and both fruit are plentiful. Sick Hetdtchc. "For several years my wife was troubled with what physicians called sick headache of a very severe char acter. She doctored with several eminent physicians and nt a great ex pe lap, only to grow worse until she was uiialrlo to do any kind of work.
