Albany t.inn county people are watching the weather man closely these uays, and yearning lor a "fair day' flag. This is particularly true of fruit growers, for the recent cold rains are menace to the fruit crop. As it I", Some injury haa been report ed. A prominent farmer and fruit grower of Linn county states that he is of the opinion that cherries and prunse are somewhat Injured already, particu lariy merries. The cherry trees were loaded with bloHsoms at the end of the warm spring weather that marked the closing days of February and the first half of March, and the rain faugh them at the Underet u. Then couple of lii;ht frosts last week added to the danger. Prunes were not brought out so much as cherries by the premature advent of spring, ana may powubly erape injury Although the trees seemed to be in blossom at the beginning of the rains they were in reality not generally in full bloom, but were loaded with buds that were just ready to burst but had not yet exposed the tender inner part to the weather. Under these circum stances it is believed the damage will bonoininal, if good weather comes soon. However, it would not take many days of chilling rains and winds to do irreparable damage. It has been slated that the prune trees were giving evidence of such a heavy crop that it would r ally be better for the fruit if some of the embryo prunes were killed by the cold. Other brandies of farming are faring well. An easy winter and early spring places stock tn excellent condition, and every class of stock looks well. Iairy farmers are milking more cows,' with better result than in years before at this season of the year. Many farmers will finish the winter in much better shape than was anticipated after the poor crops of lust year. heat is looking tine, and, barring some unforeseen freak of nature to de stroy the present bright prospects, the wheat yield of the valley will be far alove the average. Fall sown what can almost be seen to grow now, and many farmers are preparing to put all their remaining acreage in spring grain Albany Mill May Ba Rebuilt. Albany President Charles Coopey and Secretary II. M. Grant, of the Ban- nockburn Woolen Mills company, who have been in Albany looking after their proiwrty, which was recently almost totally duatroyed by fire, state that it is poHsible the mill will lie rebuilt. The brick walls are part of them stand ing and in good shape, and some of the machinery can be saved. The big boil er in the engine room was not damaged, and altogether there is quite a nucleus around w hich to start a new mill. The company had a great deal of business ahead when the fire occurred. Independence Idea To Be Aired. Independene -It is the purpose of the Willamette Valley Improvement league to call a meeting of the execu tive committee provided for at Salem last week to meet in Independence the lust of April. Members of the Inde pendence Improvement league are con sidering the advisability of calling a general meeting, to be held here at the same time. If called, and it most like' ly will be, the program will be an exec utive session in the afternoon and a banquet in the evening, at' which the Independence idea will find expression. Logs for Riverton Sawmill. Riverton The Riverton sawmill, which has been idle for some months past, will begin operations m a few days. E. J. Price, ot the Riverton ..umber company, and manager of the mill at this place, has secured a large number" of first-class logs f om the upper tributaries of the Coquille. The recent freshet is bringing down several thousand logs which have heretofore had no opportunity to float. Consider able improvmeents are being made in the Riverton sawmill, which it is ex pected will increase its output. Ranchers to Fight for Water. Milton A maes meeting of 300 fruit growers and citizens of Milton and vi cinity was held in Alliance hall for the purpose of providing legal advice and the best methods to pursue against the Peacock Mill company, which has brought suit against the city of Milton and all the irrigation ditch companies and private property owners in this alley, - to determine the amount of water the Peacock Mill company shall appropriate for the, purpose of running their mills at this place. Klamath People Raise Big Bonus. Klamath Falls Klamath county has raised $80,000 of the $100,000 bonus for the Weed railroad extension to Klamath Falls, and has obtained an extension until May 1 to raise the bal ance. The balance undoubtedly will be raised, and the railroad connection of this section with the outside world is now assured. FRAUD ON 8TATE. Marlon County Orand Jury Will Invss- tlgate Illegal Transactions. eaiem inougn the statutes goverr- ing the sale of state lands have been violated ever since they were enacted, the investigation to be made by the Marlon county grand jury this week will be the first attempt that has ever been made to punish infraction of these laws. Several hundred thousand acres of land have teen bought illegally, and the state school fund has been de spoiled of several hundred thousand dollars, but usually punishment of the offense has been barred by the statute of limitation before it was discovered, or, the state having received the legal price for the land sold, no one feels in terested enough to start an investiga tion. The offense which the grand jury will investigate this week is of re cent date, and the facts are so well known that the transactions can scarcely be overlooked. Because the state in every instance receives the price required by law, and is not directly robbed, it has been easy to let the infractions of law go with scarce a passing notice. But indirectly trie state haa been robbed and vigorous action at the proper time would not only have landed the offenders in pris on, but saved many thousands of dol lars lor the school fund. It is not through the ordinary sales of school land that the steals have taken place, tor in an sum cases the state has re ceived all the land is worth. It is through the lieu land operations that the manipulators of public lands have made their fortunes at the expense of the school fund. Show Valley Live Stock. Woodbtirn Two thousand people at tended the livestock fair in this city last Saturday. A splendid address was delivered by Hon. James ithycombe, of the State Agricultural college, of Corvallis. Colonel J. B. Eddy, Hon, J. Y . Bailey, state food and dairy com missioner, and J. U. Hettlemier also delivered lively speeches. Altogether the initiation of this fair was a magnifi cent success. President Fred Dose and Secretary William P. Pennebaker will proceed to tierfect a permanent oreani- ! t 1 aa xauon. a inree nays lair oi all pro ducts and livestock will be held during next October. To Bring Engineers Here. Portland hilorU are being made to have the American institute of Mining engineers stop in 1'ortland this sum mer, while en route to or from Alaska at the close of the annual session at ictoria, B. V. It may be possible to have the members of the organization cut out Alaska from their itinerary and make a stay at the exposition. The secretary of the institute has been ad dressed on the subject, and it is hoped tue desired results will be obtained. The makeup of this organization is not able. Dog Poison in Bologna Sausage. Independencs Dog poisoning has become so common in Independence uiai, no surprise is expressed when a canine is observed in the throes of death on the street or in a front yard. Some of the most valuable dogs in town have been poisoned and though there is a standing reward of 1200, the poisoner has not been apprehended. Bologna sausage containing poison has been picked up in different portions of town. but it affords no clue as to the identity or motive ot the poisoner. Waiting for a Market for Coal. Riverton The bunkers of the River ton Mining & Development company's mine have, been filled and mining oper ations have been susnended awaiting a vessel to carry coal.
