Although the total rainfall from October, 1SW7, to October, 1908, was only 6.7 inch es, and the past season was con sidered the driest since cultiva tion of the famous Blalock wheat belt, was commenced, crops were harvested that yielded over 20 bushels of wheat to the acre. This fact leads those who are in a position to know to predict such bright prospects. The re-j suit of last season's yields, also proves to a certain extent that the progressive fanners of this: locality have solved that problem J in dry land farming known as conservation of moisture. Since October 1st, the precipitation has amounted to 1.7 inches and fall sown grain has been benefited to such an extent that old-timers claim it is the best prospect they ever had. The acreage In this vicinity will be larger than usual and fall sown grain has been treated to the latest methods known in preparing ground for fall sowing. Following is a par tial list of fall sown wheat: W. J. Mariner 700 acres, Bunch & Sons 1500, Baker & Sons 800, W. W. McKinney.300;Hull&Crewr, 680; and it is safe to say that BPVPral smaller growers will swell the list to 5000 acres of win ter wheat The favorite varieties in this section are Forty-fold, Turkey Red and Red Fife. Besides the bright prospects for a heavy srrain crop, the farmers 'and Btockmen are jubilant over the prospects for winter grazing, as the pasture lands, both range and stubble fields are loaded down with an abundance of green feed and all kinds of stock are in fine condition.

Saloons Are Allowed to Run In the Meantime. $5000.00 Judge Littlefield, W. H. Wil son of The Dalles and District Attorney J. E. Burdette of Ar lington met in this city on Mon ay night to take up the matter which has been agitating local circles for the past few weeks, the question as to whether Con don should be wet or dry. Af ter reviewing the order of Pro hibition made by the County Court on the 11th of June, the case of G. W. Raper vs the Coun ty Court on July 3rd was taken up. Judge Littlefield at that time held that the charter of Condon does not supersede the local option law, deciding the case against the plaintiff. At the conference Monday night, however, it was decided that this case should be appealed to the Supreme Court and that said appeal should be perfected as soon as possible. Every effort possible will be put forth to have this case advanced on the calen dar of the Supreme Court and tried at once, and it is confident ly expected that a decision will be returned not later than Janu ary 1st It was further decided that in the meantime the saloons are to remain open.

College Physician and Surgeon of Boston, has the following to say about the eye and the danger the public has to face: "The eye being a delicate organ, demands the care of the most skilled physician. The public should be especially warned against persons not medical graduates who impudently assume the title of Doctor, and, whether still en gaged in the eye destroying spectacle trade or retired there from to wreak still greater destruction as self-styled special ists, deserve no attention save at the hands of the Legisla ture. A specialist, to assume this title legaljy, must be a graduate in medicine."
