following, covering about la degrees.
Mr. Fortmiller called the attention of

ing in from the fair ground also suw it,
a bright ball of Are, with sparks, two

Grown Up Now.
Those who remember the Pollards in
years gone by, when as children they
delighted audiences with their clever
rendering of light opera, will find an
added pleasure in seeing some of the
aJults "the grown-ups'" the former
stars of the big juvenile production, in
the best of all comic operas "The Mi
kudo," which will be given an elaborate
revival next week by the National-Pollard
Opera Company at Albany Wednes
day night, and already seats are being
called for.
This great work by those famous
writers, Sir Arthur Sullivan and W. S.
Gilbert, is admitted by the musical
world to be a pattern on which all
comic operas can be modeled. Certain
it is, it has never been excelled in
charm, although over twenty years
have gone by since its inception.

regarding a yield uf 117 bushels of oats

we took 40 head of cows up on to the
Birch Creek in Umatilla Co. and made
butter that we sold in thj Boise mine
for $1.00 per lb. I thinK it was the
summer of 1861 that some renters of
the Norman Martin donation claim in
Scog&ins Valley, raised on the exceed
ingly rich bottom land 75 or more
bushels of wheat per acre; ths biggest
yield I have ever seen, or known of in
Oregon, that I can remember. It was
a tedious job threshing it with the ma
