stands the business. He comes among

the most of our citizens. He is a gen
tleman In every respect and is well
liked by everyone that know him.
He is just such a mun as we like to see
locate in our midst. . We bespeak for
him a liberal patronage. Mr. Miller
has not decided what he will, do, hut
for the present will remain in Leba
non. His reason for selling out was
on account of poor health. He was
born and raised near this place and
has now been in tbe drug business

a great factor in tbe upbuilding of our
city, having served as mayor four
terms, aud alwsys taking an active
part in everything for the advance
ment of the city. We hope he will
decide to remain with us.
The Hop Outlook.
The outlook for hop growers at pros-
eut Is not at all favorable, says tbe
SUverton Appeal. A few weeks ago
conditions Indicated that bops would
be worth from 7 to 8 cents per pound
for a choice article, but since tbat time
the market Is ou the decline. From
good authority it is estimated that
growers will do well to get 6 or 5) per
pound, The Butteville Hop Growers'
Association has a large membership,
and heretofore held meetings regularly
lu tbe Interest of growers. The
elation in former years has purchased
a large amount of hop supplies, there
by saving considerable money to the
growers by getting a reduction by buy.
ing In large lota. This year the asso
ciation will not even have a meeting.
The members have decided not to
purchase any supplies, for the reason
that tbey are afraid to take tbe risk.
Tbe price of picking will undoubtedly
be reduced this season. Twenty-five
cents per box will probably be tbe
price paid. If pickers can be secured
at this price, this will reduce tbe cost
of production, and hops cau be put in
the bale tor 4 cent a pouud. Even if
bops are worth enough to be profitable
to tbe grower, there is yet another very
perplexing question, and that Is to get
the money to pick with. Owing to
the stringency In tbe money market,
it will be extremely difficult to get
money.
Several Sales.
Matters were lively at 1 o'clock Bat
urday at tbe front door of thu court

Chae. Swlnk will be more careful ot
his small change after this when bet

but It will count up to dollars in a
short time.
From all appearances the potato
crop will be rather light this fall. Al
ready the vines have assumed a yellow
ish oast and there are no potatoes even
as Urge a a marble on them. This Is
very discoui aging to tbe farmers as the
potato crop heretofore has been heavy
and no prioe. This year it seems as
though the price will be exceedingly
good. The cause of this light crop Is
supposed to be from no rains and
abundant hot weather.
Tbe hop crop In this part of ths
country is very good. The lice have
not bothered veiy much. There is not
more than one-third as many here as
there were last year. The price per
box wilt not be changed much. From
25c to 40c per box.
Tbe wheat and oats crop is very
light and a great deal of it will be put
Into hay. Cetn Is very good but scarce.
There will be no fruit in this section
at all except a few strawberries and
blackberries. Tbe early frosts killed
the entire peach, apple, pear and prune
crops.
