The Woodburn Independent says that the harvest for this year, with the exception of the late spring grain, has been completed. Now and then good yields are reported, but in the msjoYity of cases fall wheat on sum mer fallow yielded from 18 to 2R stubble land gave about half as much. Spring wheat and oats, so far as threshed, have made just half a crop. Grain has been saved' in good condi tion, and should bring better prices than art being paid at present 1 It is believed that there will be but little, if any, oats for export, as there was no more raised than will be required for home consumption. Our Small Army is Efficient. General Harrison, In bis "This Country of Ours" article iu September Ladieal' Home Journal writes of the War and Post Office departments, aud of the Department of Justice, and in connection with the first named be pays this tribute to our standing army; "Our army Is small, in fact, minute, when compared with any of the armies of the great powers, but, under the operation of recent laws relating to establishments, and of laws intended lo protect the righto and promote the self-respect of the private soldier aud relieve him from assign ments of menial duties, the quality and espit da oorpe of die enlisted men are higher, I think, than ever before, and the character and military skill of it1? uffioers afe of a ver; hiifh order.

Winters, of Salem, his daughter Miss Minnie, his three sons, Miss May Stanley, of Meham, and a Mr Spalding, who have been camping In the uplands near Fish lake for the past ten days, broke camp on Monday last and started for Salem, says the Salem Statesman, on reaching what la known as "heyen-Mile" hill the forest was found to bo a mass of roaring flames, thousands of acres In ; extent, The road running in the woods at this point was Impassible, though some teams Just ahead of Mr. Winters suc ceeded In getting through the fl re bel toy dlut of hard running, but all parties attempting it were badly scorched about the hands and face and horses suffered much worse. Seven teams congregated on the hill where the Winter party were halted, and the men worked desperately,, but suc cessfully, to save the bridge next ahead of them on their home journey. After this delay the whole party pro ceeded over hot coals and burning embers and through, dense and suf focating smoke toward their, several destinations: The - ladies involved in the adventure were sorely frightened dui iug the oonflict with the flrey ele ments, but this wore off when they were once more started on their home ward trip..

Mr. John McQuinn, who for the past two months has been at work with a party making a survey of lands in the grant of the Willamettee Val ley fc Cascade: .Mountain Wagon road, has completed his job and re turned. His work waa on the summit of the range, in the vicinity of Clear lake and Blue lake, and Mr. McQuinn says that la a most delightful region to work iu daring the summer. Blue lake covers about 76 acres. Clear lake Is much smaller, and there is a body of water called Fish lake, which is Allied through a subterranean chan nel ' from Clear lake, and which usually goes dry In the summer. It has not gone dry this summer, owing to the large snow fall which came late and laid on the summit In places hearty all summer. Blue lake is the source of one the finest trout streams in Oregon. Mr. McQuiun's party caught lota of trout, and he says a vast number of trout .was taken out of those streams this season, more than ever before. His men feasts on trout and venison whenever they desired to, Many' persons have been camping in til-moiiiitaiiis, fishing and bunting.
