One route would bring tbe water from Big l't.rk creek on tbe west side cf the White Halmon river. By means of a Hume over the White Sulmon, sufficient water could be brought' out to irrigate .JUU acres In the Cameron flat and White Salmon valley. Tbe second plan would bring tbe water Irom a point a snort dls tance above the falls, and by swing ing the canal around the mountain by the old Uroshong place 5000 acres could be brought under the ditch. It is proposed to bond tbe district for 50,000 for tbe construction of the system, wnile water is not needed for crops maturing up to the first of July, it could be used to advantage for small fruits sucn as blackuerreis, raspberries and late vegetables, also for clovler and bay nelds. The Mount Adams Canning Co. is well sat in lied with the experiments made at W hue Salmon this summer. and is now making contracts with tbe farmers for small fruits and vegetables for next summer s delivery.

(rain Harvest bearing a Close. The Climate and Crop Bulletin for the week ending August 29, says: The past week was cooler than the previous one in the eastern section, while in the eastern section the nights were cool, with moderately warm days. A few small showers occurred in tbe northwest Sunday and Monday, but tbey were insufficient to wet the ground to auy great depth, and rain is still needed everywhere for late crops aud for pastures. The grain harvest is drawing to a close and thrashing is well along. Fall wheat and barley continue to yield well, but the berry of spring wheat aud oats shriveled during the late hot weather aud the yields are disappointing. Pasturage is getting very short and stock is losing flesh. Corn aud hops are making satisfactory advancement. Late potatoes are at a standstill aud need rain badly. Apples are generally smaller in Bize than usual and tbe crop promises to lie below the average in quantity. Prunes aie beginning to ripen. Death of Mrs. (Joss.

One of our fruits for export is grapes, and a large quantity of these are shipped every season from The Dalles. In talking with one of our grape growers yesterday he stated that he ht;d been shipping his fruit daily for I be past five weeks, and will continue lur several weeks more be fore the rrop is exhausted. So far be has reclized over a dollar a crate, and this as a good remuneration. Our side bills tliould be well adapted to grape culture, and vineyards around The Dalles will yet be a source of wealth to many. Prone Shipments at The Dalles. Fifteen cm loads of prunes left The Dalles dm ieg the week for tbe East. Good prices are expected for the fruit, as only the best was shipped, the poorer grades being sent to the dryers. A large number of Bartlett pears have also been shipped. They have realized the growers an average price of 11.25 a box, though the qual ity is scarci ly up to the standard, tbe hot weather having somewhat damaged pears. Soothing and Cooling.

Mckelsen Case (joes Over. Tbe Methodist conference, in ses sion last week at Moscow, passed over the case of C. D. Nickelsen until tbe next meeting at North Yakima. Though no report baa beea made to tbe conference, it is known that the committee on conference relations threshed tbe matter out early in the session. Mr. Nickelseu's 'friends at first were disposed to tight the matter through conference if necessary, but after reconsideration have come to tbe conclusion tbat while they believe tbey could wiu out in conference, the church trials are of such recent date that it would only raise trouble which might do more barm than good to Mr. Nickelseu himself as well as to the entire conference. The committee accordingly determined to lay the matter over another year. The mat ter being in tbis condition, tbe com mittee will make no report, and as Mr. Nickelsen's friends have agreed to tbis procedure, no minority report will be made, so that unless the unfor seen should happen the Nickelsen case is ended for this conference, says tbe Spokesman-Review. 160 acres, H miles from Mosier sta tion, on main road; good spring; $25 an acre; will divide; fine apple land.

Handsaker, whose portraits are shown above, will begin a series of meetings in a large tent near tbe old armory building on River street the first Sunday in Sep tember. Mr. and Mrs. Handsaker have been very successful in their work and win the highest regard of the people of all denominations wher ever they go, by their bright, gener ous, genial christian conduct. It ill be remembered that tbey conducted a very successful series of meetings at the Valley Christian church last win ter. The Christian church is growing very rapidly and is becoming a strong organization in Hood River valley. In 1890, tbis denomination ranked eighth among the churches of tbe United States. It now ranks sixth. The net gain in membership last year was 20, 4 Hi) and tbe members number 1,300,000 in the nation while in tbis state the membership in round num bers roaches 10,000, with a net gain of 1200, last year. Tbis body of christians hold and advocate the Divine inspiration of tbe Holy scriptures tbe all sufficient rev- lation of Uod to man aud tbe only rule of faith aud practice; the incar nation of the logos tbe eternal word of God in tbe person of the Lord Je' sub Christ ; that redemption from sin and the gift of everlasting life can be received only in His name, through faith, repentance and baptism; tbe necessity of a righteous, benevolent and holy life as an evidenoe, and the fruit of repentance; the desirability and necessity of christian union; of their mission to turn the world from the service of Satan to the service and worship of the Living Uod; the fullness and freeness of salvation offer ed in the gospel to all who will accept it on tbe terms given in the Word, and of the final everlasting separation of the ungodly from God and those who are saved in Christ, and tbeir eternal punishment by banishment from bis presence aud glory. All these things and many otbers will be fully aud clearly set before the people by Mr. Handsaker, who is a clear, logical and very pleasant and interest iug public speaker. Uluoier leaders will enjoy the meet ings if they attend, no matter of what faith they may le ; because there will not be beard a single word of abuse upon any denominational peculiarity or belief; it is not Mr. Handsaker's method of work. All are cordially invited and will be heartily welcomed. Home From Outing at Lost Lake. A. A. Jayne and family returned Monday night from a three-weeks out ing on the west fork aud at Lost Lake. The trip was thoroughly enjoyed by tbe entire family. Maurice returned with the pelt of a bear, while all of tbe party landed a goodly number of mountaiu trout. Mr. Jayne and tbe boys, in com pany with Ranger Steed, made the trip over the divide to Chit wood lake, thence on to tbe Sandy and tbe old Harlow road, where it swings around to the south of Mount Hood. Mr. Jayne considers tbis trial cut out by tbe rangers a very good piece of work. He thinks there should be a great deal of travel along this route, aud expects to see a road there in a very few years, as for sceinc attractions there is no other spot in the Cascade mountains to equal it. The party Bpent two weeks camped at tbe outlet of Lost Lake. Rain fell the first day there, when the air cleared and the weather was ideal, until last Sunday, when a rain and wind storm came up which lasted foi several hours. Tho Murkley boys, who hauled the camping party to tbe lake, are devel oping a splendid rauoh on thier home stead between tbe west and lake forks of Hood river.
