Denny was visiting bere last week. Rev. L. F. Belknap was in town Thursday. School opened Monday with a good attendance. The Gray Eagle is now making daily tripe to Portland. Grandma Knauche, who has been seriously ill, is slowly improving. W. K. Curtis of Forest Grove is in the city visiting friends and relatives. Threshing is completed in this vicinity and hauling straw is the order of the day. Dr. Leroy Lewis of McMinnville was in town Saturday doing some dental work. Mr. and Mrs. King of Apriary, Wash., who has been visiting with Mrs. D. M. Dorsey, returned home Tuesday. Most of the hops in this vicinity are harvested in good shape. Very little damage from mold or lice is reported. Louis Hoskins of Newberg was in town Monday, and reports everything in a flourishing condition at that place. Rev. Lee is to fill the Methodist pulpit for another year, which causes great rejoicing throughout the camp at this place. Eugene Wooster is confined to his home with the ague. J. H. Flower is filling his place at the drying plant of Wooster & Robinson. L. R. Aiderman left Saturday for Eugene where he will attend the state university. He will spend Sunday with hie uncle, Gen. W. H. Odell of Salem. Born, to the wife of Carl Launer, on Sept. 17th, a girl. Weight 7% pounds. The beaming smile on Carl’s face is visible quite a distance before he comes in sight. Dr. E. M. Smith is working on an in vention, the nature of which he keeps to himself. So look out for a perpetual motion apparatus, a flying machine or a rudder for a cylone. A. L. Aiderman is occasionally seen in front of his residence in his wheel chair. He is slowly recovering the use of his limbs, and it is thought that he will soon be able to walk again. We are very sorry indeed to lose our merchant, Mr. Matthies, as we were just getting acquainted with him and to appreciate hie value as a business man and citizen. May success go with him. Rev. Gordon and wife of Forest Grove paid this place a short visit Saturday, shaking bands with friendsand relatives. They left Monday for Drain where he will take charge of the Methodist pulpit. D. A. Snyder (the pioneer fruit merchant) is working his evaporator night and day and expects to keep it in operation all winter. Onions, potatoes and carrots will principally receive hie attention. Prof. Harry Simmons of Seattle is in town on a business trip. He has just returned from London, and is sent here to u ther investigate the mines west of McMinnville that created such an ex citement last year. So look out for another Klondike. Adam Roesner is going to the Klondike in the spring. He was in Alaska pros pecting in 1870, and his party had just found good indications of gold when their food gave out and winter came on. Ever since his return he has bad a desire to go back and is now determined to go in the spring. NORTH YANIHILL. Hop buyers offering 13 cents. Foggy mornings, soon comes winter. School will take up early in October, soon as families return from the hopfields. A white Russian sunflower on exhibi tion here measures 44 inches in circum ference. Can you beat it. Oats are not coming in to the ware houses as in former years, leading tn the belief that the quantity forexport will be small. This coming week will see many of the hop yards finished up and the people re turning to their homes to prepare for winter. Mr. A. J. Chapman, who is well known here, has just arrived from Umatilla, where he reports everything booming on account of the good prices. Wheat is worth 75 cents net. Buyers seem to know that many of the farmers’ payments are due October 1st, and down goes the price to meet the emergency. Mr. Perry’s warehouse has taken in so far about 18,000 bushels of wheat, which is more than the amount for either of the two preceding years, but far below the old time figure. Miss Hoffstatter has left us for the present to take a college course in your city. Higher education wanted for women. Men need all the education they can obtain. A rumor was afloat that Geldard’s thresher had burned up in Moore’s val ley, along with some stacks. It seems that the thresher was saved, but two stacks of grain burned for Mr. Smith. Loss perhaps about $300. Someone returning from a dance the other night, by some means got rid of one wheel of the buggy. Dancing is costly. One of our revival preachers here last week designated the dance hall the “ante-room of hell.” Think of it, young people and parents. Word comes from one hop yard that there was danger of a shooting scrape, and that one man was knocked on the head with a rail and another severely beaten. When will men learn that arbi tration or anything else is better than brute force to settle disputes. The demand for draining tile is increas ing every year as our farmers become alive to their own interests. Our tile factory is adding to its facilities, and a car load of tile left for Hood River this week, and more to follow. The very clay of old Yamhillis ahead when manipulated by brains. The lovely Indian summer weather of the last week has helped out the farmers and hop growers. Threshing is almost done and hop-picking in the late yards will likely be over by the 30th, if this weather holds out. Hops are still in fair condition, and any doubtful hills are be ing left, but the quality will not be all first-rate. The grain, with the exception of some oats, will mostly pass as first-rate, and none lost so far. The roads leading to town from the hop yards are not ns pleasant to travel over as usual, owing to the fact that some of our strangers who are helping gather the hop crop seem to forget the dignity that ought to pertain to man and womanhood and American citizenship, and their appear ance and actions would lead one to be lieve they had been drinking something stronger than water. Our roads are only sixty feet wide, and ought to be made broader or the license of some of the citi zens curtailed. The hop business may be good to bring in money at times, but the final reckoning may prove that we would be better without it.

Laurence Black preached his farewell sermon last Sunday, as he re turns to McMinnville college to acquire further education and eventually enter the ministry. Mr. Black is a young man attending college, and during the vaca tion earns money to finish his education. He has, during the past three months, Allied the pulpit of the Baptist church in this city and given excellent satis faction. He leaves with the very best wishes of bis congregation. The church has been'well filled every Sunday, and the general opinion expressed is that Mr. Black will eventually make a min ister of more than usual ability.—Inde pendence West Side.

WEEKLY CHOP BULLETIN. P ortland , Sept. 20, 1897. Except on Tuesday when scattered showers occurred, especially in the southern counties, fair weather has prevailed with higher temperatures. The first light frosts were observed on the morning of the 15th. The mean temperature of the week, 65 degrees, is 6 degrees higher than for the preceding week. The maximum temperature averaged 79 degrees,and the minimum 50 degrees, the highest maximum, 88 degrees, occurred on Saturday, and the low est minimum, 42 degrees, occurred on Wednesday. The total rainfall varied from a trace to 0.10 of an inch. The winds were generally northerly, and the atmosphere was very clear. The weather was favorable for threshing, hoppicking, fruit-drying, plowing and seeding. The rains the fore part of the month did little real damage to the wheat, and reports at hand show no total loss; some wheat and oats sprouted, some were bleached, but the dry weather com ing at an opportune time allowed of practically no damage to the grain crop. Threshing has been actively prosecuted and is nearly all done. About one-third of the hop crop has not been picked and is lost—due to lice in the first place, and second ly, and the main cause, to the rainy weather producing mold. The hops are now practically all picked, and the drying will be finished before the close of the month. The rain caused the petite prunes to crack open, but drying being active, little loss resulted. The prune crop is re ported to be the largest ever pro duced in the state, and of extra quality. Grapes are ripening nicely; they are a larger and much better crop than usual. Wine-making has com menced. Figs have ripened in Curry county, and it appears that they can there be grown with profit. The apple crop is very heavy. The flax crop for fibre has been safely gathered, and is now being pre pared. Potato digging is in progress and large yields are reported. Carrots, onions, sugar beets, etc., are re ported to be immense crops. The experiments have demonstrated the successful growth of sugar beets containing a very high percentage of saccharine matter. The soil is in fine condition for plowing and seeding, both of which are being pushed vigorously. The second crop of clover is being cut. The pastures are again green and stock is assuming a prime condition. Everything this year has been suc cessful except hops, and even that crop is good where it was properly attended to. B. S.
