The present ': favorable , weather is
doing wonders for the hop yard of

change should occur soon, Oregon will

crops of Jiopa quality, not quantity

unknown this year, owing to the vig

favorable weather conditions, and. the
crop promises to mature somewhat
earlier than, usual, a fact' that" hi eu

ever, and the majority of growers
will not begin before the end of the

MT. AIRY, Waldo Hills, Aug. 10.
Most people think that to enjoy good
health during the winter, a summiT
outing is a necessity. To thluk of
lreiking up housekeeping, packing up
half of your household good, climb
luto a hack, or vehicle of some sort,
plodding along for three or four days,
reach your destination tired and hun
gry,' set up camp, sleep ou a straw
bedV dream of snakes and cut worms,
is not very jrreat pleasure to one;
an where one lias tho gol fortuno
to receive an invitation to siHud a
few weeks In a country home, that
one is foolish who would not accept
It. Not being foolish I accepted such
an luvfrAtion.
Coming from a country of cyclones,
blizzanH hot wimls, chintje-bugs. aivt
PopulistA, om Is tfully able to appre
ciate tlft? climate of Oregon. While
Salem is a very deslra-ble place tu
wlilch to Mve,! it Is not tb be com
pared with the Waldo Hills.
We left Salem atout 2 p. 111. on
day last' week. In company with .Mrs.
O. W. Putnam and son. Ivan, anil
phMldid i along in the ' dust my first
exiiericnce with real Oregon dust, to
which 'distance- leuds 'etichaiiliueut.-
We reached "Mt. A1r-.M the smntry
home of Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Put
nam. In the Waldo Hills, covered with
what we supposed was -gohLdnst; tint,
haviug found a pan-and tested It, woj
decided It was ns great! a delusion as
the -gold-fields of Nome. Aftor a few
hours! struggle, with soap ami water,
we emerged from the bath-room In
qnlte a, retqiectahlo eoiKlitlon.
Tlie ijext thing was snpior, we
call It dinner in Salem, 4iut this was
a genuine good country supper, to
which we did ample Justice.
We retlreil". iNirlyj cntrary to city
habits, but fell to talking -not gos
siping we thought i for fifteen min
utes, but next morning our next door
neighlior entcriMl a- omplalnt of 100
much talking for country folks. Ar
tor a good night's rest, we wcut to
BEGGAR,
the I Kirn -yard to watch Ivan "pall
the cow;" after lielng lauglMsl at for
not knowing that n. ieculiar hioklug
little tlirce-cornerel cncern. lying
quite close to tlie ground, was a
chlekcn-eoop, Margaret proitosed .that
they siiow me what a calf was, but
not Isflng a M-lssourian I didn't havo
to be showed."
A more beautiful morning never
dawned than Friday, August loth,
mode more is-autiful by Hie scenery
of the surrounding country. Just
north of "Mt. Airy" Is a stretch-- of
land perhaps a jinlle across, which
rises high alpoVe tlie rest of the 'con ii-'-try,
and where. I the threshers ha to
Just finished, their work. It pri'sent-
a most Iteauiifitl islglrt. -The greater
iwrt f this hill was planted In grain,
bnt some place were found unlit for
planting, and now one may see a yel
low mass, dotted Iwre and there with
patches of bright green.
Just on top of the hill stands ono
lone tree, throwing. -out Its branches
and making a sluide. Inviting one to
rest there: on reaching' -the sot one
find, the place - occupied by a few
sleek-looking cows, wsrulnar all tres
lassers to ki-ep away; a little farther
on along tin western slope-of the hill
Is a stretch of tlmlier alKut a quarter
of a lutle long which ahl much to
