The mean tempera aturc was 44 degrees, and the rainfall varied from three-quarters of an Inch to one inch and a quarter. Frost oc curred oti March 30 and April JJ. Sunshine prevailed to some extent on several days. The weather was unfavorable to growth of vegetation. Fall-sown grain is in fairly good condition. The win tor season was not favorable to plow ing, and the result is there not the acreage of ira'.in sown. Considerable secidng was done in February. Some correspondents report that oats was l'uicn out by the November freeze; tills condition is not general. The temperature the latter part or No vember was no), below 10 degree above 7.ero, and it lasted but a short time, so that geneaal fieezlng out Is impos sible. Owing to the unfavorable con ditions during the past live, months, the spring-sown grain will have a gieatcr acreage than usual. Grain can safely be sown in Oregon up to the middle of May, and fair crop?. 15 bushels per acre of wheat and more, have been gathered from grain sown as late as June 1. The fruit crop was, in a compara tive sense, a failure last year. The trees had a phenomenal growth; new wood from 8 to 15 feet long has been frequent. The cool weather of March has delayed budding, and the result Is all correspondents report "prospects for a big fruit crop never more promis ing." Many acres of fruit-trees have been set out during the winter, and many acres of young orchards will come into bearing this year. Prune, pear, apple and cherry trees have been the most extensively set out. The buds are swelling. In the south ern counties some almond and apricot trees are in bloom, and in some sheltered places olsowhere cherry trees are allowing color. The stock is not in prime condition. The cold rains of March did not allow 'the pastures to recover, the resulti is feed is somewhat scarce; a few days of warm weather will furnish new food. Lambing has commenced. News from hop yards In Lane county is that but little work has been done toward getting them in shape for cultivation. The con tinued wet weather kept the ground in a condition that prevented cultiva tion. A New York antuorlty, under a late date, reports as follows concern ing the hop market in the East: More stock has been moved this week, chiefly to brewers who have been calling for goods bought some time ago. New business is still within very narrow compass, and the extreme dullness of trade has caused weakness throughout. Then, too, tho effort on the part of growers to unload their stock on this market has added to the depression. Brokers have had numer ous samples to show on which they have tried zealously to secure bids, and quite a good many commission goods have been scattered about town. This is usually a disturbing element, but coming at a time when there is practically no demand it operates seriously against the trade. Effort to find custom has resulted in lower rates and we drop quotations to 12 12c for choice Pacifies, and to lie for finest state, with those figures some what nominal. The bulk of the hold ings are of lower grades and those have an exceedingly uncertain yalue. All the country markets are virtually at a standstill, Foreign advices re port more tradlng,'buC 'dealers seem anxious to close out 6tock on hand rather than make new purchases. A prominent dealer in tho hop iracle, ilocated in San Francisco, tarnishes tho following statistics of the hop yield on this coast: On hand. July 1, 1896.

Mr. John Hay, our new ambassador, pays $2000 a month. His salary is $17,500 a year. Lucky for him tliat he married a rich wife A Michigan merchant recently re ceived a $5 note, on which was in scribed: "Young man, beware of wine and women," and on the other side was: "January 1, 1897. Tills is the la9t $5 bill of a $200,000 fortune." Two negoes In the the ripeness of age died at Solomon, Ga., one of 107 years and another of 05, and the re ports of their death drew attention to Thomas Tharp, of the same neigh borhood, a negro 111 years old. A London syndicate has purchased all tho coal lands in Jackson county, Ohio, paying $4,000,000, for tho pur pose of forming a tremendous coal trust. The deal amounts to a con solidation of more than 20 home com panics. FT1HE workman often eats Iii9 luncn on tne same bench where he docs his work. The office man snatches a few min utes from his occu- pation and turns his aesu into a aining tablc. Neither gets the exercise he needs, neither takes the proper time for eatincr. It is small wonder that the digestion of both gets out of order. Nature works as hard as she can, but there are some things she cannot stand. If a man gets some foreign substance into the works of his watch, he doesn't expect the watch to run until the impediment is re moved. His own digestive system is a much more wonderful and delicate mechan ism than that of his watch, and yet he neg lects it and abuses it He lets it get out of order, and refuses to help it In the end his neglect reacts with terrible force upon himself. The reaction come3 on gradually, however, so that sometimes he scarcely sus pects the cause. The cause of nine-tenths of the sickness of the world is constipation a condition so common that four people out of five take it as a matter of course. From this one cause come indigestion ; disorders of the stomach, liver and kidneys; biliousness, headaches, flatulence, heartburn, impurity of the blood and the serious complications that follow. To begin with, constipation is a little thing, and a little thing will cure it. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are tiny, sugar coated granules. They give to nature just the little help she needs. They are as trentle as they are efficient and will per fectly euro the worst cases of constipation. There is nothing in the world like them, so there can be nothing "just as good."
