HOPS The Crop Almost a Failure.1 New York State Suffers Scvcrely Oregon Prospect. The vvcutlier 1ms been perfect for the developemcnt of hops, and lice are fast disappearing. The hot weather' has given the lice a set back. Never, before have Oregon hops had u better prospect and with diligent spraying I hop men will be able to harvest a ' supurb quality and an enormous1 yield. More spraying Is being done than ever before. Oregon has a larger acreage under cultivation this season than last and from present Indications will harvest a crop of about 80,000 bales. Califor nia is estimated at about -10,000 bales. Washington Is now the smallest of the Pucillc coast hop growing Stasesand primlses a crop In wetslcrn Washing ton of nlKJUt 12,000 bales of choice quality, and in eastern Washington of about 8,000 bales of Indifferent quality. It is altogether likcly.that the sur plus stock of hops in tho United States, held prlncipaly by brewers will have some serious Inroads made into this year for export to England, because or tho smallness of the crop there, the acreage being smallest known in 20 years, and with an aver age yeild of 800 weight per acre, which is above the average. The product will probably reach 400,000 hundred-weight and the chances are that this will be reduced by the vermin, which are reported plentiful In all the hop gardens of England. If the Insect pest holds un tlll the flowering time, the yeild will be still farther curtailed. Louis R. dearies, one of the largest dealers in New York and Pacific coast liops, cays that, even with the most favorable crop report In England that can possibly be made, there must be large Importations from the continent and the United States and the brewers will be obliged to use considerable of or their surplus of two years ago. New York will produce about 20,000 bales less in 1897 than In 1890 when the yield was 90,000 bales. This Is due to reduced acreage and poor culti vation. Under the most favorable circumstances, we cannot look for more than 10,000 bales, and there is a possibility of even less than that be cause of the vermlne which aro alarm ingly plentiful In all the hopgrowlng sections. These lnsect3 are worse now than they have been since 1880, when the crop was entirely destroyed, tand if they continue to Increase during the next two weeks, the damage will be great and the estimates for the '97 crop may have to bo revised. New York price today: Iienorts have been such as to cause prices to look up a little, and market has a firmer tone. The movement Is oot large"; but If there is no improve ment in crop reports here and abroad, a further advance may follow. State 1S90 choice hops are 9c.

A Suggestion, Now that we have the spans and floor of, that most needed Williumette bridge in good repair again, so that it Is safe to cross. We haye reason to congratulate ourselves. But why could not that gate to the city of Sa lem and to o'ir county from the other be made, not only a conylcnlcnce but also a profitable ornament? By giv ing the railing a painting, having the approaches planked with a single floor, instead of a double floor, which only causes the whole thing to rot in one fourth of the time. Have a man equipped with a saw, a hammer, a broom and a shoyel, guarding against abuse of the bridge and keeping It clean and In repair. Such a man would not cost over $400 a year; and it would not only give a good man a chance of earning his bread and but ter but would also bo a saving to the taxpayers Indeed. P. V.

An altercation took place at the farm of Mrs. Martha McDonald, near Dallas, Mr Galbraltb, who rented the farmon shares, refused to give his landlady her share of the crop, and Mrs. Mcdonald took a team to haul In her portion of the hay, when she was assaulted by Galbraltb with a pitchfork, and her arm broken.

More About Renting Two Places for the Salem Militia. Editor Journal: Knowing that you desire to give botli sides a hearing in all matters pretaining to public business, I take the liberty to make the following brief explanation in re gards to the "Two Armories." Last fall before Capt. Leabo assumed com mand of "B" company I was In charge of the state property belonging to the two companies stationed at tills place, and also virtually In charge of the companies. Feeling that the rent which wo were charged for thq armory owned by Mrs. Hubbard was rather exorbitant in view of the fact that there were no sanitary accomodations In connection with tho building and that the roof was very leaky. There was a committee appointed to inter, view Mrs. ITubbard in regard to making the necessary repairs or re ducing the rentso that we might be enabled to do It. She refused, to do either, bo I rented the upper floor of the building owned by Yr. Hughes for the sum of $50) per year and moved Into It, we were thus enabled to se cure better accomodations at a sav ing of $100 per year. "When Captain Leabo assumed charge of "B" com pany he moved back into the old armory and endeavored to persuade me to do the same. Mr. Hughes then cut my rent to $300 per year which was the same amount that wo would haye to p.iy Mrs. Hubbard. Then I sublet the drill hall for dancing pur poses to E. M. La Fore who assumed the expense of decorating the hall and plaining the ilooor besides priying us $3.00 per night for the use cf it thus we were enabled to sayo from $10 to $12 per month. As far as the county or state isconcerned in renting tho arm ory for the companies it Is misunder stood. The state allows $15 for run ning expenses. Tho extra allowance made by the county court was used by me in fitting up a rifle range and not to pay armory rent or to maintain a smoking club as your correspondent suggests, noplng you will see the fairness of my position in this matter. i am yours, John A.

It is remarkable fact that a rran never ap- Ereciates the sufferings of others until he imself, has passed through the fire of pain or remorse. Then It is that lie looks around for those who are suffering he wants them to profit by his experience he gives his time and money gladly for the benefit and never tires of his real. There are plenty of men weak and worn out, struggling with remorse and fear, and the natural outcome of habits that brought incapacity a sense of lonesomeness and a feeling as If the best side of life had been banished forever. Such men should write to Thomas Slater, Box 390, Kalamazoo, Mich. He will send free of charge by mail, in a plain sealed envelope full particulars about the method he used, and this will enable any man to get a complete cure at home. It is the method Mr. Slater used to cure himself of the troubler that sap the strenght and vigor. The cure was so complete, to satisfying and such wonderful change from his former condition that he will gladly tell others all about it, sending all particulars. He figures that he doesn't know of a better way to show his ap preciation of his own cure and the sufferings of others. There must Le generous men in this world to off-set the tide of avarice.
