ScARCITY cF FRUrr.-At this season of the
year there ought to be an abundance of good
fruit in the Walla Walla market. But for some
reason or other the very reverse of this. is the
case The few apples that find their way to the
town are poor aud scrubby, and whether for
eating or cooking are almost worthless. The
failure of the CROP presume, accounts for
the scarcity of good fruit and we refer to the
fact for the purpose of suggesting to our Will
annette Valley friends the proprety of sending
us a portion of their surplus stock.

The JOIN DAY TRADE.-An esteemed friend
who has for years been engaged in teaming and
packing in the upper country, calls our attention
to the fact that Canyon City is distant from
Walla Walla less than two hundred miles, and
that the John Day mines can be reached quite as
readily from this locality as from any point on
the Columbia River. The theory of our friend
is, that by proper effort thriving trade can be
built up between Walla Walla and the John Day
couutry-oue that would yield profit to our
own producers and give employment to our
teamsters and packers. The two great staples of
the miaing trade, -four and bacon, rule lower in
this market than at any other point on the
River, aud with this advantage in our favor we
ought to secure the larger portion Of this trade,
As it is now, the -four consumed in the John
Day country is teamed from here to Walula /;
thence is freighted down the River, at a total
cost of not less than SIS per ton, all of which
is a tax upon the consumer. By opening up a
direct trade with the John Day country we shall
Al.
tax and secure for our own producers most
desirable market.
