CROPS N MARION COUNTY.

CROPS IN MARION COUNTY.
The fall wheat and meadows are very
rank and forward, fears are had Of their
lodging. Spring grain looks we'll.
Gardens are about an average. The
insects are hard on cabbage plants and |
turnip tops. Very many LawtoR black
berry patches are killed, and many {
apple, plum and pear trses the same.
There will likely be an average crop Of
fruit here this year. About one-fourth
Of the spring grain on low lands is yet
to sow. A larger acreage Of grain will
be harvested this year than ever before
in Marion county. The present price
Of grain seems to cheer up our farmers
and they think the good times coming.

ANOTHER FIRE.-Our readers will
that we chronicled the burn
ing Of new school house in the A. 8.
Marshall district, In this county, few
weeks or SO ago. Well, 1t seems that
the directors secured the use Of an old
church building In which to continue
the school, and last Sunday night-just
three wseks later than the other fire
this old church building was also burn
edi 1t looks just leetle like some In
dividual was down on that school and
was determined that 1t shouldn't run.
And 1t is more than likely that If the
citizens OF that nelghborhood should
happen to secure personal introduce
ton to that individual, an impromptu
court will put itself into immedi-
ate practical operations and set him
afire too.
GLAD TO HEAR IT.--We learn from
Mr.. J. A. AIillard, who has just return
ed from brief visit to Ochoco Valley,
that E. A. Freeland, for many years
our Albany oNasby," but now resi-
dent of Ochoco--has recently had a
successful surgical operation performed
on his leg which was badly hurt last
fall and which has given him much
suffering and annoyance for months
past; and, although grave fears were
entertained for a time that amputation
would be necessary, 1t is now believed
that he will get along all right. His
many friends in Linn will be pleased
to hear this good news.
