main here over night, being in this city on

The Markets

The wheat market remains unchanged,
with highest quotations in this city at 65c +;
but each week makes the shortage appear so
great throughout the United States that
nothing else than high prices can very well
prevail. regardless of any European war, an
uncertain event. Flour, s. bran, $40 !;
middlings, Sl6. No change in meats, cured
or fresh. New potatoes continue 1t 20 cents

have arrived at soc. per gallon. Strawberries

From private letter from Mr. Reid, who
purchased Oregon Beauty, 1.-THE mare with
the long tail and mane.l of o p Adams, OF
Miller's, in this county, we learn that MIR
Reid showed her four days in Medford and
toek in SoSS, two days in Red Blsffs and took
in SIPS, three days in Chico and took in
SIT, one day at 0roville and took in SIS. 30,
making total of $63l9 90 in 10 days. 1t
would seem Mr. Reid got good bargain when
he gave $500 for the Oregon Beauty" but
Mr. Adams has colt that outstrips the mare
in beauty and worth. Mr. Reid writes that
he was offered $500 by two different per.
sons, but declares he would not take four
times that sam for the mare.

Gloomy Prospects.

The Farmers Repie'e, published at Chicago,
under date of May 3lst, gives a summing up
from the reports of 5000 correspondents, GOV.
ering every wheat producing county in Ohio,
Michigan, Nebraska, Illinois. Kentucky,
Tennessee, Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Wiscon-
sin, Minnesota and Dakota. together with q
very accurate and recent summary OF the
Pacific Coast. The outlook for fall wheat is
the worst for ten years. The total yield OF
winter and spring wheat this year will fall
considerably short of the short crop Of 1881
When the total product was $4,000 bushels.
The total yield it is thought will be about
800, coo, 600 bushels against an average yie,d
of 464, 900, go bushels last year.

Down from Fox valley.

Mr. Trask. of Fox Valley, is in the

Court in the interest of the proposed bridge
at Mehama, A bridge at that point would
prove wonderful factor in building up that
section of the county, which is now held
back by large ferriags fees across the Santi-
am. Certainly a bridge will have to be con-
structed there at some time, and the citizens
there ara most emphatic in saying that now
is the time.
