Fer week ending May asth, 1889, Oregon
State weather Bureau, co operating with Y
s Signal Service, central office, Portland,
Oregon.
The rainfall has been below the average,
the temperature has been about or slightly
above the average and the amount Of sun
shine has been very much above the aver
age, The effects OF these conditions have
been exceedingly favorable to crops of all
descriptions. Better weather could moi have
prevailed for The benefit Of the growing
crops. The recent rains which were some
wnat cole, had tendency to retard the
maturity Of strawberries and cherries and
to cause the wheat to lodge and go to too
much straw.
The warmth and sunshine Of the past
week matured rapidly the strawberries and
cherries and visIbly affected the wheat and
other crops favorably. Had the weather
turned suddenly hot after the rainy spell
the result would have been detrimental.
However, the weather was tempered just
right to harden the stock and leaf and to
gradually prepare them for the more fer
vent heat yet to come.
Reports f,om all parts OF the State are
of "a most encouraging nature. Wheat Is
from 90 to 20 inches high, the heads about
feur inchea long which arc well formed,ln.
dlcatlng 20 bushel yield all over the State.
In Eastern Oregon the cereals are In nm ex.
cellent condition, tnost OF the barley and
wheat have headed out. The fruit Is OF
fine quality and promises 10 yield abund.
antly. In Western and Southern Oregon
the conditions are ell that could be asked
for. the yield will be greater than ever
before. Strawberries are being picked and
shlpf ID by the ton, II Is especially noticed
that they arc so large,many Of them meas.
urinE from TO inches In circumference.
Cherries arc rapidly maturing, but the pre-
vious cool, rainy weather caused them to
blight somewhat. Pears are setting more
fully than for years. The cool, rainy spell
retarded eppies slightly. The prune and
plum crop will Yield excessively. Peaches
are greatly troubled with curl leaf, which
prevails In most sections. Aldapger from
frost IL passed and with the present damp
ness OF the soil aad the state OF the weather
the prospsets for all crops are exceedingly
favorable. A continuation OF fair weather
and moderate temperature will prove OF
benefit and value TO all crops, In sections
where the soil has tendency 70 bake few
showers would prove of benefit The week
was marked for It's excellent growing and
maturing weather.

The gem that filled It sparkles yet.

S. II. Barrett's Worlds Fair, an unexeeiI-

marvels, menagsrie excerpts and racing
carnival will also pitch It's city ofsnow white
tents here on the same date. These two
shows have visited here before separately
in different seasons, and this year they
come as one-giying two parades the same
day, and two complete shows for but one
price Of admission. This will insure tre-
mendous crowds. We know them both TO
be m=ritorious, and how on earth two such
shows can pay consolidated Is past our
comprehension. Either one heretofore
was as large as any that ever visited ss,
and the two combined will make such an
exhibition as Is seen but once In lifetime.
The combined parades will be novelty.
They are divided into four divisions, each
division preceded by brass band. The
