Salem and the Willamette valley so
far in front that she will hold her
own against all competitors for years
to come.
Property is now within your reach,
and if you do not take advantage OF
your opportunities it will not be our
fault.
We are free to admit that we are
interested in your welfare in selfish
way, and that our incentive to inter-
eat you in property is largely due to
the small commission which will fall
to our share, but it is not all, as you
will perceive upon reflection. we
have reputation to build up and
sustain, and an ambition to extend
our acquaintance and enlarge our
circle of friends.
This course cannot help but en-
large our business and make 1T a
pleasant pursuit as well To ac-
complish this we must prove to you
that our Judgment is good and that
our motives are not entirely selfish
or enough so as to cause us to inf1u-
ence anyone to invest where he
might lose all his hard earned
pennies.
Our trade is rapidly increasing and
we flatter ourselves that our efforts
in behalf of Salem and her people are
being duly appreciated, yet we do
not expect nor desire more trade than
we merit and which the merits of
our property deserve. Come and see
us and if we cannot please you go to
some other agent and look at his
bargains, but do not neglect to in
vest now. If you do you will have
to buy and pay the newcomers a
profit which you could just as well
have had as your own.

CROPS.

The rain came down at most
opportune time and has greatly ben
Gifted everything. Rain two weeks
ago would have insured large
spring crop, but as ii is, usual con-
litions from now ON, will allow Il
large crop to be harvested. III
many sections late sown spring
grain did not gerniuate and tn,
present rains may yet produce yields
where none were expected. Rail,
was badly needed; ~ u the 2Stl,
none of any consequence having
fallen since April 20th, and the
temperature has been rather high
Is a result the ground became hard
and there was not that grOwtl
which was desired. In Grant coun-
ty on the Goth, temperature reached
930 and grass on hills drying
ap. Killing frosts in Baker
county on 2Sth and 30th, and
Light in Union county which did
little damage on the 2Sth. Grain
and other crops are very promising
in the Grande Ronde valley. In
Umatilla county snow fell in the
mountains on the 2Sth. Wheat
heading out and doing finely; in
spots 1t is burned slightly. Spring
wheat Is very promising. In Nor
row, wheat continues promising,
more rain desired. Considerable
wind during the week. Rain is
needed in Gillian county. Rye has
made n good crop, wheat looks well
and rain will insure n fine yield.
Apples promising well. Frost on
28th, did some damage; spring grain
not doing well. In Wnsco and
Sherman winter wheat promising.
Cool weather very beneficial; late
sown grain has not come up we'll.
Fruit is doing well. In Jackson Co.
alfalfa cutting began on 26th, yield
good The continued warm dry
weather unfavorably affected crops
in Douglas county, but the present
rain will produce favorable change.
Excellent crops are almost now GER
tain throughout the Willamette
valley. Fall wheat, when sown on
summer fallow, is in fine condition
and in any event will produce a good
crop. When sown on stubble land
IL Is not 80 good.
The spring wheat has been an un-
certain crop, but the present weather
will allow of fair crop to be har-
vested.
Strawberries are cheap and plenty
ful. Cherries are nearly ripe. Vege.
tables are abundant.
1t seldom fails to rain at the proper
time in Oregon and the present rain
was most opportune.

We have made it the polio of the
corporation which we represent to
recommend only such property as
will prove profitable to the investor
and which possesses an actual value
entirely distinct and separate from
a speculative value, and which, at
the same time possesses rare qualities
and is located where it has the great
est prospective value of any in the
market.
Lying in a country possessed of a
fertile soil aud beautiful scenery, it is
natural for the inhabitants who give
a thought to such things to desire to
locate upon high and slightly ground,
aud where there is deep, rich, black
soil.
In country like this valley, of
course, there are no bluffs. Near the
river are prairies like the one which
lies to the east of Salem.
Hence to find the highest, sightli-
est and healthiest as well as the most
fertile you must seek the highest of
the level ground in sight. In select
ing and buying our own homes we
were influenced by these qualities,
and believing that we are an average
in our tastes with other men, we
have made our investments and
secured other property to sell in the

The Angle Worm,

There is nothing especially inter
csting about the angle worm ITSELF
1t is the effect it has upon the lives
of mankind, and boykind especially,
that weaves u halo of interest about
this otherwise uninteresting object
There are many different breeds o.
the angle worm, but those who need
them in their business do not examine
into the pedigree Of those that come
to hand first. Any smooth, fat,
wiggly worm will do, be it mongrel
or thoroughbred.
Why the denizcns Of the two most
unstable elements, air and water.
should have an appetite for the hum.
bic worm, is one ofthe great myster'
les of nature. 1t is lucky for the
worm that it is neither a swimmer
nor flyer. and it Gun also thank its
stars, if it ever had any, that birds
and fish cannot handle q spade. II
the worm would give up it's habit Of
going to meet the early bird it could
pnss it's lie il comparative safety in
the depths of it's sub-cellar.
The nun who discovered that fish
liked worms is responsible for con.
siderable Juvenile and masculine de,
pravity. Fishing cannot be success
fully cntried ON without the worm.
Any old tin con will do to carry the
worms in.
1t lis almost On iniaiitble omen when
a boy is seen with a spade and con
that he will lie missed ut school OF,
the morrow. or when u man is seen
with the some Implements Saturday
evening, that lie win be missed ut
church next Sunday. 1t is not right
to dig for angle worms on Sunday

ACQUISITION Of Time.

A story Is going the rounds about
n local juryman. an Irishman, who
cleverly outwitted judge, and that
without lying.
He came breathlessly into court,
saying:

me, pray do! lido not know which
will die first, my wife or my daugh,

4tDear me! that's sad" said the ia
nocent judge; certainly you are ex-
cused."
TIE next day the juryman vas met
by q friend, who, in a sympathetic
voice, asked:
"How's your wife,"
"Shas all right, thank you?"
*'And your dnughter?"
"she's all right, too. Why do ycs
ask?"
why, yesterday you sold you did
not know which would die first!"
