BIG GRAIN YIELD.

The st. Paul Pioneer Press, in
the first colu mn of its first page
under big, scare headlines, the
first of which is can Immense
Yield" publishes the news that a
Minnesota farmer harvested 434
bushels of wheat per acre from a
154-acre field. Another report
says the crop in certain locality
is the best in eleven years, and
the wheat looks good for 80
bushels to the acre. Another re-
port predicts 25 bushels. An
other says the average for one
county will be Is bushels at
least-the heaviest since 1884.
In another section it will be from
Is to IS bushels; in another 1s to
20.
These are doubtless good yields
for Minnesota, and the first and
largest mentioned, very good for
any country, but for the size of
the field such crop in various
parts of Oregon would not be con-
sidered worth mentioning. Scores
of large fields-from 40 to 100
acres each-in the Willamette
valley and in Eastern Oregon will
yield this year from 35 to As
bushels. One man last week re-
ported a yield of So bushels an
acre, and didn't brag much about
it.
Yet Minnesota and the Dakotas
along with the Pacific Northwest
and other parts of the country will
raise an immense aggregate crop
this year. The Pioneer Press
estimates that the yield in the
/ three states will be of wheat 150,-
100000, oats 116,000,OO0, corn
81 900, 1000, and other grains in
lesser amounts, the total value be-
ing about $2OO,oOo,OOO, of which
over $3.50, 100000 worth will be
for export.-Telegram.

viseable, for man who will bite
at these circulars is both fool and
a knave; a fool because he swal-
lows the bait and a knave because
lie does so with the dishonest pur-
pose of getting fraudulent money
with which to cheat his fellow citi-
zens and break the law, and he
richly deserves the lesson he
learns; but a desire to break up
such a vicious business and pre-
vent the prospering of such con-
scienceless rascals as the 'green
goods" men, is the motives tor
publishing an expose OF their
methods.-Oregonian.

try lying In and beyond the noun

THE recent decision of the Uni
ted States courts puts $14,000,O0O
into Edison's pocket. What will
he do with it? Never before has
a decision brought such all inun-
dation of wealth. Edison sued a
company which had been using
his invention, and after six years
of litigation he has triumphed.
The defendants were making
enormous profits, which they must
now turn over to the fortunate
electrician. Edison is the richest
inventor the world ever saw.
Some ingenious calculators have
been trying to figure up his in
come, and they have reckoned the
different inventions until they are
tired, without touching bottom.
1t would not be surprising if they
were almost as large as Jay
Gould's. Wealth, indeed, is flow
ing in with incredible volume, and
this decision is worth $14,0OO,O0O.
There is one invention, however,
which de6es Edison's skill, and
that is how to cure deafness. No
doubt Edison, as soon as he heard
of the above decision, would have
turned over all it brought him for
restoration of hearing. The un-
fortunate man is so deaf that he
he cannot enjoy the benefit of his
great prosperity. How often, in
deed, the most splendid success is
embittered by some disaster which
Becomes the more painful because
of the impossibility of relief.

ALFALFA is destined to revolu-
tionize farming, because 1t will
produce three tons of feed for
stock where one is now grown.
A field of alfalfa commences to
grow two months before our ma
tive grass and grows two months
longer. When cut and cured for
hay it retains its superior fine
quality, which is relished by the
stock. 1t produces three times as
much to the acre as our native
grass, and twice as much as clover.

The "green goods'' men are
