Tha weather of the past week has been similar
70 that OF the preceding one; cold rains nearly
every day with little sunshine Heavy frosts
were general, especially in the North, on the
18th TO l3th. The high, warm wind of the I4th
did some damage, though not extensive Sun

damaged in many localities north OF Lewis

no part of Western Washington escaped unhurt

that they need sun badly. Hop lice are not in

EASTERN WASHINGTON.
The weather of this part of the state has some
what improved on that of the week preceding
this week; copious rains with more or less soft
snow have fallen; the temperature, up to the
1ith, has been low, falling to % degrees on the
18th There has been more sunshine than dur
ing the week before. The warm south wind
OF the 14th inst raised the temperature 10 to 25
degrees. Heavy frosts occurred nearly every
night, though their effect was, as in the western
part of the state, much modified by the cloudy
weather The effect of the cold, wet weather has
been generally to retard the growth OF fall grain
and the sprouting of spring sown grain aud to
delay seeding. In some sections of the northern
part OF Whitman county seed has been sown in
the ground twenty days without terminating.
This condition is not, however, widespread.
In this county seeding Is nearly DONE and 10
rapidly approaching completion. In some Sec
tons OF the northern counties and Whitman
county fall wheat looks badly and does not
grow well, but this is not gener-
rally the case, though none. OF the
wheat is growing as rapidly as il
desirable. 1t is stated by many that the cold
weather has the beneficial effect of retarding
the growth and thus making stockier scool. A
few days of bright, warm weather would have
the much desired effect of warming the soil and
Fastening the termination of seed. Reports
from fruit sections are favorable, the frosts of
the 18th and 18th do not seem to have injured
fruit to any great extent Slight injury to early
peaches is reported in Columbia county. Re-
ports unitein saying that tine ground is in I'M
usually good condition and that the prospects
for large crops are excellent"

a Balance Sheet Causes Light TO SHINE
Upon Things Not Known.
From the EeD York Mail and Express.
The balance sheet of a brokerage firm
submitted by the bookkeeper recently had
the following item, which at first caused no
end of trouble and afforded finally great
amount of amusement:
Good humor account ....................Si Sis 90
1t was in vain that the junior partner ridi-
culed, scolded, and laughed at the book
keeper. That dignitary insisted the ac-
count was correct, that the good humor"
sheet was not scheme to rob the firm, and
that it bad been opened by special orders of
the senior member Of the firm. Accordingly
nothing could be done until the senior who
was away when the balance sheet was first
submitted, returned. Then Mr.. Junior,
ringing for the boy, ordered the immediate
presence of the bookkeeper, and babe him
bring the good humor account" with him.

indicating the Objectionable account with a
red pencil on the balance sheet. rs that
