other piece of evidence that men who
mistake rustling bushes for wild animals

wHEAr.-Mr Josh Conn residing on
he Albany prairie reports an average
reid OF 80 bushels per acre on his place.
which is certainly big one for this of
rear. About 81, 200 bushels have already
been stored with the Albany Farmers
company, noticeable for its superior
quality. The yield between Albany and
Corvallis is reported extra. A man who
las made the trip 10 Brownsville declares
he average to- be low in that direction.
L is reported that Mr.. Jas Dyer's wheat
will average 45 bushels per acre, and SIR
Barrett's over 80. OF course 1t is more
to note the big yields. II
would not be very satisfactory TO keep
rack of the small ones. Among the
favored sections is that around Wells,
and between Albany and that city. The
farm OF 400 acres in cultiva-
tion is credited with yield OF - bushels
per acre, and adjoining farms are all
ioing well. Take the yield altogether
and two-thirds OF crop is more apt 10
be a small than high estimate.

A CuTE CAsE.-There vas an exciting
race in Sodayille last week which had IL
not been witnessed BY an Lebanon Nd
vance reporter would never have been
given to the public. Ernest Case ahd
wife visited Sodaviile and while thee
lead or drove his horse across the side
walk. The marshai, ever on the alert for
of the town ordinances. ar
rested Mr. Case. Mr. Case whispered 10
his wife 10 get into the buggy and drive
outside OF the corporation and he would
make it appear that she was the guilty
party. Mr. Case was taken before the
recorder, laid the blame on his wife and
was discharged. Then began an exciting
race, Mr. Case alter the vehicle, urging
his wife beyond the corporate limits, the
bringing up the rear. The race
was continued until the fngitiyes were
safely over the line. Mr. Case and wife
drove ieisurely toward Lebanon and the
marshal retraced his steps, no doubt feel
ing that he had been outwitted.
FRox THE ALsgA Il w Deyoe and
family returned last evening from their
trip TO Aisea, leaving the remainder OF
the party, who viii probably reach Al
bany the first Of the next week. Mr.
Deyoe reports the finest summers outing
in his experience. They were camped
fourteen miles from the Pacific ocean
just at the head OF tide. on the Alsea. A
little steamer run by Capt Shepard, the
prince of good fellows, made regular trips
up and down the river, carrying passen-
gers for only so cents for the round trip,
besides doing everything in his poser to
make people comfortable. The party
killed six deer and caught trout in abun-
dance. and as well chinook Salmon as
heavy as fifty-three pounds. Mr. Deyoe
is quite enthusiastic over the A'sea as a
resort, and proposes 10 not allow year
to pass without trip there.
