dropped into the well Of Mr.. David Englar, of

Some gravel fell and he asked the man at

at him. The gravel, however, continued to
fall and Mr.. Englar scrambled up the wall as
fast as he could. just as he reached the sur
face the interior of the well caved in. The
earth and stones would have buried him but
for his quickness in getting out. His escape
was a very narrow one.

WEATHER.
Fine Weather for Harvesting Through
out the Entire State
Crops of all Kinds are Returning GOOD
Yields.

The following is the weather crop bulle-
tin for the week ending August 20:
Western Washiueton-Thi has been
week of continued sunshine and
warmth in all counties. The tempera-
lures were slightly higher than the pre-
ceding week, the highest this week hay
ing ranged between IS and 81 degrees,
while the lowest were between 80 and 5S
degrees. Save one or two insignificant
showers on the immediate coast region,
the week has been rainless. For har-
vesting the weather has simply been
ideal. The dryness and warmth have
FASTENED the ripening OF grain and small
fruit. The almost total absence OF good
rains since the first week in July is be-
ginning to tell in some sections on gar
dens. The wheat and oat fields show
great improvement over last week. In
some portions Of Wahkakum county,
the o8t crop is all harvested at this writ
ing, and was good crop. Burning of
brush and cleaning OF Ianl is now the
order OF the day in many sections.
Around WinIock Lewis county, grain is
being stacked and harvest is nearly over.
The second crop OF clover near Browns
vile, kitsap county, was rather light
owing to lack Of rain since the crop was
cut. The hop outlook remains about the
same as last week. The weather was
propitious, though. plums and early
apples are nov coming in at Kent, King
county. The yield has been fair and
the quality good. Near Everett the
plum crop will be immense. Take it all
and all, the week has been an unusually
good one for the farmers.
/ Eastern Washington--A week OF
steady hot and dry weather has just
closed in this part OF Washington.. The
/ highest Temperatures were aaifoinily in
the nneties, having ranged between 80
and 9S degrees. The temperatures in
the northeastern portion OF the state
were considerably higher than last week.
/ The nights were a little warmer, the
the lowest temperatures ranging between
81 and 68 degrees. 4 mere sprinkle ol
rain fell at ~pokane on the 18th. Tu~t
was all the rain Eastern Washington re-
ceived during the past seven days.
While little rain would help garden
truck in some sections and in parts OF
/ Illickitat county would save the corn
