NEW ADVERTISEMENTS
THOSE RESOLUTIONS

Troubling you? Well by Wednesday
YOU will have forgotten all about
them except perhaps the one re-
lating to economy. To help you
keep this one resolve we will
start you right and there our respon-
bility ends. Economy is simply
buying the best at the lowest price,
Our stock always the best obtainable
is being sacrificed at present. Not
because of its condition, that
perfect, but because spring AM
new materials are looming up in the
distance and the old goods must g
that the new may come. As soo1
as we get our goods marked for tn,
Annual Clearance Sale we'll let yol
know. Wait for us and save money.
Here are few bargains to keep yo
from getting impatient.

THURSDAY

THE CRops. Following is ths crop
bulletin of the Oregon state Weather
service for the week ending Tuesday,
May 10, 1894. s NJ Blandford, observer,
weather bureau. The reports which
have been received this week present
many complaints. Fruit growers in the
willamette Valley and coast counties
note the past week as the most unfavor-
able of the season. The fros. which
occurred on the morning Of the ninth is
commented upon as one which seriously
injured some fruits in each section.
Cherries, p.ums, peaches and strawber-
ries have evidently been injured. To
what extent is difficult to determine.
Some hops are also hurt by the frost, as
were early potatoes and tender garden
plants. In Benton county tender foliage
OH forest trees was damaged. The pre-
ponderance of opinion is that the fruit
crop has been injured to an unknown
extent. Some cherries had received
half their growth: it is believed that
they escaped injury, Late blooming
fruit trees, such as apples, ounces, etc,
also escaped the evil influences of the
frost. Fall sown wheat is making a
rapid growth. Spring sown grain looks
sickly; without warmer weather it will
mature light crop. The hay crop will
be large.

OREGON MIRAGEs. Writing from
Butteville under date of May 18th, Hon
Joel P Geer gives the following which is
of great interest insomuch as it had not
beer generally supposed there were any
mirages in this vicinage:
ii was very much interested in read
ing the article in Sundays Statesma n, ,
about the mirage in Colorado. have
seen these delusive lakes in the harvest
fields OF California, but think there are
very few who know that such things are
sometimes seen in the Willamette valley.
l have seen it several times in going out
from Albany, going east from the north
ern part OF town. Also a week ago | saw
one that was beautiful on Howell prairie,
though on a limited scale. l was sur
prised, too, as the day was not hot, and
l had supposed that such phenomena
was only to be seen in the hottest
weather. The one saw then was very
plain, and very deceptive, shadows OF
COWS being seen plainly in it, Had | not
known the place well, should have had
no doubt bu. it was water pure and
simple, but as have drove right through
the lake, and there was no water ! was
sure of what l saw-or what | did not
see."
Once from an upper story in Powers
Block, Rochester, \ Y, the Man about
Town saw the Canadian shore, though
far out of sight, outlined in inGescribahle
splendor by the power OF the mirage.
