CHICAGO MARKETS.

CHICAGO, ILL, June 3-Wheat-Wheat opened
weak on account of the heavy rains in the West
and Northwest yesterday and last night. The
spring wheat crop thus received a sufficient mos-
ture for all present purposes, and the corn and
oats crops, where the rain soakad them, got timely
relief. The benefit thus conferred was made the
most Of by those who wish to a good steady re-
action in the price of wheat. Many of those who
are belle vers in ultimately higher prices for wheat
but who had sold out from time to time on the
bulges were quite anxious as the pronounced
bears 10 see a drop in prices.
Two rather strong parties were thus arrayed
against the stayers among the bulls and when the
signal service report was issued and named the
probability of thunder-storms for Illinois, Indiana
and lower Michigan tomorrow the market which
for half an hour had been giving SYMPTOMS of
weakness, became decidedly heavy and the price
had severe tumble.
E. NJ. Thoman's crop report was issued TODAY.
It's sgnincant features are the decrease of 1,000-
600 acres in the of winter wheat and of 700 600
acres IN that of spring. and the great deterioration
in the condition of winter wheat compared with
that of year ago.
He says: Should present conditions in soil and
climate be maintained for ten days longer, practi-
cal failure would result, where half crop is now
promised. Practical failure of extensive areas in
Indiana, Illinois, Ohio and Michigan has already
occurred. and the devastation in those States ia
still in progress, abundance OF testimony to thar
enect being to-day added to what was previously
known about it.
The most OF the crop report, which covers the
condition to a still later date than Thoman's makes
the reduction in condition for the month, rs, as
against Thoman's 5 points reduction for the same
were everywhere and buyers hard to find. The
range was from 1850 down to 7S34c for July,
with September at about s4c or &c premium It
fell TO 7S14c at once, recovered to 7s$4c and then
the rain predictions and other matters already re-
ferred TO remained in force until the price was
down at 1850, at which point the Missouri State
report was made public and the recovery in the
closing figure of 1880 begun.
Corn opened July at from 521ac to 521Ac as
against 525sc Saturday. 1t reacted to 503l c as
the bottom of the decline and recovered to ii INc
at the close declining s4c for the day. Receipts
60l cars.
Oats were fairly active and showed a decline at
the close of Use on June and July, 15c on Septem-
Der and lac on May. AT the close pork showed no
change in the price for September and 71ac higher
for July. Lard declined sc for July and 21,ac for
September and ribs 212c for both deliveries

A recent article from one OF yopr cor-
respondents indicates that the so-calaJ
Chinese lettuce is not very we'll pndor-
stood 10y the Palouse farmers. This weaA
is the prickly lettuce Of the east and
during the last 10 years has spread al,
over the states along the northern boun.
dairy OF the United States. 1t seems 20
be a serious pest only in few nlacas
and the Palouse and Walla Walla conn
tries are included in these. It is renor,-
ed to be quite serious in fall-sown grain
Ordinarily it grows only in waste places
The only remedy for it is to prevent !,
from going to seed. The way to do tb;s
with least effort is to cut it down inst "a
it begins to bloom. 1t is necessary 70
cut it two or three times in a season as
the stubs throw out branches which
blossom in few weeks.
Contrary to the general belief. this
weed is an excellent green fodder for
milCh COWS. They will eat it in prefer
ence to almost anything else. 1t has no
| deleterious influences on the milk
Were it not for the fact that the seeds
were scattered everywhere by the winds
it would be one o. our most valuable for
age plants for summer feeding. This
characteristic, however, renders it nox-
ious weed, and the effort to eradicate it

Death Of Mrs. G. IL. Watt.
| Yakima Herald.


Among the older residents Of Yakima
especially, has the news of the death ol
Mrs. George H. Watt, on Tuesday, July
23d, caused profound sorrow and regret.
Her kindness OF heart, charitable views
and acts, and steadfast devotion to par
ents, husband and friends, caused her to
be held in the highest esteem by all who
knew her. Although in poor health for
some time past, owing to wasting away
OF blood corpuscles, no immediate fear
was entertained until day or two be-
fore her death, when complications arose
and bodily dissolution was very rapid,
death taking place at ten o'clock Tues
day evening; pernicious anaemia being
the cause ascribed by the attending ply
sicians.
Mr.. and Mrs. j. P. Mattoon, the par
ents Of Mrs. Watt, removed to Yakima
from Clackamas county, Ore, thirty
one years ago-when the deceased, then
little Annie Mattoon, was but four years
OF age. They settled in the Parker Bot
tom district, where they lived for a num-
Der OF years and then moved to Yakima
City. Here Miss Mattoon, who was a
very apt scholar and great reader COM
pleted her education. She readily passed
the necessary examination, and was soon
given the position of teacher OF district
school, which avocation she followed for
many years and with great success. Her
services were in ready demand, and she
taught in the schools of Parker Bottom,
Natcheez, Wenas, Kittitas, Yakima City,
and for several terms in the schools Of
North Yakima.
In June, 1898, Miss Mattoon was mar
ried to George H. Watt, teacher in the
public schools who was subsequently
made a member of the faculty OF the
state agricultural college, at Pullman,
where Mr.. and Mrs. Watt went to abide,
although they always looked upon Yak
ina as their home and spent the vaca-
tions here. They arrived from Pullman
on the Sd of the month and were njoy-
ing the days with relatives and friends
when death stepped in to strike the blow
that has brought grief to those most near
and dear and has saddened the entire
community. Had the deceased lived un-
til the 4th of October she would have
been 36 years OF age.
The funeral services, which were con-
Quoted by Rev. Cheadle, at the residence
of j. P. Mattoon, this morning, were OF
an impressive and affecting character.
A large number of the friends of the de-
ceased were present, and the sorrow and
sympathy displayed for the bereaved
family were OF most sincere nature.

Whereas, God in his all-wise ana
mercilul providence has removed by

WHITMAN COUNTY FRUIT AND AGRICULTURAL
FAIR.

Work on the fair grounds to put the
place in good order is under way, the
grand stand thoroughly cleaned out, the
booths fixed up and a great many OF the
stock stalls cleaned out. The accommo-
dation for both people and animals Is
being looked after, and every effort will
be made to make the fair success in
every particular.
From letters received by Secretary
Beebe from all parts OF the county indl-
cate that the people of Whitman county
are anxious for fair, and the writers
state that they will do all they can in the
interest of the project. In fact everyone
who is at all interested in our home af-
fairs seems to be enthusiastic.
There will be premiums for all kinds
of blooded, graded and domestic stock
all kinds OF fruits, grasses, grains, dairy
products; in fact premiums for every
thing that can be produced from the soil
or is manufactured in Whitman county.
There Will be horse racing, Dlcycle
racing and foot racing prizes for band
contest. The Colfa> military band kind
ly refuses to enter the contest in order to
encourage the bands from the neighbor-
ing towns to compete.
The people OF Colfax are working hard
to make the fair Success, and the fact
that the price OF admission is placed at
the low figure of twenty-five ceuts for
one day, fifty cents for season ticket, and
one dollar for family ticket for one day,
is ample proof that this is not money
making scheme. All that the promoters
Of the fair care for is enough to pay ex-
penses, and the expense OF taking the
exhibits to the Spokane fair.
