The wheat Trade.

Now that wool is drug in the market
at any price interest will from now on
center in the price that wheat is to
bring the present season. There is no
rift in the clouds at present. There Is
nothing doing whatever and nothing is
likely to be done for a long time yet.
Millers are the only buyers and this is
done sparingly. Interest now centers
in the news from the harvest fields. Re-
ports of, crop damage are conflicting
from the excessive heat of the past fort
night; some points estimate the dam
age done at about 40 per cent, while at
other points the claim is only 10 per
cent. The question of price is very
uncertain one.
Says the Commercial Review: Pres
ent indications are decidedly in favor of
a lower range of values than is quoted
at present, but month will elapse be-
fore wheat will be moving with any
thing approaching freedom and many
changes are liable to occur to alter the

server.

Only four horses were bought by Mr..
Frazier up till noon for the use of the
army. Mr.. Frazier says the most of the
horses shown are too heavy. An ideal
weight is 1000 or 1850. Other horses
again are shut out because of their color.
A beautiful horse, with nice, clean
limbs, trim body, graceful neck and
small shapeiy head was refused this
morning because he was too dark in
color. The horse must be bay. a sor-
rel or gray. Another horse was re-
fused because, while perfect in all other
respects, his launches were too high,
giving him a sWay-back appearance.
Between fifty and eeventy-five horses
have been brought SO far and offered for
sale. Mr.. Frazier says that he has Sc
cured only forty eight horses in Walla
Walla, Pendleton and The Dalles, and
will go to the Grande Ronde country, as
he must procure about twenty more.
He will leave The Dalles tonight.

TEACHERS INSTITUTE.
The Discussion This Afternoon Turned
Upon Books.

The question for discussion this after
noon at the institute was: What shall
the primary teacher read? The teacher
of mixed school? Miss Rintoul led the
discussion with an admirable paper, in
which she recommended professional
work principally. Mr.. Gavin spoke
very entertainingly on the subject. He
said one should read that which had a
good effect, and leaves one in a thought
full mood He regarded too much
newspaper reading as deleterioue, and
emphasized the point by specific
mention of the Oregonian, which was
filled with so much of all kinds of mat
\haustion if all were read He did not
think one-sixth, or at most one-third,
should be read. He had read so much
he got go he could pick his books with
tolerable certainty as to what was best
to read. He thought the Chautauqua or
any regular course of reading, excellent
Mr.. Gourlay was present and spoke
upon this theme. He recommended the
reading of some good current magazines,
suggesting the "Review of Reviews"
the ''North American Review" etc.
After the discussion teachers were
asked to write the names of books they
have read and would recommend. A
large list was the result, from which we
extract the following: "Boys of 49,"
Irving's "Washington" and ''Colum-
bus,'' ''Helen's Babies" 'tUncle Tom g
Cabin, Robinson Crusoe," "Gulliver's
Travels" Little Women" "Black
Beauty" Beautiful Joe," and poems
as follows: Constitution and Guer-
riere, ';Old Ironsides," Gray's "Elegv,"
etc.

Worms for Bait.

From the New York sun.
Some fishermen don't like to dig
worms for bait. In the first place, it
makes their backs ache, and, again, it
takes tinc. There is also difficulty in
finding where the worms are, especi-
ally i'll dry seasons, when the worms
bore deep for moist earth, which they
must lave to live. On the other
hand, if the earth is so wet that one
Il squeeze water out of it, the
worms drown. They prefer rich soil,
about the mouths Of drains, places
where the chips of wood have rotted,
in b%arnyards about the ~outhouses, and
they may he found under planks and
logs.
There are a variety of ways of get
ting them. A small boy will get a
canful for a quarter usually, but some
times n has to fall back on his OWL
resources. Some men, who know q
wrinkle or so, 90 around with a Ian.
tern on favorable evenings-warm and
slightly rainy weather is best-and
find the worms crawling in the worn
or barren places, or among the grass
blades.
A man once told about another mar
who went to a favorable place at NIGH
and by lightly tapping the ground
drove the worms from their holes. HI
was led to do this by the curious &C
| tions of a woodcock he saw one warn
spring evening. The bird, he said,
would hop up and down for a minute
or so, then stop, and turn his head II
n side, apparently listening. TheI
he would strike his bill in the ground
The jar of the birds dancing, tn,

and drove them to the surface, or nea,

ring really does drive worms up, an,
so perhaps the woodcock was gettinl

The New Woman tells. us that the
present century is her own and, in

that even the Infinite Father does not
escape her jealousy, for she has discov-
cred that we should pray to a "Heav-

Father. She informs us that the Pill
grim Fathers are no more, and adds,
