Fine Fruit Prospects.

Emile Schanno, member of the
state board of horticulture, has re-
turned from tour through portions
of Gillian county, where he had been
on a tour of inspection of the orchards.
He found the fruit prospects on Rock
creek exceptionally good. and TIE
quality of fruit fully up to the standard.
The orchards are generally thrifty,
aud have no disease except scale in a
few orchards.
Mr.. Schanno says Rock creek valley
is one of the finest in Eastern Oregon.
1t is about twenty miles long, and con.
tains many fine farms. The soil is
very productive, and there is an
abundance of water for irrigating,
produces immense crops of alfalfa, the
meadows being cut twice every season.
Were there any facilities for transpor.
tation, he says it would become a great
fruit growing section.

R. G. Judson. industrial agent for
the o. r. & N. Co., is desirous of max
ing an exhibit of Oregon grains both
at Omaha and Portland. and requests
the farmers of Wasco county to supply

SLEEP AND DREAMS.

How Agassiz Worked Out a Scientific
Problem as Related by Himself.
The letters ON sleep and dreams in
The Spectator remind me of a case in
the experience of Agassiz, and which
he told me himself, though it is record
ed in his work on the American fishes.
He was studying a fossil fish in the
Jardin DIES Plantes, but had never been
able to determine the species to his sat
isfaction. After time he dreamed that
he caught the very fish and without diff
ficulty determined the question, think
ing, as he woke from the dream, that
he would have no difficulty. But on
returning to the fossil something in the
dream had escaped him, and he could
no more determine the species than be-
fore.
The next night he had the same dream
and again forgot the essential point.
He then determined to take pencil and
paper with him to bed and make his
note as soon as he woke. The dream
came the third time, but to his surprise
on fully awakening he found the draw
ing made and lying on the table bed side,
with three bones displayed in it which
were not visible in the fossil, and which
solved the problem. On returning to the
Jardin des Plantes he obtained permits
sion of his friend, the director, to chip
away scale of stone which lay on the
spot where the bones were in the draw
ing, and found them there as his draw
ing had given them. 1t is 80 years since
Agassiz told me the incident, but those
who have access to his history of the
North American fishes will be able to
read it in his own words in the intro
duction and correct my version if my
memory has in any detail failed me.

Cost of the Civil War.

The New York journal of Commerce
has published an article showing the
enormous expense of the civil war. In
the four years of the war the direct ex-
penditure of the National Government
amounted to about SO, 100000, of
which 81, 920, 000,0 900 should be charged
to the war. OF this amount $3.50. 900, 000
was raised by taxation, while 81 100000
600 was obtained by issuing greenbacks
and bonds. The interest on the war
debt during and since the war to July /,
1897, amounts to $2,664, 000, 900; pensions
since the war So, 1877 900, 900, making the
total cost of the war to the end of the
last financial year $7,7ll, 100000. Much
of this expense is continuing, and If we
are to believe recent statement of the
Commissioners Of Pensions, the pension
part of the expenditure is to be increas-
ed. The country is now paying in pen
sions and interest money on account of
the civil war about $3,500,000 every
week. The Journal of Commerce esti-
mates that by the time all the liabilities
are settled, the money cost of the late
war will have amounted to no less than
$l2, 900, 900 900, sum equal to the entire
assessed valuation of all the property in
the United States at the beginning of
the conflict.
