OREGON CROPS.

Conditions Improve as the Season Ad-
vances and Warm Weather Prevails.
The bulletin issued from the Port
land bureau on June 10Th is ancour-
aging, and shows an improvement of
grain crops throughout the state. 1t
lie as follows:
5 - WESTERN OREGON.
- The change to warm. dry weather
has been of great benefit to vegetation.
The coil is in prime condition and
rapid growth in all crops prevails.
Fall-sown wheat is heading and
spring sown grain is growing rapidly
Glover is ready to cut and haying is
general. The reports indicate that the
hay crop will be the best that has
been cut for many years. Hops are
making rapid growth. Spraying has
commanced in yards of the better
class. Garden produce is making
rapid growth. Early potatoes are in
bloom and late-planted potatoes have
tops above the ground. Corn is maxi
ing good growth.
The fruit prospects are good in
Jackson, Josephine and Curry coun-
ties, fair in Douglas and Coos, and
poor in the Willamette valley and in
Lincoln, Tillamook and Clatsop coun-
ties. In the poor districts few prunes
remain on the trees. Bartlett pear
trees are nearly bare. Peaches are
scare. Cherries continue to drop.
Some varieties of apples viii. be full
crop, others poor one. Peach trees
in Jackson and Josephine counties are
so full of fruit that hand pruning will
be necessary to prevent trees from
breaking.
EASTERN OREGON.
The warmer weather has caused all
vegetation to make a rapid growth.
Fall-sown wheat is in first class con-
dition and is heading ia all sections.
Spring.sown wheat is much better and
more promising than usual. A large
crop will be yielded if there are no hot
northeast winds. Barley, rye and oats
are fully as good as wheat. Haying
has commenced and reports indicate
that it will be heavy crop. Grass is
making good growth on the ranges
aud stock is reported to be in good
condition.
The warm weather caused straw
berries to ripen rapidly; Hood River
shipped five carloads on Friday last.
The strawberry crop is very good.
The fruit prospects are no better than
have been heretofore reported.
Peaches are about an average crop
in the Columbia and Snake river val
leys. Apple trees are being sprayed
and a fair crop is expected. The
cherry crop will be, good; cherries are
lipe in the valley and are being
shipped to market. Prunes have
ceased dropping; the crop is already,
greatly reduced. but it will not bea
failure.

BADLY Mixed Up.
In an Ohio county a man named
Miller married widow who had q
grown.uB-daughter- His fatherfell in
love with the daughter. The father
became the sons son.in-law and the
steS.daughter became his mother.
Recently the sons wife had child.
The child was Miller's fathers brother
in-law and Miiler's own uncle, for he
was brother of his step.daughter.
Miller's fathers wife-his step-mother
also had a son. who was, of course,
Miller's brother and incidently Mil
ler's grandchild, for he was the son of
Miller's daughter.
Thus Miller's own wife was his
mothers mother and Miller became
his wlfe's grandchild at the same
| time. And then. to top the whole
thing off, as the husband OF his grand
mother he was his own grandfather.

Florencs Dramatic Club Will Aid
Fund.

Although the plans for the new Zion
Evangelical Lutheran Church OF Green
vile. which is to be erected on McAdo
avenue and the Boulevard, this spring,
have not vet been consummated, not the
slightest doubt remains but that the pro-
iect will be successfully carried out. Rev.
William Sanft, the pastor, is highly elated
with the showing made last year, declar-
ing that it was the most successful in the
history of the church. It is owing to the
Increase in the congregation that a meet
ing was held at which matters in regard
to a more suitable house of worship were
discussed.
The property on which the new build
ing will be erected was purchased some
time ago. and the church is totally clear
of debt. Besides this, there is over $4,000
in the bank which can be drawn at any
time. This sum will be used for. the new
building.
In order to raise more funds for build
ing purposes, the members of the Florence
Dramatic Society have consented to pro-
duce a comedy. The date will be decided
later, but 1t is thought 1t will be given In
May. The piece to be produced Is en-
titled Three Hats" The cast will be
composed of the following:-Samuel

SUDDENLY STRICKEN.
When Timely Aid at tho Right
Time Might Have Saved the Life.

Scarcely a day passes that n does
not hear of men and women, known
as pictures of health and strength,
stricken down by that dreaded disease,
pneumonia. There are various causes of
pneumonia, but in whatever form it may
come, it is terrible. If you " a tick
ling in the throat, a tightness in the
chest. a pain in the head, a chilly feel
ing, or pains throughout the body, act
promptly, act ~wisely-bring about an i'm
mediate reaction. Take at once a pure
medicinal stimulant which will tend to
equalize the circulation, check congestion
and restore health.
There is but one that can be recon-
mended. That is Duffy's Pure Malt Whis-
key. This is the only medicinal whiskey
upon the market, is SO acknowledged by
the Government and its purity and
power is proven by its popularity. 1t
has saved the lives of more men and
women who were candidates for pneu-
monia, than any discovery Of modern
science. Don't confound it with ordinary
whiskey, which has no medicinal value.
