THE CONDITION
OF THE CROPS
Indicate That the Best Yield Ever Known
in the Northwest Will be Seen This
Fall---A Few Facts Regarding the
Actual Conditions.

Crop conditions over the entire
Northwest continue to be the
very best and every day hastens
up toward that time the farmers
have dreamed about for three
years, when their graneries could
be full as we'll as their pocket
books. No hail storms have
done damage yet and we serious
ly hope that they will not do SO.
Even in that case, only strips Of
country would receive damage.
Hot winds will hardly put in
their appearance on account Of
the great amount OF moisture
which is in the ground. Oats,
wheat, barley, rye and other
grains are heading quite gener-
ally and the growth OF the straw
is almost rank, tho all stands
we'll. Flax is heading and shows
a big yield, perhaps 20 bushels
to the acre where it was put in
right. Hay is excellent. The
sloughs are still covered with
water, but hay is good on the
uplands. The slough hay will
be cut later in the season. Many

acres Of bromus were sown. Nick
Clouse, up the river, raised
bromus this year over five feet
tall. A sample may be seen in
Major Murphy's office in this
city. Small fruits are excellent.
Strawberries, where they have
been protected from the severe
winter, are excellent and are now
yielding fruit. Frank Liha sent
to the Independent office a box
Of the berries, one stalk having
nearly SO on. Many Of them
were ripe. Some were three in
in circumfel ence and the flavor
the best we have ever tasted.
Mr.. Linha picks twoquarts daily
from his small patch Of $50
plants.
Corn looks we'll. Several have
in ten acres each, which stands
knee high. 1t has an excellent
color.
John Reed reports having II
acres OF potatoes in addition to
his 100 acres Of small grains.
Thousands OF acres OF potatoes
have been planted and no doubt
will be shipDed east.

disease. Under the regulations,
if any Of the animals of a head
show the existence Of disease all
animals in the head are deemed

to be dipped in disinfectants.
Secretary Wilson has taken the
appeal of the shippers under
consideration.

And the picture of girl;
And perhaps q tale that tinsles with

And the picture of a girl.
