Portland, Nov. 2S-The substantial
condition Of the Pacific northwest is
illustrated in a most convincing way
by the wheat and flour shipments of
Columbia river and Puget sound
ports. For the 10 months beginning
January and ending October 81,
there were exported from Portland
and Puget sound ports (including Sc
attic. Tacoma and other points,, a
total of S,S93,4SO bushels of wheat,
and a total of 3,561,726 barrels OF
flour. The exact figures are:
Portland--5,SsO.O5O bushels wheat:
1,16S,S SS6 barrels of flour.
Sea tile, Tacoma and other Sound
ports-S,513,430 bushels wheat; g.
Se2.S40 barrels of flour.
The heavy movement of grain for
the tremendous crop Of the present
year has been temporarily delayed
by the financial situation, but is now
on, and the months of November and
December will make the record ship
ments of all history. There are 23
vessels In Portland harbor at this
time. including steamers and sailing
craft, and their principal cargo will
be grain and flour.
The equipment in Puget sound
ports is similar to that here. A few
months must Of necessity make the
financial situation in this part of the
United States better than it ever has
ever been before and in the face of
figures such as those it is impossible
for any one to present a substantial
reason for continuance of the pres
ent Inconvenience as to actual cash.
The output of lumber from the
sawmills and shingle mills, as well
as the products of box and furniture
factories, and all industries using ma
tive woods has been greater the pres
ent year than ever before, and the
cash for this is constantly coming in.
The livestock industry has had a
good year, the wool clip has been
enormous. while fruit in 1907 has
added to the wealth of Oregon andl
Washington at least 80 per cent
more than during prosperous 1906.
No figures are available on the dairy
products of Washington. but Oregon
has jumped from nothing 10 years
ago TO s5000,00O five years ago, and
s1I000OO0 during 1907 The pro-
gress in irrigation has never been so
marked as during the 10 months just

vate projects.

the farmers of what a crop they had
and of the good prices they received:
the merchants of the big business
that should ensue during the year.
while another subject of even great
er moment has been the football

Federal Quarantine service Search
ing for Best General Purpose
Sheep.
Aside from their regular inspection
work the men of the federal quaran-
tine service are now gathering infor-
nation from the sheepmen as to the
advantages of the different breeds of
sheep,
1t is the desire of the bureau of
animal industry to ascertain the most
desirable breed for the ranges of the
western states. What is wanted is
the best general purpose sheep, one
that will be sufficiently hard for the
range, produce a good wool clip and
be good for mutton purposes.
At the Wyoming experiment sta
ton the bureau now has a band Of
Rambbouillets which are being used
for experiment purposes. There are
$50 ewes in the band and four rams,
the latter being from the finest
bands in the United States.
It Is to learn the effects of cross
breeding that the sheepmen are be-
ing questioned by the department, or
II is hoped by careful crossing to ul-
timately produce sheep that will fur
ly meet the requirements of the diff
ferent sections Of the west.

Restoring Old Orchards.

George T. Frost's orchard is one
that is in process of restoration. Mr.
Frost is a pioneer of 1852, says the
Sclo News. His orchard was put in
in 1857. For a nupbS of years it
produced - good fruit as can be
grown in either Hood River or Rogue
River valleys. He, like every one
else, because of the lack of market
for apples, allowed his orchard to de-
teriorate so that what few apples
were grown were fit only for hog
feed. Three years ago Mr.. Frost
commenced putting his fruit trees in
condition Now they are growing
fruit equal to the best that we have
seen that came from Hood River.
His Bellflowers and Baldwins are
simply perfect. We know, for he
sent us a sample. What he has ac-
complished with his old orchard can
be accomplished with nearly all of
our old orchards.

TARGETS FOR NATIONAL GUARD
State Printer Completes Fifty Thou
sand on Sulphite Paper.

Fifty thousand targets for the use
of the National Guard of oregon have
just been completed by State Printer
Willis S. Dunniway. These targets
are printed on such scale of size
that when shot at from distance of
80 feet as much marksmenship is re-
quired to hit them as would be re-
quired to hit the ordinary targets at
a distance of from 100 to 1000 yards
says the Salem Statesman.
The paper of which these targets
are made Is known as '"sulphite,
soft variety of wrapping paper,
whose peculiar advantage is that it
retains its shape and the markings of
the target are not all obliterated
when punctured by bullets. These
were last evening shipped to Adju-
tant General Finer in Portland, who
will distribute them among the COM
panies of the oregon National Guard
and 1t is understood target practice
will begin at once after their receipt
at the various armories

New York, Nov. 2S.-If any New

Thanksgiving spirit it was not be-
cause of his lack of opportunity to
get into touch with one or more
celebrations. Religious services were
held at all the churches and deeds
of charity had their usual prominent
place in the routine of events.
The Salvation Army, the Volun-

of the city were well provided for.

ture typical of Thanksgiving day in
the metropolis, was carried out on

His Liruitations.

A statistician has figured that Mr.
 Rockefeller is drawing $1s a minute from his Standard oil holdings which causes The Ottawa Herald to moralize:
 "Mr. Rockefeller can wear but one suit of clothes at a time. and the man who invests s30 or $40 judioiously can dress as well as he. He can eat but one meal at time-leaving out Of con sideration the common understanding that he can't even eat that. He can live in but one house at time. and the things which money will buy for that houso are limited. But more inn portant than all is the fact that with his S1s a minute Mir. Rockefeller gets no more of the sunshine these crisp au- turnn days than the man to whom $19 is a months salary. He secures no more sincere friendships. and loses his days trouble in no more restiui sleep
