Mrs. ITnrrfet McXsmara of S19 State Street, Triuidau, Colorado, while Tintiug iu St. Louis last mmmer. did not suiTer with" her usual rick headaches and iarilsestion.

Some of them have gone to their homes to spend the holi days but the majority will remain in Corvallis din ing the vacation. . College closed last Friday and will begin the next term on January 5, 1891. A car load of tile from F.

To this end God has given you helps, amongst which the Sunday School deserves special mention. The Church of Christ, meeting in Fisher's hall, will open such a school on the first Sunday in January, 1891, at 10 a m., and you are hereby most cordially reqested to put your children in its classes. Let us assure you, noth ing improjier shall enter into the mat ter, methods or management of this school. Send us your children and we will strive to make vou felicitous returns. J. H. Hughes. Corvallis. Oregon, Dec. 23, 1890. Raising Seeds. A gentleman who has had many years experience as assist ant experimental gardener for D. M. Ferry & Co., of Michigan, one of the largest firms dealing in seeds in the United States, writes to parties in Cor vallis asking for information with a view to coming here to go into the business of raising seeds. From information at hand the writer would advise the gen tleman to come by all means!"- There are only two seed farms, in Oregon that we know of, and with so little compe tition, the grade of soil to be found in Benton county, and our mild climate, we see no teason why a seed farm if properly managed would hot pay well here. Fourteen liobos were tiro- in at one haul by the marshal at Salem last Sat urday. A robbery was committed at Oregon City a few days prior, and the marshal of Salem instituted a search of box cars of the south-bound Southern Pacific freight train with the above result. Geo. Waggoner accompanied by his sod O. V. Wsgeoner, retained home Wedues- I day to fjieud the holidays. . CANNERY MATTERS. A special meeting of the board of trade was held Wednesdav evening for the purpose of dis cussing UwfeasibilUyofforming a slock company and raising means to build a cannery at Cor vallis. Mr. T. O. Scougall, of Ore. gon City, who has had fifteen years' experience in the canning business has been in the city look ing over the grounds with a view to taking some stock should the enterprise materialize, and was pressnt at the' meeting of the board last evening and gave his views as to the cost of building and operating a cannery capable of turning out 500 cases of canned goods per day, the number of hands required to run it during the canning season, the market for the goods, the prices that could be paid for fruit and vegetables, the acreage that would be required to supply such a cannery. There seemed to be a great deal of in terest taken in this enterprise and we hope ere another season rolls around to see a first-class cannery in full operation in Corvallis, as it would be of great benefit to this community, especially to the farm ers, who ought to subscribe liberal ly to such an enterprise. But those who take lead in this matter should be careful not to make a mistake by starting in on a small amount of capital, for a cannery on a small scale will not pay and will only be a detriment to the community. In order to build and operate a cannery as it should be through the first season it will require from $50,000 to $60,000 in ready cash. Of course it will not take near this sum to build a cannery; peruaps one-lourtn ot that amount would be enough for this purpose, but it takes the cash to buy cans, fruit, vegetables, pay employes, etc. But this is not a large sum when the benefits of such an establishment are con sidered, which have already been, discussed in the columns of the Gazette. The cannery should be built and in operation by next; season. Newport Motor Link. Dr. J, R. Bayley, of Newport, was in Corvallis Tuesday, having just re turned from Portland. The doc tor is largely interested in the Newport and Kings Valley rail road, lie says it is an assured fact that the road will be built. The engineers will arrive in New port and commence immediate operations on the line from that city to Cape Foulweather about the middle of January, 1891. John Stewart, son of Mrs. John Stewart, of this city, is down from Eastern Oregon on a visit to rela tives in this county. Mr. S. left Benton county a good many years ago and settled in Crook county, where he had the choice of a vast area of good land. The result is that "Lengthy," as he was called when a boy, is now among the solid men of the eastern country. W. A. Cleveland, Levi Long and J. M. Long, well-to-do gentle men were in Corvallis the first part of the week. They are traveling about Oregon with a view of determining upon a loca tion, and express themselves as being well pleased with this section of the state. On Monday Charley Wheele? and John Brumfield went outside the incorporation to decide an al tercation according to London prize ring rules. After a number of interesting rounds, the honors were awarded to the latter. ; 3
