Lust night lu tiio production of their celebrated melo-drama, the Boston Comedy Company, in every character, appeared to better advan tage than at any previous perfor mance.

Mrs. Emina Malloy arilved in this city at noon and will conduct revival series at the M. K. church at 7 p. in. to-morrow. This lady Is a most stiseessful re vivalist, having made many con versions wlieivverslie has appeared. At Dinigoness, YV. T., the reMilt or iter two weeks' work was sixty con versions and at Port Twnsoiid, eighty. She will work with us for some days. There was a marked increase In tho attendance at the Farmers' In stitute at both afternoon and even ing session yesterday. In the afternoon M. Wilklns read a paper on "Combing "Wool," which was well received. Ho gave a gen eral talk on wool and seemed to know more ubout that articlo than all the politicians combined. If half he said is true, Salem ought not to slumber till sho has a wool combing establishment. Fashion determines what kind of wool brings the highest price. "Success With Strawberries," was the subject of a good paper read by A. F. Davidson, who has grown a hundred varieties. It was both poetical and true. Hon. Thomas Puulscn of Garden Home read a well prepared paper on tho subject of "Dairying" which contained many good points. W. H. Goudy gave a volunteer talk on tho "Profits of Raising Chickens." It contained many good facts which our farmers and others would do well to give serious consideration. He had one hun dred and twenty-six hens that de posited seventy-six eggs during the year, nettiiiff $1.60 each, a total of $180. That there Is a profit In this is apparent when we consider that to-day eggs are 35 cents per dozen. Prof. W. W. Bristow talked lone and well about bees. From his re marks it is learned that the queen does no governing. Her only busi ness is to lay eggs and sting to death all rival queens or leave the hive, followed by so many work men as choose to go. Sho makes bridal tours in the air with the drones. Unfeeundated eggs will hatch drones only, while others hatch workers, which can be changed to queens by feed ing Royal Jelly and enlarging the cell. "Workers commence cleaning the hive when two or three hours old and go out when llfteen days old, gather half a teaspoon ful of honey on an average and dio in ninety days. Tho workers gather honey, take a sack full along when swarming and exude tho comb, will not stop work so long as they have a queen or eggs that can bo changed to one or lame notmoro than three days old. Italians are the best honey gatherers, best watchers about tho hive and less ugly. "Prune Culture, " by Mr. Clark should bo read by all orchardlsts. Hill land abovo frost and below frosts is best. Ground should be looso and deep, absorbing NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES. wm.au .. ATTT1T11T I 1T1TT1 1 f - -, iffl MM AUDITI Breezy Corrcsponpence From the Towns Around Us. MARIOS 3IARKS.

Mrs. Clark gave a pleasing paper on tho "Farmers' Home." She had the good sense to admit that tho es sential features of all homes should bo tho same, that ditlereut circum stances demand and pennit di.Ter ent dwellings and appointments, but tho farmers' ehildion livinj nearest to nature, should bo trained to self reliance and to go out into tho high places to which the world is constantly calling them, and honor the old home of father and mother though tho house wero of loj;s. Judge Boise gave some much need ed advice on meeting organization with organization. Until tho farm el's v:to to bo tho foot-ball of other organizations they will luck dignity, bolf-respect and protection.

In his annual report to tho board of immigration tho secretary says never, in the history of the board, havo the indications for future im migration been more flattering than at present. Numerous letters receiv ed contaiu statements to the efiect that many families, neighbors of the writers, are preparing to remove to Oiegon. This characteristic is es pecially true of the correspondence irom Kansas. It would seem, to judge from the expressions contain ed in the correspondence and state ments of new urrivials, that the majority of cltizeiH of Kansas aio le.uly or preparing to remove to Oregon. There is a roiu-on for this uuiistRiI spiiit of iimvbt, of course, and it is found in the fact that there has been in Kansas a successive failure of crops for the past three years. -- .
