Obiook-CIrow Tobacco It has
been clearly demonstrated that tobacco
can be raised In Oregon, notwithstand
ing cool nights. In several sections
of the stale persons have grown the
weed for their private use. In tome
of tbe gardens of Columbia county,
tobacco has proved a successful crop
being more generally raised in the Her
halem countr. By connoisseurs,
cigars made of Oregon tobaoco are pro"
nounoed the equal of those manufao'
tured from the eastern product.
A BriSY Scrnb The Bortbwick
mill at Mooresville is In operation. Tbe
writer viiled the plant last Saturday
and found things humming. Mr.
Bortbwick superintends the work in
parson, and ia alro the head sawyer.
Without hie knowledge the writer
timed him while sawing a log which
scaled 1000 feet, and it occupied Jual
eight minutes in reducing it to lumber
ready for the market. From the mill
the lumber is flumed three miles to
the Columbia river, where it is loaded
on scows and towed to market. There
wae a scow loaded there Saturday for
A.torle.
Mow tv From Hoos Out In Eastern
Washington during the past two weeks,
aays the Dayton Courier, about 6000
1st hogs have been purchased by buy
ere from Portland, the Bound and the
East, and the demand atill continues at
from 3 to 3 cents. There was shipped
from Colfax on Friday laat a tralnload
of 13 cars of bogs for Chicago. Three
care were loaded at Dayton, two at
Btarbuck, one at Emticott and the rest
in the Pahue country. This industry
is becoming of great importance to
Eastern Washington. It is stated that
no less than f 15,000 bava been put in
circulation In the oountiea of Whitman,
Columbia, Gartlnld and Asotin dnring
the past month from the aale of hogs.
Am AovBRTtBtMO Car. Both the
Northern l'aolflo and the Union Pacific
railroad companies have offered to fur
nish cars free of charge tor the pro
posed movement to tend an advertis
ing car esst from Oregon. Transpor
tation will also be furnished free by
the railroad companies. Major Weed,
who ia now traveling throughout Ore
gon in tbe interest of the proposed car,
aays be has received considerable en
couragement at valley towns where he
baa stopped. The heaviest expense
will be in collecting together tha ex
hibits and employing men to go wnn
the car. Oregon will have an abun
dant crop thia year and ought to be
abla to send a fine collection of pro
ducts to tbe east this fall if this move
ment is oarried out.
Postmistress Twrrty Ybars. Miss
Mary Brown, of Hillsboro, will have
bean postmistress at that place for
tweenty years next October. During
this time she baa watched the office
grow from a little county post to a
city office, with a mail four times a
day. When aha Brat took tha position
tha paraphernalia could have been
moved iu a picnio lunob basket, while
the office Is now a salaried one, and at
fine at any on the weat side. , During
all her continuous service she ever has
been considerate of the public, and so
well had she pleased the general pub
lio that when the admiuistration went
democratic there was no chance. To
her oredit It may taid she has not at
all been partisan, having never voted
the republican ticket, and it wat that
party that gave her the office. The
efficient deputy, her brother, J. M.
Brown, haa been oonneoted with the
office many years, and i i a universal
favorite. Argus.
It Pays to Advbrtibm. Borne two

the first Insertion of the advertisement
the ateamer carried from St. Helens
35 passengera, but during the first
month the advertisement run the
Mascot carried 164 paasengers from
thia place. These figures are taken
from the purser's report to the board
of inepectors, and proves conclusively
that it does pay to advertise. The ao

GotHO Turtlb HtmTixci. Two men
arrived here this morning from Cali
fornia on their way to the Long Tom',
on a business venture entirely new to
this section of the United States, al
though not to some localities, lays tbs
Eugene Ousrd. It is no Ices than a
turtle-hunting expedition. The men
drove through from California with a
light hack, bringing with them scamp
ing outfit and a light boat about
twelve feet long. They expect lo go
over on tha Long Tom, a slow, slug
gish stream, and spend some time
catching turtles for shipment to Ban
Francisco. They state that there is s
(rood market for them in that oily,
and one of the gentlemen, who has
been in this region before, thinks there
is no better place to hunt turtles than
In the Long Tom. This stream has
always been looked upon as one of no
consequenoe, but may now be brought
into prominence in a commercial way.
Som ethinq About Kails. There
has been quite a change iu the nail
market during the past two weeks.
For years past tha sixty-penny nail
has been the base, and the price on
nails from the sixty-penny down to
ten-penny gradually advanced until
there was a difference of fifty cents
per hundred pounds between the sixty
and ten-penny nails. Last week a
change was made in the East, and the
base was made to Include everything
f'om ten to sixty, quite a material ad
vance being made in the price. This
change went into effl'Ol on this coast
last Friday two weeks ago. Now the
price per hundred pounds is the same
on all sixes from ten-penny to sixty
penny inclusive, but an advance has
been rnsde on the smaller sixes, eight
penny naila being advanced 10 cents
per hucdred, six penny 26 cents, four
penny 40 cents and three-penny 70
cents on tbe hundred pounds.
Their Parts Aix Rioht Five lit
tle maidens went out for a walk. Their
attention was drawn to a display of
pictures on the outer wall of a traveling
photographer's tent. "O, girls, do let
us hsve our pictures taken," cried a
chubby blonde. It was agreed, and
they were to be "taken in the clouds."
The camera man was short of clouds,
but he bad plenty of resources and
promptly improvised some by cutting
a slit in a large newspaper, through
which were soon throat five pretty
heads to be snapped at by the camera.
But when the picture was sent home
a horrible discovery wss made. The
newspaper page had contained mam
moth advertisement of ready-made
clothing, and there beneath each cher
ubic countenance was the line in large
display type: "All Our Pants are
Double Lined."
Cheap Houses. Jode8witzler com
menced last week delivering the big
band of horses be has sold to the Port
land Horse-Meat Canning Company,
says the Eaat Oregoman. He baa sold
his entire band, and tha number will
run from 6000 to 0000. Mr. Bwltxler
does not know just how many horses
he has lost. There may be 5000, and
there may be 7000, but he thinks there
s re between DOW and UUUU. lai week
300 were swum across the Columbia
river fur loading on the train on this
side. He will brine over a bunch
every few days, until all have been de
livered. The average price ha received
for the entire band is about $3 per
head. The horses are in fair condition,
and will doubtless cut up into juioy
steaks.
On From thmParsoii." Tbe Cot
tage Grove Leader is in tbe habit of
getting some pointed aud appropriate
hits in every now and then. One of
the "Person's" last if tbe following:
"Blessed is the man who sitteth not in
the seat of the kicker, nor mingles him
self in the congregation of the moii
bsok ; but his delight is in the new
manufactories and brick blocks, and in
sohemee to build up himself and his

green planted by the river of waters ;
his leaves shall not wither in the early
fall like the cotton wood, for tbe Eli of
tha boomer shall get there, but the
kicker ahall be left to hold tbe bag."
Fihhwat Contract Let Tha con
tract tor conetruclini a flshway in the
dam across tne Clackamaa river, was
on Monday awarded by the committee
having the matter in charge to Mr.
Sidney Smith, of Oregon City. Tbe
cost will be about $1500, which is con
siderably more than, was expected, as
the cannerymen ei peeled that tbe
dam could be built for something less
than 11000. However, a few hundred
