It is always an easy matter to distin
guish the thriftv farmer from the care
less one. The difference is depicted in
the manner in which each takes care ot
his farming machinery. The time of
the year has come when the farmer
should take care of the farm imple
ments. Every plow, wagon, harrow,
reaper, mower or other implement used
ehould be stored away out of the sun.
rain and snow. Sited for storage should
lie built and It should be borne in mind
that protection is as important as any
task of the farm. Thousands of dollars
are lost evory year by the thoughtless
ness of farmer in not caring for their
Implement.

Will Chandler was the victim of an
other misfortune last Saturday in the
loss of his beet working horse. In haul
ing a largo log with four horses to the
brow of a bluff, the log, Instead of stop
ping, went over, dragging the whole
team with it, some lixty feet to the bot
tom. It was some time before the team
could be extricated, and when released
one was dead and the other had a severe
gash, several inches long, cut in its side,
will feels as though he was in hard luck,
this being the second horse he has lost
while logging. He proposes to push
ahead however, expecting better success
hereafter.
A crowd of our citizens, sufficiently
large to fill Conyers' hall, gathered last
Friday evening to hear tiie drama "What
Next,5' rendered by our local talent, di
rected by Mrs. J. Addison Smith, who
took one of the leading character her
self. The hall had been decorated with
bunting, evergroen and flower, pre
senting a very attractive appearance.
Aside from Mrs. Smith's part, which
site rendered with a realism that was
surprising a well as amusing, the prom
inent actors were Professor Whitten
and Hall, Postmaster Warren, Messrs.
Kabrique, E. 0. Blackford, Mrs. E. D.
Tichenor, Misses Laura Conyers, Madge
Hiatt, Mable and Maggie Blackford,
with some younger persons as accessor
ies. We would like to mention in de
tail the individual merits of the differ
ent characters, but it might be looked
upon as an unwarranted glorification of
those of our own town. Possibly the
drama could bave been brought out as
well in some of our neighboring towns,
but if so the characters would have to
got up pretty early in the morning and
work until late at night to do so. The
town is proud of Its talent but is modest
about proclaiming it, not wanting to
hurt the feelings of those not fortunate
enough to have his or ber lot cast in
Clatekanie. Suffice it to say we enjoyed
the drama, and thought the parts were
brought out in an expressive and mas
terly manner. Not the least attraction,
by any means, was the Tichenor orches
tra, consisting of Messrs. S. L. and E.
Tichenor, S. Shourds and Misses Tracy
and Barr, with clarionet, two violins,
cornet and piano. Their excellent
music added greatly to the enjoyment
of the evening. The performance was
repeated the next evening with a much
energy and excellence, but to a smaller
audience, as the rain was falling in
good shape. Mrs. Smith devoted much
time to working up this drama and de
serves much of the credit for its success.

Annie Meacher and Thomas Devlne
mode proof on their homestead before
the county clerk on Monday. Mils
Mescher's witnesses were Fred Nein
stedt and J. R. Headlee, and her land
is the northwest one-fourth of section
10, township 6 north, range 8 west. Mr.
Devine's witnesses were Louis Malcolm
and J. R. Headlee, and hi land is the
northwest one-fourth of section 83, town
ship 7 north, range 3 west.
If Mr. A. F, Reed were told that he
owned eighty acres of land in Columbia
county lie would be very- much inclined
to discredit the statement. Some time
ago a patent wa issued to him for the
south one-half of the northeast one
fourth and north one-half of southeast
one-fourth of section 8, township 6
north, range 3 west. Mr. W. L. Clark,
a non-resident, desired to become the
owner of the land, hence a bargain was
made lor $860 and what Mr.. Heed
thought was his land waa accordingly
earch of the record It is demonstrated
that Mr. Reed deeded eighty acre of
his own land and eighty acre of his
neighbor's land to Mr. Clark. Mr.
Reed still own eicthty acres of land.
but it would require considerable evi
dence, no doubt, to convince him of the
tact.
A patent was filed for record in the
clerk' office last Friday which ia rather
an odd document. It is a grant by the
government to a piece of land, the west
one-hall of the southwest one-fourth of
section 12, township 7 north, range 3
west, containing so acres, and wa is
sued to Josiah Johnson en the 4th day
March, 1890. Mr. Johnson secured the
land by applying upon it purchase
firice from the government a bounty
and warrant, assigned to him by 8am-
una imi iivii, m .iTb . n.mi.i
Morris' company of Pennsylvania mil
itia in the war of 1812, in accordance
with an act of congress of 1856. Mr.
Johnson, becoming quite aged, had
Judge Doan look after his business af-
lairs, and upon application at the Ore
gon City land office it waa found that
the patent had been there a good many
years. Toe document is now on record.
It ha come to light that between the
southern boundary of Columbia county
and the northern boundary of Multno
mah county there is a strip of land
which is in neither one of those counties.
The discovery waa made by Assessor
White, who was searching lor the loca
tion of the lands upon the request of a
firm of Portland lawyer. The land I
on Sauvies island, and comprise that
portion ol the south one-ball or section
19, lying east of the Willamette slough,
the south one-half of sections 20, 21 and
22, township 3 north, range 1 west.
Several yean ago it Is said, a bill was
fiassed oy tne legislature, removing tne
ine of Columbia county one-half mile
north, and no provision waa made for
extending the Multnomah county line
up to it. Hence the parcel of land be
longs to neither county, and is three
andone-fourth mile long and one-half
mile wide. Messrs. Frank Dow. Cuth
bert Stump and E. House own land in
the strip. People who pay taxes in both
counties have always claimed to pay
less taxes in Multnomah county than in
Columbia, being of the impression that
these lands were assessed in Multnomah
county. Neither assessor assessed the
land and consequently no tax was
paid on it. Here is a splendid oppor
tunity for Columbia' next representa
tive to cover himself with glory by get
ting a bill through the next legislature
annexing that three-mile atrip to Co
lumbia's domain.

The first indication of croup is hoarse

the approach of an attack. Following
this hoarseness is a peculiar rough

appears, it will prevent the attack. ' It
