Messrs. Derrick & Co. have several crews in the woods in this part of the country peeling chittim bark for the mar kets. The business has grown to won derful proportions the past year. It seems ' as if it would be a profitable crop for farmers to raise in this part of the country for future markets. We noticed the genial countenances of John H. Wilson, Anton Pederson, frank Peterson, and many other prosperous Ne ualem farmers in the city this week. Their owners were buying goods and do ing various kinds of business with our citizens. Mr. James 0. Kelson, of the Upper Clatskanie, was in the city Tuesday, at tending to some legal business, and while here took in the sights of the city. j The hoys say that there is war and ru mors of war on Deep Creek. They say that some dude from Clatskanie went over to that part of the country and slung on gall to beat the band, and finally used some verv had language to one of the na tive young men of that place, when the young man landed him one on the nose, which caused him to drop clear down on the sawdust pile and wipe the blood from his face, nearly spoiling his good clothes; then jumped onto him, and would have been pounding him yet If John Lane had not interfered and pulled him off. They say that John advised him to go home and behave himself, and not make him self so conspicuous; that the young men of the Kchalem were not fools, as Mr. Dude would have them think. It is said here that the fellow has s big mouth, and likes to make himself heard on all occasions.

It t now believed that fir stumps will become a source of productive value, and the owner of logged off timber land will in time be enabled to prepare the soil for other crops at a diminished cost. The fir stnmp and its long roots are rich iu resinous gums, and the staple prjV.u-ts of pitoh, tar, and turpentinj can be easi ly distilled from the greatest obstacle to timber lands. The much despised fir stumo bids fair to become alnpjt as iai. portant in commerce as the body of the big ree itself. Persons Interested In timber have long discussed the probability that fir stumps would become valuable forthjircooi at rial products. In addition t t'o staple KoTAItr Pl'BLIC. CoSTIYAKCWa.
