The .".Settler" are understiaal by historian to lai that via who came to Oregon In emigrant trains, to find home. ' The live of the early missionaries andotlkvrs of the Hudson Bay Com pany have tieeu well recorded, but very little haa been w rliteu of the home life and occup itlon of the "Settler." Ill nut a difficult matter to obtain record of how they traveled to Oregon, what kind of house they dwelt lu, what they had toeut, what they wore, and how they occupied themselves. , But of the home l.f of the "Settler," he who came to save Oregon for the Uulted State, little ha ta-n written. Now and then the typical Oregoulan, the one who tk a donation laud claim, built him a house, married aud raised a family, the one who ha iiumi ou his back, and children who have web feet he had a home life. ; These laud-claim of three hundred and twenty acre to a single man, and six hundred aud forty acre for a mail and hi wife, wt re. given to people If they would cultivate them for four year after which they could receive a patent. Thus the population w a made up of people with these kinds of home. The home of the pioneer wa a log hut, which contained uuu, ami some time, two room. These log hut hud puncheon floors, and the roof were made of three-foot board, ami ome of ti foot boants, wiiluh liMiked the better. The bnauu usetl then were not like we uae now, but were made either of choke cherry or bael. Wry few people hail stove, but used a fire place, lu which they cooked; but they had all brought bake oveu wit h them, in W hlch they baked bread, cake, aud pie. The pioneer had no nmm then a we have now, but Used caudle, and many lime were out uf tallow, with which they made candle; they then used twiated cloth, laid lu a saucer of grease, which were known as "sop lanii." Perhaps the giaal man had brought an ax, and a saw or chisel, all of which he made gisal use of. He fashioned a tub for washing, a howl for nutter, aud a churn. How did he grind hi colter? He had none to grind, as general thing, for the pioneer had little money to buy provision from the Hudson Bay Company' store, at V jver. An emigrant tralu might arr with a little codec, tea or sugar, a I be glad to divide the laat cupful :U au emigrant of a previous ye They were uot allowed to buy over five pound of cofice from the Hudson Bay Company' store at one lime, aud always parched pea to mix with it, so It would laat longer. If t. ,ty had no aa, they parched corn meal or wheat Instuad. They could get no green tea, aa it was very scarce, but they used the black tea, which wa then one dollar a pouud. When they did not have itlier the greeu or black tea they used a peculiar kind of vine, which grew lu the woods, for the same purpose. The good houae wife hud her baking days the same as ahe had when living in the Eastern state. Now It may acem a luxury that any of these early settler had pie. There wa no fat lu the laud, aud you may wonder how they got their crust. How did they get the cruat? Well, a few French Canadians had gotten seed wheat from the Hudson liay Company store, and planted field.' They had reaped harvest, and the missionaries had built mills. The one at Salem w as the moat convenient for the people of Polk couuty, until one was built upon the Luckiamute river above the present city of Dallas, by Jimmy O'Neal. The people had no threshing ma chine at that time, but they would clean the ground and let aome. horrfu tramp the wheat out of the sheaves; run it through a fanning machine, aud then it wua ready to tj ground. The house-wife hail Hour with which alie made her bread. Tills bread waa very browu all the way through, aa they acraped up the clay with the wheat, after being trained upon by the horses. The cattle that pulled the wagon across "the plains" soon fattened on the tall green grass that reached above their knees, while the old pioneers look back upon these cattle aa the animal who brought them here, and It seems now like they ought to have been kept sacred, us the Egv ptlans kept their animal long ages ugo, yet neces sity seemed to say "The cattle must make my food." The fat rendered In to tallow made good tie cruat, when mixed Willi spring water and flour, The old pioneer will relate to this day what good Hour was made in their (list Hour mills. " ; One of the guild grandmothers used to send the fattier of one of the boys. -In this class to gather sorrel for the Inside of the pie. "' The cakea made In those days were mostly the aponge cake, pound cake, plain cake and log cabin cake; the latter wua cut Into long strips, ami built, up lu the shape ofa log cabin. Perhupa the unmarried man found a young womau who looked kindly at him aud a wedding was the result. An"Infair Day" waa me of the social event after marriage. This day wa Usually celebrated at the home of Hi groom, or at one of Ida friends, after they had returned from the Inane of the bride., ... " The girls helped to card, split wool ami knit k. .
