Inquiry is being made in Pendleton
for cattle and fat mutton sheep. There

The manager of the Pendleton Scour
ing & Packing Company is in Boise,
Idaho, making arrangements for the es
tablishment of a scouring plant there.

terially lessen the cost of scouring.
The large percentage of soda renders
the water peculiarly adaptable to
cleansing purposes.
Considerable progress was made in
the dredging work at the cascades dar
ing the latter part of last week, and
with favorable weather for a few days

The weather observer at Pendleton
says that the general opinion among
the fruit men of that section is that
early fruit was injured, in some local
ities rained for this year, while some

orchards by the reoent cold snap. Late
fruit probably has not been greatly
damaged, and comparatively few late
frnit trees were killed.
T. Letsom met with quite an acci

The road on the grade was quite nar
row and ioy, and, in attempting to go

team were seroinsly injured.
The Albany creamery ' received dar
ing February, with its 29 days, 89,000
pounds of milk over 8,000 pounds a
day. The receipts from the butter
made from it were $1,060. The net
return to the patrons was 25 oents per
punnd. Had they made their own but
ter it would not have been half that
amount The receipts for December
were $640.60, showng a big increase.
The creamery is in splendid hands,
and its business is a matter of local
pride.

which is to be offered for sheep at last
y ear's prices, wbioh were $1 for year
lings, and $1.60 for 2-year-olds.

the Heppner sheep market at the pres
ent time consists of nearly 160,000
sheep. Proa pec ts for the coming wool
clip, the wheat crop and the sale of
sheep in Morrow oounty oause antici

Montana.
The largest popular nonpolitioal con
vention ever held in the state has
olosed its labors in Helena. It was
the immigration and mining conven
tion, oalled for the purpose of effecting
a permanent organisaiton that shall
work for the development of Montana
by securing the immigration of desir
able farmers and the enlistment of
oapital in mining enterprises. Every
oounty was represented. For two
days there was a series of papers by
specialists from all over the state.setting
forth the resources of their respective
seotions. Never was there such a re
sume of tbe advantages of Montana
prepared. Emphasis was laid on the
fact that there are thousands of sores
of tillable land in the state. A very
large percentage of tbe farm produots
and supplies used in the larger oities
are imported from other states. The
oity of Butte alone sends outside $800,
000 annually for batter, eggs and flour.
Scarcely 10 per oent of tbe pork pro
duct consumed in the state are pro
duced at home. Resolutions were
adopted declaring that no more invit
ing field for immigration exists than
Montana. Tbe state had an abund
ance of the finest gracing lands and a
great number of rich valleys, which
will produce crops in abundance. Be
sides, the state is rich in precioas
metals. A permanent bureau will be
organised for the preparation of au
thoritative statements and tbe dis
semination of information and litera
Cam among far men and capitalists.
ORCHARD. :AN1 -FARM
USEFUL INFORMATION CONCERN
ING FARM WORK.
Tha Cow Ought to Bo Kept For Front
Propagating Strawberries by Run
nera Kfrect of Salt on Milk Hon
Mont as Hen Food Motes.
The poorest tool on tbe faoe of tbe
earth is a poor oow. It is not only that
she is no profit, it is worse than that
she runs you in debt Still worse is
the case if tbe poor oow be one of
herd, and for this reason: If a person
keeps bat one oow he very soon knows
if she be good or bad, bnt if he keeps a
good many, the worthless oow is not
so readily deteoted. She may be a
smooth looking animal, and may even
give a fair flow of milk, and yet she
may not only fall short of paying for
her keep, but be eating up all the profit
made by her neighbor, and so the
farmer has not a oent of gain on the
pair. And the useless oow is not only
deteriorating aa vears iro bv. bat is Der-
Vetuating her worthless kind, to the
loss of her owner and to the detriment
of all the country around. The form
and features of a good dairy oow have
been so often described that only a
brief mention is needed here, bat some
points are so essential that they can
hardly be too strongly impressed. A
good oow must be long, level, loose
jointed, with a oapaoious body, short,
fine legs, long, light neck, olean oat
and intelligent head, thin withers,
deep flank, thin, flat thighs, and rioh,
soft, mellow skin, showing a deep or
ange oolor under any white markings,
snd inside of ear. As viewed from the
side, she must present a perfeot wedge
shape, exceedingly deep behind and
very light in front, and, as viewed
front behind, she most show ample
room to oarry a large, fall adder with
ease and without chafing. No cow
oan do this that is of a beefy conform
ation and that has not a good "arch."
Propagating Strawberries. .
The varieties of strawberries mainly
cultivated in this oonntry are propa
gated from the runners. The first pro
duced are usually the strongest and
best for early planting, but those that
are iirmed later in the season are
equHily as good when they arrive at
the bame age or size. A few theorists
have maintained that the first plants
formed near the parent stool were
the only ones that should be used, and
that they were far superior to the oth
ers and would always be more prolific
This assertion is not supported by
facts; consequently is not worthy of a
moment's thought To insure the
rooting of runners, the surfaoe of the
soil should be kept loose and open, and
if the weather is very dry at the time
they are forming, it is well to go over
the beds and cover the new. roots as
they are produced. When only a few
very large and strong plants are want
ed it is well to pinoh off the runner
just beyond the first plant, and this
may beoome stong and vigorous.
k Effect of Salt on Milk.
Salt given to cows has some effect on
the quality of milk. This is neces
sarily so as salt aids very muoh in the
digestion of the food, and it is tbe
quantity of the food digested that regu
lates the quantity and quality of the
milk. Salt is indispensable to the
health of any animal that feeds on
vegetable matter, and the milk is
affeoted greatly by the health or oppo
site oonditlon of a oow. When salt is
given to excess, it is injurious and
OHUses an intense thirst, but this does
not neoessarily make the milk more
watery than usuaL If the oow drinks
more water than is oustomary there is
no reason to believe that this excess of
water dilutes the milk. The milk is
not made in any suoh way as would
make this possible. It is produoed by
the breaking down of the glandular
tissue of the adder and this never con
tains more than a normal quantity of
water. The kidneys are oharged with
the removal of anyexoessof water from
the blood, and this drain or onltet, iZ'
in good working condition, will al
ways attend to its own business, and
if it does not or oannot, for any reason,
the milk glands oannot perform this
funotion, but the oow beoomes diseased
at onoe. But this is a question that
the oareful farmer will never have to
consider, because he will always take
care that snob a supposed mistake will
never happen, says a writer upon the
subject It is only the careless farmer
who runs risks of giving his cows, or
permitting them to get, too much salt
Bora Meat aa Ban Food.
Hundreds of barrels of cooked horse
meat are sold every winter to poultry
raisers, aooording to the Agriculturist.
The horse flesh is cooked in tight tanks
under a steam pressure of forty-five
pounds. This penetrates every jiar
tide of the meat, purifying and cook
ing it thoroughly. In this form the
meat will keep from one to four weeks,
aooording to the weather, lhere is
no practical way of preserving bone
meat for any length of time. Where it
oannot be cooked by steam it should be
boiled. The meat might be salted tbe
same as beef, but it would have to be
freshened before being used, and it is a
question whether it would then be a
safe feed for bens. It is a good food
for egg production. One of the most
popular brands of poultry meat on the
market is made from carefully pre.
pared and well cooked horse flesh.
PI o tea.
Hens are very fond of mangels and
they are good for them.
Fresh raw meat and clover are good
egg produoers. But feed meat only
two or three times a week.
Eggs should be gathered every day
in order to be of a first-class quality,
and none should be sent to market un
lets perfectly clean.
PORTLANC markets.
A full supply of early California pro-'
duos came in on the last steamer. A
carload of bananas from New Or.eans
has arrived this week. Receipt of
eggs hsve been large, but quotation
have ohanged but little from those of
last week. The bnttor market is not
so Arm, and arrivals of California bat
ter will probably bring about a docline.
Groceries, provisions, etc, are on
