One of the most successful farmers' i inpiitutes ever held in Oreg"n, was erm-1 ducted under the auspices oi Springwai- trr Orange, assisted by professors of ihe j state agricultural college. The instir SJJ tnle lasted two days, and the Spring- 'Lp water people did themselves credit. I 5p A ' Larey gave the address of wel- j j come, which was in partas follows: The importance of the meeting, and j fej enn' fasting 50 vars ago with the pres-1 Vh ent time, and the changes that it is nec-1 Jp ef sarv for th Agriculturist to maUe. w e have lessaJand to work than formerly, and the producer has become ah impor tant (actor. Dr. James Vitt.ycombe, of the statei other pKA in a wagon, every time you break down it costs you money called attention to the taci tnai iarmem iihould keep pace with the times ixlnnteri nii-todata. The So l farmers' capital, and lecommended di versified farming. This vicinity was well adapted to stock and dairying. xToleseorFi L Kent called attention to the advantages of the hand cream separator. He had been familiar with its ne for the past five of six years. The advantage of the band cream, separator that the farmer can keep the skim milk and fesd it warm to the calves.. He rennmrnenHeil ieedinor the calf itl moth ers milk until it is eight days, old, then. mix oil meal with milk two weens, men give it ground oats and wheat, fed dry. Rev. Julian Hatch, of Springwater, was the next speaker, and advocated woman suffiage, and the diifranchise- ment of the ignorant and vicious. Dr. Withvfiomhe aleo discussed inten sive agriculture, and urged a rotation of crops, bummer laliow is exnaunuiiK iu the soil, and takes away the humus. He also told them to save the barnyard ma nure, and not let it leach under the eaves of the barn. Clover is a good fer tilizer, and the loots go down into the Bubsoil. Do not haul off your clover hay ; feed it on the farm, as three times more stock can be kept by Boiling, than by pasturing. lJro!emor Kent toia aooui me ujuuci dairyman. He must take an interest in the cows; be kind to them; understand the uibke-np of the animal. Weed out the po:r cows. The successful dairy man keeps his cows going in winter and summer. Be very careiul not to dis turb the cows just before milking, and the milking should be done regularly. SKCOND DAY. John Stunner gave some excellent suggestions on sheep raising, tie aa vised keeping a general purpose Bheep. Evsry farmer should keep a few sheep They are profitable, and , besides keep the weeds and briars down, and are ex mUint noil fortiUsem i Edwin Bates led in a discmsion of, growing and drying prunes.. He con-1 tended tht they should be planted on rolling ground, facing the northwest, and explained different methods of dry ing. Dr. Withycombe discussed forage crops. He recommended the' raising of red clover. His plan was to sow rape with oats, the former in the proportion of two Donnd ner acre. After the oats is taken off, the ground will afford ex cellent pasture Mrs S E. Bates gave an excellent discourse on Doultrv raising. She claimed that there should be a law parsed providing a bounty on the scalps yarmints that play navoc wuu chicken yards. She said that ttie best all-round chicken was the Plymouth Ruck or cross with the leghorn. The best way to Bet a hen is to fill a box half full of dirt, damnen it. and cover with etraw. She considered that, broilers i were the most profitable to raise fori market Dr Withycombe alsi discussed silos and ensilage. He considered that the best plan of silo structure was a circular wooden aflair, tongued and grooved ana fastened with wire hoops. Corn makes the best ensilage and clover and peas next. Clover for Bilage Bhould be cut in full bloom, and vetch when pods form. Tramp down compact, put grass or any green substance on top. ine iounua lion should be concrete. Plants should be hauled in as soon as cut. Professor Kent explained the work ings of the Babcock test. Oue of the features of the institute was the address of A. M. Shib.ey. His topic was "Discontent, Doubt aud Energy to Overcome:" In part he spoke of Adam and Eve, the first sgri culturists, Genesis 2-15. And the Lord God took that, man and put him into the garden of Eden, to dress it and to keep it from the subtility of the .Devil. Adam and Eve got discon tented and full of doubt, and did not have the moral courage to withstand the wiles of the Devil, the curse was pro nounced on the ground, so we have to make our living by the sweat of our brow. We are befe to discuss the best means to that end. Our lathers their discontent abandoned their homes, a id came to America and landed on Plymouth Rock, which was one ot the oriiinB of this great empire. The dis content of our forefathers, with Wash ington at the head, was the beginning of the greatest free nation in the world, which is destined to enlighten the earth. The speaker followed with some per sonal reminiscences. The professors of the Oregon Agricul tural followed with an exhibition of stereopticon views. The people of Springwater gave ex cellent programs of music, song and rec itations interspersed bttween the ad dresses and instructive papers. Among thase who contributed numbers were: On the first day was a recitation by Master Roy Lacev, song by Mr. and VI rs.
