Gumption on the Farm. Not more land, but better land ; not more work, but better planned; not more fields tilled, but fewer fluids tilled better these are the things every good farmer is aiming at Sow wild oats and you will reap with a thrashing maohine. Keep all the nuts and bolts aiing in place. Your machine will last longor and do better work. Oil the bearings often. The horses would thank you for it if they could. Makes the machine wear longer, too. Sow only the plumpest, nicest wheat this fall. Run it through the fanning mill and tak i out all the foul stuff. Good seed is halt the crop. 2 Drain or put kerosene on mud holes and swamps, and screen oistems, water barrels, etc, and there will be no stagnant places tor mosquitoes to breed. When you go ont to cut brush, take a scythe that is stiff enough to stand a good hard blow. And whlie yon are about it take a good Btitf backbone along with you. You will need it be fore night. It is poor economy to nse ' wood to fire the engine on thrashing day. Coal is much more satisfactory for keeping np steam, and is free from sparks that are liable to start fire in straw and grain stacks. The twentieth century is Etr6nnons, oomplex and democratic One-third of the young men of this age are not wanted because of their habits; but trained, loyal, cheerful, sober-minded young men are in demand. The cheap artists continue to pic ture the farmer as bewhiskered and wearing long boots. That type is as rare now as long-haired poets aud picture makers. The twentieth cen tury farmer is a man of business aud looks like a man of business. Do you know that yon can write your name on the metal of your fnrm tools' You can. Just take a little tallow or beeswax, melt it and spread it over the place on which yon want your name ; write your name down through the wax with a big needle or awl and pour a few drops of nitrio acid ovor the letters you have made. Leave a few minutes. Then wipe off the wax and your name will . be on the iron. "Well, John, you didn't get around to fix up the flower beds that you promised your wife. Had no time? Now dont' get huffy if I tell you that you wasted enough time last week ttlking politics down at the corner, andjjrying to swap horses, to have done ten times over what Bhe asked you to do. How she would have en joyed 'puttering' over her flowers in the twilihgt hours of the hot days, and the sight of a bed of snowy asters or golden-hearted pansies from her kitchen window would have helped her over many a morning's work in a stenming hot room." Nehalem, Oregon, July 22, 1008. Editor Courier: A letter from the Nehalem coast may be of interest to your read ers. I left Portland, July 14 aud ar rived in Astoria the following day, coming down on the boat and spend ing two days there. Astoria is a very nice little town of about 25,000 inhabitants, and I en joyed the sights. They have a fine reservoir, a continual stream of water 50 feet high in the center and also a tine fountain for man and beast, and on a little farther there is a little platform and seats for the footsore aud weary to reBt. The scenery is beautiful, the Lewis and Clark river to the right aud the Young river on the left, and farming laud and pas ture everwhere. We walked about six miles up and down hills and it didn't seem to tire me very much, as the air is so brac ing. We left Ast iria on the Steamer Sue H. Elmore for Hobsonville, being eight hours on the ocean and enjoying it very much until 1 experienced the usual seasickness, which continued until we arrived at Hobsonville. We just missed the stage there, so hired a livery to take us to Nehalem, where my son, Cleve Allen, met ns, arriving at Walter Cain's at 8:30 p. in. They live three miles from town on a beau tiful farm of 800 acres, the Neahkauie ranch, owned by Mr. Roed, president of the German-American Bank. My son Pleasant and son-in-law Walter Cain are managing the place as a dairy ranch. Their crops are mostly hay. The scenery is fine and fish and game are plentiful. The Nehkauia mountain is in their pasture. It is 1800 feet high and we are thinking of climbing it soon. People dn not think anything of running up and down the moautains here. I have been down to the beach sev eral times but do not find many shells, though we get crabs, musKtds and clam along some parts of the beach, also kelp sometimes among the rocks washed in by the tide and caught in the rocks, ud then we rake them out. The salmon season opens here the first of August and I am in formed one can buy a 20 or 30 pound salmon for 15 oents. I anticipate re maining bore about ten days and will then retnrn to Portland.
