DavidHon to euro for a little boy they had
with thorn for an hour or so. fjho very
kindly conaunlod to do ho, whon the
women wunt away but failed to return.
On Friday Mr. Davidson brought the
boy to Oregon City, wont before County
Judge Hayes and hud him committed to
the boyg and Girl's Aid society at Tort
land. All that is known about the child
was obtained from the lad himself. He
is an unusually bright, lino looking little
fellow ahout throe years old, of a confid
ing, loving nature and easy to get ac
quainted with. He is light complex
ioned and has long golden curls. He
also has a scar on his left eye and
tomple resembling a powder bum, but
the child told It was (tanned by falling
ugiilust a si urn p. When ipiealloiind a
to hi home and parenlugn all Unit could
bu learned was that hi mother bad
taken him to hi grandmother' to lire
but lit) tllil nt know when nor where.

with him the hid discovered a campaign
button on Mr, Hyde's coitt and asked
"Klnley button"? Mr. Hyde Inquired;
"What do you know about a McKlnley
huttiih?" "Oh! wo got Klnley button
at home, up alalia." Kind hearted Mrs,
Nuhren cared for the child over night
and her loving, mother heart completely
won the affection of the child who
called her "Mamma." Mr. Nuhren
say the intelligence of the child, to
gether with hia clothing and manner
show him to be well bred and Well
raised, He wa very polite at the table
ami used his napkin and ale with a
fork a though he wits "to the manor

with tlm desertion of (hi) child is
certain, but the real cause may never be
known.
Fmkk HriiHAiiK Or (Jmaim. The Port
land Flouring Mills Company, of thl
city, will give farmer free atoragn for
their wheat until May I, lH'.m, and are
prenarrd to al'irn af aoiit 2'0,Urf)
bushel. I.nst year Ihewt mills received
(HI I IiiihIii Is, delivered by llie farmer
of Clackamas county In ihelr wagons,
ht-aido what ciiine on the car from
Canby, Itarlow-, New I'.ra snd other
plucf on the railroad. They are paying
71 cent M-r biiliel fur bulk wheal
without sin ks, which is equal to 7H cents
per bushel for wheat delivered In Tort
hind with the freight and sacks added.
Theie mills are now receiving a general
ovei hauling and are being put thor
oughly in order for the tu-aon' run.
The roll have been nground
and rei-orrugitted, new silk
added lo the bolting inai'hiiiery ami
quite an additional amount of new spout
ing put up. In fact no mills in thu slate
are better prepared to handle the sea
son's crop than aro tbo Oregon Clly
mills. The roads of Clackamas county,
thanks tomircash road system, are get
ting In such excellent condition and thu
city as a maiketing place oilers such ad
vantages that more wheat will probably
I mi stored here this season thiin ever be
fore. Thk (h aim Caoi', Harvesting is now
iiiidi-r way and some threshing ha been
done, riiu quality ol tlm wheat was
never better than It is this year, the
twrry Mng large and plump and millers
ay it will make very fine flour. The
reKirt from the counties throughout
(lie slste show that the crop this year
will be fully "5 rtenl larger than the
average, a number of crops having
threshed Xi and 40 bualiela per acre
The price has been steadi'y advancing
lately and those who are in a pusition to
know, say it w ill reach HO cents, owing
greatly tu the general shortage of the
crop in almost ail other wheat grow ing
ci in nt rim of the world. Kindly tent
a heat these limes, w ith clieup labor anil
low prices for merchandise, it just as
gixsl or belter than one dollar wheat
wa a few years ago, I'Ut-kaiuas county
w ill produce about K'S.lXrO bushels of
w heat this year, w hich is an increase of
some '.'5,000 biihbels over last year's
crop. Heporl from the oat and barley
crops show that they will be equally as
good as the w heat crop.
Thk Wool) I'hoiii.k h 1'eople who
used to think timber would alwsy he a
drug on the market and w ho burned up
great quantities of It simply lo get it out
of the way are beginning to realixtt their
mistake. F.vcry year the timber is
being cut oil farther Irom the city and at
thu present rale it is disappearing it will
not be five years until it will bo scarce
and demand a much higher price in this
vicinity than it doe now. The Tort
land (tent-rat l'.leclric Company has
ti(HH) cords of wood ricked upon the
west side of the river near the end of
the suspension bridge, ready for usu
next winter when the roads get too bad
to haul it from the timber. Oregon City
consumes more wood than any other city
in the state outside ol l'ortlund. The
paper mills, woolen mills, private
families, etc., in this city consume each
year over 55,1X10 cords of wood, an amount
which will very soon clear oil all the
land within convenient tliatance of this
city.
Ohkiion's Nut Cuop. Oregon bus a
greul tlurth of native, nut-bearing trees,
only two, the oak and the hazel, being
indigenous to this state, but they seem
determined to mako up in quantity thiB
year w hat we luck in variety and conse
quently we have one ol the largest crops
of these two nuts ever known in the
history of the stale. The hazel nuts
found here are not like the kind grown
in the Eastern status but are akin to the
English filbert, Tlio hazel bushes here
grow to be diminutive trees, attaining a
height of 20 and 30 luut and oftentimes
measure from four to six inches in
diameter. The Indians have a legend
tluit whenever there is an abundance of
mast, the following winter is sure to be
severe and we shall look for a verification
of this legend during the coming winter.
Coyotks NuMKKotis Reports come
from lower Beaver creek In New Era
product that of late the coyotes have be
come quite numerous and are regaling
themselves on spring lamb and chickens
to the serious financial loss aa well as
disturbance of the peace of .mind of
the worthy fanner of that section. One
day lust week Robert Kellarid shot a big
wolf in hi fluid who wsa attempting a
raid upon til chicken and Mr, Kelland
slate that many more ol tlitue chicken

It Is Greatly
To Your Interest
To consider the wisdom of this
little bit of plain advice we are
going to give you about tea.
Ten is as littlo understood by
tho average merchants as by
the averago consumer. He
may charge you 75 cents for a
tea worth 25 cents and still
not make a large profit. He
buys his teas like the con
sumer, from appearance solely.
The fact is, the prettiest look
ing teas are artificially colored
and haye lead, terra-alba and
other matter added to increase
thoir weight. It's small wonder
so many people prefer cofl'ee
and don't care for tea. A
pound of pure tea will make
from 200 to 250 cups. It is
therefore not expensive. As
it is the principal beverage of
nearly threo-quarters of the
peoplo of the earth it must bo
considered wholesome. Our
stock is a feature of our busi
ness. We carry the largest
stock and greatest variety.
We can make you all tea
drinkers if you'll give us a
chance to find what suits your
taste, and you will never regret
it. Samples cost you nothing.
