That the water need purl fi cation no one will plant will do the wo sh ill do no one will i ritleis the expend! tore. The henlth of the city is too serl out an affair to admit of any other course no matter how high the cost. It is hoped and believed that tho water hereafter furnished will be such an improvement on that furnished iu tho pastas will sat isly all critics. 1 Is another column will be found the expenditure of the county for the last year exclusive of road expenses. This expenditure ol the county is made the basis of fixing the proportion of the state tax the county pays. The legislature .fixed the part of the state tax each county pays for five yearn. After that time the part each couuty pays wilt bo determined by the amount spent by each county locally. So that economy at home will result in a reward of ten taxs to pay the state. n Q H H A K.I1S A IM JJ l At,iVlll Ur 3 continent has Irouhlu In supplying tho di'iiiitud. ClacKamas.

Sluw, of Iowa, to the Secretaryship of the Treasury, is being accepted in all piris of the country with evident satis faction. The money centers of the East -appear complainant over the event, as .'Mr. Shaw is a man whose financial rec- o d is known and approved among them, while the West is pointing out with de light that tie is the is the fust head of .government finances to be chosen from the country west of the Mississippi. He will, consequently, enter office with the support and good-will of banks and hank ers in every section. The finances of the United Stales are under the direct .control of Congres, and the Secretary is generally little more than an executive officer. Governor Shaw has won his place by a vigorous support of sound money and advocacy of the gold stand ard, and his work in the Treasury De partment will be largely meatured by ttii influence which he an exert .upon CongrebS in improvement of financial policies. When he enters the treasury his posi tion will be unique among the fiscal agents of the World. While other na tions are struggling with new methods of taxation and avoiding swelling detiicits, Mr. Shaw will be confronted with ques tions of tax reductions, bond payments, and surplus management all concomit ants of an overflowing treasury. On the first of January there was about. $325,- 000,000 for the Secretary to draw upon the available cash being $17.3,000,000, and the reserve fund $150,000,000. The excess of receipts over expenditures lor the last six months is about $45,000,000, which, notwithstanding the reduction of internal revenue taxes, is estimated will be increased to $100,000,000 by the end of the fiscal year on June 30th next. The problem before the new Secretary will be that of controlling this increaeiog Bur plus, which, if continued, is likely to lead to unhealthy financial conditions. The only method in the hands of the Secretary is to apply it to the reduction of the national debt. There is do limit to the amount of bonds he may purchase with the surplus, but be will be con (rooted by the fact that in good times the holders of the bonds are not anxious to sell, and to bid too high a premium to secure them would be bad financiering, leaders In Congress are waiting to see what appropriations wil), be called for. They anticipate an increase of expendi tures on account of the isthmian canal, the Pacific cable, additions to the navy, and poib!y the passage of a ship sub sidy bill. After that they will consider internal taxation, and perhaps wipe out most of the remaining war taxes. Tins annual report of the financial transactions of Oregon City for 1001, is published in another column ai.d shows a very satisfactory condition of affair?. The finance committee, of which Mr. R. Koerner is chairman, bus exercised a strittt supervision over the finances of the city and the administration just closed has been an economical one. Ir you are not registered you must do it in order to vote next June. Yon must register again no matter if you were reg istered at the last election. Do not put this off as you will want to vote in June Winter Care (if ('oar). During tho winter months a wise dairy man will always give his cow whiter care. I mean by this that his attontiou to his daiiy will not bo governed by the vagar ies of the weather. , Some men lot their milch cows run promiscuously over the fields eveiy blight or watm day duting the cold sea son, but even il they own and control cuws it would bo a misnomer tocalltuch persons dairymen. I wish to place great emphasis on the importance of warm housing and regular feeding and watering of cow from now until gra grows again. On account of the possibility of In viting tuberculosis, do not tolerate a damp or poorly Ventilated stable. 1 think that bovine tuberculosis is propagated more extensively through the medium of unsanitary labUa than any other cause. Of course, the winter months, when the c-ows are clooely con fined, give rise to the most daugor in this direction. Pure healthy milk must be obtained in order to make first-class butter, so you see the hygiene of the stable I all important. I tmm i --' Tub Governor of Kentncky says that state is in a peaceful condition. We as sume, therefore, that every Kentuckian has his bottle tilled and knows where the next one is coming from. The Supreme Court of the United States has decided ngainst Captain Ober tin M. Carter. His next move doubt less will be for a constitutional amendment.

During the recent cold snap, some1 merchants of Oregon City sent a large lot of the finest apple this market had ever soen down here to be sold. There was a glut and they were not disposed o' and wore left on the Lnrline dock. The- Gloria Mundis, V rginia Greenings and Baldwins are such tine apples that they nuke the mouth water to look at them. Their flavor is something seldom found lere. The cold snap prevents shipments eat and runs the price down. There are Immense plies of the 75- cent apple boxes on the dock waiting for a pur chaser. Astoria News. Sheep Killed By EaUng: Barley. The Lakeview Examiner reports a lai go lose of sheep through eating fallen heads of barley. The hand wan turned into a field of barley that hud been cut and ate a great many of the Iteads which had fallen down.

Farmer Facta Healthy cows cannot long remain so in unhealthy surroundings, nor when fed or watered irregularly. Soil moisture If conrervod by plowing, This loosens tho unpor layers of soil and prevents rapid evaporation. Ameilca holds the proud distinction ol producing the greatest variety of food stuffi of any nation on earth. In experiment conducted bv tit Maryland Station, skim milk was found to be as digestible as whole raw milk. It is remarked that one rent a d iv will keep a Japanese. Hme i economy that might bo considered by tome oven In this country. The province of Ontario, Canada, spends nearly $10,000 annually in tho promotion of agrii-ul Ural associations, mainly in annual exhibitions. The dairies throughout Die land that are paying the host profli today are l hone that are minutely supervised In every detail by their owner. The IMilo farmer gives an Instance whore a sack containing sixty Are pot weighed 107 p-hi mis. The potatoes woie grown in the state of Washington. The Iowa Experiment Station Inds that corn will shrink 15 per cent of its weight in year. This has been deter mined by boMingarribonasetoIsrales. It is Interesting to hear that a Kana farmer has gotten out a steam plow that does a much' work twenty lour horse and eight nu n working the same lengtli of time.

The dairman who iel in Ida own in lkig, and teronally do-a or assists iu ail of the care and footling of his cows, is, if be is truly inearnoot, seldom forced to dollar that dairiag i a failure.

I have used this remedy in my family for the past seven years and have never known it to fail," says James Prender- gast, merchant, Annato Bay, Jamaica, West India Islands. The pains in the chest indicated an approaching attack of pneumonia, which in this instance was undoubtedly warded off by Chamber lain's Cough Remedy.
