For advertisements in this column the rate of 15 cents per line will be charged. Hatchet hero February 22nd at First M. E. church. Miss Emma Sox spent Sunday in this city, the guest of Miss Nolan. John Withycombe, reading clerk of the house at Salem, spent Sunday in Corvallis. Senator Johnson came up from Salem Friday evening and return ed Monday morning. ' -Wm. !Nixon, of the Occidental hotel, is just out from a protracted illness. He had a severe attack of pleurisy. William Mackay, former sheriff of Benton, attended the remains ot his father to Corvallis Monday. Mr Mackay seemed surprised at the improvements in Corvallis. :. He is engaged in the hop business near Independence. Carpenters and contractors are looking forward to a very busy season in Corvallis. At this early date each knows ot 18 to 25 new residences to be erected Jthis coming spring and summer. Already number of foundations are being laid. The college boys andjthose about town are beginning to limber up for base ball. The game promises to attract considerable interest here the coming season, as it is known that among both the college and town boys there is much good base ball material. -For some days past the weath erhas been all that could be desired for pleasure. If there are any ob lections to it whatever they come from fruit raisers, who may be afraid that possibly these sunshiny davs may advance vegetation to such an extent that it- is liable to injury from a brief cold snap. An Orego man-writer remembers that the conditions now and for the past month are similar to those, of 1863 at this season, and that the spring was early and followed by abundant cropsf . If climatic history repeats itself that spring of. 1863 ought certainly to -, -be . recurring - along about now. " Frank Seits was in town the other day, having come by way of Corvallis on his way home from Toledo, whether he had gone on business with the county court. Mr. Seits secured a contract for building a bridge across Five Rivers, just below its junction with Lob ster. A new bridge was well un der way at that point last fall, but a sudden rise in the streams swept the incomplete structure away. Par ties doing the worlc then threw up their contract and it has just been relet, as stated, to Mr. Seits. Billy Broders is considerably annoyed by the frequent disappear ance of an electric lamp which he endeavors to maintain at the rear of his place of business. Because of the secluded locatiou and the consequent small chance of detec tion, somebody simply steals the lamps. amy is now Keeping a keen lookout for the culprit, and he expects to apprehend him. .Read ers will Kindly deler comment up on the disappearance of lights gen erally throughout the city and up on the . improbability of anybody finding Billy's lamp after nightfall. For the past week the electric lights have been woise than ever. When the river was up, it was the reoort that the lights were bad on f, . tt7-l tnat aCCOUnt. When the river went down and the lights contiri I - . . ued bad somebody suggested that it was because the river wasn't up. The facts are understood to be that the light people have not power at Albany to serve so many systems. Their water power is over loaded and until they get " more or apply steam a satisfactory service is im possible. The lights for the past week have been practically as bad as no lights, for in many an in stance in order to read in the same room where the lights were, burn ing there had to be resort to a lamp or candles. A pamphlet descriptive of the prizes and terms of the AU-Benton School Fair has been issued by Su perihtendent Denman. It gives full particulars and is being mailed to every family in the county. ; If any fail to receive it, they can ob ram a copy by sending the name and address to the superintendent's office. The campaign for the Fair is not dragging but is being pushed with all vigor, and the event will be the biggest thing of the kind f ever held in Benton. It is to con tinue three days, and the crowd in attendance will be the largest ever gathered "together in the county. Among the speakers will , be Gov ernor Chamberlain . and Senator Fulton. A social t a i to be given at Bellfountain on the 22nd, for the benefit of the band. Billy Cnrrin was a Westside passenger lor Portland yesterday. Captain Apperson spent yes terday in this city, auditing college accounts. Next Friday night OAC and Roseburg High School girls play basket ball in the Armory. Mrs. Washburn of Browns ville, is visiting her father, Caleb Davis, and other relatives. Dr. j. R. N. Bell went to Portland Monday on business and to arrange for the shipment, of bis household goods to Corvallis. . Miss Myrtle Shonkwiler re turned to Portland Sunday after a few days' visit with Corvallis friends. Mr. and Mrs. W. t D. DeVar ney accompanied by Mrs. t. (J Irwin of Portland, spent Saturday in Corvallis. Bush Davis came up from Port land Saturday evening for a day's visit at home. Dr. Lowe, the oculist, is ' now at Hotel Corvallis to remain until Wednesday night. Hon. A. M. Taylor, mayor of Bellfountain, passed through town yesteiday, enroute to Pendleton, on a business trip. Mrs. Prudence Chipman went to Newport Monday to spend a few days with the family of Mr. Taft and other friends. After a prolonged stay in Cor vallis with her sister, Mrs. J. L. Jones, Mrs, Bay Rickard and chil d.en returned to the farm yesterday Mr. Rickard has been in ill health. The losses so far on farms by reason of the late high water is mainly confined t fences, many of which were carried away by the freshets, and the rebuilding is now in progress. The prevailing weath er is fayorable for the purpose. R. H. Colbert & Sjn are fin ishing a number of cases for the ne v store room of J. M. Nolan & Son. One of them is 3 1-2 by 51-2 feet, one 3 by 6 feet and a third is 6 by 14 feet. One has solid sliding doors while the others are to have glass fronts. These cases'are manufact ured from quarter-sawed oak and are "very creditable - samples of Colbert & Son's workmanship. Miss Ethel Linville left at noon for Baker City, where at the home of her sister, Mrs. W. L. Patterson' she will be married to W. H. Weeks, of LaGrande. Very many friends in this city regret her de parture, but earnestly wish her bon voyage. Both are former OAC students. Mrs. Alex Campbell returned to Siletz Monday after a brief stay at her home in Corvallis. She had been caring for her mother. M rs. Kisor, since the latter received a stroke of paralysis some weeks ago at Siletz, but was .compelled to abandon her post temporarily on account of illness. Mrs. Kisor seems improved at times, but it is believed that, she is nevertheless on the decline. Work on the Woman's build ing at the college is seriously de layed by failure of the state to pro vide funds for the contractor. Two months work daring November, December and January are unpaid for and the purchase ot material is held back for the lack of money. About half a dozen men are at work under the direction of Contractor Snook, but only slight advance can be made. The situation is em barrassing and is likely to result in the failure to get the buildiog ready for the opening of school next September. - The legislature is likely to pro vide for resumption of the $300 household exemption that used to be allowed in assessments. Back in the fifties a law permitting such exemptions was passed, and it re mained in effect until repealed a few years ago. Then it was reenact ed, but was decided to be uncon stitutional, An enabling act is now pending in the legislature for an amendment to the constitution, which 'if it passes, will be submitted to the people for ratification at the next election. The old . law per mitted householders an exemption of $300 and was designed to aid heads of families who iu the eaily days of Oregon at least were con sidered deserving of such a' conces sion for their greater value j to the country. If the estimate of their worth has changed- since that time it will become evident if the amend ment is submitted as now planned. It is worthy of note that E. R. Bry son of this city raised the question and advised the Benton county court of the unconstitutionality of the law before the matter went to the supreme court. - Dr. Lowe, the optician, now pt'Hotel Corvallis," has been coming to this city for over 16 years. He, leaves Wednesday night. ' Frank Lane and Joseph Pat terson are in Eugene and are ex pected to arrive in Corvallis in a tew days. Taylor Porter has been afflict ed for some time with a form of lagrippe and ' yesterday consented to have a physician. Dr. Lowe, the oculist, is not a spectacle peddler, he does not go from house to house, he merely uses glasses as an adjunct to his business. For Rheumatic Sufferers. The quick relief from pain afforded by ap plying Chamberlain's Pain Balm makes it a. favorite with sufferers from rheumatism, sciatica, lame back, lumbago, and deep seated and muscular pains. For sale by Graham & Wortham. After a ten days' visit with his parents, Elmer Wills returned to Portland yesterday to resume his duties as fireman for the Southern Pacific. W. F. Gay and family have arrived from Tipton, Iowa, and are to locate in Corvallis. They are visiting relatives at Shedds pending the arrival of their house hold goods. Dr. Pernot is having the maple trees about his residence cut down. They are not in a thrifty condition and it is deemed advisable to sup plant them with a more ornamental variety. An investigation of the O R- ' & N. dock at this place since the water went down sufficiently dis closes considerable damage to the driveway leading to the lower floor. Much repairing will be necessary before laden vehicles can venture upon the incline. Among the changes in busi r ess locations to be made ' this spring is the removal of Small's confectionery and cigar store to the rooms now occupied by the Com mercial restaurant, Up to this time there has been no arrange ment for a tenant for the White horn rooms now occupied by Mr.. Small, Among the special taxes levied this spring is one for io mills in." Bellfountain. The proceeds go to the erection of a school house which it is estimated will cost fnrnisbed, $3,000 to $4,000. It is to have tSree rooms, and will bz one of the mot pretentious school houses in the county outside of Corvallis andL Philomath. They say that all signs point to an early spring. The ground hog failed to see bis shadow, and there is an'early Easter, two signs that used to be considered a dead shot on a forward spring. Oc casional Oregon robins have been seen of late, and this is counted as an indication. The Oregon robin -differs from the robin redbreast in that it has brighter colors and wears a black ring around its neck ter minating very close to the breasu OAC basket ball men ad ministered; a decisive defeat to the Friendly team of Eugene, Sat urday night. The score was 63 to 6, The game was played in tbe presence of a larje crowd and was only interesting because oi the bril liant play of the local players. They are to play a return game with the State University team i n the Armory Thursday night. In a game two weeks ago, the OA Q men defeated the State University team at Eugene in a score of 41 to 18. Statesman: The Oregon Ag ricultural College experiment st altera at Corvallis has just issued a most instructive bulletin on the subject of walnut culture in Oreg- j on, the author being C. I. Lewis profssor of horticulture at - that in stitution. Professor Lewis came to Oregon early last summer to assume his duties thete -and made his first appearance before an Ore gon assemblage at the mid-summei meeting of the Oregon State Hor ticultural Society and cherry fair at Salem in July. He made a m st favorable impression then and since has covered the state most thoroughly in his official capacity. He learned that there was need for information concern ing the walnut, and he commenced a tour of the walnut growing sec tions of the state for the purpose of making the industry a study and giving his conclusions to the public. The bulletin is the resnlt of his labor in that respect. It is valuable in many respects, being illustrated with suitable pictures of walnut groves, trees and nuts of different varieties, and also shows different systems of budding and grafting. "What to.
