Alfrtd Luelling, who in the 'CD's was county ciers 01 vvasnington county, and wnn also resided at Greenville in the early day, died at Oregon City last week. Many old pioneers here remember htm, Lu elling was one of the first to start a nurBtry in Oregon. He came to the coaBt in 1857, and waa 72 years of age. 1 ears ago a brother vtsitsd htm while he lived here, and em cided in a grove near the cemetery L'eceased a son was a ho county clerk here, and the late J. W. Mor gan was his deputy. Emile Hering, the 17 year old son ct llie liasion sawmill man was drowned Monday morning about 8:00 o'clock, in tbe Callahan k Hering mill pond, about 4 miles above Gaston. Several witnessed the young man when he fell into the water, but there was no boat bandy and by the time they were at the place whore he fell in, tbe body had sunk .for the luut time. There was nothing handy and the rescue work was therefore hindered. The body waa recovered three hours after the drowning, and the funeral took plaeeTuesday. Coroner Brown was notified, but did not think an inquest necessary, as there were witnesses to the death. M8. Ada Gran, a widow, of Sand , pit, near Sherwood, still insists ' that some rarcal is trying tomb1 ter, and exhibits a threatening let- j ter, demanding that she place' money on the railroad track near her rrsidt nee. 8he has her suipic-1 ions as to whom the party is, but! othtr than ihe letter, has no evi dence that would warrant an ar rest. Mrs. Gran slateo that she ii disraiisfied with the way the of ficers handled the case, and says that Roberta and Lreen did not wait long enough or they would have caught tbe intending thief. The officers still think that Mrs jiran is somewhat excited, but even if she is right, there is not sufficient evidoiu e, as yet, to cause ihe iesue of a warrant.

Tatniesie, of this citv, is the first in the county to avail himself of the parsRite, a "special iatrogenic bacteria," furnished by the I . S. Dept. or Agriculture, to ufo with tha sowing of alfalfa. This parasite is necessary lor tbe growth of this forage plant, and the germs are sent free to any one making ap plication to the department. The germ draws the nitrogen, so ne8 eary for the plant, as nitrogen that is the large per cent, of its growth in fact it is the real feeder. hue the state chemists advise sowing alfalfa in the Spring, the government advises sowing in the rail, and this Dr. Tamieeie has done, on his ranch north of town. Tho government will send pack ages of the germ free, with direc tions, and one package will inocu late 5 acres. , The germ is placed in, water, and in this the Bred is dipped before sowing, or, in case tbe seed is already sown, it can be mixed with earth after the solution is made, the water drained off, the earth dried, nnd then town on thb field. An experiment recently showt d that where the solution was not used and oOO pounds of alfalfa were grown, a liki area, with the use of the germ, produced C.OOO pounds. The germ helps to make the plant take deeper root, and this is the life and strength of this for age plant. Dr. Tamiesie has found in his experiment that alfalfa sown later, by two weeks, where the solu tion was used, gave a better growth than the older sowing did, where it was not used. He believea that the government is right about Fall sowing, as the plant has a moist soil for the roots to penetrate, and alfalfa must go down from C to 12 feet to make a success; should be mowed when six inches high, when first coming up, to force the roots downward. The plant must not be sown on land subject to overflow, or it will water-kill, and sheep and goats must not be pastured on the meadow. 1 he crop will stand 20 years wiihout chaugo, and is a great producer, making the nnest dairy feed imaginable, Dr. Tamiesie pre dicts that when aitaila is proved a success, which it wilt be later, land will be worth $100 per acre, in this section.
