WHEAT-FED PORK.
Recent market reports from
hicago quote corn and wheat at
2 in 5i cents with the latter a
lade in adrance. Corn is scarce
Ind selling at an unusually high
rice, which is causing efforts to be
le throughout the Middle West
toward substituting wheat for corn
fas food for hogs. Some expe i-
ments made in that section are
said to show the farmer a return,
at the present market . price ol
hogs, of $1.30 per bushel. True
enough, pork is bringing a fancy
price at present, but such a wide
margin, as is indicated by these
experiments, leaves the farmer
plenty of leeway for changes in
either commodity.
In Oregon, particularly in the
Willamette valley, where little or
no corn is raised, the experiments
be watched with considerable
interest. Pork raising, at present
prices, is a very profitable indus
try in this state and it should be
given more attention.
Daring the 70's the farmers of
Illinois, Iowa, Kansas and Ne
braska were growing corn on such
an extensive scale that the price
fell in many instances below the
cost of production. During that
period a very large proportion of
the crop was sold to Chicago grain
buyers, as at that tims compara
tively little feeding was being
done. This depressed condition
of the corn market caused the
farmers of that section to look
into t he matter with a view to
discovering a remedy 2i.x
found anoerDroiiuctiou of this
commodity
but also discovered
yfTTTat
r by ft
that a higher pneo
mi;ht be had
by feeding their corn to stock.
As a result an increased interest
was soon' shown in hog and cattle
feeding. Many who had given
the subject of stock raising no
consideration at all, soon had a,
few head of hogs or steers about
him which he was feeding for the
market irom his corn crop. In
this manner the farmers were en
abled to get an increased price for
their grain' as the fattened 6tock
were sold .to good advantage.
This also reduced the amount of
corn for shipment to Chicago,
thereby creating a market for the
farmer's furplus corn at an ad
vanced price.
At present quotations, wheat
growing in Oregon is unprofitable.
Our farmers should let foreigners
feed Europe and.turn their atten
tion toward something that will
furnish some adequate remunera
tion for the labor "and capital they
are now investing in an industry
that makes them poorer each year.
With pork at present prices,
wheat can be made to yield from
CO to 75 cents per bushel by feed-
, ing it lo the hoiis. Ihe results of
experiments made by Prof. Fiench
at the Agricultural college last
winter on this line are such as to
: dispel all doubts from the minds
of those who have thought that
, wheat could not be made to pro
duce pork equal in quality to corn
led pork. The fat on these hogs
was very thick and firm in texture
while Ihe lean meat was light in
color and very juicy, which charac
teristics have marked all the re
sults in feeding wheat to pigs thus
' far carried on at the station. In
a bulletin on the subiect of Di'r
feeding Prof. French says, in the
rate of gain produced the results
will, com pare favorably with those
obtained from feeding corn.
.Twelve pounds of gain in live
weight were produced from each
bushel. The hogs sold for Jive
cents per pound gross weight.
;This shows an increase over the
present price of wheat of,20 cents
per bushel. One of these pigs on
July 1st weighed 60 pounds and
six months later, 331 pounds,
showing a gain of 271 pounds.
Reckoning wheat at 45 cents per
. bushel, the cost per pound of gain
in live weight was 3.6 cents or a
profit on the gain in weight of 1.4
cents per pound.
The Oregon farmer is now pay
ing the English 6hip owner 26
cents per bushel for, 'transporting
, his wheat to Liverpool, and then
turns around and buys his meat in
the East, to the price of which is
added the cost of freight charges.
This is a losing game as every
wheat raiser in the Willamette
. -valley can plainly see. Of course
all" the wheat grown in Oregon
-."could not be turned into pork with
profit to the giower: but sulfi-'
cient pork should be raised here
for Pacific coast consumption.
mere is no need ot Duying our
lard, bacon and hams in the East.
These commodities should be
produced at home. '

HOW ABOUT IT?
Speaking of a 2000 ton ship
that sailed recently from England
to the Pacific coast to receive a
cargo of grain for Liverpool, for
which her owners are to be paid
as transportation charges 26 cents
per bushel, the Times has the fol
lowing: If she had been loaded on lierwest hound
trip with a caro of tin plate, the would
have been able to carry back her caro of
w heat at half the price she is to receive, or
13 cents, in which amount the price of
wheat would have been raised to the Ore
gon farmer.
Now Frank let's figure on this a
little and see if your argument
will bear investigation. Two
thousand tons of wheat, or 06,007
bushels, at 38 cents per bushel, is
worth $25,333. Two thousand
tons of tin plate or 4,000,000
pounds at six cents per pound
which is a low price for that, com
modity would be worth $240,000.
According to your theory, the
tanner would save at 13 cents
per bushel for freight charges,
$8,000. Now in order to save this
amount to the Oregon wheat
grower we must buy $240,000
worth of tin for which is paid $25,
333 in wheat, leaving a trade bal
ance of $214,007 which must be
paid in cash while our own tin
plate manufacturers are standing
idle. Where is this $214,007 to
come from?
The Oregon City Courier says:
Rev. lthys OJwynn, a United Brethren
minister, has written a letter dated at Wil
hoit, to Governor Pennoyer in reference to
the pardon from the penitentiary of C. Bur
leigh, aged 72, for raping Glenn.i Mabel
Irish, a little girl, in which he says: "The
people of Lincoln county are highly pleased
with your actiou as far as I can learn. I
have known Mr. Burleiuli since 1S53, and
there is not a blemish on his character."
This meek and lowly sky-pilot;
this disciple of the society for the
encouragement of raping 13 year-
old girls, stands up and runs offjvt-
Ih
he moulhto the effect JIuAt there !
s not-a..MlemrSii oil Burleigh's i

The creed of the denomination to
which Rhys belongs must evi
dently consider the raping of
VOUilg girls as a joke; a sort of'
religions ecstacy, as it were. It
might be well to keep an eye on
"Ilhysie."
Sunday's Kxcursion.
Two hundred aud fifty residents of Al
bany and Corvallis escaped the intense hiat
of the valley last Sunday by taking advan
tage of the Oregon Pacific's $1.50 rate to
Newport. Aud what a jolly crowd they
were! It is seldom, indeed, that so con
genial and pleasant a company of Corvallis
ites are gotten together ou an occasion -of
this kind, aud all who were fortunate
enough to take the trip, enjoyed the going
and coming, quite as well as they did the
surf bathing or a stroll on the be.ich. To
add to the pleasure of the party, the Ma
rine band accompanied the excursion and
discoursed several selections that seemed to
put new life and animation into every pas-
senger on board. At Newport, the boat
was met by the 2nd regiment band, which
has been stationed there during the season,
and a thousand happy faces greeted the
passengers as they alighted from the
steamer and wended their way toward the
dining room of some adjacent hotel, or to
ward the culinary department of some
friendly camp or cottage, whose hospitable
inmates were expected to extend a pressiug
invitation to the new comers to partake of
their Sunday meal. As the train leaves
the. valley at 7:30 p. to. and necessitates
early rising, breakfast is had before one's
appetite has beeu whet, up sufficiently to
do the morning meal that justice due it and
which it is usual to pay it, and in conse
quence, a ravenous desire for food has been
engendered long before the destination is
reached, that takes a wonderful amount of
provender to appease. Peui Abbey, the
genial proprietor of the Bay View house, is
authority for the statement that these Sun
day excursionists have such ravenous appe
tites that lie loses money ou everyone of
them that stops at his place and is think
ing seriously of asking Receiver Clark to
discontinue Sunday trains for the balance
of the summer in order to play partially
even. This, however, Mr. Clark has no
notion of doing, and on next Sunday
another opportunity will be given the beat
oppressed residents of Corvallis to hie away
to the coist and thus escape, for a few
hours, the mighty rays of old Sol, which,
during the past week, he has sent down
with a vengeance as to arouse us to a reali
zation of his migljt. The season is just
now at it hight. .Some tew seasiders have
left for their homes, but each incoming
train brings a goodly number of valley
folk and thus the interest and activity
about Newport has not begun to wane.

THE BARREN FOOT-HILLS
To be Made Excellent Grazing
Lands by the Introduction
of the Flat Pea.
While at the college this week, p Gazette
reporter was shown a sample of the Flat
Pea vine (Lathyrus Sylvesteruf) that was
recently imported to this country from
Gern.any. In gome respects the vine re
sembles the vetch used in many parts of the
state fur fodder; also the pea vine that
grows with a great deal of vigor in the
mountains of the Coast range. The vine in
question, however, is a perennial, and in
that respect differs from any plant which it
resembles. It was propagated by Professor
Wagner, of Germany, who experimented
exteiuively with it on various kinds of soils,
before anything was said of its merits. As
the vine proved such a success in its mother
country, some of the seed was taken to
England where it was sown on the barren
chalk hills of that country. The soil is
very thin in these districts, but the pea
mule a luxuriant growth and promises to
reclaim the entire section to the use and
benefit of the agriculturist. Soon after its
introduction into America, the state of
Michigan established a branch experiment
station on what is familiarly known as the
Jack Pine plains a vast section of that
state upon which no vegetation suitable for
grazing purposes has grown for the pur
pose of determining whether or not the Flat
Pea would grow there successfully, and
their expectations, according to Prof.
French, hava been more than realized.
Reports from the experiment station of that
state show that from 12 to 15 tons have
been grown to the acre. It is also proving
a success in Kansas, as well as in several
other states where it has beeu given a trial.
Three years a;;o Professor French tried to
import some- i f the seed, but it cost 10
per pound, and as a quantity less than three
pounds would not be sold, the matter was
given up for the time from point of econ
omy. While on a visit to the experiment
station at Berkeley, California, some two
years ago. Mr. f rencii touna tlievuo grow
ing there and made arrangements to have
some of the roots sent to him at Corvallis
during .-t'iS 'following winter. They came
ij mail and were planted according to di
tllof five fet
. t.
rections, ltiis year the vino has made a
feet and will yield about a
; quart oi seen. b
nn. li t of seed. It has a vcrv strone root
!,.,! trtnkpfl n. Ii..althv. hnrilv lTrowt.ll. It is
of very much the same composition as clover
aud all kinds of stock do well on it. A
good sized bed of this rare plant is now
growing on the college farm from a couple
tablespoon fuls of seed which Prof- French
received last winter? The plants at this
time are very but?!, but in another season
it is expected that they will attain large
proportions and produce a quantity of seed.
It is said that the vine attains a length of
20 feet in a single season and the plant will
grow for a period of twenty-tire years
from one setting.
As this peculiar vine will thrive in shal
low soils, it is expected to do well ou the
barren foot hills of the Coast rane, where
at present nothing but poverty grass will
grow at all, and that only during the rainy
season. By this means thousands of acres
of land, which at present is almost worth
less, could be converted into paying prop
erty for hay and grazing purposes. By this
means also, much of the land in E .stern
Oregon, where the bunch grass has been
trampled out and thus made practically
valueless, would be reclaimed for the im
mense herds of stock now roaming the
praries of the vast Inland Empire. Prof.
French is of the opinion that he will be able
to get the plant well introduced throughout
the state within the next live years.
Should it prove as much of a success as it
is expected to, the benefits-that will accrue
to the state by its introduction will alone
more than reimburse the goverumeutfor its
outlay iu maintaining the experiment sta
tion duriug the past live years.

The Southern Pacific company announce
that they will issue, effective September 1,
1894, a special tariff on hops in carloads
minimum weight of 12,000 pounds of $1.70
per 100 pouuds from Oregon terminal aud
intermediate points to Missouri river, Mis
sissippi river; Chicago and . points common
therewith; Cincinnati, Detroit and common
points; Pittsburg, Buffalo and common
points; and New York, Boston and Atlan
tic seaboard points. This is nearly 25 per
cent, reduction and will be of great bene
fit to the hop growers of Oregon. . ihe
Southern Pacific company recognize the
fact of the present low prices being offered
for hops, and are willing to help the situa
tion by reducing freight rates.
People seem to forget the fact that Ben
ton county officials are now working under
the salary law aud that all instruments
sent to the recorder for record mast be
accompanied by the cash. Owing to the
leniency of the recorder while working
uuder the fee system many seem of the
opinion that that official can still be "stood
off;" but he can't. The law expressly pro
vides that no instrument shall be deemed
to be of record until the fees for recording
same are fully paid. Recorder Wattera in
forms the Gazette that it is a very common
occurrence for persons to bend in deeds and
mortgages without the cash, and that the
senders no doubt think they will be imme
diately filed and recorded. Iu this they
are mistaken, and those who, since the 1st
of July, have mailed any instrument to the
recorder without also sending the cash, will
find it to their welfare to liquidate without
delay should they wish such instruments
to be on record.
Farewell Party.
Society was awakened Wednesday night
from the lethargy in which it has lain dur
ing the past two months. Will H. Bloss
was to leave town on the morrow for Van
couver, Washington, where he had accepted
a position, aud an informal farewell party
was tendered him by Mrs. Bloss, who -was
ably assisted in the entertainment by mem
bers of Benjamin Harrison Camp, Sous of
Veterans, of which Will was captain.- His
final determination to leave Corvallis was
not made until Tuesday, so that little time
was afforded Mrs. Bloss to arrange for the
alfair, still, for all that, she has reason to
congratulate herself upon her efforts, as it
is seldom that so thoroughly enjoyable a
social event is gweu in this city. On the
lawn south of the residence was spread a
canopy of bunting, from the four corners of
which streamers of flagging were stretched.
Under the canopy aud alung the streamers
Chinese lanterns were hung whose soft light
gave a uleasant effect. About the lawn,
chairs, tables, and rustic seats had been
arranged which added comfort to the hun
dred or more friends who had accepted invi.
tations for the evening. Games and con
versation occupied the guests until 9:30
when ices were served. After refreshments,
while the company were enjoying a march
to the sweet strains of music furnisned by
an orchestra inside the house, Captain Bioss
was called under the canopy by Mr. Bert
Van Cleve aud in a few words presented
with a gold chain and charm in behalf of the
members of Beuj. Harrison Camp, Sons of
Veterans. In a few well-chosen words Mr.
Bloss accepted the gift, and cordially thank
ed the donors for their expression of frater
nity and good will. At a late hour the
company departed feeling deeply indebted
to their charming hostass for an enjoyable
evening. In the departure of Mr. Bloss
from among us, Corvallis has lost a desira
ble citizen; the football team of the O. A.
C. a coacher of exceptional ability, and
the Sous of Veterans an earnest and able
worker. In his new field of labor the Ga
zette wishes him unbounded success.
A Good Thing to Keep at Hand.

Some years ago we were very much sub

now when we feel any of the symptoms that
usually nifcede that ailment, such as sickness
at the stomach, diarrhoea, etc., we become
scary. We have found Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy the very

always keep it about. We are not writing

Yaquina Collectorship.
Yesterday's dispatches from Washington
state that the senate adjourned without
having coufirmed the appointment of James
Ball, as collector of customs at the port of
Yaquina. This appointment was made by
the president several months ago, but for
some unaccountable reason has hung fire
ever tince aud It A. Bensell is still holding
the fort against all comers.
Later. The last official act of the presi
dent before leaving for Gray Gables was the
consideration of the Yaquina collectorship,
when he reappointed James Ball. The sen
ate having previously adjourned, a coutirm
ation of the appointment by that body will
be unnecessary, and Mr. Ball will probably
assume the duties of the office as soon as his
official bond and oath of ollice can be tiled
and approved by the proper authorities,
This was one of the Markley-Murphy
selections, aud naturally John is feeling
jubilant over the result, even though the
matter was a long time iu being finally
settled.

An Unpatented Sleep Disturber.-
Some one down our way owns a cow,
which, unfortunately for those living in the
vicinity, is troubled with a serious attack
of insomnia. She has a deep bass voice
and evidently contemplates an early en
gagement with some comic opera troupe,
and has gone into active training with an
assiduity worthy of a better cause. These
insomuious attacks usually come on between
the hours of four and eight in the morning,
which time seems to be set apart for dress
rehearsal, although not infrequently the
coarse, raspy tones of her deep, gutteral
voice may be heaid as she bawls right iu
the middle of the ni&ht. Whenever the
cow is troubled with insomnia the whole
neighborhood cease their morning nap just
out of sympathy, as it were, for the poor
old brute. Unless her owner takes her to
the country, where fresh air and mountain
scenery are more plentiful than on the
block just north of the court house, and
where neighbors are extremely scarce, this
cow may get insomnia in a malignant form.
It would be a pity to have her young life
cut off suddenly in the prime of cowhood.but
it is almost impossible to save a cow from
the ravages of insomnia if kept in a thickly
populated commuuity, especially when the
disease affects its victim daring those
hours of the night when the neighbors are
putting in their best efforts to drive away
the cares of the day in refreshing sleep.
A Racking Cough
Cured by Ayer's Cherry Pectoral.
Mrs. r. D. Hall, 217 Genesee St.,

" Ove.- thirty years npro, I remember
hearing my father desrrilio tin; wonder
ful curativo effects of Ayer's Cherry
Pectoral. During a recent atta.ek of La
Grippe, vliieh fissuined the form of a
catarrh, soreness of the lungs, accom
panied by an iiravatiii; cough, I
used various remedies and prescriptions.
7hile some of these medicines partially
alleviated the roughing during the day,
none of them afforded me any relief from
that spasmodic action of the lungs which
would seize me the moment T attempted
to lie down at ni.sht. After ten or twelve
such nights, I was
EJearty In Despair,

in my easy chair, and procure what
sleep I could in that way. It then oc
curred to me that I had a bottle of

MYSTERIES!
The Nervous System the Seoi
of Life and Mind. Recent
Wonderful Discoveries.
No mystery has ever compared with that of
human life. It lias been the leading subject
of professional research and study in all uses.
But notwithstanding this fact it is not gener
ally Known
that the seat
of life is loca
ted in the up
per part of t lie
spinal cord,
near the base
of the brain,
and so sensi
tive is this
portion of the
nervous sys
tem that even
the prick of a
needle will
cause instant
death.
Rseent discoveries hare demonstrated that
alltheorsansof tho body are under the con
trol of tho nerve centers, located In or near
t he b:tse of the brain, and that when these are
deranseJ the orsans which they supply with
nerve liuicl are also deranged. When It is re
membered that a serious injury to the spinal
cord will cause pVralysis of the body below
the injured point, because the nerve force is
prevented by the injury from reaching the
paralyzed portion, it wilf be understood how
the derangement of the nerve centers will
cause the derangement of the various organs
which they supply with nerve force.
Two-thirds of chronic diseases are due to
the imperfect action of the nerve centers at
the base of the brain, not from a derange
ment primarily originating In the organ it
self. The great mistake of physicians in
treating these diseases is that they treat the
organ rather than the nerve centers which
are the cause of the trouble.
Dr. Franklin Miles, the celebrated spe
cialist.has profoundly studied this subject rot
over 20 years, and has made many important
discoveries In connection with it, chief among
them being the facts contained in the above
statement, and that the ordinary methods of
treatment are wrong. All headache, dizzi
ness, dullness, confusion,, pressure, blues,
mania, melancholy, insanity, epilepsy, St.
Vitus dance, etc., are nervous diseases no
matter how caused. The wonderful success of
Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine is due to the
fact that It Is based on the foregoing principle.
