COI N r*Y JOI KVALIKM.
The Corvallis Gazette says of late
years there has been an effort on the
part of the proprietors of some of the
large and influential newspapers in
the great commercial centres, to stran­
gle the country press, and in many
instances they have succeeded. It is
a well established fact that no city pa­
per will assist in building up an inte­
rior town. What are the Portland pa­
pers, to-ilav, doing to build up Corval­
lis, or any other interior town in thi« ¡
State. And what have they been do­
ing in this direction for the past ten
years ? Lot any reflecting man think
of this for a few moments, seriously,
and we think he will find strong rea­
sons for supporting his local paper.
The following from the San Francis­
co Figaro of the 3d inst., with change
of names, is so applicable and sensible,
that we give the article entire, as fol­
lows:
“Since writing a paragraph on this
subject, (Country Journalism,) which
appears elsewhere, we have read an
article on the same subject in this
morning’s ('In oniric.
The lesson
which it seeks to draw from the death
of th<‘ Benicia Tribune seems to be that
since the establishment of railroads, a
paper in a country town is unneces­
sary.
Inferentially the inhabitants
ought to sub«crilie for the C/zrozizWc and
let their local organ die. The fact of
the matti-r is that there is not a paper
in San Francisco that will assist in any
way to build up an interior town. On
the other hand, a bright editor proper­
ly sustained by the inhabitants can
make a town. Does any one pretend
to deny that the amusing nonsense
published by Bailey, has had any effect
upon the prosperity of Danbury ? Dan­
bury is known to a great many as the
place where the Danbury Neirs is
published. Not very long ago a man
‘ worth considerable over a million Tn
money and land, pulled a Kansas paper
' out of his pocket, and pointing to the
' head of the column, said : ‘I depend
j entirely on that man to make the prop­
erty I own in this place valuable.’ A
country pap<>r might ho as pleasing to
inhabitants of San Mateo, Jose,
i the
' Grass Valley, Marysville, Placerville,
Los Angeles, or any other interior
town as one tilled with the scandal of
the metro|Milis can lie. The natural
advantages of the surrounding country
afford as pipasing a text as murder in
a dive, or at the latest discoveries of
fraud among city officials. The coun­
try newspaper is a great advertisement
for the town in which it is published
t and it is to the interest of every inhab­
i itant to contribute to its support.
P umpkins for S tock .—The differ­
ent opinions of farmers as to the value
of pumpkin« for milch cows and other
stock, is hplicvod to he the result of
different ways of feeding thorn, by a
correspondent of the Germantown Tel­
egraph. In a hurry to clean a field,
farmers will give their cattle a surfeit
of pumpkins for a day or two, then for
a day or two perhaps none, and thu«
alternate feasts and fasts, and t lien
conclude pumpkins are worthless, The
writer gives regularly, as long they
last, once a day, from one to three
pumpkins per head, never more, and
finds them greatly conducive to the
health of stock, besides greatly increas­
ing the quantity and quality of butter
made.

smith was once grossly insulted and
his character infamously defamed.

by means of law, but to all he re­
plied, “No, I will go to my forge and
there in six months I will have work­

T he J udgment of H olomon .—
Sometimes a go<Kl rule does not work.
Two women came before Aiderman
Dobbs in our village the other day to
settle a dispute ftliout a child. Mrs.
Murphy claimed the Ixiy as her’s,
while Mrs. Ihxilan insisted that it was
her’s. As the Aiderman could not ob­
tain any decisive evidence bearing up­
on the case, it occurred to him to try
the plan once used in a similar case by
Solomon.
He sent out to the kitchen
and got a carving-knife, and then
placing the boy on the desk, he said to
the woman, while lie sharpeneii the
knife on his boot, “I’m going to cut
this yer youngster in half and let Mrs.
Murphy take the body, while Mrs.
Doolan goes home with the legs.” It
was a clever idea, hut it failed.
Mrs.
Murphy stepped up to him, and doub­
ling up a fist that looked like an un­
derdone leg of mutton, she shook it
close to his nose and said, “Ef ye do
ye shpalpeen oi’ll murther ye with me
own hand.” Mr-. Doolan seized him by
the hair, threw him to the ground and
exclaimed while she brandished the
knife over his prostrate body, “Gim me
the legs! Berne soul, oi’ve a mind
to kill ye and ate ye.” Then Squire
Dobbs adjourned the case, and while
Mrs. Doolan retired with the boy, he
went out to hunt up a Bible commen­
tary in order to ascertain if there was
not something about Solomon’s pro­
ceedings that he did not understand.
—Danbury Neics.
As a matter of information we pub­
lish the following section of the laws
of the State of Oregon :
Sec. 566. If any person shall mali­
ciously or wantonly kill, wound, dis­
figure or injure any animal, the prop­
erty, of another, or shall wilfully ad­
minister any poison to any such ani­
mal, or shall maliciously expose any
poison with the intent that the same
shall he taken by any such animal, or
shall maliciously or wantonly, in any
manner or by any means, not other­
wise particularly specified in this chap­
ter, destroy or injure any personal
property of another, such persons, up­
on conviction thereof, shall be punish­
ed by imprisonment in the Peniten­
tiary’ not less than six months nor
more than three years, or by imprison­
ment in the county jail not less than
thriMi months nor more than one year,
or by fine not less than fifty nor more
than one thousand dollars.
W eights of B oys and G irls .—
Upon the average, lx>ys at birth weigh
a little more and girl« a little less than
7 pounds. For the first twelve years
the two sexes continue nearly equal in
weight, hut beyond that age the boys
acquire a decided preponderance.
Young men of 20 average 135 pounds,
whileyoung women average 110 pounds
each.
Men reach their heaviest
weight at about 40 years of age, when
their average weight will lie about
140 pounds; but women slowly in­
crease in weight until 50 years of age.
Taking the men and women together
their weight at full growth will then
average from 108 to 150 pounds, and
woman from 80 to 130. The averago
weight of humanity all over the world,
taking all ages and conditions, work­
ing men and women and people with­
out occupation, black and white, boys,
girls, and babies, Is very nearly 100

D ecimal C oin .—Senator Jones of
Nevada has a bill pending in tho
House, from last session of Congress,
providing for the coinage of twenty-
cent pieces, to take the place of the
present quarter-dollars. Its passage
will reduce our coiitige to a complete
decimal scries, and will do away with
the broken change of quarters and
“hits” which is such a nuisance on
this coast. It will save the consumer
of “bit” g(iods the twenty per cent,
tax which he now pays in making
change—the difference between ten
cents and twelve-and-a-half.
We
have no doubt that the greater con­
venience of the uniform currency will
also compensate the majority of deal­
ers for the loss of the per cent, they
now make in changing quarters to get
a “bit,” and all together it will be gen­
erally considered satisfactory.
E ugene I ngenuity —The Guard
relates that the young men of Eugene
contrive to get over serious difficulties.
It says : “Last evening we came sud­
denly upon a young man kissing a
blooming girl on the na|»e of the neck.
It.was new to us, and we immediate,
ly organized an investigating commit­
tee and ascertained that this is the
very last agony after eating onions for
supper.
