A for sale by Oregon is tho most northwesterly State in the Union, boing situated between the forty-second and forty-sixth degrees of northern latitudo. It is bounded on the East by Idaho, on tho West by tho Pacific Ocean, on the North by Columbia river, and on the South by California and Neva da. It extends, on an average, lor 350 miles liist ami West, and for 275 miles North and South, and contains05,274 square miles, with an urea of about 60,000,(XX) of acres. GRATUITOUSLY To any persons who will engage to frame it in a suitable manner. White Prince and Gen. 1'lury aro now stand ing at Salenuand Albany alternately, and Pride of Perche is at Ashland. Mr. Myer intends to be present at the next State Fair in Salem with sev eral of his full-blooded Perchcrons and also with a number of Alderny or Jer sey cattle, which he has imported at considerable expense and which ho se lected himself when ho visited the At lantic States in 1872. He states that the Alderny or Jersey cows are noted iu Europe and tho East as being tho best adapted for dairy purposes, as they givo unusually great quantities of rich, cream-producing milk and that a marked improvement will result by breeding with Alderny bulls to lhe common cows of Oregon. ———-4 ♦ » ■ —■ B ogus M oney R olls .—Ever since the discovery of the counterfeiters in Southern Oregon, complaints have been mado of tho bogus half dollars which uro done up at intervals in the twcHty-dollar rolls. A worse “trick on travelers” than this, however, is the wrapping of lead pipe in paper the length of a t weuty-dollar roll and pass ing it us the genuine article. We have it from indisputable authority that this practice is now being carried on in Portland, and that lead pipe rolls, representing $100, were recently passed on one of our citizens. Tho case is being inquired into and the guilty ones will probably be brought to jus tice. Till then, however, it will be just as well as not for our citizens to examine all their rolls—newspapers especially, as bankruptcy might result from receiving one of them. The Portland tricksters are said to be more greedy than their confreres in San Francisco who some time ago played the same game by putting a half dol lar at each end of the lead, for they do not put any money in at all, leav ing nothing but tho bare pipe in the paper.— Standard. toned. doiied for ai quire slenderness. Mrs. Swiashelm’s much ridiculed eherniloon is in demand, and garments made in this way tire sold at the various furnishing shops and pat terns of it pass eagerly from hand to baud among lady ft ¡ends. Some ladies have had regular stage tights made in thick webbing, and over these they wear nothing but the outer dress, underskirts being simulated by pleated rutiles of white muslin, sewn to the edge of the dress, which is then tied back till, the woman within is shackled almost like a convict in a chain gang. i No more uncomfortable fashion ever was devised, for not only are tho i limbs confined by the binding dress, but the wearer must constantly con cern herself about the condition of the bodice, that portion being in in cessant danger of turning itself up behind, wrong side out, like an um brella in a windstorm. The desired effect of youthful slenderness is gen erally obtained by the “eel-skin,” but at a good deal of sacrifice ot personal I ease. From o. Faris 1 A fter. C urious C rops in G ermany .—A corrc.-pondcnt writing from Nurem berg says forest trees arc so extensive ly raised in Germany that they aro one of the most common crops in that country. Tho trees are planted in rows as straight as those of a corn field. Ho says: “There is scarcely any wood at all in Germany but what is thus cultivated. The kind is in many places so poor that it cannot bo tilled every year ; so that by taking a number of years to raise a crop of trees the occupants effect the double puipose of supplying themselves with wood and of getting at the end of time, fallow ground again. One can see pine tree fields of all ages, some of little trees of one or two years growth, and others with large ones ready lor the ax.” The farmers of Northern Bavaria go extensively into fish raising, collecting the water from marshy places and drained land into fi'h ponds. Many farmers in this way realize as much from their water as their land crop. Those of our farmers who are troubled with an excess of water might turn it to account by tak ing from their German brethren. K eep Y our A greements .—Ono reason why many people do not get along in the world is because they can not bo depended upon. They do not keep their agreements. When they aro weighed in the balance of actual affairs they arc too often found want ing. They are seldom on lime. Tho workman who is always on hand at tho appointed time and place, and does his work according to agreement, is sure to get along. To a young me chanic, starling in life, the habit of punctuality is worth more than a thou sand dollars cash capital—although a thousand dollars is not apt to bo despised. Tho trustworthiness of the faithful workman produces money, but the untrustworthiness of tho uufaith- ful one causes him to lose money. This is an everlasting principle. He who would be permanently prosperous must keep his engagements. remarked the driver, “chin music can't get up a mule. If you take so Warned much interest in the case, a*pose you get down and help a little.” The crowd rushed to the work at once. Major Laneen got hold of his head, Long Brown sat on his flank, and Jack Magee got hold pf his fore head. A*number of other prominent citizens got round the edge of the an- imal and took hold. “Now, boys, we’ll lift him up; so heave to;” and they made a mighty effort to put him on his pins, The mule rose like an insurrection of blacks in Louisiana, and when he let his hind leg out it put Long Brown «lap up against the back steps of the Interna tional Hotel. Then it tried to turn a hand-spring, and the fore-hoof found a hiding place in the diaphragm of Magee and his gulp of dissatisfaction made the boys along the street laugh with delight. The great aim of the parties who had the mule was now to hold him down. He was changed from a pass ive to an aggressive mule in a twink ling. Like the sea in a calm, it was placid and dormant, but the breath of the tempest made it aggressive and all-devouring. The sweep of its hind leg commanded the respect of all who saw’ it. The strokes of its hoof fell on the cart like the shock of the ocean’s billows upou the rocks. The cart be gan to succumb and dissolve into kin dling-wood and toothpicks. The har ness began to fly and one after another the fragments went kiting. There was good stock in that mule, but the stockholders began to drop at Chariot. The mule flutig off its parasites, and, raising with a snort, shot for the hills. “I know’d all de time dat you couldn’t hold dat mule,” remarked a Jamaica negro to the crowd, which slowly dis persed, leaving tho owner to gather up the fragments of his cart and harness. S even G ood M axims .—Have tho courage to do without that which you do not need, however much your eyes covet it.

It can pula telegraph under the sea and cover the land with a network of wires as with a spider’s web. It can build railroads and bridge oceans. It can buy houses and lands and every material advan tage ; but here its power stops. It cannot purchase goodness, or justice, or gentleness, or patience, or love, or true friendship. It cannot mako char* acter stronger or life sweeter. It can say to the minister, 1 will feed you and clothe you while you are making men better, and to the teacher, I will take care of you while you are mak ing men wiser, but it can do nothing without the brain of wisdom or the heart of goodness. It can build rail roads, but it cannot build men. T he Government began the issuing of postal cards with some misgivings, but tho result of what was looked upon by some as an experiment has been most satisfactory. Beginning in 1873 with 1(10,000,000 cards, the issue has increased year by year at the rate of about 1,500,000 until now, when it is estimated that ISO 000,000 will bo needed for tho year beginning July 1st next.
