A progress- ive farmer says the most simple way to measure land is to take two slats about six feet long, sharpen one end of each, lay them upon a floor like a pair of open compasses, so that the points shall be exactly five feet six inches apart; now nail the other two ends together and a piece across tin* middle, so that it will look like a let- ter A, and the measure is finished. To measure land, place one point at the starting place and the other also on the ground in a straight line for designation; stand alongside of the machine with one hand on top of it take one step forward, tip up the point that is behind, swing it around (from you) on the other point and set it in the line also. A person in this manner can measure correctly as fast as he can walk. Three spaces make a rod—walk straight without slopping, count the spaces, these by three, and you have the rods. F or E xhibition .—Trte call of th« Industrial Committee for samples of grains, grapes, etc., of Oregon, offers a fine opportunity for farmers of Ore gon to select and forward the «ample* free of charge to the Industrial Exhi bition to open at Sin Francisco on the 12th.of August, and in no way can the growth of tbe-e cereals and fruits be better represented to the emigrant and others there, than by this easy and natural method. Some farmers have responded, but nothing like an adequate supply for this purpose his been sent in by the farmers. Here la a chance to benefit the State an i l elp the State and help the Exhibition. Bring in your samples early, gentle men, and do your duty to your State. I As a sample for almost any farmer’s action in this matter, we may men tion the example of David D Pretty man, of Salem, who sent on July 11th several fine samples of grains and grapes for this purpose, among which is the Centennial wheat which beat the world at Philadelphia; the white Aus tralian wheat, sickle o*.:«, with heads eighteen inches, timothy with eleven inch heads, native grapes, etc. AU these samples* were grown in Polk county, three miles from S item. Now let other farmers send in products, as this is a good year to .«how our Oregon productions in California, where the drouth has been severe and deprive them of the opportunity of produiog the best samples. There are hundreds of farmers in Oregon who might con tribute one or more samples of die grains and grapes of Oreg m and thus contribute something in this good cau-e.

C hecking a N ightmare —A Chi nese physician says that in a case of nightmare, instead of awakening the sleeper by bringing a light, you should “bite his toe.” This is a very simple remedy—at least Mrs. Poppleton (bought so, for she treasured up the recipe in one of the chambers of her memory, and the other night when Popp^ton was seized with a two-horse p >wer nightmare, seventeen hands high, and in a inuffl-d and a ghostly voice muttered, ‘•Owhowholi! (Jgh- ughughuhu!” as if a cirrus elephant was performing tricks upon his stom ach, she quickly slid to the foot of the bed, and was in the act of seizing his big toe in her teeth when the dreamer gave a vigorous kick, and Mrs. Popple ton was shot over the tail-board of the bed on the floor, with four teeth half way down her throat. The noise awakened Poppleton, and hearing his wife screaming at the rate of forty knotsan hour, lie thought no less then ten masked burglars were in the room and, without striking a light, he seized a’chair and wildly struck right and left over the room, nearly brain ing Mrs. Poppleton before he discover ed the true situation of affairs.
