This bill provides that any surveyed lands of California, Ore gon and Washington Territory, not CALIFORNIA ST., reserved, and valuable chl< fly for tim ber and unfit for cultivation, and Jacksonville, Oregon which have not been offered for sale, may be sold in quantities not exceed ing 1G0 acres to any one person or as IS IN RECEIPT AND KEEPS CON- sociation at a minimum price of $2.50 1 stantlv <>n hand a lull and first-class as per acre; and that lands chiefly valu sortment of able for stone may be sold on the I same terms. Nothing in this act is to GROCERIES, impair any buna Ji de claim under any United States law, or authorize the LADIES & GENTS’ FURNISHING GOODS sale of any mining claim or mineral I lands, or interfere with the rights of ditch owners. Any person desiring to CIGARS, TOBACCOS, buy such lands is to make very much such an application and proof as to the DRY-GOODS, CLOTHING, character of the lands and its being va cant, etc., as in the ease of mining land purchases. He is required to PIPES, subscribe to a stringent oath that he buys for his own use and not for any GLASSWARE, CROCKERY, CUTLERY, other person. A provision Is made lor hearing all adverse claimants. NOTIONS, Other sections of the bill make it un lawful to cut or destroy any timber on NUTS, CANDIES, FIGS, public lands with an intent to export or dispose of it, under a penalty of a fine not less than $100 nor more than STATIONERY, $1,000; but permission is given any miner or agriculturist to take such Provisions of Every Kind, timber as is necessary in the ordinary working of his mining claim, or pre paring his land fur tillage, or in sup port of his improvements.

Take the country through, and more is used up by neglect ami abuse than by actual service. Another point on which we may be well sensitive is that farmers are not particular epoug+t in learning how to use implements aftei they are purchased. Anybody can use a thing that will almost go alone, but when repairs and a better ope- operator is required, many lay them aside and ortler new ones. To illus trate: One of the first reapers owned iu this vicinity was in use after other farmers, who did not buy as soon, with less acres to cut each year, had worn out their second ones. It mere ly belonged to a uian who would make things work, and continued to do good work with it until “extras” to replace the parts worn out could no longer be obtained. The same individual con- structed a horse fork before patented ones were known. It was meiely a large fork made by a blacksmith, with a lifting rope attached near the fork, anil a cord attached near the end ol the handle. In his hands this rude imple ment was very effective until better ones could be obtained. I have known machines sol«l for a mere trifle to do better work in new hands than the new ones purchased to take their plac es. The fault lies not so much in the amount of the farm machinery made ae the manner in which it used. While it is always tho reverse of economy to buy what ¡9 not actually needed, this is especially true of expensive machin ery. It is difficult to tell which error is oftenest committed, buying too largely (^ implements, or getting along alter a Tashion without such as are really necessary to profitable farming. —Husbandman. i How W omen H ide their M oney . —The ctwlotis ways women have of hid ing their money are shown by the Cin cinnati Commercial. That paper sayd “Mrs. Hansen put $30 in the oveu of her stove one night to keep It safe. Next morning after breakfast the na tional debt had been reduced just that much. A student of the curious would find it interesting to note the place« the women hhl# their money. One excellent ar.d frugal dame used to tuck her little savings away under a corner of her carpet. The tiny roll of green backs grew fatter in the course of a year or two, when the day after it counted $250 the house took Are, and burned to the ground, anil again tha national debt was diminished by a lit tle roll of woman’s pin money. There was that other careful lady, too, who used sometimes to hide her diamond rings between two tea-cups in Hu» kitchen cupboard^ sometimes behind a certain brick in tiie cellar, and again under the lining of an old hat. She had divers other places of safety for her precious things, and about every three months would fancy she had been robbed, and the house would be turned inside out and all therein tie made uncomfortable until the missing gems would be found carefully tucked away in the folds of tho bottom towel of the pile in the left baud corner of the lower drawer in the clothes-press at the end of the drawing-room. T he S terling M ine .—By a letter received from Southern Oregon, tho Oregonian learns that the Sterling mine is being worked to good advan tage, and that the prospect is favorable. Eighteen hundred inches of water are running in the ditch, and it is believed by the superintenduntof the mine that there will be water enough to work with a full head for two pipes until the first of August. When the piping commenced, about ten weeks ago, a bed of boulders was struck which threatened to retard the work. This difficulty has been surmounted by tho boulder-bed giving out, and the pipes are now playing on a bank of splen did gravel with a bedrock, which min ers pronounce very promising. Hon. D. P. Thompson, principal owner in the mine, a short time ago sent out a derrick to handle the boulders, but it is no\v doubtful whether it will bo needed. The dump for the tailings in thia mine will increase as the the work proceeds, and will in a short lime-lie sufficient to carry away all the debris that passes through the flumes« P ostal A bsurdities . — There are some very queer things about our BEDSTEADS, I’ost Oilice regulations, Ta ko the postal-card, for instance, as pointed BUREAUS, TABLES. out by our cotemporaries, If a man JAMES S.
