AMrr All.
The Ajiples nro ripo in tho orchard',
The work of tho reaper is done,
And the golden woodlands redden
In the light of tho dying riiii.
At the cottage door the gntntlsiro
Hits pale in his easy chair,
While the gentle wind of the twilight
I'lnys with his silver hair,
A wouiaii is kneeling beside him
A lair yntiuir form is pressed,
In tho llrst wild passion of sorrow,
Against his aged breast.

Then tho grnndsiro speaks in a whisper,
"The end no man can see ;
lint we give hinnto his country,
And wo give our prayers to Thee."
Hut thu grnudsire's chair is empty ;
The cottage is dark and still ;
There's a nameless grnvo on the battle
Held And u new one under tho hill.
And a nallid tearless woman
Hy tno cold hearth sits alone,
And thu old clock in thu corner
Ticks on with a steady drone.

Tlio llrst person I mot wiih "Sut," nt-
tor crossing tho Hilwnssee, "weaving
nnd moving along" in his usual, ram

at oucu satisfied mo tlmt something
was wrong. Ho had been sick whiji
ped in u free light, or was just out
growing ouo of his big drunks. Hut
upon this point I was soon enlightened.
"Why, Sut, what's the matter?"
"Heap's wrong; durii mu skin if I

"How is it, Sut ; have you been bent

"Nnra one, that can't bo did in theso

toll you ; but I swar I'm ashamed

In the 7th mbnth Noah's nrk touched

Amazing Innocence. Tho editor
of tho Hoscburg JSivtlyn is about to
start out on a collection tour, nnd ho
thus admonishes delinquent subscribers
to prcparo to rcccivo him :
Tho 'fighting editor" of tho Enttign
is on tho war pntli ; look out for him,
yo denizons of tho northern part of tho
county, nnd assail him furiously witli
(2 SO nieces. This is the easiest way
you will find to vanquish him.
We don't think it's pro-eminontly cute
to sound tho trumpet buforo you in that
way when you're going ont a dunning.
It just gives 'em notico to keep out of
tho way. You should keep mum, my
innocent Oregonian boy, and drop
down on 'em before they know it. Go
ing on "tho war path" indeed ! You'ro a
n protty pieco of simplicity to go upon a
" war path !" After tolling your vic
tims you'ro a coming right along for
'cm; do you expect 'em to bo green
enough to stay and bo scalped ? You'll
nover do to run a newspaper in Oregon
my young friend. You might rustlo
through in a pious community, on a
mild stylo of tempernuco journal, or a
Sunday School periodical, or something
of that sort, but Oregon isn't your field.
Go nhead, though, on your "war path,"
and we'll bet you a baskot of " Green
Soal" you don't enpturo $10, and that
will bo in greenbacks. Good-bye in

Anim Ats. Cows at pasture must not
laok puro nnd fresh water stagnant
pools are n poor sonrco of supply. No
stock ought to bo forced to drink front
thorn, and, least of nil, milch cows.
Calves nro better pastured by them
selves than with other stock. Young
horses often get tho bad habit of run
ning after, and striking them, if thoy
feed together. An old horso will tako
caro of himself among cows, but colts,
ono or two years old, nro heedless, and,
if postured with cntttle,m!sybohurtby
their horns, without nny real malico
on tho part of cows. Working stock
should uot lio over night in tho pasture.
It is very well for them to have n few
hours, in which to graze, during somo
pnrt of tho day, but both cattlo nnd
horscs'work better on good hay, and
some provender, corn nnd oats, ryc
Bhorts, nnd tho like. Tho amount of
feed may bo graduated in nccordanco
with the averogo amount of work re
quired, but it should bo uniform. All
animals, not nt pasture, should havo
somo grecu food perhaps one-third of
all they cat. This should bo cut, wilted,
nnd brought to tho yard or stnblcB for
them, and bo ready when tho day's
work is done.
IirronTANCE of Advehtisino. Tho
following from tho Pittsburg Gazette,
a sketch of n business house in that
city, illustrates this matter: "In n
brief interview with ono of our most
liberal patrons a few days since, v o in
quired his experience of advertising.
Wo regard his answer as noteworthy,
nnd commend it to tho consideration
of others. lie snid the samo kind of
business in which he is engaged had
been carried on nt tho samo stand for
ton years by one, nnd nearly ton yenrs
by another predecessor. Thnt theso
men gavo diligent attention to their
busimm nnd wero sober nnd frugal,
but spent nothing for advertising.
They wero just baroly able to eko out
a living. Thnt he bought tho concern
ten years ago, and then begun debtor
for tho whole establishment. IIo felt
poor and only expended City dollars
per niiiium in each of tho business pa
pers tho first yenr, that subsequently
ho increased his expenses several thou
sand dollars annually for advertising
mid tho result has demonstrated its
marvelous utility, as ho ho is worth to
day $175,000 nnd his profits aro nniiu
ally increasing.
Look at the Sunny Bide. Thero
is such a sido in every lot in lifu. Most
children grow up in homes whero thero
nro no scrvnnts, and turn out passably
well. Men nnd women of tho highest
culture nnd social, moro often than oth
wise, began life in this condition, and
the early habits of self help and indus
try there formed, determined their char
acters and success. To bo born in
uflluonco is generally a calamity. Tho
children of tho rich aru most appropri
ately objeots of compassion. What
shall bo dono for such, to mako them
useful mid happy, is a a much moro dif
ficult problem to bolvo than tho prop
er training of thu children pi tho poor.
The men who make our laws nnd
mould public opinion, as a rule, grow
under necessity of labor. Their moth
ers filled the ollico of nurse, cook, and
laundress in their homeri, nnd to this
dny it is the honest conviction of theso
distinguished men, that their mothers
wore the best,, women nnd the most sa
vory cooks in tho world.
Average Yield of Ghain. Tlio
commissioner of tho National Agricul
tural Hureau nt Washington publish
ed n statement showing the avcrago
yield per acre, in tho States east of tho
Itocky Mountains, of tho various grains
in 1800. Tho lowest average yield in
any ono Stato was soven bushels of
wheat to tho acre, and tho highest, 113,
per acre. Tho avcrago yield in thirty
fivo States was a fraction less thnn 10
bushels per acre. In California tho
average yield was 20 bushels, mid in
Oregon 20 bushels. It will bo noticed
that tho average yield of wheat in tlio
two Pacifio States was over 150 per
cent greater per aero than it was in
tho States east of tho Hocky Moun
tains. The papers from that wonderfully
