The subscription price of the weekly
Chronicle is only a $1.50 a year,. or 75
cents for six months. This makes it the
cheapest paper of its class in Oregon.
. We regret to hear that the wife of Sen
ator Watkins is still suffering quite
severely from an . attack of erysipelas.
She is not so well today as she was yes
terday. Mr. Frank Gabel, of AVapinitia, came
into town yesterday to hire five or six
men to help him in the lambing season.
He reports about three inches of snow
and that is rapidly disappearing.
Two car loads of sheep were shipped
from the stock yards this morning by J.

prime condition.
Mr. H. C. Nielson is in receipt of his
spring and summer clothing for gentle
man and boys. His selections are fine
and the styles are the latest out, while
his prices are extremely low. He carries
a fine stock and will not be undersold.

The little word "its," the possessive
case of the neuter pronoun "it," as much

E. N. Chandler came in town last
night to make preparations for opening
of the new grange store. Mr. Chandler
will soon be a full fledged citizen of The

were, and the Crboniclb bids him a
hearty welcome.
Professor Hagal has been busy all day,
at the fair grounds, making preparations
for his balloon ascension next Sunday at
2:30 o'clock. He. has had to build a
large temporary furnace in which to
make the gas to inflate his big balloon,
- which is 70 feet high by 55 feet in
diameter. He has put the charge . for.
admission to the grounds, at twenty-five
cents and promises to exhibit, rain or
shine.
. There have arrived in Portland -a
larger number of vessels than usual for
this season,' purposely to load with
wheat for Europe, and we notice wheat
has jumped up in price to $1.35 per
cental for Eastern Oregon, which means
81 cents per bushel there. Buyers are
only offering 58 cents in this city. At
Walla Walla 200 miles further inland 63
cents is being paid. Why this differ
ence in price we don't quite understand.
It.not the railroad this time sure, as
tUwufate is 10 cents a bushel from here
to Portland.
Jack Hickey, an old. timer of The
Dalles, has just returned from the Ar
gentine Republic. While there he was
compelled to secure the necessaries of
life, by sheep-shearing at the munficent
remuneration of a cent and a half a head,
- paid in currency based on mortgages on
real estate, worth about forty cents on
the dollar in gojd. While so engaged
they fed him on meat straight, without
bread or anything else. He reports

The War of the Dallies.
The Wasco Sun. .'
The Dalles, March 9, 1891.
Editor of The Sun :
Please permit me, through the columns
of your paper, to call attention to some
notable . facts connected with the war
which has been going on between our
respective dailies.
For the first time in the history of our
great country have two foreign'powers
been known" to engage in warfare over
American productions. And what is
still more surprising is to see a thorough
bred Englishman hoist the white flag at
the first volley, (after having skirmished
along the line for several days humming,
"Fe fo fum, I'll have the "blood of an
Irishman,") and leave the brave Irish
man master of the situation, weilding
his powerful sword, ready to purify Ore
gon politics, and if Her Majesty's gov
ernment wishes to arbitrate the Behring
sea troubles. He will settle them to the
tune of "Johnny Come Running Home."
"History repents,''"so Johnny beware.
We've not of good editors many ;
So when you ilght an Irishman brave.
Remember the cuts of Kilkenny.

WASN'T THAT KIKD OF A FISH.
How a Gilded Salmon Fooled a Fish
Hawk.
Every one riding or walking through
Upper Astoria has noticed Ben Young's
handsome new house and the big gold
salmon that does duty as a weather vane
above the cupola. Yesterday a fish
hawk was sweeping over that part of the
neninsula. when his oiercinir eve caught
sight of the royal chinook salmon glisten
ing in the bright rays of the sun. He
seemed to consider it a very strange
thing that a salmon should hang sus
pended in mid air above the roof of a
house. He flew sevei-al hundred feet
higher in the still and sunny air, and
sailed round and round in narrowing
circles for several seconds, all the time
with his keen gaze fixed on the fish.
Finally, however, he seemed to come
to the 'conclusion that the fish was
genuine, and swooping down he seized
it with his talons. But the fastenings
were strong, and though the fish spun
round on its perch, it stayed. The
hawk rose, circled twice more and made
another swoop, scaring himself in his
clatter against the resounding sides of
the metal salmon, that spun as though
in the vortex of a cyclone.
Then the disgusted hawk spread its
wings and, with a gleam of discomfiture
in its erstwhile proud eye, sailed away
for the forest recesses of Astor addition,
there to reflect oh the deceptiveness of
appearances. Aslortan.

. . Those Kilkenny Cats.
" A gentleman of the Yankee persuasion
requested the Chronicle man to explain
the allusion to the "Kilkenny Cats," in
the letter of "Subscriber," published in
the Wasco Sun of yesterday and appear
ing in another place-in this paper. His
answer was as follows:
"There wor two cats in Kilkenny,
And each thought there was wan cat too many,
Bo they gouged and they bit
' And they clawed and they fit
Till excepting their nails
And the tips of their tails
Instead of two cats there warn't any."

"Madam," replied Simpson, gravely,
"I'm a believer in reciprocity. Do you

child became sick about ten days ago
with a complication of those two dread

Is Disease a Punishment.
The following advertisement, published
by a prominent western patent medicine
house would indicate that they regard
disease as a punishment for sin :
"Do you wish to know the quickest
way to "cure a severe cold? We will tell
you.. To cure a cold quickly, it must be
treated before the cold has become
settled in the system. This can always be
done if you choose to, as nature in her
kindness to man gives timely warning
and plainly tells you in nature's way.
that as a punishment for -some indiscre
tion, you are to be afflicted, witn. a cold
unless you choose to ward it off by
prompt action. The first symptoms of a
cold, in most cases, is a dry, loud cough
and sneezing. The cough is soon followed
by a profuse watery expectoration and
the sneezing by a profuse watery dis
charge from th'o nose. In severe cases
there is a thin white coating on the
tongue. What to do? It is only necessary
to take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
in double doses every hour.. That-will-greatly
lessen the severity of the cold
and in most cases will effectually count
eract it. and cure what would have .been-
a severe cold within one or two days
time. Try it ana be convinced." M

A. Modem Steam Dairy
' - Julius-' Kaupisch has recently rented,
for a term - of years, 4,200 acres of the
celebrated Novato ranch, 25 miles north
of San Francisco, and is fitting it up
with the best modern steam machinery ,
as a butter dairy. '.;..- ; -
Mr. Kaupisch is a Saxon by birtb and
the son of one of the wealthiest and
mosf extensive dairymen of central Eu
rope, whose immense steam -dairy had a
world wide reputation as the model es
tablishment of its kind.' The elder Kau
pisch prided' himself on being right tip
to the times ' in all points. - Every new
invention thought to be of any value in
dairying was procured and given a
thorough trial. In this great model
dairy was made every known product
of cow's milk. " Steam was made' to per
form every office possible. The cows
were pumped dry of their milk, their
stalls cleaned and the manure ' dumped
into carts, feed cut, grain ground, roots
pulped, churns rotated, cheeses pressed,
water pumped, utensils cleansed, and
even the stalls scalded out - and the
stables warmed by steam. Even with
all this experimentation in a : country
where manual labor is cheap, Kaupisch
pere made it pay. - -He died only a few
months ago, a - wealthy man.. .In this
dairy the son passed his boyhood and
became entirely ' familiar -with all milk
;pro.ductS 'to the znihtttest details. He
subsequently spent; years or technical
study in the government dairy station
of his native country. After serving for
some years in different dairies in Saxony
and. Holland, and visiting all the great
dairy '. sections of. Europe, .he came to
the United States to introduce dairy .ma
chinery. He eventually brought up at
Elgin, the great dairy centre of Illinois,
and secured the position of superinten
dent of the great milk condensing and
canning establishment there. He came
to this coast last summer on a vacation ;
fell iii love with the country as a gen-
feral dairy section, and at once secured
a favorable lease, of a large ranch, and
has fitted up one of the old fashioned
hand work dairies into a modern steam
dairy. " The plant is run by a '15-horse
power boiler and a 12-horse power en
gine, : a . cream separator and two
immense churns. The cream sepa
rator is run. . by a little rotary power
steam motor about as big as your two
fists. ' Mr. Kaupisch has to return . to
Europe soon to settle up his father's es
tate, which will somewhat delay bis ul
timate plans.. He intends, however, in
due time, to put in plants to manufac
ture every known product from cow's
milk, that be thinks will ' pay on this
coast. ' The dairy is now milking 405
cows, and should carry, old style, about
800, and by modern style, when properly
fitted up, 1,300 to 1,400 cows.
If he were a millionaire he, would be
at the helm of a dairy. If he had not a
cent he would hire put to a dairyman
until he had earned money enough to
Start one.
, . Asked, if steam would pay if put in a
small dairy of 30 to 40 cows, he was
most emphatic in. saying it would, for
many reasons; and for the one great
point, cleanliness,- thereby insuring far-
better results. Every dairyman should
get a boiler and an engine at once. It is
cheaper, and better than hand, horse or
other power in the dairy. '
Remedies for Pea Weevil.
- This beetle deposits its eggs on young
pea pods, and when the yellowish worm is
hatched it bores through the pod into e
pea, and there remains, feeding until it
changes to a beetle about one-fourth of
an inch long, grayish, mottled with
black. Generally the beetle remains in
the pea until it is planted. Neither the
worm nor the beetle injures the germ,
and infested peas are nearly, if not quite
as sure to grow as those not touched.
Use - care in selecting seed. A patch on
a pea a little darker than the rest of the
surface indicates that the insect is in
side. Put infested seeds, before plant
ing, in an air-tight jar, say a quart fruit
jar, into which two teaspoonfuls of bi
sulphide of carbon has been poured,
cover and let it stand a day or two,
being careful hot to use the compound
near fire or lights as it is easily ignited
and is disastrously explosive. This will
kill all the beetles and the seed will not
be injured.- A second remedy is to soak
peas in boiling water for two minutes
before planting. Another, way is for all
the farmers in one neighborhood to omit
planting peas for one year, and keep the
infested seed in perfectly air-tight ves
sels until the following year. - This kills
all the weevils, but the first remedy is
more practical..
- A closely allied weevil, the bean
weevil, is found in beans. The same
cautions and remedies atoply to it as to
the pea weevil -Prof. Washbnrne, Ore
gon state entomologist. - .
- Nothing- but Lea-r.
Keep in mind constantly the one fact
in horticulture, that the leaves of the
tree, its foliage, does all the important
work, as nothing . but , the leaves can
cause to grow fruit,, wood, bark and
roots. It is the office of the leaves to
elaborate material with which every
part of the whole structure is composed.
They are the mouths, lungs and the
stomach of the tree, all combined in one.
The roots furnish the raw material and
anchor the tree in its place. A great
many so cauea autnonties are con
stantly trying to grow fruit without the
help of leaves, at least they seem to
think them -useless apendages, leaving
them no room to grow. They succeed
very poorly. '
Eastern Fralt Prospects
This coast has about as deep an in
terest in the Eastern fruit crop as we
have in our own, for a big crop there
means a light demand for our. ship
ments of green fruits. The prospects of
a great fruit crop east of the Rockies
has never been better than at present.
The great fruit regions of Western New
York and Michigan report everything,
so far, very promising. In Delaware
and Maryland the peach trees, after
their rest of last season, are looking
Btrong' and fine, therefore this coast
should be prepared to dry and can ex
tensively. Good dried fruit always sells.
