per waters of both the Columbia and
Willamette rivers so Improved that nav
igation can be free on both to the high
est possible point. This sort of aid we
may calculate on with some prospect of
success.
The interest of Portland lies to a great
extent In keeping the rivers that connect
her with the sea dretlged out so that her
character as a seaport can be maintained
while the interest of the people at large,
both in Oregon and Washington, lies fn
the Improvement of the upper waters, tn
enable free and cheap navigation, and'
not only brlncr the lands of the upper
Columbia region Into market but also
to make It possible to ship the prodi-
nets of the upper country at a reason
able price.
This is also the true Interest of the city
of Portland, for the growth of that city
depends on the developement of the en
tire country, but there Is a penny wlsH
and pound foolish feeling in existence
there which bases the prosperity of the
city on Its being readied by all classes of
shipping, whereas the people of the State
feel that they have little interest in larg
vessels reaching that place. The lower
river will always be nrevlgable for steam
boatsy heavily loaded, and that'is all the-
country requires. Portland has an ad
vantage In trade that she ca retain, if
proper enterprise Is manifested, whether
large ships load there ornt Astoria. It Is
pretty well j roved that largcshlps can
not afford to oorae up the river and facll
Itk'B.fosllghtorage'are now stch that lb
is just as well they should not.
If the-inllucnccof Portland is in th
ascendant, antl'approprliitions are mad&
for the lower river only, or prfncipallj
then the State gains nothing: nil the.
gain is ftir Portland. VJe nel a com

ffcr was correct In taking the matter to
Itself, and we have, since that, mere
proof that Its saitl agent, either directly
or indirectly, presents that paper to tile

That paper donounces the Fahmeb. fn
very offensive language,, because part oC
our matter is a republisatlon from the

denounce the Granger, because It showa

The Butter "utsUoii.
We have seveitit lady correspondents
who have done themselves credit on this
question, and their point was certainly
well taken that merchants do wrong to
pay as much for poor butter as for good,
but that is n pait of tho policy of tho
merchant, who llnds that ho had better
take u poor ivrlicle of butter from u good
customer and pay a high price for It in
trade, than nllrout and lose tlint custom
er by stijlng plainly, " Vour butter Is not
good, nnd T do not want It at any price."
Vttdcr the present system of trade, tho
poor butU'i'-umkcr will never be rebuk

THE BUTTER QUESTION.
HOW TO WINTER SHEEP.
Pkkkydalk, Polk Co., Ogn.
January Uib 1875. 1
Mu. Editor: From reports It appears that
numbers of sheep, and other stock have per
ished tbe present hard wluter. This, I am
sorry to hear, and If I can give through the
medium of jour valuable paper my own ex
perience, tit tbe care of sheep, perhaps ll
may to some extent pruveut such losses lu
future,
Tbe present makes twenty. seTen winters I
have lived lu the Willamette Valley, twenty
one winter of that lime I have kept abeep
nd never I out ouo on account of bard win.
ten to my knowledge; during snow storms
their food has always been timothy hay, fed
at the rat of about two pounds per day for
each sheep, and I am careful to that tbey
get water to drink as tho want of wmUr U
apt to kill them when tntlr food la all dry, I
never salt their hay, nor feed them aalt
when the grouud la covered with auow. My
sheep do better when the ground la covered
with auow. In winter, than whan it la bare,
although their pasture la good, aa then they
will eat hay more treaty (especially the
young onea.) and It it more nutritious than
grass in winter. Very respoeUuIlyi
Iuxxq lljox, .
Mu. Editor.: There is always two
sides to any question, and especially
the butter question, and I tun par
ticularly pleased with Jennie Grantrer's
remarks on the subject. I have often
felt that great Injustice vsn done the
fanners' wives by the complaints that
appear from Mine to time in the Ore
gon papers, and I am very glad that
Jennie has taken up the subject. I
have seen salted yellow rolls of butter
taken to the-country stores nnd sold for
15 or 20 cents per pound and put away
with a quantity of white sticky "stuff"
ealled butter, for wliieh tho same price
Now is n't that discouraging to the
careful butter maker,
I will Ml a littlo incident which I
know to be true. Two young ladies,
ueighborsof mine, wanted some trink
ets, trimmings, etc., such as feminine
hearts delight in, so their mother tried
to make butter with which to purchase
the doftlrwl articles. They soon had 30
pounds ready for market, nnd their
nutter is always of the best nunlirv. but
the country merchants only ottered 15
cents in ryooefs, ana the articles wanted
wore not on hand po they persuaded
papa to let brother take the team and
bring them to Salem. They received
18 cents per pound, making So -10 for
the lot, now after deducting wages for
man nnd team. Immediately after it
was weighed out a lady who kept board
ers came in, bought the lot giving 20
cents per pound.
They had milked morning nnd even
ing for a week churned not less than
four times and their part of the pay
was $2 01) cent to be divided between
tliein. A lady of tiie same locality,
who had learned not to waste her timo,
received tho same price in Portland for
butter not half as good. Another lady
mtule .10 pounds of excellent butter,
took it to Portland, was only ottered II
cont.s: took It to several places and An
ally a gentleman who happened to
know the quality or butter this lady
manufactured ottered lb' cents. As she
hud brnrght it 10 miles she would not
take it homo but concluded It did not
pay to make'good butter to sell and as
she wouldn't ofl'er inferior butter she
quit tho business. MILKMAID.
