To-day proposi tions will bo considered for tho luaklug of tho window frames for the upper stories. Last week bids wero received trout the throo iron cstablUhmeubi at 1'ortlaud, aud from Drake hero, for tho irou work, principally IsjlU, ft)r the roof, Mr. 11. K. Drake, of Saleiu, reoelx-eil tho con tract at his proposal to do the work for &t,71S, tho others belug closo after him. One Port land bid was 11,7.15, another J 1,710 and the other ono ;i,t00. Work Is being pushed aheaxl very rapidly aud will easily bo completed within the time set by the contracts made. Tho proposals to tuako window frames wcro opened this afternoon aud tho eoutnwt ,is awarded to John O. Carson, of Portland, for f 1P0 tho next bid above him being tor UJ9f"r -a'IVTe-vir Cultivating jflax for Fiber. Two enterprising citizens of Marlon county, living near Jeflbrson, nre going rather extensively into the cultiva tion of ilax to manufacture the same Into fiber. Wc alludo to Charles Miller and Jesse Parrish, who aro putt ing in one hundred acres of Irish flax in partnership, with the intention of putting up machinery, either water power oil the Suullani or steam power on their own places, to manufacture the same Into tow, aftor which they will ship the same to Ireland for a market. The work will bo superintended, or assisted, by Robert McGIvcru, who has been a resident of Oregon for five years, but came originally from the north of Ireland, where he was brougiit up to a practical knowledge of tho business of raising and manufactur ing Max. They have received tho seed direct from Europe, and have sowed two bushels to the acre. That sowed April 10th is up six inches, and looking nice. These gentlemen liuvo taken a rather extensive job on their hands, for one hundred acres of fiax will require a great deal of work to properly prepare it for market, but they havo the energy and also the means rcqulsito to push the work through successfully. It really seems as If Max culture offered our citizens a good field for enterprise even on a smaller scale than our friends above named are undertaking it. A gen tleman from abroail engaged in business at Portland,, when conversing lately about tho rwource our farmers, sug gested to u that every one of them should raise ono or more acres of flax, which could bo easily rotted- in the Sill and put away forfutarcuse. Then when the long winter evenhigs and rainy days .should come tho faulty could put the time in profitably in scutching tho same and preparing tho tow fbr tho use of lin en manufactures, Ky this means, with out much ground Loing occupied, and with little less of time) except during the idle hours of winter, each farmer's fami ly could have for salo a toi or more- of fiber, worth SHOO pei-ton. Tt is time our peorJo paid attention to these means of increasing their roveuue, and began 'jo create a. more varietl indus try. This Higgestlci wo look upon as important,, and If enrxiud out it will, but lie doing what farmtra of other countries do successltlly oveay yeoi. It is unfor tunately l.fio lute foi our itrniers U put tho idea i'jto practtaalonfrration the-uses-ent year. Lesson dr. the Vlntcr. A goiiHcman pcticuUrly intcrt-Uwl in stock mising sas that tho 'lesson of tho past winter ought to bo well laarned. Ownorj of stock should rcinembar and net upwi tlio plainly ovldeut fact that an imals will die of exposure and starvation throisgh tho cold winter and the-chilling storms, mul are entitled to care and pro tection. Shelter, to somo extent, will saye food. Kootl and shelter are dictated by tho common principles of humanity, and also by motives of prudent economy. Iiivo stock aro wortli more than dead an imals, aud thoso in good order are more valuable than those that havo barely brought sklu and bono through tho win ter. To raise good stock of any kind, it must be protected and fed at tho most Inclement seasons. Our pasturo lands in this valley aro wearing out, and as much stock cannot bo kept as heretofore, for tlio wheat fields nro claiming tho room formeily devoted to pasture. Gooil stock of all kinds should be kept, because a valuuulo animal of any kind needs no nioro feed than a poor and worthless scrub. We aro coming to a new era in Oregon life, when we must study practi cal economy tuul practice, the most thrif ty methods. We should keep stock that aro wortli sheltering and footling, and keep them good by giving them what little caro and attention they need, es pecially as that is only necessary for a short period. Oregon farmers should supply Oregou markets with good beef all winter, aud. they can ilosoala profit. Thoso who tried filtteiiliig beef stearsthis winter must have made it profitable, and thoro is no reasonable oxo.uso for poor beef over being sold in this or any other phico in our State. An Imimutant Dkcision. The case of W. P. Dolaud vs. O. M. Uaruard, Assessor of Multnomah county, the JJultetm Bays which wits im application by tlio pltiulitf for a maudatmis requiring the defendant to de duct the amount of plaintiff's Indebtedness within tho Stale from the amount ot his tax able property, aud which was argued on the tltli hut., was decided Saturday. Judge Sbattuck holds the law of tho last Legisla ture, limiting the doduotlon of Indebtedness to $1,000, unconstitutional, tho law not bolug euactod lu the form prescribed by the Con stitution. Messrs, Dolpb, Uronaugh, Dolpu A- Simon, appeared for the plaintiff, and il. V. Tlomiwoii, District Attorney, appeared for the delendaut. Charley Swegle and family came on the steamer and reached homo this morulng,and to say that a host of frlouds wero glad to see him would acaroo express It. Charloy looks as line as silk aud almost as blooming as a ra-40. WILLAMETTE FARMER? .BEJ5F CATTLE. George Ti. Carry writes to tho.iibtm lainccr, from Canyon City, on tho sub ject of tlie beef supply in Oregon. He estimate's tho number of cattle In the Pacific States as follows: Oregon S0G,3srr, Nevada ZMffiQO, Washington Territory 100,600, California 817.S72, total 1,154,199. How reliable? these figures are, ho does not prove, but he seems to havo arrived at them In some manner satisfactory to himself, aud he further estimates that these counties snpply 145,000 beeves an nually, of GOO lbs-weight erveh, or 87,030,- uuu pounds or beer to feci not over one million people, which would glvo 87 lbs of beef to each one-. Tho consumption of beef ho puts at 0000 annually for Pbrtland; at 3520 annu ally for British Columbia; San Francisco 60,000 head annually, and making al lowance for the other meats used he does not see that the beef supply ol tho Pa clfic exceeds the demand, whicn may or may not be true, but at tho same time we notico that beef ! not worth much over half as much in 3an Frauclsjo as in Eastern cities, and while Oregon and Washington have more beef to 30II in proportion to our population than Cali fornia and Nevada, weoannot expect the price to improve much-hero until trie de mand exceeds tho supply In tho more thickly populated regions of our coast to which we must look for a market. It Is well enough to- look at all these matteia from the standpoint of figures and solvo all the problems we can with mathematical exactnesay but figures will deceive us, whllo the money market and tho beef market and nil other markets maintain themselves on the sometimes inexplicable laws of supply and demand, and the inexorable logic -of commerce-is that desiand must como first. Now the plain fazt is that the demand docs not equal tho suiwly, an! consequently our cattle business languishes. If wo can create a new market to increase tho de mand, titen wo may look for improve ment iuprice. JOSEPH D. L0CEY. The saddest feeling that will arise iu the hoarts of citizens of Salem at reading the ac count we publish olsewbero taken from the Oregohian o( the dlsoKter to tho stoauier Senator,, will attach to iie loss of our friend and follow citizen, Ja Locey, who has sa much of late years mado bis home in this city. Wo cannot part-from him without giv ing some slight tribute to bis momory. It Is a pleasure that Is left .us to remombo that bo was true, sincore, kiud and honest. It was foreign to his nature to bo otherwise. He- was gsutlo as a woman; and a purer auJ more truthful man oould not be found, yob ho was earnest and competent in the dis charge of life's duties. Uo had tho soul of . poet and shared :uauy of tho eccentrlcltlss of pootlo natures. Wo have published a nuiEber of his contributions and his poetical writings havo foaud' favor with other jour nals and a favored place In the pages of the Oioiland magtkztne. He was a true chvjs tifin and honsst gentleman and it is nell with him to-(ivy in that celestial homo iie yond the shores of life's stormy seas. Mr. Locoy was at one timo County Jxdge of Clackamas, and represented that county In tho Legislature in 1SGU. HAJMMER FRUIT DRYER. Mr, K. Spattldlng, of Spauldlng Bros, who own the l'lutnmor Fruit Dryer, has been for somo time lu Oregon and has comploted ar rangements for having the business repre sented in our Stato. Mr, S. A, Clarke of Salem, will act rs General Agont, assisted by Mr. T. J.

Circulars with full description will bo sont to parties applying for the samo. The proprietors warrant that the Flummor process will do as good work as is possible by any other, and sell their machines with that guarantee. They also assert that a company with half the capital can erect machines to do m good work aud as much work as the Aldou 0n do With double (hg money, and that the same amount of bus! nas' can be constructed with less expense than by the Alden process. Mr. K. Spauldlng haying had experienoe in building, owning and operating the Alden maohlues succasslully in California la thor oughly posted as to what be asserts con- oorulug the excellence and capacity of each Astonishing Transaction!!! Thole has boon filed lu the Clerk's Office of Marlon county a deed, or pretended deod, mado by J. K. QUI arid wife ot Portland, to W. W. Morolaud and wife of Ilealdsburg, California, to the Court House Ulock and property in this city, executed May 1st, for the pretended consideration ol one thousand dollars. Also a mortgage (pretended) for tho same property, executed May 4th, by W. W. Moreland and wire to J. K. QUI and wife, for the ssuio preuilsos, to secure a pretended debt of one hundred and twenty thousand dollars. This Is supposed by citlions of Salem to be an attempt to levy black-mail ou the Couuty Commiasiouers and creates about as much alarm as if the Wilson heirs had fired a pop-gnu. The County Clerk makes his fee for recording aud the newspa pers throuck tho Stato have an Item, and Mr. aill convinces tho people of Salem that bis disclaimers about not wishlug to push the olatrus of the Wllsou heirs, made in the past, woro not genuiuo. - - What CJnscs the Scab. -Mr. Joph Jloyt, Sn4 irlntend-int of th Salem Woolen Mills "9 l,,,lt W,,HU h" first came to Oregon, alio thlrtooa yo.tr. ego, the wool of tho country v o elosn mi-1 In nice order, much more ho v!i. -n at th- pro eut tlma.
