Sliall hc Celebrate?
That Is the question we propound to
the. citizens of .Salem. Tills is the last
time in the first century of the Jlepub
lic that we .shall have nn opportunity
to expand our surplus enthusiasm. The
question is: Shall we go to Myrtle
Creek in the Uinpqua, or to Junction
City in Lane county, or to f-oinc other
far ofr village where the national tra
ditions will be reverenced, or shall we
celebrate at home '.' So proud are we
of the flag that floats over tliMmildhifr
that we want ittosiiudderon Indepen
dence day at the explosion of home
cannon, and flutter to the tremend
ous vibrations of home made martial
music, so weiepeat ngnin the momen

Value or Oregon Timber.
We publish elevhere a letter from
Mr. Isatc Hall, of Polk co., who certifies
thut he had a wajon oullt of Oregon oak
in IMC, nearly twenty years ago, by
Messrs. Jeller.-oii and George Davis, of
which hc states that the tires were not
set for six years, and that tho hind
wheels have only just now been re-set
the second time, the-wagon having been
used for thirteen years without showing
any looseness of tires all that time.
Of couree this Is a most gratifying evi
dence of the good wort done by the buil
ders, who also had eucullent timber to
use. It has often been asserted that Or
egon timber would not answer for wagon
building, and each year oiir hardware
dealers are importing timber from the
Eastern States to supply a fancied want.
It is occasionally proven,, however, that
some of this timber charged for as
brought from the Eastern States, was re
ally cut and sawed and seasoned here in
Oregon,, and then palmed oft at the high
price charged for the imported article,
and with such proof as the letter of Mr.
Ball furnishes we ought to prepare our
home timber thoroughly for use and ba
nish the foreign article from. our State.
What is needed, and all that is needed,
evidently is that our timber should be
properly seasoned, and it la a natural
supposition, borne out by careful obser
vation, that the timber grown iu any
country has the peculiar qualifications
necessary to withstand the influences of
the climate in which it grew. The oak,
maple, and ash of Oregon are condemned
to ignoble purposes, and every year tens
of thousand of cords of as good timber as
tlie world produces are burned for fire
wood. Thus the natural wealth of our
country goes to waste, for at least half of
nil this wood could be madu.avallable by
manufacturers as valuable timber, and
we could' actually export H' to a profit in
stead oi importing what is uo better, if it
is as food.
What is needed in this, connection is
capital to prepare it rightly for market.
It should be cut at the proper season of
the year, sawed, or split l the form best
suited to the manufacturer, and never
sold until five years aftosor longer still,
ifitcminot be thoroughly seasoned in
that time. It is demonstrated by the
letto we publish that when seasoned our
oak aiakes as good timber as can be pro
cured iu the world. !S"ow we want to see
this, proof followed up by a careful iihiiiii--fucUirc
thitt.shall at luistsupply the home
deiuund and have the present treat year,

PHODUcnoy of wool.
Having read s comprehensive article In the
Bulletin upca tht production of woe), writ
ten by President Jacobs of the Oregon City
Manufacturing Company, the impulse was
strong to offer-ray testimony, although too
much astrangM-to the wool raiders of Oregon
,for my name to-add any strength to sucb an
article.
j I wish It was la-mv power to convince the
wool raisers, and those sUvk breeders who
anticipate entering u on this line of agricultural-industry,
o?thedifferenln the charac
ter of much of tha wool that goes upon tile
market as Oregon-wool, now and ten years
or more ago; and- at the sa-ne time bring
ttwm to a conception of the vaot difference it
make to a state fci It wool to be sought In
theuiarket for Its intrinsic vniue, or urged
upon the market at reduced prioe on account
of it uncertain character. I speak with some
experience upon this subject, having had the
superintendence of, and the purchasing duty
for, a-New England' mill, using two thous
and pounds per day, for 14 or l&years.whlcfcv
was running upoo.a wide ratine of fancy,
dress and standard goods, using Oregon, Cal
ifornia, Bueuos A7res, Cape of- Good Hop
and Australian wool.

its language.
I) trust, Mr. Editor, your readers will par

the propriety aay, the necessity of so
studying our economies that we shall not al

attempting to save beyond sound limit. Z7or

that so far aa wool is concerned, Mr. Jacobs
will join me in urging the value of a constant
tUrilt. of the iiock, if wo would have tha wool
of wbatevop quality as to fineness, Bound and
of full value for felted goods. Ten y tars ago
much California wool was. avoided on this
account. There was a similar difference be
tween the-wool of Buenos. Ayres and that of
Australia, as I have referred to between that
of Oregoa and California..
The flock-masters of California have made
,..,
a wonderful advance la the character of their
flocks u Ithin ten years, and are tho past year
making most extended purchaser ot Spanish
Merino blood from the. East. I am in com
inunkMtion with one of tho largest California
wool house", who shear over one hundred
and twenty-live thousand sheep of their own
feeding; who hav been constantly adding
to the value or their wool on the market, bv
theintusion of thU blood of such quality ami
which has such power to tix n typo. One of
their late purchases, from Hon. S. I. Orcult,
of Cuiumington, Mass . being of a buck for
which they pnld fifteen hundred dollars. Mr.
Orcutt lurn'sbtis more of this reliable blood,
than all others, understanding its valuo so
well in his immense purchases of wool for
tho Kistern markets. I liavo jut received a
letter from Mr. Hammond, ot Vermont, list
ed at San Francisco, who writes that he has
s)ld to Mr. Orcutt bis entire flock, which has
led tho blood so long, aud is engaged in de
livering it to Hock masters of the Pacific
coast
Shall I ask the question, Are Oregon flock
masters constantly endeavoring to work up
and strengthen their blood, by a liberal In
'usion of that blood which takes the lead in
tho market of the mass of the clothing wools.
I notice a tow Spanish Merinos are advertised
in the Failmkh and other papers, but ought
to have fifty where it has one, that the char
acter of Oregon wool may command two to
three cents a pound abovo the same blood
grown in the dry plaius and bills of Califor
nia. I must uot weary your readers, Mr.
Editor, but I earnestly hope some of your
able Industrial Economists will place Iu well
defied lights tho immense value of this In

on the Sixes river, considerable gold mining
