The Angora Goat.
Mr. Wtii. M. Lnmlruui his atrlvod tit Al
bany with his hand of jjoats tu (rood order,
having disposal nf ix hundred, one fomtli
of Ids bind. JLI finds a icarty market, tip
lirently, and many piircha.nrs will no
doubt ire!itthetiiKelvos at tlio Slato 1'nir
ile Is., ut the tluiH of wiltlnp, In this city.
Our readers Imvtt bo-mi a sood d"l on tlii
mbjoot lu the last t-.vu yenr-a, and ilnriiis tin t
tiuiy wo liuve quiied some prn nk-al iixberi
. iH-u of tLo valuo of till-so rmIiiimIs. Where
over tbeyure kept on brush hinds, so i'-ir as,
we can learn, they give cntlru suUfactlon.
Wo know that tuoy aro very hlgh'y
f-dpreclated hy man of good jtulgaiuvnl
That they aro most useful whe.i employed
lu ulearlm; brush lands cannot bj doubted;
thoy answer well It Is sitd for mutton als.c
and when bred to seven (lights, and hlrhei
than that, their wool has a market value that
makes the lleeca valuable.
Tboro aro now In Oregon, Including the
2100 just bought hy Mr. JVindruru, nbout
iiOOO of these Koats, and as tuoy Increase verj'
rapidly (nd we may also expect others to bo
imported,) it will not bo many years btforo
that number will bo Increased ten fold. As
nopts increaso and ure utilized wheat cultuie
will IncriRSio, for they will assist to redeom
hruthlands tliit urn now L'OtnimrAtiVc-ly val
ueless. Without golup Into any discussion
of the valuo of mohair or the cost ot the
Angora goat, it seems to be beyond a doubt
that at least a million ot acres of brush land
in thin valley Invites the assistance of the
goat to prepare It for cultivation.
Mr. Landrum will reinnin at Albany with
his goats until after the Linn County Fair,
and will then come to Salem. '
I Coos Cor.VTW The licmnl avs : Tiio
tx levy for the pitent lKe.il vl-nr is '23
mill", two mills le-s ihun that of last
year. The pioperty of tho county has
i been uscs!(l nmeli lower than lust year,
I and although there has been a Inrjru ill
crease in the taxable properly of the
, county, the ni'SMiii'iit shows little or no

Correspondence.
Halsky, Sept. 0, 18T."i.
Kditou I'.vitMiiii: As I was passing
through tho country a little 1 thought 1
would sotul you a few Items thinking per
haps It niiiiht interest your mauy readers. I
left homo on tho l.lih, and stopped that night
im llowoll Prahle, where, judgln? from
tho stiibhlo, they have lwl a bountiful crop
I'asslns; on through JttBersou and taking
middle mud I entered tho prairie at Knox's
Huttej hero I saw Uve headers and threshers
Hi work in sight at one time, aud hundreds
ol acres of grain uuharvested. Judging
from what I saw their crops aro not as good
as in Marian county, Aftor passing up this
road about twolve mile, I turned my course
lor Brownsville. Much of the farms about
this town are sown in Flax, in fact I saw
nioro of this crop within five miles around
ttrownsvillo than in all the rest of my trav
els thereafter. Tho crop looked poor, and 1
asked ouo of the farmers who was eugagod
in raising it if it paid, and ho answered, "I
think I would have done bettor If I had of
sowed wheat this year."
Passing od, I crossed tho north fork of tho
Willamette at Spores' ferry, and here about
Springfield I found the nicest (arming coun
try that I have seen since I left Howell's
Prairie, and I am not sure but it beats that.
Stock of all kinds I believe is generally bet
ter than in Marion county, and atB. F. Pow
er, Springfield, I saw a fine lut of long
wooled sheep.
More anon. G. W. Dimick.
Thk Hor Crop. It being now tho last
week In August, with all the early hops al
ready picked and mostly sold, and just in
the commencement of the harvest of the
later kinds, we can make something more
than a estimate of the present crop In fact
we have the results. The weather the patt
week has been very favorable for the crop
-as well for the picking as for the qiuliiy and
healtbfulness of the vine and crop. Clear
bright days with cool nights givethe hop the
best weather to mature in and if this con
tinues for the next two weeks, the crop will
all be secured, and generally of a very line
quality.
Now, growers of the early varieties made
their estimates for double the orop tbey had
last year from the same acreage, and the pick
ings' have proved that these high estimates
wore still quitf ton low, for in every instance
thev have more than doublwd lat year's crop.
Pickings of the latd variotles have net ad
vanced tar enough to give such plain ihsulty
in fact no crop is t.ato uutll secured by the
harvest ofthosime, but with tho eoutinu
anca of our tine weather, It must bo greater
and generally butler than wo have had in
eight or ten years at least, and will excel the
very tine crop of last year one-third at least.
Otsego county, occupying a central pnsi
turn, as it does, in tho hop-growiDg districts
ot Jthe State, what cm bo said for the hops
here can be applied, with lew exceptions, to
the whole hop growing district ot'New York.
Under tlieso circumstances tho question
urisfls whether growers, it they are wise,
diould not umke conc?'-Ions lu price suffi
cient to put one-third or more of tnis ernn on
the torelgn mirkt, in preference to holding
it over in thtlr own hands. Country 6V;i-ttf-inuii.
Facinh a Whirlwind The Faribault,
Minn., Democrat lolls of a tanner who in go
!ug along the rond saw a whirlwind ofdtii-t
before him and thinking ita common insig
nificant little affair of a whirlwind did not
deign to step Aidt for it. but continued on
until be met it square in the road. When
they came together the whirlwind seemed to
drop everything else and took lhold of Mr.
Johnson, and in less time tfian It takes to
tell It, Mr Johnson had lost his hat and his
-dirt, dtiil was niched about twf nty feet into
the cuttr, feeling us though he bad been
shocked by a battery. Mr. Johuscn will never
loi.l wiih a whirl warn again.
