Deversified Farming.
Tho Urccloy (Colorado) Tribune given
the following excellent notice of B. S.
I.i Grange, Master of Cache La I'outlre
Orange, which is so much to the point
that wo take pleasure in reproducing
It.
"First, he will devote fifteen or twen
tyacres to corn, fecjuafehes and pens; ee

pigs, which arc to be fed peas and

and then when corn Is fit to be fcd.they I

they will weigh from iMlto.lUO pounds.
Thfi hog crop will be worm from s-boo
to $1,00U, and tho heifer talves and
butter, Wdo, more, makinga total of not
less than 51,200 lrom twenty ncies of
land, while other crops can be grown to
the amount of several hundred dollar-.
Tills plan, so presented in the outline
looks extremely well, as there are lc-s
ehances for failure, than anyother,since
wo all well know that the crops named
out 1)0 grown with tolerable certainty
whether we have grasshoppers or not.
Therefoie, we are not to consider
whether wo would be better off if we
had no railroads, but wc arc to consider
what can bo produced by skill and in
itustry, which will be worth ten cents
a pound against two cents a pound,
giown by our present system. What
our fanners need, above all other things
is to make two or three thousand dol
lars In the same number of years, so as
to become a little Independent; after
that they can sail along with flying
colors."
ALiTTi.KamiiGivJSs Liskai:i.i as
Ait(i(JMi:NT. Whatever may be tho
final action of the British Parliament
on tho bill to irivo Queen Victoria the
title of Empress of India, the lising
generation in that country Is being
educated to regard tho title as belong
ing to their sovereign. This fact was
shown by Mr. Disraeli in a recent
speech on the bill, when, alluding to
the Dumber of letters he had recieved,
all bearing upon tho subject, ho said
lio would allude to but two. One refer
red to a prominent almunac which adds
tho title to thoso of the Queen. Tho
other, ho said, was written to him by a
lady, and ho thought no mignt com
municate Its contents without compro
mising himself or tho lady for whom
ho entertained sentiments of warmth
for ability displayed. Tho writer of
tho letter had lived to the age of twelve
years, and had nnnlyzed tho novelty of
tho title, Empress of India. She
wrltos:
"What'sllly men you arc in l'arlia-
mont. I havo known that title for
' three years; It Is in ray geographical
book." Laughter.
Tho book alluded to in this note was
i.uod in 187., is in Its eighty-ninth
edition and in tho hands of something
, like a quarter of a million of children.
Tho statement It makes involving this
matter of tho Imperial title is that
"British Indlu is under tho dominion
of Great Britain. Her Majesty bears
tho title of Empress oflndiu."
Doni". Enouoh tor his Col'xtuv.
An old American Itevolutionory sol
dier was a canidato for Congress, and
Ills opponent was a young man who
"had never been to tho wars," and it
was tho custom of tho old soldier to tell
of hardships ho had endured. Said he:
"Fellow citizons, I havo fought and
bled for my country. I have helped to
whip tho British nnd Indians. I have
slept on tho Held of battle with no other
coverniug than the canopy of heaven.
1 havo walked over tho froen ground
till overy footstep was marked with
blood." Just about this time, one of
tho voters, who had become grealty
interested In his tide of suflerlngs,
walked up to tho speaker, wiped tho
tears from his eyes with tho extremity
of tils coat tall, and interrupted him
with, "Did you say you had lout tho
British and InginsV'v "Yes, sir." "Did
you say you had slept on tho ground
wlillo sorvlng your country, without
any klver'."' "Yes," replied tho speaker
xuitingly. "Well, then," said tho
truthful speakor, as ho gave a sigh of
pent-up emotion, "I guess I'll vote for
t'other fellow, for I'll be hanged if you
httin't done enough for your country."
Soanhaij. It wns tho saying of an
eld acquaintance of ours, when his at
tention was called to anything that had
A smacking of Hyundai in It, "I have so
much to do that I cannot hear it. One
half my time is taken up with my own
business, the other half with lottlmr
alone that of my neighbors." How
many excellent opportunities of lotting
ulouo other people's business are slight
od, and the world Is troubled with tho
Jntorl'eroneoof people with what does
not concern them! Neighborhoods are
driven um.y by reports of idle or mis
hi!vnu4 people who watch for occa
sions for scandal, and loso no oiinortii-
aity of making it public, regardless of
ittjtruth, or ot tho, injury it mulcts up
on tho feelings of others. Gossip pass
es for faet, nnd surailso fur history.

A Profitable Hog.
Tho following description of a profit
able hog was reported by the committee
at the Swine Breeder's Convention at
Indianapolis, Ind.: He must have a
small, (-horthcail, heavy jowl, and thick,
short neck; ears small, thin, and toler
able erect, not objectionable if they
droop slightly forward, must bo straight
from the neck back to flank; must be
let well down to the knees in briket;
of irood length from head to tail: broad
on the back: ribs rather barrel shaped;
must bo slightly curved or arched in
tho back from the shoulder to the sett
ing in of the tail; tall small; long in the
ham from back to letting off the loins ;
shoulder not too large to give symmetry
to the animal, ham broad and full: hair
smooth and evenly set on skin soft and
elastic to the touch: legs short, small
and well set under; bro.wl between the
lei's: trood denth between bottom and

lbs. gross, at 1- or 18 months old, ac
couling 'o keep, color black or whlte,or
u mixture of the two. The above tie
scribed hog will measure as many feet
feet from the top of the head to etting
on of tail, as he does around the body,
and will meaure as many inches
around the below the knee, as he does
feet In length around the body; depth
of body will be four-fifths of his height.
The following horse talk is, at least,
iiuciici ueje nuiun uiuiej limn uvu iji -jie
rational and worthy of consideration:
"Suppose you were in the harness, and
I were In the wagon, I had tho whip
and you the traces, what an anient ad
vocate you would be forklndncss to the
irrational caeation'.' Do not let the
blacksmith drive the nail into the quick
when he shoes me. or burn my fetlocks
with a hot tile. Do not mistake the
"dead-eye" that nature put on my fore
leg for a wart; to be exterminated. Do
not cut off my tall short In fly-time.
Keep the north wind out of our stables.
Care for us at some other time than
during epizootics, so that we may sue

friends, our interests are mutual. I am
silent partner in your business. L'uder
my sound hoof is tho diamond of na

Among tho interesting relics of more
than 100 years ago, to do exhibited at
the Centennial Exposition, is the print
ing press at which Benjamin Franklin
worked In London, when a journey
man printer there in 172.V20. The
press has remained in England all these
years, and will be exhibited in Frank
lin's native country for the first time
during the coming summer. Among
tho relics of more modern days is the
plow made on the Daniel Webster farm
at Franklin, New Hampshire, under
tho great Granger, Daniel's, supervisi
on, and partly by Daniel himself, which
is to be sent to the Centennial.
From the Albany Democrat we learn
that a civil engineer has been engaged
to mark out a town at Smith's Ferry
on tho north fork of the Santiam. There
is not a prettier or more lovely snot in
Oregon for n summer report or site for
maiiulactories, and as it lies at tho com
mencement of the route over the MInto
pass, it may yet be a town of consider
able importance. We learn that the
name of the new town will probably be
called "Weatherford," in honor of
J.W. Weatherford, Esq., of Salem.who
last year bought property there for a
summer residenco in anticipation of
that locality being selected at some
futuro day for a post town ami rural
village.
A correspondent of the lit porter says:
"Amity has had a proposition to extend
tho O. C.,It. R. on to that place, and
they liaYo accepted the terms and now
wo aro going to have a railroad at last.
There is no section of country that
needs it worse than this vicinity. The
time occupied in hauling off tho hun
dreds of thousands of bushels of grain
hero in the fall of tho year may now
be occupied in putting in fall grain,
besides the business of the road will be
doubled by this short extension.' There
will bo in the vicinity of a half a mil
lion bushels of grain to ship from this
point, besides the other products of this
agricultural region."

There is a famous tisage in the
writings of Itousseau, that great de
lineator of tho human heart, which is
as true to human nature as it is true
and beautiful in expression. Ho says:
"Were I in a desert. I would find some,
thing to call forth my affections. If I
could do no better, 1 would fasten them
upon some melancholy cypress. I
would write my name upon them, and
dodaro that they wore tho sweotost
trees in all tho wilderness. If their
loaves withered, I would teach myself
to mourn, and when they rejoiced, I
would rejoice with them.
A niaro thirty-three years old is In
daily uso In Baltimore. She is so well
preserved that four or five years agn a
conuois.sour in horse-flesh made a sur
vey of her points, more particularly
subjecting her teeth to a careful scruti
ny, aud then sagely announced that slut
was Just four years of age. He also
offered to break her for a moderate
compensation.
Tho most easy way of keeping hums
perfectly is to wrap and tie them in
paper, and pack them in boxes or bar
rels with ashes. The ashes must fill all
interstices, but must not touch the
hams, as it absorbs the fat It keeps
them sweet, aud protects from all kinds
of Insects.

'I ho J,nlcrprw mys: Itoiii all P'Jits,
of Clackamas county ;wc are receiving
the gratifying intelligence that tho fall
grain has never looked bettor within
the memory of the oldest settlers. The
fine Weather that We at present are!
enjoying is also a godsend for the far
mers and they are taKing luivuumgu ui
it; the plow and harrow arc running in
every direction, nnd a fair spring crop
will probably be put in. The farmers of
Clackamas county intend to keep their
wen deserved reputation ior ruiswu
good crops.
The residents of Upper, Molalla nnd
vicinity, Clackamas county, aro making
arrangements to celebrate tho forth
coming Centennial anniversary in
grand style. One of tho principal fea
tures of jho day Is to be an old-fashioned
barbecue. The site selected for the
occasion is tho spring between the
Molalla bridge and Wright's house.
Col. Geo. K. Shiel, of Salem, and Mr.
C. F. Beatie, of Oregon City, two well
known speakers, aro expected to speak
on this "glorious occasion."
In pursuance of a call for the shcep
raiseis of Wasco eountv to meet in
convention on Monday, the 5th day of
May, to deliberate on the feasibility of
organizing a wool-growers' association
for the promotion of the wool-growing
interests ot Eastern Oresron. which has
become onu of the leading industries of
ims portion 01 our nouriiiiug ouuc, .
good representation was present.
Messrs. Floyd, Wclle3 and Dufur were
appointed to frame a constitution aud
by-laws for the government of an asso
ciation, to report at lue next meeting.
The Antoriun or the Sth says: Mr.
Elnberger caught ninety fish at one
drift, last Friday night, and on taking
up his net found six docks in it, which
had become entangled in the meshes
while diving and were drowned, s0
.says a fisherman, Wilson captured H'O
fine salmon last night, for Kinney's
llshery; 1,150 fish were taken in at that
fishery before noon to-day, and they
were numbered by hundreds at all
other lisherics along the river, so far as
heard from.
A letter from Stevens county, W. T ,
dated May 1st, says: "There is still
considerable snow in tho mountains,
nearly or quite as much as there was
four weeks ag.. We aro having a
great deal of rain. Grass Is excellent;
nearly all the grain is sown, and much
more than over before. There are
quite a number of persons looking
around for locations, and most of them
talk ns though tltey were well, pleased
with the country, ami tho only fault
found is tho lack of market. "
The lust great storm which swept
over Colorado and adjoining Territo
ries "was very disastrous to herds in
the sparsely settled parts of New Mexi
co. In the vicinity of Las Cruees and
Las Vegas the storm was terrific, and
sheep perished by thousands. One
man lost 750 head out or a herd of .'1,000,
and others suffered in the same projKir
tion. It is the most disastrous blow
that the sheep Interests of New Mexico
have sustained for years.
The Owyhee Acutaiicic says: A
chunk of rock weighing over one hun
dred pounds was taken from the win.o
in the Maggio mine nt Francodl City a
few days ago. It boars evidence of
being unusually rich, abounding in
streaks that will assay from three to
four thousand dollars to tho ton in sil
ver. Parts of it aro almost solid sliver,
and it is said to be ono of tho richest
specimens that has yet come to tho
surface in Owyhco.
Tho man reported to have boon
killed by Deputy Sheriff Hawk during
the recent outbreak nt tho Steilacoom
penitentiary, was only dangerously
wounded and is fast recovering. The
last one of tho escaping prisoners has
been recaptured, so all they gained was
some severe wouu'ds and bruises anil
additional Irons and more severe dis
cipline. This chap was Iroin Derby Ind. He
Imught a $2 accordion, and was sitting
on the levee pumping "Mollle Darling"
out of it when the goat came along.
The music stopped, tho man fell, and
the accordion looked like an elephant
had tramped on it. Goats, aa a general
thing, don't like to hear music that has
to be squeezed out of a snutf box.
Tilton B. Scott aud John W. Miller
were arrested ut Boise City a short
time ago as tho parties who have been
robbing the stage in that vicinity late
ly. They wore held to anwer In the
sum of $3,000 each, and in default ol
which they were committed to jail.
A story is told of n venerable negro
in Iowa who was on trial for an offense
against tho State- When the case
was announced In Court, "The State of
iowii versus sumpsou uesar," The agea
African exclaimed: "What! de whole
State of Iowa agin, d is chile! Den I sur
